While purchasing a Prishty Group property in Navi Mumbai, get a copy of the title report by the solicitor of the property. Make sure that there are no conditions written in fine print and that there are no specific reservations by the state government.
Look for specific clearance reports. For instance, if the construction is near a seafront, you will need to check for a Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) clearance. If the project is being constructed over or in the close vicinity of a heritage building, you must check for any heritage reservations for the premises. We at Prishty Group have already taken the required precautions and clearances to ensure that you do not get stuck with a property that is, or may get caught in any sort of disputes. Since, lack of clearance of titles also means that you will not be able to avail home loans.
Several permissions and approvals from relevant bodies are sought by Prishty Group before embarking on the construction of any project. Without these clearances, the construction may come under scrutiny and litigation. Here is a list of documents and approvals that the builder must possess for all building work to commence in Mumbai:

The purchaser is allowed to deduct an amount equivalent to the total interest payable on the housing loan from his/her taxable income within the same financial year.
It began with Rs 15,000 being the maximum amount eligible for deduction in the case of self-occupied property. This later got doubled to Rs 30,000, then increased to Rs 75,000, and later enhanced to a limit of Rs 1 lakh. Currently, the limit stands elevated to Rs 1.5 lakh.
