IN RESPONSE TO POST #82999 ABOUT REMITANCE

I am amazed how ignorant people are about REMITTANCES and LEGAL WHITE MONEY IN PAKISTAN. I have lived in Saudi Arabia for 10 years and still visit on and off.

99% of people in Saudi don’t have a clue how to handle their money in PAKISTAN. ( legally )

Most of the people in Saudi send money to Pakistan to support their families though WU, Banks or any other channel. These people don’t need any remittance records as the money is spent on necessities.

But Investors who want to invest in Pakistan need to maintain proper Record in Pakistan for their REMITTANCE to be declared " WHITE MONEY "

let me give you few examples where your HARD EARNED HALAL money is considered black in PAKISTAN.

1. You are travelling to Pakistan and greed comes over you. You put 1 lac Riyals in your laptop Bag and bring the money to Pakistan, convert the money through money changers and buy a plot or put in your bank. ( People do this thinking that their money is HALAL so no one will question them ). PAKISTAN CONSIDERS THIS MONEY BLACK.

2. You transfer your money into your XYZ relatives account and you pay from his account.

3. You send Dollars to your USD account in PAKISTAN , Invite money changers in the bank, convert your cash in PKR and deposit back into your account. ( PAKISTAN CONSIDERS THIS BLACK MONEY )

these are just few examples which people do with their money. there are many more.


NOW LETS COME TO THE POINT , HOW CAN YOU DECLARE YOUR MONEY WHITE OFFICIALLY RECOGNIZED BY PAKISTAN AND FBR.

1. Open a bank Account in PKR in PAKISTAN. I USE UBL because SABB uses UBL as their remittance partner in PAKISTAN. YOU need to know which bank is in partnership with your Saudi Bank.

2. SIMPLY USE AL RAJHI to transfer your money or use your online SABB account to transfer money to UBL. If you are sending money through SABB to UBL account, the money will be deposited within 3 days with all the details of your transaction. If you use SABB to transfer money into any other bank, it will reach UBL KARACHI and then UBL KARACHI will issue a LOCAL PO which will be deposited into the bank which you have mentioned. ( NO record of remittance will be shown )

Note: Rajhi mostly uses HBL to process remittances.


3. When you receive money in PAKISTAN, You should have TT number or reference number with you, Along with scanned copy of Saudi bank voucher or money changer voucher. Go to your UBL branch and ask them to ISSUE " PRC" against your remittances. Your branch will make an application and you will sign it , they will scan it and send to the concerned department over email. After few days or even weeks with continuous follow ups eventually your PRC will arrive and you can collect it.

THIS PRC IS ONLY THING WHICH IS ACCEPTABLE and FBR ACKNOWLEDGES as FOREIGN REMITTANCES.

I have explained small details about UBL. procedure varies between different banks. BUT Keep in mind you need PRC certificate to legalize your money.

Lastly do not send money in USD in Pakistan. Because if you change USD to PKR from bank itself you will loose lots of money as their exchange rate is very poor ( they make lots of money by converting into PKR ) and the only way to get PRC from bank for USD is if you use banks services. if you withdraw USD and use local money changer , NO one will issue PRC and FBR or the GOVT. of PAKISTAN will not recognize your remittances as legal.

ALL this is for people who are investing in Pakistan. Money which is being used for necessities do not need to go through all this procedure.

ONE LAST THING

Overseas people who want to avoid paying 0.6% WHT on their bank transaction must file their income tax on yearly basis.( HIRE A LAWYER WHO WILL DO ALL THIS ON YOUR BEHALF FOR A VERY SMALL FEE of around 10-15 thousand ) As soon as you file your return you will be automatically updated as " FILER" STATUS and no WHT will be applicable on you when you buy a property, CAR, CASH withdrawals, BANK transfers etc. etc. All the money which you are sending to Pakistan is exempted income. There is no income tax on your foreign income which you are sending to Pakistan. All overseas will declare their income as foreign remittances and declare their assets. You will return a NILL income tax return with all your assets and money LEGAL.

