Our society is going for redevelopment. Our flat has 2 balconies which we internally converted to room. My question is whether balcony area is considered for redevelopment or not. Eg. If builder decided to give us free10% area whether he will give it based on carpet area mentioned in our property papers ( balcony area is not mentioned as carpet area) or he will not consider balcony area for the same. Our balcony area is 100 sq ft.
When your society undergoes redevelopment, the crucial question is whether your converted balcony space is factored into the new flat's area. Generally, builders will base any additional area entitlement on the carpet area explicitly stated in your property agreement. If your balconies aren't listed as carpet area, you may be entitled to an equivalent amount of terrace space in the new property, as per the terms of your sale deed.
The builder will consider the carpet area mentioned in the agreement. If the balcony area is not included in the carpet area (as mentioned by you in the query) then you should get an equal amount of terrace area in the new flat.

Builder is bound to act as per agreement and annexed map. Check Your agreement whether balconies area are covered in that or not.

Redevelopment is based on the terms of the agreement. It is inequitable to bargain too hard on issues deficit in parity.
