As reported in Property Pluse

Mumbai’s central railway suburbs will get a large five star hotel soon. Acron Hospitality is planning to open a luxury hotel with 225 rooms at an estimated cost of around Rs 200 crore in Chembur.

So far all the five star hotels have come up around Mumbai’s western railway lines such as the Churchgate or Nariman Point area in South Mumbai, Parel or Worli in Central Mumbai, Bandra West and East and in Andheri, which is close to the airport.

John Britto, director, Acron Hospitality said, “The hotel will have conferencing and meeting facilities. The investment in the project, including land cost is likely to be between Rs 180 crore and Rs 200 crore.” Britto said the company has got all the necessary approvals from the government and work on the project is expected to begin this year.

The company is in talks with various banks and financial institutions for raising funds for its projects. It aims to keep the debt-equity ratio at 1.5:1 for the Mumbai project.

Acron Hospitality is likely to enter into a management contract with Fortune Park Hotels, a wholly owned subsidiary of ITC Group to manage the Chembur hotel on its behalf.

Acron is also looking at constructing serviced apartments and villas in Puducherry, Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Karnataka. “We might again tie-up with Fortune Park Hotels for managing these serviced apartments,” Britto said.

If all goes well in the coming months, a huge chunk of land, nearly 340 acres, is likely to be up for grabs in the densely populated eastern suburb of Chembur. According to reports, the state-run HPCL, which is currently based in Chembur, has decided to shift its base
to Ratnagiri.

This move will open up 340 acres of land, which can accommodate up to four amusement parks like Esselworld or 15 Oval maidans. However, if the land is used for housing and construction it can generate between 60,000 and 2.7 lakh houses.

All in all, the residents are finally breathing a sigh of relief. “It will definitely be a boon for Chembur, as this area had turned into a gas chamber. If this space comes up we will have enough room for development and an open space to breathe easy,” said Dr Vijay Sangole, a resident.

“Any industry moving out of the city is a welcome move, as it will reduce pollution. We hope some land will come up for recreational activities,” added M Deobhakta, another resident.

However, the MPCB claims that the government-run HPCL doesn’t pollute the environment, as the effluents released by the company are under the norms. But it will surely mean that the air will be more hygienic.

Railway tickets would henceforth be available at post offices in Mumbai . To begin with, this facility has been introduced at four post offices, namely Girgaon, Dadar, Chembur and Mandvi in the metropolis.

Union minister of state for communications and IT, Gurudas Kamat , launched the railway reservation system for providing tickets at four post offices in Mumbai on Monday.

“The project would not only reduce the queues at railway stations but also reduce load at railway centres,” Kamat said.

Chief post master general M S Bali hoped that the facility would generate additional revenue for the Posts.

Union railway minister Mamata Banerjeehad announced the initiative during the budget last year to make the facility available in 500 post offices across the country.

The facility would soon be extended to as many as 103 other post offices, he added.

As reported in www.expressindia.com  on Jan 06, 2010

Over the last four days, the Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA) has sold around 2 lakh application forms to hopeful homebuyers for its 3,449 new flats. The flats will given out through a draw of lots in the first week of April.

The response is, however, feeble as compared to the overwhelming response received last year when the sale of forms had crossed 1.80 lakh in the first two days. At the time of the lottery, there were 4.33 lakh aspirants for the 3,863 flats with people jostled in serpentine queues daily to collect forms from the15 branches of HDFC.

This time the forms will be available at 75 branches of the Saraswat Co-operative Bank in Mumbai, Thane and Navi Mumbai throught the day.

MHADA officials attribute the reason for the relatively lukewarm response to the fact that 80 per cent of the flats available are for the Economically Weaker Sections (EWS) and Lower Income Groups (LIG) category. Only very few flats are available in the one and two bedroom categories for the middle (MIG) and high income groups (HIG). Reservations for various categories have further reduced the flats available to half. For instance, of the 150 two-bedroom flats in Versova, only 77 are for the general public.

Besides Versova, the flats are available in Mankhurd, Malvani, Dahisar and Powai with the largest sized flats being three 1114 sq ft row houses at Dindoshi in Malad. “Also, this time to avoid facing flak after the allotment of flats, we have clarified that there would be no water available in the flats until 2011 owing to water cut imposed by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC). This might have also deterred many from applying for flats,” said a MHADA official.The last date for buying the forms is January 21.

Here’s some New Year cheer for railway commuters from Chembur, Govandi and Mankhurd. The Central Railway (CR) expects to run 12-coach trains on the Harbour line in the next six months. Work has already begun to extend the platforms at several stations including Vashi, Mankhurd and Chembur.

Says T Pai, commuter from Chembur, “It would be a great relief to all of us as the trains are really overcrowded in the morning and evening. We have been long writing to the railways to increase the services and the number of coaches in the trains. We hope that they should complete the work on schedule and not delay further.”