I request all overseas to go through these procedures again and again as i myself have gone through all of this ( I learned it the hard way with no one to guide me) so i want other people to benefit. These are just simple steps with no extra money involved, just some paper work and all your money and assets will be legal.

I am willing to give answers to all of your questions which will help you legalize your money in Pakistan. Please forgive me if I am wrong some where. Whatever I have written is a personal experience and may vary from one individual to another.

Adil replied on Sunday, May 29, 2016 09:37 AM PST 

Dear Sir,
Thank you very much for guiding us. I have one question. If I buy property from this money then do I need to pay any property tax. What about income tax if I invest this money in plots and then sale these plots and buy new one.

UAE Investor replied on Sunday, May 29, 2016 12:15 PM PST 

I have been sending money to Pakistan from UAE on regular basis. I have made few investments in DHA, Bahria etc. Here is how I transfer funds:
I have joint account (me and my wife)Dirham currency account in United Bank Limited Dubai branch. Then I have an account in PKRs in UBL Pakistan.
I keep all my savings in UBL Dirham account and when I am planning to invest in Pakistan, I transfer the required funds from Dirham account to my UBL PKRs account in Pakistan. Money gets transferred within 1 hour. Let me tell you that UBL gives the best possible exchange rate and no service charges. So I get the maximum benefit with this arrangement.

However, what I am more interested in knowing is that what will be mechanism if I want to transfer UAE dirhams from Pakistan to UAE. What is the most cost effective, transparent and legal method???

Farhan replied on Sunday, May 29, 2016 12:33 PM PST 

Dear this 10000US Dollars is the amount which you can take with you from Pakistan as mentioned on airport also. From saudi arabia you can bring declared 60000 SAR with you without any information to airport airport authorities However you can also bring more SAR but in that case you have to declare what is the source of funds which you are taking with you. You can get your company certificate to justify this amount like you taken loan from company or bank etc.

I really like the way you have explained everything in detail for investors. May Allah reward you for your effort. I confirm that everything you detailed here is exactly how it is supposed to be and this is how I manage my funds to maintain a legal record of everything. Good day!

Syed ANZ replied on Sunday, May 29, 2016 01:20 PM PST 

JizakAllah SA brother for the guidance,

Just one question, you mentioned that when we overseas become filers then no WHT on property, car, cash, bank transactions etc. Is it really no WHT for us after filing or will it reduce from 0.6% to 0.3% etc.

Thanks is advance for all guidance.
Regards, Syed

UAE Investor thanks for info. I was also exploring this option with UBl Dubai.

What about the witholding tax , how are you addressing that?

Omran replied on Sunday, May 29, 2016 01:34 PM PST 

What is PRC stands for ?
Is it a receipt or kind of certificate issued by the bank ?
What if I want to get last three years PRC ? Is that possible?
I have complete record of foreign transaction from Saudi Arabia to Pakistan e.g ( quick pay, Speedcash and telemmoney etc)
Note:Me and my wife both are sending remittance in one account Last year I have visited STandard chartered bank in Pakistan and bank PR officer told me that they cannot issue PRC as amount transfered in my açcount is done via cheque and they cannot recognize it as foreign remittance?
What kind of documents I need to produce before bank to receive PRC?

SA2 replied on Sunday, May 29, 2016 01:36 PM PST 

Dear SA,
Thanks for your information . However I do not agree on one point that is if you send to your dollar account in Pakistan and then concert to PKR . how it become black money

wht is PRC.?

Ahmed replied on Sunday, May 29, 2016 03:15 PM PST 

Once the money is credited to your account you can ask your bank for a Proceeds Realisation Certificate (PRC). This document shows how much money you received and the currency exchange rate used to convert the money to Pakistan Rupees.

