Featured Image of Prestige Grove Park Maintenance Charges


At Prestige Grove Park, you will likely pay about ₹8 to ₹12 per sq ft a month. That is the usual range for premium high-rise townships in Mumbai. So a 750 sq ft 2 BHK would pay about ₹6,000 to ₹9,000 a month. A 1,350 sq ft 3 BHK would pay about ₹10,800 to ₹16,200 a month. At possession, you will also pay 12 to 24 months in advance, plus any sinking fund. Prestige will confirm the exact rate closer to handover.

Estimated Monthly Maintenance by Home Size


These are estimates only, based on typical rates for premium Mumbai high-rises. The actual rate will come from the builder at possession.

Home Size At ₹8 per sq ft At ₹10 per sq ft At ₹12 per sq ft
Smallest 2 BHK 750 sq ft ₹6,000 ₹7,500 ₹9,000
Largest 2 BHK 950 sq ft ₹7,600 ₹9,500 ₹11,400
Smallest 3 BHK 1,100 sq ft ₹8,800 ₹11,000 ₹13,200
Largest 3 BHK 1,350 sq ft ₹10,800 ₹13,500 ₹16,200

GST may apply on top if your monthly bill crosses ₹7,500 and the society crosses the turnover limit.

What Your Maintenance Pays For


Maintenance covers the daily running and upkeep of the whole township. At a project of this size, that includes a lot.

  • Security staff at the gates, lobbies and basements.
  • Housekeeping for lobbies, corridors, gardens and common areas.
  • Upkeep of 6 to 7 fast lifts and 1 to 2 service lifts in each tower.
  • Running the 0.7-acre clubhouse, including the pool, gym and games zone.
  • Care of about 2.8 acres of gardens, courtyards and decks.
  • Power for common lighting, pumps and basement ventilation.
  • Upkeep of three basement levels and over 150 EV charging points.
  • Water supply, sewage treatment and daily waste handling for 1,500 homes.

Why Maintenance Is Higher in Tall Townships


Towers of 45 to 50 floors need more lifts, pumps and fire systems than low-rise buildings. They also need more staff for security and cleaning across a large site. A full clubhouse and large gardens add to the running cost as well.

On the plus side, 1,500 homes share these costs. Large townships often spread fixed costs better than small buildings with the same amenities.

One-Time Charges at Possession


When you take possession, you will likely pay a few one-time amounts. These usually go to the society once it takes charge.

Charge What It Covers Typical Practice
Advance Maintenance Running costs for the first months 12 to 24 months paid upfront
Sinking Fund Major repairs in the future One-time or yearly amount
Corpus Fund Long-term reserve for the society One-time amount
Society Formation Fees Legal costs to register the society Small one-time amount
Utility Deposits Electricity and water connections As per the local body

Ask for the exact figures for each charge before you sign the agreement.

GST on Maintenance Charges


GST at 18% can apply to society maintenance in some cases. Two conditions must both apply for this to happen.

  • Your monthly maintenance bill is above ₹7,500 per member.
  • The society's yearly turnover is above ₹20 lakh.

If both apply, the society charges GST on the full monthly amount, not just the extra. For a large 3 BHK, this can add a noticeable sum to your yearly cost.

How to Keep Maintenance Costs Fair


Once the society takes over, residents have a say in how money is spent. Here is how to keep costs in check.

  • Ask for a yearly budget and audited accounts from the society.
  • Compare quotes for security, housekeeping and lift contracts.
  • Push for solar panels and LED lighting in common areas to cut power bills.
  • Check whether the society bills on carpet area or on saleable area.
  • Attend society meetings and vote on major spending.

Maintenance vs Value: Does It Pay Off?


Good maintenance protects the value of your home over the years. Well-kept lobbies, lifts and gardens help your home sell or rent faster. In a branded township by Prestige Group, strong upkeep adds to resale appeal in Borivali.

Think of maintenance as part of your total monthly cost, along with your EMI. Plan both together so your budget stays comfortable after possession.
