Hello guys
Recently you might have seen big hoardings with a half nude girl staring at you saying that if you buy furniture worth 45k at Bantia, you would be given 150 yards land free (conditions apply) and a holiday vacation. You would also find this advertisement every other day in your newspaper.
Though I never believed in these kind of free gift offers, I got little bit interested when it was offered by a popular Bantia Furnitures and ofcourse listening to some INTELLIGENT friends' preachings.
So, I spent 45k (total 52000 including taxes) and bought furniture. I was told that I would be allotted land in a few days at a village 80km from Hyderabad. (only Registration fees is charged.) I was excited that I got furniture worth 45k as well as a free land.
In a few days, I got a call saying that a FREE land has been allotted to me and in order to get land registered on my name, I had to pay 22, 500!!! A list is given to me showing various charges and challans..changing of agriculture land to residential plots and stuff like that...
I enquired about the land details. It is allotted 85 km from hyderabad on Medak road. 18km from the main road. That is an agriculture land which has been divided into plots now.
Land cost over there..
1 acre - 1 lakh maximum (not even 1 lakh, lets consider)
150 yards - Rs.3100 (which bantia is giving free of cost)
Registration fees (including every stupid challan and charges)
1 lakh worth - 10% - 10000
3100/- -??? definitely not 22500
after seeing all this.. didn't dare to ask about FREE vacation..donno what answer I would get
BEWARE guys..dont lose your precious money for FREE land...