Hassan replied on Sunday, May 29, 2016 04:53 PM PST 

@SA. For Non resident Pakistani,your taxable income is NIL. But please guide do you have to declare the income earned overseas and do you have to file a wealth statement also when you file your income tax return.

aamer replied on Monday, May 30, 2016 01:45 AM PST 

DEAR SA2

ur money would remain white if ur convert it through bank,mean that ur bank debit ur account with us $ n convert it to prs with the existing rates,,

if u get usd from ur account and change it to from market/ money exchanger etc it would not be a white money.

hope its clear ur point.

SA2 replied on Monday, May 30, 2016 03:27 AM PST 

Dear Aamer,
thanks for your comment. so you are saying it is illegal to convert money from market. It is logical to convert it from market bcz open market rate is high.
FBR or any other institute looks for the proof of money from whee does it comes not from where you convert it. Any money sent through bank can not be declared black.

aamer replied on Monday, May 30, 2016 02:49 PM PST 

DEAR SA2

I did not say that money sending from abroad is black,, I only mentioned that if u convert it from open market,then it lost is legality,,

coz when u change it through open market there is no encashment certificate ,,and if you change it from ur bank or any authorized exchange co.,u may get encashment certificate ,which is proof of ur white money.

thanks

Sohail Sherali replied on Saturday, June 11, 2016 02:59 PM PST 

I have a question, and still figuring out, is it legal to received money from Middle east of USA into Pakistan through WU, they give us one paper and cash money as per the information we received from the sender that we are going to get 99,999.99 RS.

Who will issue us the Proceeds Realized certificate to file in the income tax wealth statement, or the paper we received from the Money changer / Banks are enough.

Kindly explain, we need your expert opinion.

ZA khan replied on Wednesday, September 27, 2017 03:49 AM PST 

it late but just for your info you are allowed to hold dollar account and allowed to sell to anyone and it will not become black just because you sell it in open market.

DHA Multan analysis

Dear CMY,
Following is my humble viewpoint about DHA Multan, I have different opinion than you for short term. I hope you will review and reply to my expectations regarding DHA Multan.

DH multan will be a huge success in long term as u recommend also. However u have recommended not to buy DHA multan file above 40lac. Here I differ with u n reasons are:

Allocation numbers issued by DHA around one month ago were like 3800 to 3900. Let us suppose that this number total increases uoto 4500 till general public launch. This means total area will be around 2250 acres. Let it be assumed 2500 acres which is 20000 kanals. As a rule of thumb 50% land will be consumed in development for roads, parks, schools ettc. So remaining is 10000 kanals. Out of 10000 kanals, 5000 kanals will be alloted against files already in market. Remaining 5000 kanal will be distributed among army quota, 1 A and 10 marla general public. Which means quantity of plots offered for public will be very less and onky lucky ones will get the plot in general public balloting.

Now comes the pricing issue. DHA multan will be offered to general public at price around 60 lacs, my pereception is it will be 63 lac and then 17 lac develpment charges. So total price of 1k will be 80 lacs in 3 years installment. My guess is price of DHA Multan file will further increase and will settle around 48-50 lac. It can momentarily go above 50 but realistic price is 48 -50. After public launch which is expected after eid we may see a short term dip in file price as public interest will be applying for ibstallment plots. However after balloting fir successfull applicants we will see tezi in market again. As very less people will be successfull in ballot we will see own money on installment plots and file will follow the trend. I see a price of 57 - 60 lacs in oct- niv this year. We will see further ruse again when balloting for plit numbers will be done. After that it will steadily move upward as per development work progress and market direction.

This is my very lay man analysis as im not a property guru, but it would be nice if you can highlight shortcomings in my analysis.
Regards,
Abdullah

Hassan replied on Sunday, May 29, 2016 02:50 AM PST 

@Abdullah. Good analysis. However, a prime variable in the above analysis is 50% of the area being allocated to roads, parks, schools etc. Is there a sound basis for this presumption?

