Bramha Sun City is a one of its kind society located at Wadgaon sheri,Pune.It is famous for its amenities-101 as the adverts say although not all are functional yet. Like many outsiders who live towards this side of the town,even I was attracted by the amazing gym,the 3 swimming pools and all the outdoor and indoor games facility set up at the club house. The flats however are very compact and there's a lot of wastage in terms of space. Also the electric points given in the flat are absurd.For e.g. a point for the microwave near the sink,etc. Now I am talking about the Phase 1 flats however they have improvised in the Phase 2 which they call Platinum or Signature Homes but the prices are exhorbitant too.
When I moved in to the society almost a year back,they were charging 100Rs.per person towards the utility charges of the club house.Since April 2010,they have increased this amount only for tenants to 500Rs.per person.The argument would be that it is still a meagre amount considering the number of amenities you get to use.But my question is that "Are the amenities being maintained well enough to even charge any untility charge over and above the maintenance charges?"The A.C. in the Gym does not work,the treadmills have been out of order since a week,the cycle doesn't function,the coaches are never inside the gym but loitering around somewhere in the Club House,the steam and sauna changing rooms do not function,the gents changing room near the swimming pool does not have hot water, just to name a few issues. Oh yes,the Club Manager is never in his office or available in the premises when you need to raise a complaint.
The menace of stray dogs is such that every day I need to ensure that my son is not left unaccompanied in the park.The security is appalling with the guards not moving their butts from their seats.The housekeeping is so horrible that the floors of the building corridors are not swept for days together.The guards do not switch on the building lights until 7 pm or later and have to be reminded that its dark enough. Security guards are not even aware of the visitor's car parking area due to which visitors park their cars in any vacant resident's parking area.And all this when even the society is not formed and the maintenance is still with the builder.
My advice to those who are considering to rent or buy here would be to reconsider these points before you agree on paying hefty rents/monies towards the flat here.It is not worth the money especially the way it is marketed for its amenities and facilities,definitely not worth it!!

Bramha Suncity is much hyped for no reason.I have stayed there for 2 years and i know its not worth the hype.The society has gone from bad to worse after the builder handed over the society.The society members increased the maintenance fees 3 times and they are so stupid that they also charge Rs 1000/- if you use the elevator to shift furniture to or from the house.Some one should stand up to this nuisance by the society members.This is unethical and amounts to extortion.
ReplyDeleteIn SunCity, there are certain office bearers who verbally assault residents, including women and children. All of us have at some time faced the issues arising due to the maintenence office. But what we faced today(4th October 2013) shocked us. We had someone actually come to our house, threaten my wife and daughter , misbehave with them and stand 8 inches away from then till someone intervened….
ReplyDeleteThings in Suncity have been a mixed bag... some services got better, some worse... but when its not going to remain a safe place to live... then i fear the apple seems to have fallen very far from the tree...
Im really appauled by what i have read.. and im sorry that you and your family had to go through this.
DeleteI have had the most horrible day where you thin your home is a haven.. think again the neighborhood/ society you stay in can really f@%^ your peace of mind. Just because i parked my car which konked off yesterday evening at the visitors parking in front of my building. To only discover this morning that there was a jammer on the wheel. and to top it off i had to pay a fine of Rs 1000/- for it my fault that i didn't leave a note on my car to let the society know that my car is broken down. without a 24 hr warning i was immediately fined by them. this is a true example of EXTORTION.
ReplyDeleteThe Sun City Packages, South Africa, are the pinnacle of family-friendly accommodation. The hotel opens on to rolling lawns and is conveniently located close to the man-made Waterworld lake, and the wide range of water activities offered here.

ReplyDeleteThere are more than 400 dogs in the society now. They bite so many kids and.kids cannot play freely . Look.for some other society or you will repent
DeleteThese were teething issues as transition from builder to RWA was not smooth. Suggest u speak to current residents
ReplyDeleteHi how is the experience now, has society changed for better...
ReplyDeleteThere are new issues no water in society.. God knows what is good left out..Swimming pool was shut down long back.although it is party of amenities list..swings are broken in play area..now water supply is a big issue.
ReplyDeleteDog lovers feed 400 plus dogs inside the society due to which digs have increased a lot. Now its difficult to roam around freely due tp dogs. Now society is not good for staying . Risky for kids too as they cannot play freely
