Bengaluru Metro's loss is BMTC' gain on NICE Road

Bengaluru: With the long-delayed Yellow Line of Namma Metro to Electronics City still not open to public, thousands of commuters are turning to BMTC's NICE Road express bus services, which have seen a sharp rise in ridership and earnings in recent months. Launched in Dec 2023, BMTC services along NICE Road corridor began with 62,000 passengers. Today, they attract more than 4 lakh commuters each month. The corporation is now operating 53 buses across 17 routes on NICE Road, with daily ridership exceeding 13,000 passengers. Revenue has also seen a notable jump, with earnings per kilometre doubling in just over a year to Rs 58.8 from Rs 26.1. Among the services gaining traction is the recently introduced non-stop express route covering 48km between Madavara and Electronics City. BMTC chief traffic manager (operations) GT Prabhakar Reddy said the services have outpaced other major corridors within city limits in terms of popularity. "...Responding to this demand, we've added more routes and buses. We've also introduced a direct link from Tavarekere to Electronics City and are planning to roll out 10 AC buses on this route," he said. NICE Road buses now connect key IT hubs via routes originating in Madavara, Vijayanagar TTMC, Bidadi, Kengeri, Banashankari, Basaveshwara Nagar, and other residential areas. Commuters cite reduced travel time and avoidance of city-centre congestion as key reasons for choosing NICE corridor. A one-way ticket from Madavara to Electronics City costs Rs 76, including a Rs 30 toll charge levied by NICE. Although BMTC had earlier requested the toll be reduced or waived for public transport buses, the proposal did not receive any favourable response from NICE authorities. Several passengers also use Metro to reach Madavara before switching to buses to complete their journey to Electronics City. This seamless multimodal shift has become increasingly necessary, as BMRCL continues to miss deadlines for the Yellow Line, connecting RV Road and Bommasandra. Despite spending nearly Rs 7,000 crore on the 19-km elevated stretch, the Metro line — initially expected to launch in June with three trains — is yet to receive third-party safety clearance for its signalling system. With no official launch date in sight and repeated delays, public confidence in BMRCL's timeline continues to erode. Meanwhile, BMTC's efficient operations along NICE Road are proving to be a lifeline for daily commuters to the city's IT corridor.

HC junks Greater Noida Industrial Development Authority order to cancel land for project

Noida: The Allahabad high court has quashed a 2022 decision by Greater Noida Industrial Development Authority (GNIDA) to cancel land allotted to Royal Golf Link City Projects Pvt Ltd, calling the move "arbitrary and illegal". The court struck down restoration charges, time extension penalties, and penal interest imposed by GNIDA, asking the Authority to restore the plot and revalidate the project map. The court was hearing a petition filed by Royal Golf Link in April, challenging a UP govt order that restored the land allotment but levied several charges. On May 27, Justice Pankaj Bhatia of the Lucknow bench of the HC struck down the state govt's order, nullified the penalties, and granted a three-year extension to the developer to complete the project without extra cost. The court said GNIDA had no valid reason to deny relief to Royal Golf Link when similar reprieve was given to other developers. "Thus, for all the reasons above, the impugned order insofar as it denies the benefit of restoration charges, the extension of time without payment of charges, non-charge of penalty interest and zero period benefit is wholly unjustified and the order to that effect is bad in law. Thus, the writ petition is disposed of with direction to the respondent no 3 (GNIDA) to recalculate the dues as indicated in the cancellation order dated July 20, 2022 without charging the restoration charges, grant the benefit of time extension without any charges and calculate the interest without charging any penal interest at the rate of SBI's MCLR + 1," the court order read. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch CFD với công nghệ và tốc độ tốt hơn IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo The case revolves around a 36.4-hectare land parcel allotted in 2014-15 for developing a recreational park in Sector 27. Initially allocated to a consortium led by Ultra Homes Construction (part of the Amrapali Group), the project was later transferred to Royal Golf Link City Projects, a special purpose vehicle. The total land premium was Rs 298 crore, of which Rs 59.6 crore was paid when the lease was signed. The dispute emerged when GNIDA failed to provide full physical possession of land, with 13,517sqm under encroachment, including a pond and connecting pathway. The situation was further complicated when the then DM asked the developer to leave this area for public access, necessitating a project redesign. The Authority also recorded the presence of farmers on a part of the land and deferred the next premium instalment by six months. The Amrapali case in the Supreme Court further complicated the progress, as the company declared an investment in Royal Golf Link in 2018. The SC ruled that leaseholder dues should be calculated at SBI's MCLR + 1. Royal Golf Link sought recalculation of dues and an 18-month zero-period benefit from the start govt, saying it hadn't received full possession. Instead, GNIDA cancelled the lease on July 20, 2022, citing unsettled dues of Rs 360 crore. The developer moved HC, claiming that GNIDA ignored the SC ruling on interest. Homebuyers also intervened, arguing that the additional charges would be passed on to them. They also claimed that most of the project was ready, but was stuck due to GNIDA's disputes. Royal Golf Link insisted that the restoration fees were unjust since the cancellation was ruled illegal. The court accepted the developer's request for zero-period relief, waiving penalty interest and dues for the Covid pandemic period and from July 20, 2022, to June 12, 2024. The court ruled that the developer must pay 25% of the revised amount — after adjusting Rs 5 crore already paid — within 60 days of receiving the demand. The project Royal Golf Link is building is known as 'The Hemisphere', which includes 1,300 flats, villas, and shops. The developer has claimed to have offered fit-out possession to around 900 buyers.
