She says that Hyderabad is becoming better then Bangalore that was Silicon city.Big businessess loss of confidence in Bangalore came out in stark relief with MS. Kiran's comments on the state of affairs at Bangalore. Big biz captains like Azim Premji of Wipro, Narayana Murthy of Infosys,and Siemen's MD.

TELANGANAM

No clear picture even after Congress plenary.Kaka says it is impossible to achieve during UPA government since Communists are dead against it.
Pranab says that BJP not responding to his enquiry is what is holding the progress
BJP says that it will respond only after Congress makes its stand clear.
The prime minister says that congress will respect the CMP and it will do its best to impliment CMP with attempts by attempting to get consent of all.
He also says in the meanwhile let us concentrate on developing Telangana.

30-12-2005
ATTEMPTS BY TRS CHIEF TO CREATE A PRESSURE GROUP WITHIN UPA FAILED
Though it would be superfluous to talk of Telangana and TRS at this stage when no one believes that telangana is coming, it seems that TRS has a set back when its efforts to create a pressure group within UPA has failed to take off and TRS chief has to back track his statements since Lalu and Pawar failed to endorse it.

AGAIN TELANGANA HAS COME INTO FOCUS(15-11-05)

The Telangana Rashtra Samithi or the famous TRS is amidst a serious internal upheaval.No body knows the cause.No body can guess the effect.Is it splitting?dying?or simply these are all growth pains? Only time will tell. But real estate dealers really seem to think it is becoming more and more unimportant as for as the land values are concerned and many buyers seem to agree. Result is that the prices are increasing every day by about 2-3% on avrage.
BUYERS SHOULD ACT NOW!
THE RECENT MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS HAVE HIGHLIGHTED THE FOCUS ON HOW IRRELEVENT THIS VEXING PROBLEM HAS BECOME IN THE EYES OF GENERAL PUBLIC
The Chief Minister has been telling that this is not a serious problem at all and it will slowly disappear from public minds in due course. And he has proved it right in elections where TRS making so much effort, much more noice, grinding teeth and abusing every one against seperation as drohis etc has now cooled down by the public indifference.
DOES IT MEAN THAT THE CHIEF MINISTER IS RIGHT? You Guessed it.Right?
21 st July'2005: EVEN AFTER THE SO CALLED TURNING POINT MEETING BETWEEN TRS STALWARTS AND CM , THE QUESTION OF SEPERATE TELANGANA COMING UP HAS ONLY BECOME MORE VAGUE AND IT APPERAS THAT TELANGANA MIGHT NOT COME AFTER ALL.IN THE MEANWHILE THE CM HAS DONE A GREAT SERVICE TO HYDERABAD BY WAY OF GREATER HYDERABAD.TELAGANA OR NO TELANGANA HYDERABAD IS GOING TO BOOM.

IS TELANGANA COMING? IF YES.WHEN?
The Chief Minister speaks at last
And clears lots of points regarding this Vexing subject
Pranabh also clears all doubts at last!!!
HAS ANY THING CHANGED REGARDING TELANGANA NOW?.

Rajasekhar Reddy Chandra Babu Naidu Obviously nothing has changed. The confusion created by TRS leaders by various statements has now been clarified by the Chief minister- Hopefully for the last time.

