Noida Extension: Payment plan dilemma, real area confusion.

Noida Extension – trying to figure out the real value here. I'm looking at 2BHKs, around 75-85L, mostly near Sector 135. For an investor like me, the payment plans are confusing. Gaurs Group offers construction-linked, but some deals push for more upfront. Is CLP always smarter for ROI, considering potential delays? My capital gets tied up for longer, right? Also, the super area vs. carpet area difference is wild. Saw a 1200 sqft super area that felt barely 800 carpet. How much do builders inflate this? Should I only look at carpet area? Has anyone successfully negotiated down PLC charges on these?
