"Pune is a very important market for us with a demand for quality aspirational homes by trusted brands. After success of our project in Hinjawadi (west Pune), now we have launched our new project in east Pune wherein we realise that there exists a demand for the same," Sriram Mahadevan,MD of Joyville Shapoorji Housing, told PTI.

When asked about the project cost, he said the estimated cost of this new housing project is around Rs 1,200 crore.

"We have been noticing that over the past few years, there is a flight to quality by customers and COVID-19 has hastened the process further. Customers are looking forward to quality and trusted brands for reposing their faith for home purchase," Mahadevan said.

"We are confident that Shapoorji Pallonji with more than 155 years of legacy would surely meet and possibly exceed their expectations in term of the product offering in the newest launch," he added.

The eligible homebuyers can also avail the PMAY benefit up to of Rs 2.67 lakh under theCredit Linked SubsidyScheme(CLSS) on selected apartments.

Despite COVID-19, Mahadevan said the company hasalready started the handover process of phase 1 at Joyville Howrah (near Kolkata) as per the timeline. It is planning to start the handover process of phase 1 at Joyville Virar (near Mumbai) before time.

The construction works are on at Joyville Hinjawadi (west Pune) and Joyville Gurugram (sector 102) and expected to be completed as per the timeline.

Housing demand was impacted severely during April-June due to lockdown to curb the spread of coronavirus.

However, sales have improved during the July-September period and is expected to further rise in the October-December quarter because of festival season and various incentives offered by builders.

The demand is getting consolidated towards big corporate brands and developers having better track record of execution.