CMY replied on Sunday, May 29, 2016 03:12 AM PST 

You are right member ship paid
files are in 3900 numbers. But affidavit numbering running into 8000 numbers. Meaning people still waiting to get membership paid or affidavits sitting ready with DHA Multan all cleared for land take over etc but will be transferred only after land owner and investors wish to sell at good rate and or peopleaalready transferred pay DHA for membership fee vouchers.

I don't know how many affidavit remaining to issued to be transfered and how many transfered but still waiting for people to deposit membership fees. Keep in mind after transfer it is holders choice when to pay membership fees. Actual land files close 9000 but to date inly 3900 plus paid membership fee. Rest either to be paid after or still not asked to be issued from DHA Multan by owner who gave land to DHA. Some time people keep affidavit for years.

CMY replied on Sunday, May 29, 2016 03:13 AM PST 

Please adjust calculation.

KB20 replied on Sunday, May 29, 2016 03:13 AM PST 

Very well explained 100% agreed with Abdullah.

AliSheikh replied on Sunday, May 29, 2016 03:25 AM PST 

As per my understanding and previous history as soon as intimation file is issued immediately allocation number is issued regardless of the membership fee.
Membership is necessary but it cannot change series of allocation number. It is also illogical if you purchase file in Jan. 15 and pay membership fee in Jan 16 so allocation number would be in 2016 series.

AHMAD HASSAN® replied on Sunday, May 29, 2016 04:02 AM PST 

Allocation numbers are above 4500++ now. Abdullah's calculations are correct.

Adie replied on Sunday, May 29, 2016 04:03 AM PST 

50% only for main boulevards/roads/hospitals/mosques/parks/golf-country-club/schools/public buildings, specially when you look at their proposed master plan ?

Abdullah replied on Sunday, May 29, 2016 04:16 AM PST 

Thanks for the feedback. CMY sb if total affidavit
files are 9000 and if we suppose all of them are included in phase 1 then total installment plots will be 9000 kanals that is also not a big number considering army quota also.

@Hassa., this 50% is a normal percentage used for estimating plits quantity. Even if u compare with prism, total area is around 65000 kanals and plots area ratio I think is even kessa than 50%. CMY can tell u exact figure for this.

CMY replied on Sunday, May 29, 2016 08:00 AM PST 

Largest ever phase of
DHA Lahore will be DHA Lahore phase 9 extension with expected area of 47000 kanal.

I am sorry I tried to explain DHA had 32000 kanal in its hands to draw map till March 2016. At that time DHA had land to issue 8000 one kanal land files.

People already given this 32000 kanal land to DHA & got affidavit issued had transfers done intimations issued and membership paid and made allocations and files fully ready for ballot are close to 4000 today.( 16000 kanal agri land issued allocations out of 32000 kanal agri land minimum as 1 file against 4 kanal land)

About 4000 to 5000 more files could be made into intimation /allocations to be included in ballot in near future before ballot. Not all these files are going to hit market as majority land owners will be holding on to paying membership fee after intimation issued or holding one to getting affidavit submitted to get intimation issued and to get them issued only when rate is high enough near their targets like today or during time from now till ballot day.



We are talking about same thing. I am saying DHA Multan price will be stuck for few months close to 45 lacs ( few lacs up and few lacs down but average near 45 and have a great risk of reversal from 45 back to possible under 40 lacs temporally for next few days to weeks due to profit talking in this steep rise and buyers holding buying of land files afer seeing high price and near launching buyers getting more attracted to installment booking at very low booking amounts instead of paying cash of 45 lacs in one go.

After launch if we all found out less than 1500 installments plots issued YES installments plots can go into big profit like Peshawar and keep rising till actail plots ballot day of land files and when installments plots will rise land files will rise too even before actual land file ballot and may be a lot more than 45 lacs. Land files in this case could be even 55 before ballot. But if DHA Multan booked 1000s of files of 10 marla and kanal and no profit/own seen on installments plots I dont see DHA Multan could go above 45 lacs till land files ballot announced and will have hard time to stay even close to 45 lacs till ballot.

