NCR/Delhi property rates peaked !

 Residential demand, not pricing, will drive growth

 Money Matters, Livemint, 9 Dec 10

We recently visited Delhi-National Capital Region (NCR), Bangalore, and Mumbai as a part of our GS India Property Tour. We visited about 25 sites at various stages of completion, met management teams and property consultants and made some broad industry-wide observations.

As we had highlighted in our 8 November report, we believe that property prices in pockets of Delhi-NCR and Mumbai in particular seem to have peaked, and we expect limited further price appreciation. Prices in Bangalore have remained fairly stable, but further appreciation should be held in check by high supply potential. We observed higher price inflation in city-centre properties during our tour.

Delhi-Agra Highway (NH2): Wide amd Signal free soon

Reliance Infra’s Delhi-Agra road upgrade still in cul-de-sac

Published: Thursday, Oct 6, 2011, 8:00 IST
By Ashutosh Kumar | Place: New Delhi | Agency: DNA

Reliance Infrastructure’s Rs1,928 crore national highway upgrade project between Delhi and Agra has been stuck over clearance from the Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF) for more than a year now – a development that is likely to lead to cost escalation in the project.

The 180 km project spanning Haryana and Uttar Pradesh is part of the Phase Five of the National Highways Development Programme, which envisages expansion to six-laning of 6,500 km of highway network.

The phase assumes significance as upgrade of the entire golden quadrilateral (5,846 km) to six-lane standards is a part of it.

Reliance Infrastructure bagged the project from the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) in May 2010. The company, however, has still not been able to start construction on the road.

The project is being developed on a build, operate and transfer (BoT), toll basis. Analysts, on conditions of anonymity, peg the cost escalation at round 10% as of now.

Chat with Metro Man: E Sreedharan, MD-DMRCL

'A PPP model for a metro has never succeeded anywhere in the world'

By The Financial Express, 21/11/2010

'A PPP model for a metro has never succeeded anywhere in the world'

E Sreedharan, Managing Director of the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation, is the man credited with changing the way Delhi travels. In this Idea Exchange moderated by Executive Editor Unni Rajen Shanker, Sreedharan speaks of how the Metro kept its deadlines and his earlier assignment with Konkan Railways

Unni Rajen Shanker: When you look back at your stint with the Konkan Railways project and now the Delhi Metro, which was a tougher assignment and why?

The tougher and more challenging is Delhi Metro. With Konkan Railways, the main challenge was the length of the line: it passes through four states, a lot of reserved forest land and the most unfriendly, undulating terrain. The other challenge was raising funds. The government had given us one-third of the cost of the project, two-thirds had to be raised from the open market. At that time, the condition of the capital market was very poor, and raising money was very difficult. We could not raise money within the country and had to go to countries such as England, Japan and Korea to raise funds.

For Delhi Metro, money was not a problem. The problem was that it is the capital; whatever we do is directly under the gaze of the people in power?President, Prime Minister, Lt Governor, Chief Minister?everybody is aware of what we do. People here are educated, they are exposed to what other cities, countries have achieved. So expectations are very high. Also, we have to work with the least inconvenience or disturbance to the public. The technology for the Metro is highly complex. It is four times more complicated than railway technology. And tight targets had to be met; in the second phase, the target was the Commonwealth Games.
