Moonglade Apartments

Moonglade Apartments stands in Manchirevula, next to Kokapet on the western side of Hyderabad, pincode 500075. The published address is a map code rather than a street, so ask the developer for the road name and a pin before you visit.

No distances to offices, schools, hospitals or the airport have been published, so we quote none here. With handover due from late 2029, test the routes you will actually use. Drive from the site to your workplace at your normal hour, time it, and make the return trip in the evening peak. Parents should also time the school run.

The area around Kokapet is still filling in, and the roads and shops near the site will change before handover. Note what exists today and ask what road work is planned nearby. Inside the campus, the planned clinic, pharmacy, retail spaces and cafe could cover many small needs without the car.

About 2,400 households in seven towers will create heavy traffic at the gates in the morning and evening. Ask how the entries and exits are laid out, how many parking bays come with each home and where visitors will park.

Moonglade Apartments offers eleven plans, all quoted as built-up area. The 3 BHK homes come in eight sizes: about 1,400 sq ft from Rs. 1.5 Crore, 1,670 sq ft from Rs. 1.78 Crore, 1,835 sq ft from Rs. 1.96 Crore and 2,050 sq ft from Rs. 2.19 Crore. Larger ones are about 2,100, 2,320, 2,740 and 3,045 sq ft, from Rs. 2.24 Crore to Rs. 3.25 Crore. The 4 BHK homes are about 3,535, 3,550 and 3,950 sq ft, from Rs. 3.77 Crore to Rs. 4.21 Crore.

Each plan comes to about Rs. 10,700 per sq ft at its entry figure. In a 40-floor tower the floor you pick will change the price, so ask for unit-wise rates. Carpet areas have not been published.

The homes are under construction, so GST is charged on the construction portion. Stamp duty and registration are payable on every purchase. Ask for a cost sheet listing:

• Base price and the area it is charged on
• Floor-rise and facing premiums
• Car parking and the number of bays
• Clubhouse membership and maintenance deposit
• GST as a separate line
• Stamp duty and registration

Moonglade Apartments has no RERA registration number published yet. Ask E-Infra and IRA Realty for it and check it on the Telangana RERA portal (TS-RERA) before you pay a booking amount. A project of seven towers may be registered in phases, so confirm that your tower is covered and note its declared completion date.

At this stage, ask for:

• The RERA registration certificate for your phase
• Sanctioned building plan for your tower, with the height approval
• Title documents and an encumbrance certificate for the 14 acres
• The development agreement, since two companies are building it
• An allotment letter naming your tower, floor and unit
• A draft agreement for sale with the handover date and a delay penalty

Read how the agreement defines carpet area and what happens if the final area differs. Pay only against construction milestones that you can verify on site or in the quarterly RERA updates.

At handover, collect the occupancy certificate for your tower before taking the keys. Then register the sale deed in your name and transfer the property tax record and the electricity meter to yourself.

Moonglade Apartments is planned as seven high-rise towers, 40 floors at the most, on 14 acres, with about 2,400 homes sharing one set of facilities. The share of land left open has not been published, so ask for the sanctioned site plan and see which towers face the gardens. All images at this stage are renders as planned by the developer.

Most of daily life is stacked into the Starlight clubhouse, planned over eight floors. A morning might start in the gymnasium and end with a swim in the terrace pool. If you work from home, the business centre and the library give you a quiet desk, and the cafe and bar take care of a break.

Parents can leave a toddler at the creche, with the kids' play area close by. Older children have the sports courts and the indoor games areas. The salon and spa suit a slow weekend, the mini theatre covers a family film night, and the multipurpose party area hosts birthdays.

A clinic and a pharmacy are planned inside the campus, with retail spaces for small errands and landscaped gardens for an evening walk. Ask which facilities open with the first handover and what the maintenance charge will be.
