Frequently asked questions: payment plan
Can I change my unit after paying the EOI?
Yes. The EOI is an expression of interest, not a binding allocation. At the time of official booking (Stage 2), you will be offered unit selection based on availability. If your preferred unit is unavailable, the EOI is fully refundable.
When does my bank start disbursing the loan?
Your bank will inspect the site at each milestone and release the corresponding tranche to the developer directly. You pay pre-EMI (interest only on the disbursed amount) during construction. Full EMI begins after the final disbursement at possession.
What if I want to make a lump-sum payment instead?
Puravankara does offer a down-payment plan for buyers who prefer to pay 95–97% upfront in exchange for a negotiated price benefit. Contact the sales team to explore this option — it is typically available during the pre-launch window when early-bird pricing is in effect.
Are there any subvention or no-EMI-till-possession schemes?
Subvention schemes (where the developer pays pre-EMI on your behalf until possession) are subject to RBI and RERA guidelines and availability at the time of booking. Confirm with the sales team whether any such offer is active for your chosen unit.
What happens if the developer delays possession?
Under RERA, if possession is delayed beyond the registered date (December 2029 for Phase 1), you are entitled to a full refund with interest, or you may opt to continue with the project and receive interest compensation at SBI MCLR + 2% per annum on your paid amounts.
Can NRI buyers avail of home loans in India?
Yes. NRI buyers can avail home loans from Indian banks subject to FEMA guidelines. Loans are typically repaid through NRE / NRO account remittances or rental income. The bank will liaise with the developer on disbursements. Our team can connect you with banks that have dedicated NRI home loan desks.