You have no idea how market behaves. When installment option is available no one like to even touch a cash file. Until they are plots in land files ballot they will be not sought after like you see them today.

Assuming DHA issued 8000 land files pre ballot to land owners as they got land for them already . Same number of 8000 plots will be given in ballot to army . That will 16000 one kanal plots plus installments plots one kanal and 10 marla installments plots and about 1000 houses to be offered too in launch.

8000 Land owners + 8000 army plots + 2500 kanal plots on installments plus 5000 ten marla installments plots add all these and you got more plots than Prism DHA 9 Lahore :)

Even half of this number will be a lot for a new untested market of DHA Multan.

BUT even looking at all these numbers I think DHA Multan is great location strong management superb speed of land purchase and planning etc and strongly believe it could be huge gainer but only after this small hiccup due to steep rise adjustment in next few days or weeks. I have always said DHA Multan will be long term three year hold buy. I still strongly think it will fly high after ballot just like Prism today and will inshaAllah see min 150% gains in 3 years hold of my recommended price of 28.5 six months ago to all my 100s of clients. Bought truck load of files for them :)

My clients have a choice to make in short term I told them I expected 20 to 25% rise from purchase price of 28.5 lacs to 32 lacs by end of 2016. We already have reached wel above that targeted price.
You could still hold it for 3 years more and still enjoy gains of 100% plus from taday price of 43.5 lacs inshaAllah or you can lock your gains now to buy Prism 5 marla at great locations after selling DHA Multan in 40s. I have other option that I wont write and give via phone only as dealer jackup prices before my real clients get any benifits. Call me or send direct WhatsApp message for other options where more than 100% can be made safely and easily. In DHA 9 Prism You still have chance to gain same amount Prism because now with recent rise in DHA Multan price Prism is a lot more safer option with any possible political or economic crises or market correction due to budget taxes etc. In Lahore market easy transfers more buyer sellers dealers and more projects near completion.

Until DHA Multan was at 32 lacs that was a very low risk high gainer. Now with price of 45 lacs DHA Multan is medium risk and still good gainer inshAllah. If price go above 50 lacs for land files it will be high risk high gainer.

Lodhi replied on Sunday, May 29, 2016 01:48 PM PST 

Bros very nice discussions. Allocation is in 4980 series. DHA authorities are still short of 1500 x kanal plots for army 3000 x allotees .Army has aleady alloted plots to their employees in Peshawar and Bahawalpur.NOw next allotment is in 2018. So plot ballot is not possible before two years untill army allotees get
files. Only possible if some shuhadas or special cases are settled in DHA Multan. Sir CMYis realist whereas Mr Abdullah is optimistic. I myself is very optimistic so my opinion is more close to MrAbdullah. Anyhow very good and detailed analysis by both the individuals.
It may touch 5 millions as launching is after Eid. Expected price is 8 millions. Plot price 6.25 millions on installments of 3 x years and rest 1.75 millions development charges after ballot again on instalments of three years.

AHMAD HASSAN® replied on Saturday, May 28, 2016 09:43 PM PST 

WU will be very expensive way. Open a forign currency account in any Pakistan bank. Buy currency from open market and credit into your account. Some banks demands to keep cash for 30 days and some don't. You need to visit branch with all details of Saudi Bank account. Per transaction charges are RS. 1500. Banking currency rate will be applied. As per my calculations it will cost you arround 2.5% but WU or moneygram will cost you 4 to 5%. Another way is ATM if cash isn't much. It will also cost you 2.5% but there will be daily limit.

MIT® replied on Sunday, May 29, 2016 01:00 AM PST

you can try dollareast (Telegraphic transfer ) or other dealers like this.

Through banks (swift transfer), procedure is also not difficult, you do not need a foreign currency account. They will use your PKR account and apply exchange rate of current date. Simple

I am amazed how ignorant people are about REMITTANCES and LEGAL WHITE MONEY IN PAKISTAN. I have lived in Saudi Arabia for 10 years and still visit on and off.

