Moved into Lal Bagh, the hidden costs hit hard
Okay I'll be honest — I completely underestimated how confusing this process is. Just moved into my 2BHK from Chaudhary Realtors in Lal Bagh last month. The advertised price was ₹1.8Cr, but man, the *final* cost was a shocker. Nobody really talks about stamp duty and registration charges enough, do they? That added a solid 6% on top, which was a huge chunk I hadn't properly budgeted for. Then there's the PLC for a good floor and parking. It all snowballs so fast. My neighbor told me about negotiating a spot discount on the base price, but I didn't push hard enough. What are your tips for getting builders to budge on these 'fixed' charges like PLC or even just the base price? Would love to know if people actually save big on stamp duty somehow.
