Sector 63 housing scheme of the Chandigarh Housing Board (CHB)
Work in Sector 63 has been initiated the at site, which has over 2,100 allottees.
The activity at the site has revived the hopes of allottees that they can get the possession of the land in 2013. The area has been levelled in the run up to the actual construction. Given its location adjoining Phase IX of Mohali, the terrain of the area was uneven and large-scale levelling was required for start of construction work.
The CHB plans to construct 2,108 flats in Sector 63, which includs 336 three-bedroom flats, 888 two-bedroom flats, 564 one-bedroom flats and 320 EWS flats at an estimated cost of Rs 414.45 crore.
The scheme was delayed as UT architecture department repeatedly rejected the layout plan of the housing project. The architecture department’s objections included coverage of the floor area ratio for constructing more than required flats, leaving less space between different blocks and absence of the greenbelt. Besides, several openings on the V-3 road were another irritant, as only one opening was allowed under the rules.