99% of people in Saudi don’t have a clue how to handle their money in PAKISTAN. ( legally )

Most of the people in Saudi send money to Pakistan to support their families though WU, Banks or any other channel. These people don’t need any remittance records as the money is spent on necessities.

But Investors who want to invest in Pakistan need to maintain proper Record in Pakistan for their REMITTANCE to be declared " WHITE MONEY "

let me give you few examples where your HARD EARNED HALAL money is considered black in PAKISTAN.

1. You are travelling to Pakistan and greed comes over you. You put 1 lac Riyals in your laptop Bag and bring the money to Pakistan, convert the money through money changers and buy a plot or put in your bank. ( People do this thinking that their money is HALAL so no one will question them ). PAKISTAN CONSIDERS THIS MONEY BLACK.

2. You transfer your money into your XYZ relatives account and you pay from his account.

3. You send Dollars to your USD account in PAKISTAN , Invite money changers in the bank, convert your cash in PKR and deposit back into your account. ( PAKISTAN CONSIDERS THIS BLACK MONEY )

these are just few examples which people do with their money. there are many more.


NOW LETS COME TO THE POINT , HOW CAN YOU DECLARE YOUR MONEY WHITE OFFICIALLY RECOGNIZED BY PAKISTAN AND FBR.

1. Open a bank Account in PKR in PAKISTAN. I USE UBL because SABB uses UBL as their remittance partner in PAKISTAN. YOU need to know which bank is in partnership with your Saudi Bank.

2. SIMPLY USE AL RAJHI to transfer your money or use your online SABB account to transfer money to UBL. If you are sending money through SABB to UBL account, the money will be deposited within 3 days with all the details of your transaction. If you use SABB to transfer money into any other bank, it will reach UBL KARACHI and then UBL KARACHI will issue a LOCAL PO which will be deposited into the bank which you have mentioned. ( NO record of remittance will be shown )

Note: Rajhi mostly uses HBL to process remittances.


3. When you receive money in PAKISTAN, You should have TT number or reference number with you, Along with scanned copy of Saudi bank voucher or money changer voucher. Go to your UBL branch and ask them to ISSUE " PRC" against your remittances. Your branch will make an application and you will sign it , they will scan it and send to the concerned department over email. After few days or even weeks with continuous follow ups eventually your PRC will arrive and you can collect it.

THIS PRC IS ONLY THING WHICH IS ACCEPTABLE and FBR ACKNOWLEDGES as FOREIGN REMITTANCES.

I have explained small details about UBL. procedure varies between different banks. BUT Keep in mind you need PRC certificate to legalize your money.

Lastly do not send money in USD in Pakistan. Because if you change USD to PKR from bank itself you will loose lots of money as their exchange rate is very poor ( they make lots of money by converting into PKR ) and the only way to get PRC from bank for USD is if you use banks services. if you withdraw USD and use local money changer , NO one will issue PRC and FBR or the GOVT. of PAKISTAN will not recognize your remittances as legal.

ALL this is for people who are investing in Pakistan. Money which is being used for necessities do not need to go through all this procedure.

ONE LAST THING

Overseas people who want to avoid paying 0.6% WHT on their bank transaction must file their income tax on yearly basis.( HIRE A LAWYER WHO WILL DO ALL THIS ON YOUR BEHALF FOR A VERY SMALL FEE of around 10-15 thousand ) As soon as you file your return you will be automatically updated as " FILER" STATUS and no WHT will be applicable on you when you buy a property, CAR, CASH withdrawals, BANK transfers etc. etc. All the money which you are sending to Pakistan is exempted income. There is no income tax on your foreign income which you are sending to Pakistan. All overseas will declare their income as foreign remittances and declare their assets. You will return a NILL income tax return with all your assets and money LEGAL.

