Remove Ads X users react: Jokes, advice, and real estate realities Practical suggestions pour in A Canadian citizen living in India has sparked a fun and furious online debate after posting about the sky-high rental deposit demanded for a flat in Bengaluru. Caleb Friesen took to social media platform X (formerly Twitter) to share a listing for a 3BHK flat in Diamond District, Domlur, and it's not the rent that stunned people, it was the Rs 19.25 lakh monthly rent was already a hefty Rs 1.75 lakh, but the security deposit left people gobsmacked. Caleb wrote:'Rs 19 lakh for security deposit! Absolutely bonkers what landlords are expecting these days. I could literally buy a new Mahindra Thar for less than this deposit. Anyone know of a place in/around Indiranagar with 2–3 months deposit only? Rent price range Rs 80,000 to 1 lakh.'The post went viral, quickly gaining over 18,000 views and opening the floodgates to all kinds of user joked, 'Don't buy a Thar. That's for special folks only,' while another wrote, 'Negotiable rent and non-negotiable deposit! Classic Bengaluru.'Some came forward with solutions too. A fellow resident offered, 'Looking for a flatmate in my 2BHK, no deposit needed, just feature our startup in your videos.'Another person made a serious point: 'You could buy a flat in Kolkata for that much!' To which Caleb replied, 'Lol, yeah same in Aizawl where I'm currently living. Crazy.'While some poked fun, others were more practical. One user advised Caleb to try Mahadevapura, a nearby area known for more reasonable rents. Another chimed in, 'Better to meet local brokers, online searches don't always show the real options.'A common theme was disbelief. 'Damn! That's too huge,' one user wrote, summing up the general mood.

The EV influx
The newly announced incentive scheme for foreign carmakers to make EVs in India is about to get off the ground. According to government sources, a lot of carmakers have evinced interest in registering for the scheme. This includes some who are already present in the country as well as new companies taking the opportunity to establish a manufacturing base in India. But that does not mean there will be a long wait for new cars at lower prices, because once registered, these companies can start importing EVs at a duty of 15 per cent as opposed to 70 or 100 per cent as the case may be. The number of cars that can be imported at the incentivised rate is governed by the total amount the company is saving by paying duty at a lower rate. This amount can be equal to the total amount the company has invested under the scheme—the saving being capped at Rs 6,484 crore. Of course, there are a lot more stipulations and caveats to this and it is not as simple as it sounds.

Delhi govt seeks central funds to boost road infrastructure
New Delhi: Delhi govt has decided to seek Rs 950 crore from central govt under Central Road Fund (CRF) to upgrade the city's road infrastructure. Public Works Department minister Parvesh Verma said that of the 1,400km stretches under his department's jurisdiction, nearly 415km will be taken up for strengthening under this project. Verma added that a number of these roads were lying in a state of disrepair for seven-eight years and were full of potholes and broken stretches. Despite central assistance being available for strengthening the roads, the previous govt never availed of the funds to carry out the work, he alleged. "We have decided to completely change the face of the city's roads by taking up massive road strengthening work. We have already repaired over 150km of PWD roads since we formed govt this Feb while another 100km will be completed soon. Our target is to repair at least 500km of city roads this financial year," the minister said. He added that Delhi govt was spending a lot of funds from its own coffers while central assistance had also been sought.

While the money under CRF is available for new projects, officials said, the strengthening of roads can also be taken up under this scheme. PWD has prepared a long list of roads spread across its circles and divisions in the city that will be repaired and resurfaced from the central funds and sent it to the Union ministry of roads, transport and highways for its approval. Various stretches of Ring Road and Outer Ring Road, parts of Mathura Road, Mehrauli-Badarpur Road, Mehrauli-Gurgaon Road, Africa Avenue, Barapullah Road, all arterial roads in Najafgarh and various flyovers have been included in the project. The department has mentioned the length of each road, the month and the year it was last repaired and the due date of their resurfacing or strengthening in the project file. While some of these roads are long, measuring 2-5km, many are also small stretches of a few hundred metres. According to the minister, PWD will simultaneously repair footpaths and drains with the state funds. "Earlier, the contractors first used to repair the road, then another contractor would come and repair the footpath, and a third one would dig up the drain to repair it. Now we have decided to give a comprehensive tender to the contractors to repair the roads, footpaths and drains," Verma said. It will be the responsibility of the contractor to carry out the regular maintenance work for the next three-five years, till the time of their next restrengthening, he added.
