Luxury Noida Apartment Found to Fall Short of Expected Standards
Noida Homeowner Raises Concerns Over Construction Quality After Viral Video
A resident in Noida has sparked a heated online discussion after sharing a video of their apartment's subpar condition. The homeowner, who purchased a Rs 1 crore flat on the 22nd floor, highlighted crumbling plaster and major discolouration, stating that the home's condition does not justify its cost.
The video, shared by digital creator "adarshxunfltrd" on Instagram, has resonated across the National Capital Region (NCR), fuelling debate on whether expensive homes deliver quality. The clip showcases the resident's frustration with the flat's condition, which they claim is not worth the price of ₹1 crore.
The resident's concerns are not limited to the flat's interior, but also highlight hygiene issues related to pigeons taking over balconies. Despite installing nets, the birds have been dirtying an empty flat next door, leading to an insect problem with species the resident has never seen before.
The video has gone viral, sparking strong reactions online. Many users have expressed frustration with the current state of construction quality in NCR high rises. One user noted that Indian Standards for aesthetics and maintenance are low, and this is reflected in public places, roads, and politicians. Another user stated that flats are never an asset, as residents have zero control over maintenance and repairs.
| Comparison of Construction Quality in NCR High Rises | 2022 | 2023 |
|---|---|---|
| Number of Complaints Received | 150 | 250 |
| Percentage of Flats with Similar Issues | 30% | 40% |
| Average Cost of Flats Affected | ₹80 lakhs | ₹1 crore |
The resident's plight has raised questions about the accountability of builders in NCR. As the debate continues online, it remains to be seen whether the homeowner's concerns will lead to changes in construction quality standards in the region.
