The opening lines of the Expat story were written in 1994 in a small office in Ballard Estate, Mumbai. Three business school graduates got together to set up a company to provide NRIs services in India and thereafter became a sub-broker in the Middle East. This created a platform to market real estate projects of Indian developers to prospective buyers in this region. Over the years Expat has grown from a retailer of property to a provider of turnkey real estate solutions. However what sets Expat apart is their unwavering commitment to putting values before profits. In a market where consumers tread with trepidation, Expat comes as a breath of fresh air. Uncompromisingly honest and transparent, the company is dedicated to delivering service levels that have never been seen before in real estate. Representative Image

"Frankly I had not heard about this Developer, till I met my old friend who is a part of this team. But from the time of site visit to the property till now, the experience has been very professional and classy.

A commitment ring it was for Pune's populace, a promise that the city would never have to be choked by burgeoning traffic.

Speaking to Mirror, Rajendra Raut, the superintending engineer of PMC's road department, said, "The DPR includes a feasibility report, geometric study, traffic study, design and estimation of the project. The civic body has roughly estimated a project cost of around Rs 7,000 crore. Till 2015, it had estimated a cost of Rs 150 crore per kilometre NAIDU LAYS STONE FOR ELECTRONICS PARK Chief Minister N.

MAHARASHTRA GOVT UNLOCKS AGRI LAND FOR INDUSTRY, EDUCATION INSTITUTES MUMBAI: The Maharashtra government has amended land laws to unlock agricultural land for industry as well as public educational and medical institutes, to promote the ease of business under its Make in Maharashtra policy.

The additional building rights will be made available on the payment of a premium of 30 per cent of the land rate. Officials said the changed rules will boost industrial growth on the outskirts of cities.

GROUNDWORK AT NAVI MUMBAI AIRPORT SITE BEGINS LAND USE CHANGE TO BE MADE EASY IN MAHARASHTRA RAIL BUDGET: RS 2,064 CRORE ALLOCATED FOR PROJECTS IN TAMIL NADU 1ST SEA-WORLD PROJECT SET TO COME UP IN SINDHUDURG Navi Mumbai: Work on levelling land in the core area of the Navi Mumbai international airport (NMIA) has finally started, almost two decades after a second international airport for Mumbai was proposed.

MUMBAI: In a bid to promote its Make in Maharashtra policy, the state government has further eased the procedure for the conversion of agricultural land to bona-fide industrial use. It has set up facilitation committee to smooth over a key hurdle, certification that the land in question is free of encumbrances. Officials say this reform which will boost industrial expansion. Once the committee clears the certification, the project has to be given a "sanad" or official document stating it is free of encumbrances, within 60 days. Tamil Nadu has been allocated Rs 2,064 crore in the rail budget for the financial year 2016-17. The minister allocated Rs 134 crore for a 36km new line between Morappur and Dharmapuri.

The project, along the lines of the US-based chain of water-theme amusement parks, was approved by the Congress-NCP regime in 2009, but never took off
