خصوصی رعایت برائے ممبرانِ وِلا اپارٹمنٹس

محترم ممبران،
ہم ہر مرحلے پر اپنے معزز ممبران کے ساتھ کھڑے رہے ہیں۔ سالِ 2021 اور 2022 میں تعمیراتی اشیاء کی قیمتوں میں غیر متوقع اضافے نے ترقیاتی شیڈول اور اخراجات کو متاثر کیا، جس میں قیمتیں تقریباً 300% تک بڑھ گئیں۔ علاوہ ازیں وِلا اپارٹمنٹس کو ممبران کی درخواست اور رضامندی پر Overseas East بلاک میں منتقل کرنے اور ادائیگی کے شیڈول میں تاخیر نے مجموعی طور پر قیمتوں میں اضافہ کر دیا۔

یہ حالات ڈویلپر کے اختیار میں نہ ہونے کے باوجود معاہداتی شرائط کے مطابق اسکیلشن چارجز کے نفاذ کا سبب بنے۔

تاہم، ممبران کے مفاد اور اعتماد کو مدِ نظر رکھتے ہوئے مینجمنٹ نے اضافی مالی خسارے برداشت کر کے عارضی ریلیف دینے کا فیصلہ کیا ہے۔ یہ قدم ممبران کی خوشی اور ذہنی سکون کے لیے اٹھایا گیا ہے۔

ذیل میں دی گئی خصوصی رعایتیں لاگو ہوں گی:

جو ممبران 100% ادائیگی کر چکے ہیں:

• اقساط میں کوئی تاخیر نہ ہونے پر — اسکیلشن چارجز 100% معاف
• تا 10 ماہ تاخیر — اسکیلشن چارجز پر 50% رعایت
• 11 سے 25 ماہ تاخیر — 35% رعایت
• 26 سے 45 ماہ تاخیر — 30% رعایت
• 46 ماہ یا اس سے زائد تاخیر — 25% رعایت

وہ ممبران جنہوں نے مکمل رقم ادا نہیں کی:

• 80% سے 99% ادائیگی — 25% رعایت
• 71% سے 79% ادائیگی — 20% رعایت
• 60% سے 70% ادائیگی — 15% رعایت
• 50% سے 60% ادائیگی — 10% رعایت

عمل کو آسان بنانے کے لیے، اسکیلشن چارجز اب چار سہ ماہی اقساط میں ادا کیے جا سکتے ہیں۔ براہِ کرم اپنے واجبات کے ساتھ اسکیلشن چارجز کی پہلی سہ ماہی قسط 30 ستمبر 2025 تک جمع کروائیں، تاکہ ہم واضح اور تجدید شدہ ڈلیوری شیڈول شئیر کر سکیں۔

اگر مقررہ تاریخ تک ادائیگی موصول نہ ہوئی تو معاملہ سابقہ حالت پر واپس سمجھا جائے گا یا منسوخی عمل میں لائی جا سکتی ہے۔

ہم آپ کے مسلسل اعتماد اور تعاون کا شکریہ ادا کرتے ہیں۔ مل کر ہم وقت پر تکمیل اور آپ کے خوابوں کے گھر کی تکمیل کی طرف بڑھتے ہیں۔

Executive summary

On 17 September 2025, Future Developments Holdings (Pvt.) Ltd. (FDH) issued a formal circular titled “Special Favour to Members of Villa Apartments” announcing a structured relief package for villa apartment members of Capital Smart City. The circular explains the background — exceptional material cost escalation in 2021–2022 and member-driven relocation requests that affected timelines and development costs — and offers graded discounts on escalation charges tied to payment status and delay duration. FDH also allowed escalation charges to be paid in four quarterly instalments, but made it clear that the first quarterly payment must be received by 30 September 2025 to preserve the relief; otherwise the account risks reverting to previous status or cancellation. This article unpacks the FDH letter, explains the discount slabs in plain language, infers management intent, outlines member actions to secure benefits, and provides a practical checklist and contact pathway through an authorized facilitator: Gains Real Estate and Marketing Pvt Ltd (📞 0335-5592930 | 💬 wa.me/923355592930), and more information at www.malikjunaid.com and the detailed post at: https://malikjunaid.com/capital-smart-city-payment-update-2025-discounts-escalations-deadlines-overseas-prime-1-overseas-east-executive-i-more/.

Context — why FDH offered relief and why it matters

The FDH circular describes two core pressures that led to the relief package. First, material costs spiked sharply during 2021–2022; FDH explicitly references escalation of construction materials “as much as 300%,” which dramatically affected developer cash flow, construction schedules, and delivery timelines. Second, FDH notes the relocation of villa apartments to the Overseas East Block — a move that was made on member request and with members’ signed willingness — which created an area with higher plot values and therefore changed the economics of development and delivery obligations.

From this context we can infer a few realities: the developer faced higher-than-expected input costs and at the same time had to reconcile member preferences and reorganization of inventory, both of which increased the financial burden. The relief is therefore a management decision to share the burden and secure collections so that development and delivery can proceed on a revised schedule. FDH frames the measure as an act of accommodation “to extend relief by bearing additional financial losses,” indicating that the discounts are a limited goodwill concession to accelerate payments and clear delivery planning.

What the circular actually offers — discount slabs (readable table)

FDH’s letter lays out two related sets of discounts: (A) discounts for members who have cleared 100% of their dues but vary by delay in installment submissions, and (B) discounts for partially paid members according to percentage paid.

