Delhi property negotiation is mostly a waste of time — prove me wrong.

Honestly, the whole negotiation game in Delhi property feels like a myth sometimes. I'm eyeing a 3BHK in Punjabi Bagh, say from The Kings Properties, around ₹2.5 Cr. From my experience, builders barely budge, maybe 1-2% max. Is it even worth pushing hard for more, ya know, for a better ROI? Secondary market mein toh phir bhi thoda scope hota hai, but new projects? Lagta hai they just quote a fixed price. My main concern is maximizing deal value. Also, for investors, what's smarter: construction-linked payment plans or a higher upfront down payment for a potential bulk discount? I've seen both pros and cons. What's the community's real-world take on negotiation leverage in Delhi, especially comparing new builds to resale opportunities?