One significant point is that Congress has always kept silent regarding this. It is TRS who went on issuing enthusiatic statements and tried to create tension and confusion. Now the chief minister has clarified that congress will abide by the second SRC decision. This may take years to materialise. TDP was always for an undivided state. Firm and clear. CPI and CPM were also clear from the beginning. No seperate Telangana. People will get developement faster in a bigger state. Small states are no. NO.
Smaller states can give more jobs to the politicians and gives more power to them. Common man gets nothing. This was the experience people had from other smaller states. But still politcians will either support or resist these decisions from their own party's point of view.
Do you agree?
After meeting with the Prime Minister and many Central ministers, party bigwigs, Sri. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy says that Telangana developement is number one priority on his Governments agenda and more then 50% share of the huge investment he envisages is being spent in Telangana region.
And he says he has larger number of MLAs from Telangana then the vociforus TRS. He implies that he has a bigger say on the subject and if he is silent it does not mean he is not interested in telangana's developement. He adds how he is giving more weight to its developement rather then TRS which is merely creating the impression that they alone are custodians of the new Telangana coming up.
He further says that a seperate statehood for Telangana can come only if the resolution is passed by the state assembly - Or secod SRC but any way it comes back to the state assembly where it is very unlikely to pass by majority.
Will it be possible? It is practically a big IF
And the indomitable minister MS simply says Telangana will come but certainly not in the immediate future. We think the picture has become as clear as it can ever be.No body knows. That is it.But if you are interested in buying a property go right ahead and buy it. Prices can never come down.

LATEST TRENDS IN PROPERTY VALUES AT MAJOR CITIES

Vijayawada prices are shooting up.
Visakhapatnam Prices are up slightly

    Hyderabad is being considered as the most promising IT hub by many companies because of better infrastructure, better transportation and from HR point of view.Thanks to the goverments far sighted vision, Andhra Pradesh perhaps tops in human resources. Many qualified and experienced professionals are available apart from lakhs of fresh graduates.
    Government has obviously identified two places. One will be at puppalguda and another in the 1200 acre plot acquired by A.P.I.I.C. at shamsabad Airport. Therefore, now we can expect some quick boost in prices.Buyers be ware! Buy now at the prevailng rates.
    GREAT THINGS HAPPENING TO HYDERABAD
    27 th Aug'2005: A.P.Goverment is thinking seriously about second I.T.Park at Ghatakesar on Warangal Highway???
    Already some IT companys are opting for any area away from Madhapur and Hightek City since too much of concentration will not only strain the infrastructure, it becomes increasingly difficult to travel thro the already overcrowded roads leading from and to the Hightek City.
    With this in mind A.P.Government has allotted 106 acres to Raheja group who are well known for implimenting IT infrastructure Projects. Already GE project and few more companies are doing projects in this area.This area offers good scope for expansion since vast areas of lands are available.

    NOW CAN WE EXPECT ANOTHER REAL ESTATE BOOM ON THIS WARANGAL HIGHWAY?
    At present rates are lower and investors should capitalize on this secod rising.

      and 8 villages that are blessed are
        Shamsabad   Satamrai   Jallapalli   Mamidipalli   Mankhal   Almasguda   Saradanagar   Ravirala
    • Now these will be an integral part of the Municipal Corporation of Hyderabad. this will facilitate funds inflow from centre as a special package.

    The city has been selected under National Urban Renewal Mission along with other cities like Ahmedabad, Bangalore while Visakhapatnam and Vijayawada are chosen for 'B' category under the same scheme.

      June 14 : Government is increasing urban land values significantly. But reducing stamp duty. This will affect only those who want to register the properties artificially at low prices to evade stamp duty.
      You can expect a special push for Bio-Tech now in Andhra.An alert investor can identify areas for investment.

      Yes! The Government has at last increased the Registration Values of properties in and around Hi-Tek city.
      Places like Madhapur, Kondapur, Gachibowli are now almost doubled for registration purposes.This means, actual registration expenses will be 6-7% higher now.This is a blow for those who want to register the properties at a lower rate, thus saving(?) in registration expenses. But for a honest person who want to register at actual value this will still have an indirect effect to the tune of 6-7%.
      23 rd March 2005
      The government did it gain
      The state government has increased land values all over the state again significantly.The latest increments would be 50% for all urban properties and it will be 10% for all rural properties. but in order to avoid registration expenses, they proposed to reduce registration charges from 13.5% to 10%.
      This means about 2-55 additional burden on buyers.

      WILL IT MEAN INCREASE IN LAND PRICES FOR BUYERS? MOST LIKELY.
      HYDERABAD PROPERTY VALUES WILL GO UP SIGNIFICANTLY!!!
