Despite being a small town, Bhiwadi offers great return on investment in commercial property due to its locational advantage. The well-known shopping/commercial complexes in Bhiwadi include Central Market, Dhaba Commercial Complex, Ganpati Plaza Complex and Ashiana Arcade Complex. Central Market is the most pricey. This ground+2 floor market looks dilapidated, crowded and old but commands a price between Rs 8000-15,000/sq.ft. As the price is shooting up, the building is adding additional floors. The present rate prevalent in Dhaba complex is Rs 5000/sq.ft. Ganpati Plaza is largely an office complex where the property price is Rs 2500/sq.ft.
Since the mall culture is yet to embrace the town it holds a lot of promise for small developers in terms of retail development. To address this need, several malls are already being constructed in the town like Village Mall by Ashiana group, Capital Mall by R-Tech Developer, Parsvnath City Centre and BB Mall & BB Square by Jagrit Infrastructure Pvt. Ltd.
The 92,000 sq.ft Village Mall is coming up in Ashiana Village, targeting 1,000 families residing in this complex and families staying in other Ashiana projects around. It will be a mixed development with two floors dedicated to shopping and the other three marked for corporate space.
Bhiwadi-based developer Jagrit Infrastructure Pvt Limited is making BB Mall. According to Col. (Retd.) D.K.Sawan, Vice-President of the company, BB Mall is coming up close to the highway and BB Square plaza near Central Market, which is the prime but highly unorganized shopping locality. BB Mall will be fully air-conditioned, the first mall to have such a facility in Bhiwadi. Spread across 1,50,000sq.ft., this ground+5 storeyed mall will have shops, office space and multiplex. Sawan adds, “We will be investing Rs 50 crores to commission BB Mall. It will be ready by the end of 2009. Ground, first and second floors will be the shopping zones, while on third floor we will have corporate offices, shops, food court and hotel, and on 4th and 5th we intend to have a 3-screen multiplex. The shops on the ground floor are priced at Rs 7700/sq.ft and the rate gets reduced by Rs 1,000 for shops on each upper floor. The office space is priced at Rs 4711/sq.ft. BB Square will be a plaza of 25,000-35,000sq.ft. The rate is Rs 8,000/sq.ft here.”
Bhiwadi will soon witness the emergence of service apartment culture. Parsvnath City Centre, by Parsvnath Developers Ltd. will be an exemplary combination of shopping, multiplex and serviced apartments. With three floors of boutiques and high quality merchandise stores, it is claimed to be the largest shopping mall in Bhiwadi. Wing Commander R.K Maheshwari, Vice-President (Marketing), says, “There are a lot of industries coming up in Manesar, Bhiwadi and surrounding areas. We are developing a township with fully furnished service apartments with club facilities, food court and shopping mall targeting at the floating population who visit these factories. The project will be complete by early 2009 and we are expecting 50% return on investment. The apartments are priced at Rs 2450/sq.ft., and the shops are priced at Rs 5,750 for the ground floor, the deduction being Rs 1000 with each floor upwards.”
R-Tech Developers Pvt. Ltd. will complete Capital Mall in April 2009. With a grand frontage of 325 ft. and spread over 1,75,000 sq.ft., the six-floor mall will be dedicated to retail and entertainment with branded showrooms, boutiques, hypermarket, fast food joints and a four-screen multiplex. The ground floor shops are priced at Rs 5750/sq.ft., upper ground floor at Rs 5000/sq.ft. and the first floor Rs 4,500/sq.ft. Says Akhilesh Tyagi, GM (Sales), R-Tech, “The population of Bhiwadi has risen to six lakhs and 50,000 apartments are expected to be completed in the next two years. The primary catchments will be from surrounding residential and commercial pocket,”
Real estate experts believe that with boom in residential developments and propensity to spend on the rise, there is great scope for earning good returns on investments from malls.
