One of the most overlooked details when buying a home in India
We all talk about super built-up area.
But rarely do we check the UDS — Undivided Share of Land.
When you buy an apartment, you’re not just buying the walls and the floor plan.
You’re buying a legal share of the land it stands on.
✅ Why does it matter?
That land share decides your stake if the building ever goes for redevelopment.
- More UDS = stronger negotiation power
- Better resale value
- Real ownership you can count on long-term

✅ What should you watch for?
Builders love showcasing flat sizes and amenities — but often gloss over UDS.
It’s easy to overlook during site visits and brochure tours.
✅ A detail worth checking
High-rise towers with hundreds of units on a small plot might mean each owner gets only a sliver of land.
It’s not necessarily bad — but you deserve to know before you buy.
🏠 Key takeaway
Buying a home isn’t just about the brand or the location.
It’s about knowing exactly what you own.
💡 If you (or someone you know) is house-hunting, make sure this is on your checklist.