I request all overseas to go through these procedures again and again as i myself have gone through all of this ( I learned it the hard way with no one to guide me) so i want other people to benefit. These are just simple steps with no extra money involved, just some paper work and all your money and assets will be legal.

I am willing to give answers to all of your questions which will help you legalize your money in Pakistan. Please forgive me if I am wrong some where. Whatever I have written is a personal experience and may vary from one individual to another.

Golf View Residencia prospect as an investment ( post no 82985)

Arshad sb,

I have no such intention of misguiding anybody. I have only shared my view based on the facts available to me.

I personally hold 4 plots in GVR.

After the latest meeting between Malik Riaz and GVR investors the market improved after receiving assurances from MR that GVR will be completed.

I received bids of Rs 5.2 million for my plots situated in North side but decided to turn them down for the reasons I shared in my post.

If my optimism and analysis is incorrect only time will tell.

Arshad Ali replied on Sunday, May 29, 2016 04:26 AM PST 

Nabeel sb,first of all plz dont think that i m against GVR or its investors.But i m against the people like Malik Riaz who r fraud and they tell the lie with innocent investors.
I was part of that meeting with MR on 26th April but unable to understand when people will understand that MR was not telling the truth and people were happy with him.why u people dont make analysis what he was saying and why market improved.
Market improved because MR gave u following Khushkhabries
1.Dont pay remaining installments till further decision
2.there will b no surcharge on late payments
3.U can transfer your file without paying installments
4.Development will b started within 20-25 days

And i was laughing on innocent people like u who were believing on him that day.
Then market improved because our dealers brothers took advantage of these things ,as they started buying
files of down payments or with one or two paid installments on lower rates on that day and then within next 3,4 days and after it started drum beating that development is going to start and then they sold their files on higher rates with a very good profit in next 15 days and u people were happy that market is improving.No sir satta was improving.
So now after a month there is no chance of development and as i have already said NO CHANCE DUE TO STAY ORDER where is his promise of 20-25 days?
Market has started declining and now the people like u started drum beating for GVR just for nothing
Impact of what MR has said finished,Dealer brothers have won again.Ask any good lawyer,can MAlik Riaz start development in the presence of stay order?

Nabeel Khan® replied on Sunday, May 29, 2016 03:51 PM PST 

Dear Arshad sb,

I am not an associate or friend of Malik Riaz. I am just an invester who has invested in projects initiated by him after due consideration.

Contrary to your preception that Malik Riaz is a fraud I believe MR has set a new bench mark in Pakistan how housing societies ought to be developed. The example set by him is unprecedented when it comes to town planning and execution.

Quality of development in Bahria town Lahore, as witnessed by me, is far superior than any housing society I have come across including DHA.

I am well aware of the delays in some of his projects and difficulties faced by many investors. But on aggregate he has delivered on his promises which is no ordinary thing keeping in mind the functioning of the state and all the vested interests and mafias out there.

I well understand that stay order implies that status quo requires to be maintained by both parties and therefore no development possible.

But as I had stated in my previous post that Bahria Town, Lahore desperately needs access to Raiwind road and GVR concept was created at the first place to make this access so unique and beautiful that no other housing society can match it.

MR had announced that development shall begin in 20-25 days. What I understand from this is that negotiations are continuing in back channels with the concerned authorities for a resolution of this impasse.

I hope, as soon as the negotiations are complete the stay order will be vacated. Unlike the pml-n MaliK Riaz is quite keen to come out of the shadow of stay order :)

I cannot speak for any one else but I will hold on to my investment in GVR. I continue to remain very optimistic of a positive outcome.

Dear Friends,
I have sold my plot on Biana. The full payment should be received in a month times as per agreement on the Stamp paper but due to some issues for clearance of the plot it passed more than three months. Please advise if any issues to be faced on the deal.

Jazak Allah Khair

Nomi replied on Sunday, May 29, 2016 01:57 AM PST 

It means buyer cant claim the biana amout. It is up to you to continue the deal or tell him godbye.
