PATNA REAL ESTATE is A story of AN ELEPHANT and BLIND MEN

Patna Master Plan

With a new MASTER PLAN OF PATNA coming to the helm of affairs hopefully in the new year and the NEW BUILDING BYE LAWS seeing the light of the day; it is hoped and wished that a new steady recovery and growth in Patna Real Estate will roll out in the New Year 2015.

In the last two years Patna real estate has been like the Elephant with blind men (people in System) all around it. Remember the story; The Elephant and the blind men from childhood.  The fable has been used to illustrate a range of truths and fallacies about Patna Real Estate; broadly, the parable implies that one's subjective experience can be true, but that such experience is inherently limited by its failure to account for other truths or a totality of truth. At various times the parable has provided insight into the relativism, opaqueness or inexpressible nature of truth, the behavior of experts in fields where there is a deficit or inaccessibility of information, the need for communication, and respect for different perspectives. Patna real Estate is like the elephant and Patna Nagar Nigam, Judiciary, concerned ministries, the bureaucrats and the elected representatives are the blind men. Just think about a department; which cannot execute one of its simple tasks of cleaning the town daily, framing and fighting for making new bye laws and strategies for the same town. It can happen only in Patna.


Patna needs a new civic agency with no elected representatives or bureaucrats at helm of affairs. It needs to be a private body directly regulated by Chief Minister’s Office. Only, “regulated”. The black robes, they only can feel the tail of the elephant, as they work only on hindsight, for them it is long rope which cannot be shaped. Ironically; Patna real estate needs foresight and not hindsight. They really require to excuse Patna Real estate. Anyone who does not belong to this city, is not born or brought up in Patna should not get into the act of thinking about Patna. Patna needs Patnaites not outsiders imposed upon by the system of delayed, derailed governance. If Patnaites feel the need they can rope in consultants.


A decade of shift in policy regulations, urban development and professional attitude, is required for the growth of Patna Real Estate and the evolution of some major commercial office spaces in Patna as the backbone of Patna’s organized real estate landscape. Patna’s housing landscape has witnessed vast transformations over the last 10 years, shifting from largely independent low-rise plotted developments to high-rise apartment complexes. Now the change is required with focus on Quality of Living in Patna. Each and every Patnaite should know and believe that the real estate boom in Patna is inextricably linked to the Patna’s economic stability, which will make Patna a preferred investment destination in the time to come.

Naubatpur; an ace investment destination for land buyers in Patna

  If you want to put your money somewhere and forget about it, buying land in suburbs of Patna like Naubatpur could be the investment vehicle you’re looking for. Think about it: land is a long-term, tangible asset that  doesn’t  wear out and  doesn’t  depreciate. If you go into investing in land with the intent of holding  the right property for the long-term , it can make a lot more profits than any other investment asset class out there. Buildings can be replaced and demolished, whereas  land is a valuable and finite resource , with only limited quantities available. And Bihar has a population of 15 Crores and per capita income of Biharis are increasing in double digits. Land investing is for the patient, smart investor, someone who is willing to hold for the long-term or pass it on as a legacy. It’s for the investor who is looking ahead for 10 – 15 years. Land is a smart long-term hold, allowing you to win the benefits of rising values. Especially if you buy in an area like Naubat

Land Prices in Patna and Patna Real Estate.

Buy Land in Patna It is the rising price of land in Patna that keeps the price of real estate in Patna always increasing because the land price is the most important price factor in the real estate price in Patna. But at the same time land prices in Patna are also dependent or better say partially dependent on real estate developments in Patna. With rising real estate developments the land prices too head northwards.

Yes, it is interesting to decipher whether it is high prices of houses in Patna that makes the land prices in Patna higher or is it high land prices that makes buying a house in Patna exorbitant. The price of property in Patna is made of material cost, labour cost, intangibles like location & brand, marketing and administration costs (for builders and developers in Patna), registration & stamp duty cost, tax

WHAT IS THE MEANING OF “AFFORDABLE” FOR HOME BUYERS IN PATNA?

A   survey conducted by our company   on 100 flats’ buyers in Patna found that two out of every three homebuyer   in Patna   s ank in more than 50% of his total savings into the down-payment itself for purchase of flat in Patna .  Flats as investment vehicle is never attractive in Patna as rental yields are very low in Patna and property prices in Patna are elevated in many localities. The ‘ideal flat in Patna’ should provide the convenience without the compromises, be affordable and have great resale value. Since this is an elusive dream, home-buyers in Patna should focus on one or two items on their wish-list. It is important to find a good middle-ground between utility and affordability while buying property in Patna .  For a middle class resident of Patna, AFFORDABLE means property in Patna under the Rs 50 lakhs bracket.   Because the AFFORDABILITY measure = Ratio of EMI to Monthly income. A middle class family in Patna earns around Rs 75000/- monthly income ( ear
