The below excerpt from the comments posted by one of our reader. Please confirm the same:
This is the email I received from DLF…..As per my ABA, I should have received the possession by August 2012.
And as per the email it says August 2013….So exactly 1 year delay.
Dear Customer,Greetings from DLF.
We take this opportunity to thank you for making our maiden project in Bangalore – ‘Westend Heights’ a huge success. As of now, the overall project stands sold out except for 2 units.
We are uploading the photos in our website that show the construction progress, every month. Hope you are going through the same and getting yourself updated.
We were earlier planning to hand over the apartments starting from August 2012. The exact dates of handing over of apartments are based on the Apartment Buyer’s Agreement (ABA) signing date and hence would be different for each customer.
We are pleased to inform you that we hope to get the approval for the development of the civic amenities area (CA area) from the Bangalore Development Authority (BDA) by 1st week of July, post which we will commence the construction of Club house.
As you are aware, we had taken various steps to speed up the construction of your apartments. We had a detailed review and based on the present speed of construction, we feel that we will start handing over apartments starting August 2013, subject to signing of occupancy certificate (OC) by the concerned Govt. authorities.
We want to share the revised date so that all our esteemed customers can plan their shifting into their new homes.
We will keep updating our web site as we keep progressing on the construction.
Thank you
With Regards
DLF Southern Homes
Bangalore.

Hi Raj,
As far as i remember, before i made the booking for the flat, it was clearly told to me that it is 3 years from the booking. However they hadn’t mentioned when they would be repaying… BBMP Approval is not considered here. For whatever the payment pending from DLF end, they always make this statement, it would be adjusted in the last. So they enjoy the benefit of interest with this money too till then!
April 7, 2012 at 12:15 am
@kumar – i am not that concerned about interest per se. expecting that kind of thing from builders would be an overkill. if we manage to get the refund for duration after 3 years from booking, it will be an achievement.

i was disheartened to see that BDA has put a board in DLF site saying 4500 sq mts of DLF land belongs to BDA which was reserved for park. DLF has already announced Villas in that site . Any body has documents of dlf land ownership?. Feel sad to be associated with encroachers like DLF!
[please comment if anybody has information)
April 27, 2012 at 9:39 pm
dont be disheartened. its not dlf but the “government agencies” who need to felt sorry at. i am sure once these agencies get their “cut”, everything will be ok. this is what happened during dlf westend heights approval. one feels sorry at the way these agencies operate.
April 28, 2012 at 8:29 pm
Mr anuj , Thanks
but the fact remains that DLF has encroached public land which was kept for park. If a renowned builder like DLF does so many violations, what about others
I think the authorities will ask for more money to make illegal land legal. this has happened to one our friends who bought an apartment in Shobha.
May 20, 2012 at 6:16 am
Hi Sir,
This latest notice in BDA site claiming 4500sq mts DLF land as park area, is it for West end heights(BTM) or maiden heights(E.City)?
May 20, 2012 at 7:14 pm
westendheights
May 21, 2012 at 5:05 am
Hi sir,
If it is westend heights could you please point the source of information BDA link/DLF link that has this notice. What might be the implications for those who had already bought a unit there?
Thank you
May 21, 2012 at 5:49 pm
hi arav,
Its at the site area right in front of the model flat is the board.Its exactly the place where villas are proposed.DLF has cleverly raised the walls in
front of model flat so that that board cannot be seen.I will note down the notification number next time when i visit the site. I feel bad because even I have bought a flat in westend heights.
May 22, 2012 at 5:02 am
Thank you DrShankar,
One of my relatives had purchased a 4th floor apartment there. Is the notification affecting the villas or partially completed 18 storied apartments?
Regards
Arav
April 25, 2012 at 4:31 am
Looks like DLF has posted April photos. Same March photos have been uploaded for April as well. Any ideas why?
April 25, 2012 at 9:58 pm
Is the possession still going to be Q3 2012 as claimed in FAQ section of the dlf website . can anyone from DLF respond please.
April 26, 2012 at 2:23 am
I checked the photos today and they have updated April photos. Pace looks impressive.
April 27, 2012 at 2:22 am
One of my friends was telling DLF is quoting 3600/sqft for the few flats remaining. Is this true?
May 5, 2012 at 7:19 am
A DLF person on site told me that possession is June 2013 not dec 2012. I suspect the project will be completed only by 2013 dec

May 22, 2012 at 7:10 am
Arav , even I have bought a flat in 17 floor. My guess is it may not affect the flats. But You never know these builders. One of my client in BDA told me that more than(!) 90% builders do one or other serious irregularity
> If a renowned builder like DLF does this, Cant even imagine about small ones . Anyway I am crossing my fingers and left everything to fate and god. Some relief as I am not alone ,Nearly 2000 of them are with me.
May 22, 2012 at 8:45 pm
Hi All,
I have 3BHK + 3T at 4500 base price, if anyone interested write me at shrikant2k@gmail.com.
Thanks
Shrikant
May 23, 2012 at 2:05 am
Shrikant
why are you quoting 4500 ? DLF faq section maintains 3500
May 23, 2012 at 2:09 am
Sar,
DLF have sold all flats and have left with them only 2BHK 2 flats, They are about to launch Villa and which would expect to brought the base price at above 5000 in coming six-nine months.
Currently all resale flats are being quoted around 4200-4500.
Thanks
Shrikant
May 24, 2012 at 12:58 am
Hi Sar,
You can probably check with Affinity consultants if they have flats from their end if in case you are still looking to buy flats at DLF WH. They sometimes do the resale of flats.
Regards,
Kumar
May 24, 2012 at 4:29 am
I agree, prices around Meenakshi mall, Hulimavu, Arakere have really gone up in the past 1 year selling at more than Rs. 5000/sft for normal Appts alone.