A — Members with 100% payment (but delayed installment submission)

• No delay in installments submission — 100% waiver of escalation charges.
• Delay up to 10 monthly installments — 50% discount on escalation charges.
• Delay of 11 to 25 monthly installments — 35% discount on escalation charges.
• Delay of 26 to 45 monthly installments — 30% discount on escalation charges.
• Delay of 46 or more monthly installments — 25% discount on escalation charges.

B — Members who have not paid the complete amount (massive delay categories)

• Paid between 80% – 99% of dues — 25% discount on escalation charges.
• Paid between 71% – 79% — 20% discount.
• Paid between 60% – 70% — 15% discount.
• Paid between 50% – 60% — 10% discount.

These slabs give a clear, graduated path: the closer a member is to full payment and the lower the delay, the higher the relief. The logic aligns developer incentives (collect cash quickly) with buyer benefits (reduced escalation).

Payment flexibility — quarterly instalments for escalation charges

A practical and important concession in the circular is procedural: FDH allows escalation charges to be paid in four quarterly instalments. This reduces short-term liquidity pressure on members who cannot immediately clear a lump-sum escalation. However, FDH is explicit that members should settle pending dues along with the first quarter of escalation charges by 30 September 2025 to qualify for the revised delivery schedule and concessions. If the first quarterly payment is not received by that date, FDH warns that the account may revert to previous status or the booking may face cancellation. Inference: the quarterly plan is a conditional relief — it’s designed to secure immediate commitment (first quarter) and then spread the balance.

---

Deadline and consequences — why timing is critical

FDH’s deadline — first quarter of escalation charges to be paid by 30 September 2025 — functions as the hinge that unlocks the discount structure and the revised delivery plan. The letter plainly states: if payment is not received by the specified date, the matter will be regarded as reverting to its previous state or cancellation. That means members who delay beyond the deadline risk losing the negotiated discounts, having surcharges restored/ increased, or even having their allocations cancelled and re-marketed. The developer is using a firm deadline to convert goodwill into action and to stabilize the development cash flow needed for delivery.

---

Practical implications for villa apartment members

1. Immediate action required: If you are eligible, transfer the first quarter of escalation charges and any overdue dues before 30 Sept 2025. Missing this date likely voids the relief.
2. Document everything: Retain receipts, bank challans, transfer confirmations and email confirmations from FDH or authorized agents. The letter is explicit about ledger accuracy — tangible proof prevents disputes.
3. Check which slab applies: Confirm whether you are under the 100% payment slabs (and how many monthly installments you’ve delayed) or the partial-payment slabs (50–99% paid categories). The discount percentage depends on this classification.
4. If you are short of funds: Use the quarterly instalment mechanism, but ensure the first instalment is paid by the deadline and get written confirmation.
5. Verify relocation effects: Members whose villa apartments were relocated to Overseas East Block should confirm any block-specific rules or cost adjustments associated with relocation.

Why FDH’s approach is standard industry practice (and what it signals)

Developers worldwide commonly use graded relief packages during periods of economic stress. FDH’s approach follows a pragmatic industry pattern: offer conditional concessions (discounts and instalment options) in exchange for immediate cash inflows and written commitments that stabilize delivery schedules. By offering 100% waiver for members with no delay, FDH incentivizes perfect compliance; the partial discounts for late or partially paid members create a clear path to regularize accounts while preserving fairness to paying members. FDH also signals that the developer is aiming to balance fairness (member relief) with legal clarity (clear deadline and reversion/cancellation clause).

How to pay safely and secure the relief — recommended steps

• Use official channels: Whenever possible, pay directly through developer-approved bank challans or the member portal. If using an intermediary, choose an authorized agent.
• Work with an authorized facilitator: For ledger updates and follow-up, use Gains Real Estate and Marketing Pvt Ltd (they can assist reconciliation, challan generation and follow-up). Contact: 📞 0335-5592930 | 💬 wa.me/923355592930. Reliable agents help avoid ledger mismatches.
• Get written confirmation: After payment, secure a written acknowledgement from FDH (or agent) confirming ledger update and the applicable discount.
• Retain payment proof: Keep screenshots and transaction IDs; if the portal does not reflect payment within 48–72 hours, escalate with both FDH and the agent, copying proof of transfer.
• Verify the quarterly schedule: If paying in four instalments, obtain the exact dates/amounts in writing and ensure the first quarter was accepted before the deadline.

Sample timeline for a member (inferred from the circular)

• Today – Before 30 Sept 2025: Confirm outstanding dues, compute escalation first quarter, and initiate payment.
• Within 72 hours of payment: Verify ledger reflects payment; request official acknowledgement.
• Quarter 2 to Quarter 4: Make remaining quarterly instalments as per accepted schedule.
• After final instalment: Monitor delivery schedule and revised timeline communicated by FDH.

This timeline is the practical sequence FDH’s circular implies — immediate first-quarter payment preserves the concession and allows a structured repayment for the remainder.

FAQs (inferred and answered)

Q: Who specifically is eligible?
A: The circular explicitly targets members of Villa Apartments whose accounts are either in 100% payment status (with varying delays in installment submission) or partially paid accounts (50%–99% paid categories).

Q: Does the discount apply to other blocks?
A: The circular is addressed to Villa Apartment members; block-specific concessions for other product types would require separate FDH communications.

Q: Will relocation to Overseas East affect pricing or delivery?
A: FDH states the relocation happened at members’ request and created an area with higher plot value; members should verify any block-specific adjustments or benefits directly with FDH or authorized agents.

Q: What happens if I miss the 30 Sept deadline?
A: FDH warns of reversion to previous state or possible cancellation — meaning loss of relief and potential application of full escalation and other consequences.
