Chandigarh New Launch Projects: My reality check?
Just moved into my 2BHK in a New Launch Project near Mullanpur last month, and honestly, it's not what the brochure promised. Possession was in March, but the finishing is so shoddy. Builder ne electricity connection ke liye extra charges maange, which were never disclosed. Water supply ka bhi issue hai. I paid 78L for this, thinking it's a good investment in a new project, but ab lag raha hai kya value mili. Matlab, these 'New Launch Projects' look great on paper, but ground reality is something else. Market mein toh prices up dikhte hain, par yeh hidden costs aur quality issues kaun dekhta hai? Should I have waited for a ready-to-move-in? Anyone else facing such hidden costs or quality issues after moving into their new launch flat? What did you do?

Oh god, this is my biggest fear! I'm looking at projects in New Chandigarh and Mullanpur too. 78L for this kind of experience is just heartbreaking. Is this common with new launches in general, or just a few bad apples?
Totally agree with you! My cousin bought a flat in Saini Majra, same story. Builder delayed possession by 8 months and then asked for 'development charges' that were never in the agreement. So yeah, I think it's quite common these days, not