Hi
I have a 3bhk + 3T at DLF Westend heights ( 1585 sqft in block A2 , 11th floor overlooking club house and amenities. I am visiting India for a week next Monday (may 28th) and would like to sell the flat ASAP. Please email to glmohan4@yahoo.co.uk or call 00447527476379 (UK). From Tuesday I am available on 8495857334. I need to sell so only genuine buyers only. No brokers please.
May 28, 2012 at 12:24 pm
What is the expected time of completion?
There are so many things to be constructed(hospital, shopping center, swimming pool etc.) even after construction of all the floors(which is not yet done).
DLF website says 3rd quarter of 2012. I don’t see how they can deliver by end of September???
Does anybody have any idea on realistic date?
May 28, 2012 at 12:51 pm
Minimum delay time in any real estate project in India varies between 6 to 18 months.Just add this factor to the promised date.
May 29, 2012 at 11:34 am
@Srib,
Thanks for your comment.
) news, he/she could provide more insight.
But 6 to 18 months is just a very high range and a generalized one.
I was looking for an answer which is decently close(I understand that it can’t be pin-pointedly accurate). If somebody knows someone in DLF and has some (insider??
Somebody please?
May 31, 2012 at 2:05 am
@Monu,
Y’day i had discussion with a DLF CS guy.He told me that the current expected delivery date of my apartment in tower A7 is end of Q1 2013.
May 31, 2012 at 2:15 am
HI Srib,
Thank you for the update.
If you have any other information, keep updating it here.
Thanks,
Krishna
May 31, 2012 at 2:52 am
I doubt whether , they would be able o deliver by Q1 of 2013. I expect it to be around 4 of 2013

Appreciate for taking time to query DLF guys.
Let’s hope, we all get our flats with minimal delay.

Hello Pal,
Is this for the specific block or the entire project itself not yet completed.
Thanks,
Krishna
May 31, 2012 at 6:47 am
I received the same letter by email that the pocession will be by August 2013, one year delay from promised date, that too subject to signing of occupancy certificate from concerned Govt. authority. Judging by the track record of Govt. authorities, one can assume indefinete delay unless DLF pays through their nose and satisfy the authorities.

May 31, 2012 at 7:24 am
Yeah, I also got the same mail. Also, they haven’t got the BDA approval for club-house construction.
I believe getting BDA approval is easier than BBMP but still DLF should have got the approval in the beginning itself because they knew that they wanted to provide Club House. Isn’t it?
What if BDA approval takes 6 months time!
What’s the point in doing all the construction, not knowing whether/when approval for club-house will be granted!!!
Only God knows how many other approvals are still pending?
Thoroughly disappointed…
June 4, 2012 at 7:10 am
This is really shocking to know the delay of 1 year. Guys lets meet up and ask them as a group. It is nowhere our problem that they have delayed the project by one year remem they had done absolutely nothing in the first one year. The DLF marketing folks had told me earlier sir do you think if we delay the project by one year we can pay 3500(just a figure)*2000 = 70 lakhs rent per month. Now what will they say.
June 4, 2012 at 7:43 pm
Absolutely preposterous action by DLF. When We spoke to DLF, their representative said that “didn’t you anticipate the delay?” “weren’t you aware that we did not have the approvals while booking the apartment”? They are conveniently passing the buck to BDA. We, as home owners have already paid almost 85% of the entire project cost and it hurts us to see this issue cropping up now.
June 5, 2012 at 2:45 am
I thought that we had all the approvals in place and that’s what the emails said we have all these approvals…now what approvals is DLF talking about…can someone explain?Yes we knew the approvals were not there when booking but I thought they were all in place after some months….
June 7, 2012 at 5:23 am
there is no question of approval. I studied my ABA document again. Only the land on which the apartment complexes i.e ABCDE blocks belong to DLF , the rest i.e club house, civic amenities , villas all belong to BDA. These people might have thought they will denotify that land when Yeddyurappa was CM. But now that is very difficult because he has lost his chair because of denotification. As I posted earlier that land belongs to BDA meant for park. Even now & even today BDA has put a board regarding that in the above said area and fenced it too. Anybody can see that board whenever you visit that site again. DLF has to answer lot of questions .
June 7, 2012 at 10:03 pm
Friends, I guess all of you are over worrying. As you may know this locality 2 main Builders have started (Hiranandani and DLF) and both have first time came to south, I am sure they would live to expectation. Though there is some delay (say 6 months) but that is mainly due to work was stopped for 3 months due to some accident.
So my view is be calm and am sure all would get a decent return on their investments.
June 7, 2012 at 11:31 am
Hi Friends,
Have really guys invested in this project?
Just look at the delivery schedules of other projects.Situation is almost same.
Just keep some patience and pray to the god to protect our investments & for early delivery.

