Godrej Rajendra Nagar

Godrej Rajendra Nagar opens onto the Nehru Outer Ring Road side of Rajendranagar mandal, at Sagar Hills and Manasa Hills, pincode 500030. That puts you on the southwest edge of Hyderabad, with the ring road as the main artery for longer trips across the city. The developer has not published distances to offices, stations, schools or hospitals, so we do not quote any here.

For daily life, the ring road matters most. If your office is reached by the ORR, your commute may be a straight run; if it lies in the older core, expect to leave the ring road and work through city traffic. Time the drive yourself on a weekday morning and again in the evening before you commit.

Six towers of 35 floors will bring a large number of households onto the same approach road once they fill up. Ask the developer where the entry and exit gates will be, how the site connects to the service road, and how many parking bays come with your flat. Walk the surrounding lanes on your visit to see which shops, clinics and schools are already open nearby.

Godrej Rajendra Nagar offers four sizes, all given as built-up area: a 2 BHK of about 1,350 sq ft, a 3 BHK of about 1,600 sq ft, a 3.5 BHK of about 1,850 sq ft and a 4 BHK of about 2,700 sq ft. The half bedroom in the 3.5 BHK usually works as a study or guest room; confirm its size on the plan. Carpet areas have not been released, so ask for them before comparing with other projects.

The only published price is the Rs. 1.1 Crore starting figure. On the 2 BHK that is about Rs. 8,100 per sq ft. In towers of 35 floors, floor level and facing can move the price of the same plan a long way, so ask for the exact figure for the unit you want.

Because the homes are under construction, GST applies on top of the base price. Stamp duty and registration are payable as well. Ask for a cost sheet that lists:

• Base rate and the area it is charged on
• Floor-rise and facing premiums
• Car parking charges and bays included
• Clubhouse, maintenance deposit and utility connection charges
• GST as a separate line
• Stamp duty and registration

Godrej Rajendra Nagar carries Telangana RERA registration P02400009910. Look it up on the TS-RERA portal and check three things. The promoter should be Godrej Properties, the land and address should match your sale, and note the declared completion date. That date, not a brochure line, is what you can hold the developer to.

At this under-construction stage, ask for these before you pay more than a token amount:

• The RERA registration certificate
• The sanctioned building plan, with your tower and floor marked
• Title documents and an encumbrance certificate for the 12 acres
• The draft agreement for sale, with the payment schedule linked to construction milestones
• The possession date and the penalty the developer pays if it slips

If you take a home loan, ask which banks have already approved the project, since that shows the title has been checked by a lender. When handover comes, collect the occupancy certificate for your tower and register the sale deed in your name. Then have the property tax records moved to you with the local body.

Godrej Rajendra Nagar spreads six towers, each rising to 35 floors, over 12 acres. That makes it a vertical community, where the view from your balcony depends far more on your floor than on your tower. The developer has not stated how much of the land is kept open, so ask to see the sanctioned layout and where the towers, courts and gardens will go. Any pictures shown are renders as planned by the developer.

A weekday could begin with a run on the jogging track or a few lengths in the swimming pool before work. Children get a dedicated play area close to home, and the sports courts are there for an evening game once school is over. On a wet afternoon, the indoor games room keeps them busy.

Birthdays, association meetings and small functions can move to the multipurpose halls instead of your living room. The amenity list is short and practical rather than lavish, which may also keep maintenance charges in check. Ask which facilities will be ready at first handover and which will open only once all six towers are complete, and how many lifts each tower will run.
