Buying a house is a dream of most Indians. That’s because in our society, having your own home is the ultimate sign of progress. People who live on rent are frowned up and are consistently pressured by family and friends to get their own house. This pressure to buy a house combined with the astronomical real estate prices in most cities means most people need to take home loans to make this dream a reality. On top of it, most people want to buy the house of their dreams, which means the home loans taken are huge. And with big loans come astronomical interest costs. But what if we told you, there is a way to make your home loan interest free. Don’t believe us? Well, read on to know how.   Home loans cost you an insane amount of money over their lifetime Most banks and housing finance companies highlight the EMI you need to pay for your dream house, making you believe that you can buy that house. And while you might be able to afford the monthly installment, the cost of these loans is massive. In most cases, the interest paid on loan amount for a long-term loan is much higher than the loan amount. So, if you keep paying monthly EMI for 20 years, you end up paying ₹ 86.37 lakhs in total. This ₹46.37 lakhs extra is the interest you pay. Take a moment to think about it – you pay more than what you borrowed as interest plus the actual amount. However, there is no way out to get rid of interest because that’s the way the loan system works. So, does it mean you should not buy a house till the time you don’t have the entire amount? If you can, nothing like it. But for most of us, this might not be a viable option.   The Solution – Recover the interest amount you will pay by investing in mutual funds By starting a SIP of .10% of your home loan amount in a mutual scheme, you recover the interest amount. Let’s continue with the example we mentioned above. If you start a monthly SIP of ₹ 4,000 (0.10% of the loan amount), your investments at a 15% average annual return will grow to a total of ₹ 59.88 lakhs in 20 years. From this corpus, even if you deduct your invested amount, which is ₹ 9.6 lakhs, then also you will have ₹ 50.28 lakhs in your hands which is more than enough to cover the interest you will pay. This calculation holds true no matter what your loan amount is. The Bottomline: If you have taken or are planning to take a loan to buy your dream home, you will have to pay interest costs. But with a small SIP, you can recover the entire amount with ease. You can use tools like SIP Calculator to calculate your estimated returns on investment. However, this will become a reality only if you keep investing that amount and demonstrate patience. To know how you can achieve this, follow this link and enter details on the next page

In the realm of entrepreneurship, some individuals are born with an innate passion and drive to carve their own path, defying conventions and embracing challenges head-on. Mr.Kapil  Gandhi stands as a shining example of such a visionary entrepreneur whose journey from humble beginnings to multifaceted business ventures epitomizes the spirit of resilience, determination, and innovation. It all began after his 12th-grade exams when he embarked on a transformative experience working alongside his cousin, a construction contractor. At the age of 18, for four months during his holidays , Gandhi immersed himself in the world of construction, finding joy in the work and developing a keen interest in the industry. His dedication didn’t waver even as he pursued his engineering degree at Bharati Vidyapeeth. During this time, he completed four projects under his cousin’s guidance, accumulating invaluable experience. By the time he graduated, Gandhi had honed his skills and was ready to chart his own path in the business world. At the young age of 22, he took the leap and founded his contracting company in 2001. Gandhi’s early start served him with a significant advantage, giving him a head start of six to seven years compared to his peers. With a solid foundation of experience behind him, he expanded his horizons, venturing into various businesses, including event management and real estate. His ability to identify promising opportunities and capitalize on them fuelled his success. Despite facing financial challenges, Gandhi remained undeterred. During his time in college, he redirected his focus towards event management and diligently saved up enough funds to kick-start his entrepreneurial journey. Additionally, the support of a generous friend, who provided financial assistance without formal documentation, proved instrumental in overcoming initial hurdles. One of the defining moments in Gandhi’s journey came when he secured a project from Syntel India with a tight deadline of 45 days. Faced with the daunting task of completing the project single-handedly, he momentarily doubted his abilities. However, his mother’s unwavering encouragement and belief in him spurred him on.With determination and resilience, Gandhi not only met but exceeded expectations, delivering the project within 46 days. This achievement served as a turning point, instilling him with newfound confidence and propelling him towards greater success. From that moment onward, he never looked back, embracing each challenge as an opportunity for growth and innovation. Commenting on RERA he said, the construction industry is undergoing a transformative phase marked by enhanced transparency, safety, and swift construction, driven by a new generation of informed, educated, and ethical developers. Supported by organizations like CREDAI, the industry is fast getting organized and regulated by the Govt. Pre-RERA, MahaRERA received complaints against 23% of projects, whereas post-RERA, complaints reduced significantly to 3.5% of projects. In India, with a population of 1.4 billion, housing holds unique socio-economic importance. A transparent & thriving real estate sector not only boosts GDP growth by 6 to 7% but also stands as the country’s second-largest employer after agriculture.  Recognizing the enduring impact of his work on their lives, Gandhi deeply empathizes with his clients. Despite his project involvement lasting only a few years, he values the lifelong commitment clients make through EMIs. He pledges unwavering dedication to maintaining trust in his work, prioritizing quality and safety. While some dismiss emotions in business, Gandhi views them as vital. He stands by his promises, ensuring accountability by seeking alternative solutions if unable to fulfil a task, prioritizing respectful communication with affected individuals. His advice to his 20-year-old self is to emphasize the importance of mastering cash flow management. Additionally, he’d stress the value of seeking a mentor. Not everything can be learned solo, so having a mentor to offer guidance is essential.  His message to the developers, today’s market reflects a significant shift, with 45% of buyers aged 25 to 35 seeking modern amenities due to their global exposure. This transition from a price-driven to a product-driven market underscores the need for developers to understand evolving customer demands. Effective communication among developers, architects, and stakeholders is crucial, facilitated by accurate briefings reflecting deep customer insights. Direct interaction fosters innovative idea exchange, as seen in his Wakad project where an internal school bus stop was added to address nuanced needs, enhancing project quality & appeal. Today, Gandhi is actively involved in strategic investments across various businesses, including leasing commercial and retail properties, real estate development, land trading, plotting and organic farming. His journey exemplifies the importance of perseverance, seizing opportunities, and believing in oneself against all odds, inspiring others to dream big and pursue their passions with unwavering dedication.   Kapil Gandhi MD, Sigma One Universal

The current month (March) alone has witnessed revenue of Rs 657 crores. The Registration and Stamp Duty Department has recorded an increase in the purchase and sale of properties in Pune and Pimpri-Chinchwad due to various factors such as the planned international airport, metro project, and two circular roads at Purandar, along with ambitious projects in the information and technology sector, industry, and employment guarantee. In the current financial year, from 1st April 2022 till now, more than 2.5 lakh cases have been registered in Pune and Pimpri-Chinchwad, generating a revenue of Rs 6,500 crores.

Additionally, new current market rates (ready reckoner) apply from 1st April every year, leading to a rush for registration in March. This year, between 1st and 24th March, 19,289 entries were registered, and a revenue of Rs 657 crore 18 lakh 54 thousand was received.   By Mubarak Ansari Founder & CEO, Punekarnews