June 11, 2012 at 5:57 am
@Srib the problem with other builders and with DLF are two different things he is able to make the apartemnts in time but hes asking more time for approval which actually we thought were in place until this mail came . @shrikant I think you are right probably BDA wants more money we all know how BDA did a drama in newspapers aginst DLF 3 years back and things started rolling after some months…
June 17, 2012 at 4:38 am
@Rahul Firstly, It was not the BDA that did drama. It was BBMP.
Secondly, BBMP could do drama because DLF allowed it. If DLF had all the approvals, why would BBMP do the drama?
Also, it is not as if DLF had all the approvals and BDA suddenly started the drama.
DLF should have had all the approvals in the first place.
What if approvals just don’t come? All the people who invested in DLF would have to wait further, apart from the current wait.
June 17, 2012 at 4:49 am
I just went to the FAQ section on DLF’s website for the wesend heights project and it says…
Have all the government permissions been taken?
All necessary approvals from Govt bodies / statutory authorities are obtained for Phase 1.
Does it mean that this new “required BDA approval” is obtained or is it misleading info?
June 17, 2012 at 7:30 pm
Hello Monu,
Thank you for sharing the details. Have you bought the apartment in the project? Did they handover anything to the customers or still the entire project itself pending for the possession?
Thanks,
Krishna
June 18, 2012 at 1:56 am
@krishnas, yes I have bought an apartment there.
It’s not even fully constructed so no possession.
June 18, 2012 at 2:53 am
Hello Monu,
Thank you for the reply.
Any one of the customer got the possession or all the customers are waiting for the possession.
Thanks,
Krishna
June 19, 2012 at 5:01 am
Nobody got the possession.
June 19, 2012 at 6:07 am
Hello Monu,
Thank you for the reply.
How many floors they have completed?
Why the delay for completing the construction?
Thanks,

As to why the delay, you have to follow the updates going on in this page.
June 19, 2012 at 5:11 pm
Hello Monu,
Thank you for keep updating. Yes. I have visited their website. We can not get any update from their website.
Thanks,
Krishna
June 20, 2012 at 6:44 am
why they don’t update a new photos in the month of june Construction Updates?
June 20, 2012 at 12:36 pm
They have uploaded the photos for the month of June.
June 21, 2012 at 4:35 pm
DLF keep asking payment by Payment, does any body have flat A4 tower? Did they complete the terrace floor slab already? Any body got demand note for terrace floor slab?
July 3, 2012 at 2:27 am
It is sure that the delivery will start only after Dec 2013. Because in a similar project in Chennai, they have already delayed by one and half year. The floors were constructed 18 months back and still customers are waiting to get occupancy certificate. Also, has anyone read the clause relating to the owenership of the open space lands? It seems the same will remain property of the builder and they can use the same for any commercial purpose on a later date. Further the flat owenrs get only undivided share in the footprint of the tower in which the flat is located (only the land are covered by the base of a tower). The same is very different from other builders where the flat owners generally get undivided share in the entire project land.
July 3, 2012 at 11:26 pm
@Monu You have brought forward a valid point by listng the FAQ in which they say all approvals are got then what is this new BDA approval being brought forward now, why did they not inform us before…Also they have asked me to make the next payment for 17th fllor slab for B4 block…..I am going to call them and ask about the rent which they are supposed to pay for rentals and about BDA approval if someone else has given them a call please share so I can have additional input on the call..
July 3, 2012 at 11:29 pm
Also its all a money game…BBMP first created problem and then they kept silent probably because they were paid up(correct me if I am wrong)….Even BBMP/BDA had created problems to Prestige Silver Oak villas in whitefield but now the construction is in full swing again probably they were paid of…So DLF will pay up BDA again probably…
July 11, 2012 at 11:28 pm
Hi All,
How much is the resale price which is going on for a 1360 sq.ft flat in DLF westend heights?
Thanks in advance.
July 12, 2012 at 9:42 pm
why are we not getting correct updates on construction, and hand-off flats to vendors, is there no one from Bangalore visiting the construction place and post details, that would be kind enough for the visitors of this site, instead only assuming things.
July 12, 2012 at 10:37 pm
Hi All,
I think it is better all flat owners of DLF westend heights form a group and plan to meet at their Brunton road office. We need to only enquire in this manner, going individually won’t work. Can v all plan on one of the weekends on saturday or sometime? Kindly let me know your thoughts plz?
Thanks,
Kumar
July 16, 2012 at 11:14 pm
I want to know price for resale my flat….But it seems price got stuck..is there any problem in that area or with DLF. If somebody can update on that it will be helpful.. As i am abroad I do not have much info. Is basic price below 3400/sq Ft ?
July 18, 2012 at 11:16 am
one of my friend would like to flat in DLF. Is it advisable to buy it after looking all these associated probs?
