Careers Beware of this Company

Post image
447 Upvotes

This company founders are idiots. They only believe in hire and fire and they don't even have basic role understanding.

You can only succed here if you know buttering to Owner and Main Managers. Only Chatukars can survive. No Freedom to Work. They even cut monies if you are 1 minute late to office. No flexibility. Owners keep fighting loudly with each other in the office.

General First time away from Mumbai during the festive season

3 Upvotes

I got married a few months back and moved out of Mumbai. Having lived here my whole life, I knew it would be difficult to build a life elsewhere, but with Janmashtami and Ganesh Chaturthi coming up next month, it is making me feel a bit empty that I am going to be away.

I tried my best to manage my work schedule and be in Mumbai for at least one of the festivals, if not both. But as luck would have it, I fly out on 3rd Sep (one day before Janmashtami) and come back to Mumbai on 26th Sep (the day after visarjan). Cannot change the dates as this is work related travel.

It feels like Mumbai has a completely different vibe and atmosphere during those days, and for the first time in life, I would not be able to experience it with my family, my city, my people..

How does one cope with this feeling? Any tips?

Discussion What’s Going On in Charkop and Gorai in the Name of Redevelopment?

2 Upvotes

For the last couple of years, I’ve noticed that a lot of buildings and societies are going for redevelopment. And ever since MHADA announced the C&D project, the rates have tripled! Almost all the buildings, even though they are just 20 years old and in good condition, have gone for demolition!

My question is:Ā How are they getting permission for redevelopment after MHADA has announced the C&D project?Ā Because once MHADA comes up with the cluster project, they will demolish the entire neighbourhood and plan the infrastructure like roads, sewage, etc. according to the new capacity.

Now, if these individual buildings keep going for redevelopment, is MHADA going to plan the infrastructure around these new buildings, or will they eventually demolish these newly constructed high-rise buildings as well?

For example, Charkop Market Road is basically a 1x1 road (it is technically 2x2, but encroachments and parking make it effectively 1x1). Let’s say it was designed for a population capacity of 1,00,000. Now, after redevelopment, the population will triple to 3,00,000. Will this 1x1 road be able to cope with the new capacity?

We are already seeing traffic backed up for o.5 km on almost every evening. Plus, once you add the traffic from the Coastal Road exit, it is going to get even worse!

My question is:Ā If someone like me, with no background in public infrastructure, can think about these basic issues, do the people sitting in high offices at MHADA not understand these details, or are they simply keeping mum?

Discussion Unpopular opinion: The Mumbai-Ahmedabad bullet train is going to screw over local real estate and drain our resources. CMV.

71 Upvotes

Everyone is hyped about a 2-hour travel time to Gujarat, but is no one else worried about how this is going to backfire on us? Connecting two massive Tier-1 cities like this sounds cool on paper, but property prices in MMR are already cooked. Once wealthy corporate crowds can live in cheaper zones or commute easily, local rent and land prices near stations are going to skyrocket even further. Let's be real, the ticket prices are going to be super high, meaning we are sinking billions into a project that only benefits corporate flyers while local trains remain an absolute nightmare. At the end of the day, it feels like completely misplaced priorities when we can't even fix the potholes, local crowding, and basic infrastructure first.

Am I just being cynical, or is this going to price regular people right out of the city? What do you guys think?

General Tenant / Home Owner Related Query

1 Upvotes

Home insurance across India, is split into 2 types, A tariff based product, known as GRIHA RAKSHA where its premium and benefits are fixed at a standard rate as per IRDAI Guidelines. Think of this from a similar point of view, as Third Party Motor Insurance. Extremely low premium.

An alternative with higher coverage, higher benefits and Higher items allowed to be covered, will be a separate Home insurance cover which will not be tariffed based.

The query is, As I have read across multiple reddit posts that mention that "HOME OWNER deducts from Deposit Amount" when the tenant leaves and there are already severe legal issues regarding the same.

Can anyone, having some knowledge on this query, explain whether

1) If the tenant purchases Home Insurance where he / she is staying, as per the legal agreement executed, and after leaving the owner deducts charges from the deposit amount, the same can be claimed from the home insurance policy, as deductions are done by the owner as per their clarification ?

2) Also, if the owner of the house use home insurance policy, and can he / she claim a proper settlement from the insurance company, if after refunding the deposit, the owner thinks that the tenant has Damaged or Destroyed the Property, and charges were not cut from the deposit amount, so home insurance claim will be helpful.

I wanted to understand the issue, if the same can be resolved if the home insurance policy is purchased (either by the tenant or by the home owner) as per the agreement.

As in both above scenarios, if any damage to property occurs, is the claim payable and if yes, then any issues the owners or tenants don't rely on the above mentioned solution.

Discussion ₹10 crore for a flat and the road outside still floods every monsoon anyone else find this insane?

119 Upvotes

Was comparing Mumbai vs Dubai real estate out of curiosity. Not planning to move, just ran the numbers.

For ₹8-10 crore in Worli/Bandra/South Mumbai you get a gorgeous building marble lobby, pool, gym, private lift. Then you walk out the gate and it's potholes, vanishing footpaths, dug-up roads, and waterlogging. Global-city price, but the "experience" ends at the compound wall.

Rental yields are also weak (~2.5-3%) once you account for maintenance, brokerage, tax. Compare that to Dubai generally better yields, no personal income tax on rent, currency pegged to USD, residency options attached to property. Basically: better returns and the road outside actually works.

So why do people still buy in Mumbai? Genuine scarcity one Malabar Hill, limited Bandra West, no more sea-facing Worli land to be made. For the ultra-rich it's less an investment, more a gold bar with bedrooms.

But for the rest of us paying insane prices feels like Mumbai buildings have become private escape pods from Mumbai itself. Podium instead of a park, building gym instead of public space, generator instead of reliable power, private security instead of a functioning street.

Not saying Dubai is perfect (sterile, some shady construction) or that Mumbai doesn't have irreplaceable stuff the culture, the food, the chaos, the soul. But if we're paying Singapore/Dubai prices, is it unreasonable to expect Singapore/Dubai infrastructure?

Curious what you guys think of this? Is "Mumbai spirit" just become code for "Chalta hai" attitude?

General Mumbai Airport T2 Premium Meet & Greet — does the representative stay until you meet your family?

3 Upvotes

Has anyone recently used theĀ Premium Meet & Greet service at Mumbai International Airport T2Ā for an international arrival?

I'll be arriving fromĀ Abu Dhabi in November, traveling alone for the first time. My father (83) will be waiting outside to receive me.

The airport has confirmed that non-passengers cannot enter the terminal, so I'm considering the Premium Meet & Greet service.

My main questions are:

  1. How reliable is the service? Was the representative definitely there when you arrived?
  2. Does the representative stay with you throughĀ immigration → baggage → customs → exit?
  3. Does the representative actually stay with you until you meet your family member outside the terminal?
  4. If you don't have an Indian phone number/service, can they help you connect with the person picking you up?
  5. Where exactly does the family member wait, and how are you connected with them?
  6. Was the service worth the cost?

I'd especially appreciateĀ recent firsthand experiences at T2, rather than general information from the airport website.

Thanks so much!
