Pros and cons
Arvind Forreste
Pros
- The floor plans publish the RERA carpet area for every villa design alongside the quoted size, which is rare on a villa scheme and lets a buyer see exactly what is being paid for before signing.
- The gap between RERA carpet and quoted area is verandah, balcony and open terrace, all of it usable floor, and it runs between thirteen and twenty nine per cent rather than the forty five to sixty per cent an apartment super built-up quote would carry.
- Five designs across studio, one, two, three and four bedrooms give an unusually wide entry range for a villa estate, so a weekend cabin and a full family house sit in the same community.
- Around eighty per cent of the 110 acres is kept open, and the landscape is the structure of the scheme rather than a strip between rows of houses.
Cons
- Khatraj is roughly thirty kilometres from central Ahmedabad, so this is a weekend and second home address rather than a daily commute base.
- The estate is registered in phases under two different taluka jurisdictions, Gandhinagar and Kalol, with separate certificates. A villa has to be matched to the correct phase before its registration means anything.
- The revenue address falls in Gandhinagar district and approvals run through the Ahmedabad Urban Development Authority, even though the estate is marketed as Ahmedabad. Registration and stamp duty follow the revenue address.
- A villa price includes the plot under and around the house, so a rate per square foot of carpet is not comparable with an apartment quote and should not be used that way.
Arvind Uplands
Pros
- The villa is built and delivered rather than sold as bare land, so the buyer takes possession of a finished Woods Bagot designed bungalow instead of taking on a construction project.
- Parts of the estate are already lived in. The roads, the landscape, the lakes and the club are functioning rather than proposed, which is a level of evidence very few villa townships in Gujarat can offer.
- Every phase carries its own GujRERA registration and all three certificates are published, so a buyer can verify the exact phase, promoter, villa count and validity date before signing.
- The club is unusually large for a residential estate: thirteen five star suites, a banquet hall for five hundred, a party lawn for another five hundred, a theatre, a discotheque, a spa, a library and a full sports complement.
Cons
- The GujRERA certificate for Uplands One names the promoter as Ahmedabad East Infrastructure LLP rather than Arvind SmartSpaces Limited. Uplands Two and Three are registered by Arvind SmartSpaces Limited. Diligence has to follow the entity on the certificate for the phase being bought.
- The three phases carry three different registration numbers and three different validity dates, running to June 2024, June 2026 and May 2031. A villa has to be matched to the right phase before any of those dates mean anything.
- The revenue address falls in Nasmed and Adhana villages, Kalol taluka, Gandhinagar district, even though the estate is marketed as Ahmedabad. Registration, stamp duty and local body dealings follow the revenue address.
- Villa sizes are quoted as land area rather than built up area, so the ticket cannot be compared against an apartment rate per square foot without asking for the constructed area separately.
