A residential project is coming up in Ghaziabad. AU Realty is developing it in Siddharth Vihar. People are excited about this project because of its price of ₹6,900 per sq.ft.
But the question is: Is this project really good or are people just excited about the low price?
In this blog we will tell you everything that brokers usually don’t discuss:
- From FAR to floor planning
- From tower layout to all-inclusive cost
- Most importantly. Whether this project is right for you or not
Project Overview: Land Acquisition and Basic Details
AU Real Estate recently bought a 5.6-acre land parcel in Siddharth Vihar through an auction from UP Awas Vikas.
- Total Land Area: 5.6 acres ( sq.ft)
- Approx Land Cost: ₹339.4 crore
This project is strategically located and its planning is interesting from a numerical perspective.
FAR and Development Potential
This project has received a FAR (Floor Area Ratio) of 5 from the authority:
- 2.5 Default
- 2.5 Purchasable FAR
Based on this the total built-up area comes out to approximately 12,17,473 sq.ft.
If we consider a 30% loading:
- Total saleable (super) area: 17,39,246 sq.ft
Land Cost Per Sq.Ft Calculation
If we divide the land cost by the super area: It is equals to approx ₹1,952 per sq.ft
This is a metric to understand the project’s pricing.
Construction Cost and Total Landing Cost
Looking at the projects planning level:
- Construction Cost: approx ₹3,000 per sq.ft
- Costs: Regulatory approvals, marketing, compliance, etc.
- Total Landing Cost: approx ₹5,942 per sq.ft
Ideal Pricing vs Actual Pricing Strategy
Based on calculations ideally the project should have been launched at:
- ₹9,500 – ₹10,000 per sq.ft
However the developers pricing strategy appears aggressive.
Expected Additional Charges
- Charges: approx ₹1,500 – ₹1600 per sq.ft
- GST: 5%
- All-Inclusive Price: ₹8,800 – ₹9,000 per sq.ft
This price is still below the current average rate of Siddharth Vihar.
That’s why ₹6,900 per sq.ft + other charges appears attractive and justified for buyers.
Project Anatomy: Configuration and Apartment Size
A standout feature of this project is:
- One apartment configuration
- Size: 1,750 sq.ft
- Type: 3BHK + 3T
Note: The project is currently in the Pre- stage so layouts are not officially available yet.

Smart Planning: 2 Major Masterstrokes
AU Real Estate has used two strategies here:
Single Configuration Strategy
- One size and layout
- Keeps the resident profile balanced
Perfect Size Positioning (1,750 sq.ft)
- Suitable for buyers looking at 1500–1600 sq.ft
- Also acceptable for buyers considering 2000 sq.ft
- This helps cover an audience
Density and Tower Planning Strategy
An important observation:
- The project has FAR. More total units
Typical Scenario vs AU Planning
Generally:
- 4 flats per floor
But here:
- 8 units per floor
- 7 lifts per tower
The developer had 2 options:
- More towers. Reduced green area
- Fewer towers. Height increases up to 60 floors ( preferred in NCR)
AU created a smart balance:
- Optimized number of towers
- Controlled height (40 floors)
- Better space utilization
Layout Planning and Living Experience
The project layout is thoughtfully designed:
- All units are corner units
- Better sunlight, and Ventilation
- Strong flat-to-lift ratio
All this ensures a living experience for residents without compromising on green areas.
Location Analysis: Siddharth Vihar Growth Story
Siddharth Vihar came into the spotlight a year when Prestige Group launched its project here.
Existing and Upcoming Developments
Multiple reputed developers are already active in this area:
- T&T Group
- Prateek Group
- Gaurs Group
More developments are expected in the future as per GDA (Ghaziabad Development Authority) plans.
Current Property Rates in the Area
- Average Price: ₹9,300 per sq.ft
- In T&T Eutopia 4BHK units go up to approx ₹4 crore
Commercial Support
- OPUS and Gaur Siddhartham projects nearby
- Strong commercial ecosystem for needs
Connectivity Advantage
The biggest strength of Siddharth Vihar:
- Close proximity to Delhi
- Near Noida Sector 62 (IT hub)
This is why it is becoming the preferred residential hub for working professionals.
The Biggest Masterstroke: Target Buyer Segment
The important strategy:
- Targeting the ₹1.5 Crore budget segment
Market reality:
- High-end luxury (₹2Cr+)
- Compact budget housing
- Mid-segment is largely ignored
AU Group has identified this gap.
Developer Track Record and Philosophy
AU Groups approach is clear:
- Deliver quality products not sell at high prices
AU Sunflower
- Location: Aditya World City
- Launch Price: ₹6,500 per sq.ft
- Current Price: ₹10,000 per sq.ft
Strong appreciation + consistent quality
To understand the developers philosophy, visiting the Sunflower project is recommended.
Regulatory Update: Transfer Charges Cap
- Recently UP RERA has capped builder transfer charges.
- AU has immediately implemented this rule
- A sign for buyers
Comparison with Other Projects
In market comparison:
- Prestige City Indirapuram
₹1.5 Cr. 2BHK
- AU Siddharth Vihar
₹1.5 Cr. 3BHK
Clearly a better value proposition for end-users
Note: Direct comparison is not entirely fair since Prestige is a township project.
Is This Project Right for You?
Based on market analysis:
Positives
- Competitive entry pricing
- configuration strategy
- Strong location growth
- Good developer track record
- Well-planned layouts
Considerations
- High density (due to high FAR)

Conclusion
Very few projects in the real estate market tick all the boxes of:
- Planning
- Pricing
- Builder credibility
- Target audience
Based on the analysis far:
AU Siddharth Vihar Ghaziabad appears to be a strong contender, especially for buyers, with a ₹1.5 Cr budget.
