Pune witnesses increasing demand for student housing

Friday, December 14th, 2012

The residential market demand is increasing in India because of the availability of good educational facilities. The heavy student population is definitely going to increase the demand for residential spaces as educational institutions lend value to a location.

Real Estate in Pune is known to be booming in recent times as the city houses the knowledge hub and provides quality educational institutions. Many other educational institutions are planning to make entry or expand their branches in Pune.

The city has also attracted many people to reside here for its historical importance as well. Many families want to stay in Pune because of the availability and accessibility of various colleges and schools. Some reputed builders in Pune are in search of plots from where transportation is easy to educational institutes.

Recently, the city has observed a rise in the educational institutes which also has helped to increase the demand in the 2 and 3 bhk house in Pune. Compared to the other parts of the city, the property price is little higher in the area which are located near educational institutions.

After Bangalore and Hyderabad, Pune has been identified as an IT hub. But the premium amount paid by the home buyers in Pune is very less in compared to other metro cities. People who stay in Pune hardly want to shift to any other cities. With the growing trend, real estate builders are expecting to see a demand where families are planning to purchase an apartment for long term investment, this will also help the home buyers in creating an asset for them.

Government To Withdraw Stamp Duty Relaxation of Stock Exchange

Thursday, May 19th, 2011

The finance ministry has noted that the while some of the exchanges like NSE and BSE have taken advantage of the relaxation and demutualised, many others have not done so. To put pressure on the ones that have not yet done so, government has decided to withdraw the stamp duty relaxation available to stock exchanges on demutualisation.

NSE and BSE have taken advantage of the relaxation and demutualised, many others have not done so. The ministry feels putting a sunset clause to Section 8B will put pressure on others to demutualise. The States will also be able to revise periodically the market value guidelines of lands, buildings and various kinds of interests in immovable property for determining the duty chargeable at the time of registration once the bill is passed by Parliament and notified.

The bill has also proposed a new system of levy and collation of stamp duty on transactions relating to securities. Under the new law, states will have the power to increase stamp duty on mining leases if the royalty payments exceed the levels assumed at the time of the lease. Leases are usually for long duration and sometimes extend to about 100 years. States had expressed concerns over losing revenue and had sought additional powers to reassess duty. The new rule will help states get higher revenues from leasing out of mines, a big source of revenue of resource increasingly seen as an important revenue resource for states.
