How UDS is worked out
UDS is usually shared in proportion to each flat's size. In our Aboorva Rohini building, for example, a 1,090 sq.ft 2 BHK carries 370 sq.ft of UDS and a 1,840 sq.ft 4 BHK carries 626 sq.ft.
Why it matters
Buildings age, but land holds its value. If a building is ever redeveloped, owners share the land by UDS. Small buildings with fewer flats usually give each owner a larger UDS than big towers do.
Before you buy: a quick checklist
- Title and patta Ask for the parent documents, patta and encumbrance certificate, and have a lawyer check them.
- Approved plan Check that the building follows the sanctioned plan — number of floors, setbacks and parking.
- UDS for your flat Your undivided share of land should be written in the sale deed. More UDS means more land you own.
- Road width and water Wider roads mean easier access and better resale. Ask about borewell depth and Metro water.
- Build quality Ask what the walls are built with, what sand is used for plastering and which brands go into fittings.
