[Resolved]  Kristal Group — Cheating customer with False commitments

Hi All,


Am one of the unlucky person who happen to buy an appartment from Kristal Group, who claims to be one of the reputed Builder in Bangalore. Project name is Kristal Citrine in Hoodi, Near ITPL

1. At time of selling Kristal group had commited to have the road infront of the appartment to be Tarred. After one year of occupation also the condition of the road remains same -- When we contacted later; Kristal management is saying the road is not belonging to Kristal. We beleive, earlier the road was belonging to kristal, that y they commited it be tarred earlier and now they realised it is belonging to Kristal

2. Kristal commited to provide EPABX/Intercom, but finally they asked the residents to go for BSNL Centrex facility which is not at all stable and reliable. -- When contacted on this issue; they say we hve to go to BSNL not to kristal bcoz it belongs to BSNL and kristal is no way responsible and it is a FAVour that they have helped us in getting connection !!!

3. LIFTS in the Appartment were not working for more than 6 months after the pocession and after lot fight with the Builder is getting rectified. REason for this is Kristal is not manufacturing Lifts !!! We fear tomorrow if some thing happnes to building, kristal will say Cement & Steel are bot manufactured by Kristal ...

4. Kristal group had commited lot Amenities like PARK/Swiming pool /Club house / Shuttle & Tennis court etc. Even after one year of possession, they have not even started construction of the Amenities. When enquired they always given 1-2 weeks time for the start . Every time they give different different dates.

5. Basic funciton of STP is not function. When some of the residents spoke to the external workers who come to work on this; they had commented it is that STP is such an design that it is placed much above the septic tanks and such a way this is not going to function properly

6. Kristal group has not yet provided KHATA for the residents

7. Even though huge amount is connected for Electricity connection, Still the Electricity connection is in teh name of Kristal

8. Even though govt direction is there not to collect Service Tax, Kristal grooup had collected that amount from the residents.

9. All the Flats in the frontside are having issue like water is flooding to the appartments in case of a rain. we are not talking about heavy rains; the design is so poor that water floods to corner appartments. Kristal management had told us that Aluminium Frames/Windows are not manufactured by Kristal. We had to go and fight with those Manufactures !!!

10. There is legal issue with the site wherethe amenities are promised and hence kristal is shying away from the same

11. The ramp leading to car park is not yet tarred

12. NO COMPOUND WALL!!!

13. Rain water leakage in many flats


In addition to the common problems mentioned above, there are a lot problems faced by individuals which is totally neglected by the builder.

***** REQUEST TO VISIT KRISTAL CITRINE @ HOODY ( near ITPL ) or KRISTAL QUARTZ ( Sarjapur Road) before you decide to buy any appartment from KRISTAL ************


Regards,

One of the Kristal Citrine resident

Kristal Group is managed by a bunch of [censored]s...the closer you get to them the greater the stench...so beware!

Promises are meant to be broken is Kristal's punch line.
Now you blame Kristal for everything. Why did you not check all those things that you are complaining before buying the flat. At the time of buying, you may be in hurry to close the deal and now you complain for everything.
Kristal is big time cheaters. Do not buy flats from them. They give false promises and take the customer for a ride. MR Namboodiri is fraud. To get a way from his fraud he has appointed his wife who does not know anything about running a business. They are biggest real estate frauds in bangalore. Do not buy flats from them.
contruction in Kristal site in Trivandrum is not moving fastly.
The handing over date is nearing..but structure and internal walls are not completed.
KK Namboothiri please look intot he matter
Kristal management does not know how to manage actions and full fill their promoses.
Marketing people givesfalse commitments and customers beleives in it.
Are these Marketing guys informing the correct information from the kristal management to customer.

Also there is noone...no project managers to dirve the projects to its promised completion date

Mr KK Namboothiri come into play..donot let Kristal go off your hands
I am also a resident of Citrine apartments.

I don't know if the person who has written above matter has any personal grudge with Kristal.

They have rectified most of the problems and roads are not their property. however it is already done.

The design of STP is working properly even now

BSNL has provided a better intercom system with lower tariff for telephone calls and most o[censored]s find it more usefull. more over this system does not have annual maintenance charges.

Regarding the lifts, even our residents tried to call them and they were fed up. but end of the day the lift is rectified

even out residents went to court to for checking the stature of the case and found what the builder is tellling is right and they had to retrieve their comments.

even now we go the builder for various needs and we get good response from them, in spite of all the damages caused by a very few of the residents.

though they could not provide amenities as promised, they have blocked one flat to give necessary equipments for gym and recreation many o[censored]s are using the same with out paying any maintenence. children's play area is also provided
Just a single resident of Citrine apartments gave a positive comment on their flat!!!
Heard that they have stopped the project works in blore.Is it true.
What about their projects in Kerala?
A lot of the flats sold to the unfortunate buyers have been mortagaged with HUDCO and I happen to be one of them. Not too sure what to do or where to go. This is a once in a lifetime investment for me and I am very dissapointed with these crooks. As mentioned earlier they promised the world whne they wanted to sell the flat but all of it were empty promises and nothing else.
Cheating Case filed aganst Kristal group infront of Chief Judicial Magistrate, Bangalore, for the fraud in Kristal Citrine Apartments Hoodi!!!

Hi Mrs and Mr K K Namboothiri,
Please check the status of the projects in Kerala sites.They are lagging very much.
Why are you not fulfilling your commitments to your customers?Or are you just giving false commitments to improve your business?

Same case for most of the current kristal group customers - http://sites.google.com/site/kristalberyl/
Im an unfortunate buyer too. We have booked an apartment in dolomite which was supposed to be completed in Oct 2008 and looks like it'll take another year. I dont know when the'll complete the work. All life time savings are gone and we're stuck. We're not able to come out of it too. Can anyone suggest some action against them?

Kristal Group makes foray into Kerala
The Bangalore-based Kristal Group, providers of customised flats and villas, has established their base in the state by opening its maiden office in Kochi to launch their first apartment project - Kristal at Kochi. The group has plans to launch several projects in Thrissur and Kozhikode soon. To meet the anticipated demand for quality housing solutions, Kristal Group will offer flats, villas, commercial complexes, IT towers, resorts and clubs. The group has a turnover of Rs 100 crore and consists of 12 separate entities with independent business activities.
Contact: General Manager. Kristal Group. Tel:[protected].
your project sounds like it is mismanaged and unorganized and it is just another India Project that promises what they cannot keep.
the project is not completed yet. 3 years have passed after they booked it.
pls complete onyx at the very earliest..add more workers to your project and plan day and night works
Let me introduce myself, a property specialist worked closly with builders and land developers and most imp with 100s of customers in bangalore, cochin and mumbai, My experience with kristal -they are good at heart ( intentions are good - they are not cheats ).problem areas they blindly trust lot of thet vendors, sr and junior level workers - allmost all of them with below average awareness and skillset - so starts the pain of bad design, deviations, legal issues, time lines commitment issue and so on.

basically now Kristal lacks the business acumen to stay there as a cat A builder and is slipping far behind .so before buying any kristal property check all the features and commitments yourself, talk to a few owners and try to buy completed projects only from this builder

some of their projects in kerala and the one in bannerughatta road banaglore is of good design and build quality and great location and value for money -. there are small issues everywhere - thats there with lot of builder, so its important that the buyer should know what hes looking and set expectations accordingly

thanx for reading ! happy property hunting
