Capital Smart City Islamabad

Capital Smart City Islamabad

Capital Smart City Islamabad is the first housing society in Pakistan that is being commissioned on the smart city concept. The concept of a Capital Smart City is based on the collection, storage, and deduction from real-time data. The Islamabad CSC  is a project of Habib Rafiq Limited and its counterpart in the project namely Future Development Holding. The Capital Smart City Islamabad has been planned to provide eco-friendly and sustainable living to residents. CSC is set to be located near the Thalian interchange on the Motorway M2 in close proximity to New Islamabad International Airport. This is the only housing society, approved by RDA, to be granted formal permission of FWO and the National Highway Authority to construct a motorway interchange. Since its debut in 2018, CSC Islamabad has seen an increase in demand. Location and developer’s repute are two main points that real estate investors in Pakistan consider before making an investment. When it comes to the reputation of the developer, Habib Rafiq Limited has an excellent record of developing the Defense Housing Authority, Bahria Towns, Multan International Airport, etc. Apart from this, HRL is also the developer of Royal Orchard Multan and all upcoming Royal Orchard Societies in Pakistan.

Capital Smart City NOC

Capital Smart City Islamabad falls in the territory, which comes under the jurisdiction of Rawalpindi Development Authority. The good news for investors and potential investors is that the RDA has already approved the Capital Smart City NOC. There are a bunch of other housing societies in the area where Capital Smart City is located but there are almost zero societies that have acquired NOC from RDA. Not only this, there is a general perception that RDA takes up to months and sometimes years to grant societies their NOC, but comparatively, Capital Smart City NOC was granted in record time. This all proves the legitimacy and potential of the project.

If you want to confirm the status of NOC by yourself, you can check it on the official website of RDA. This project is listed under the list of legal/approved housing societies. Sometimes the Capital Smart City NOC status can appear as ‘under-review’ on the official website of RDA. That doesn’t indicate that it is an illegal project or does not have its NOC. The only reason behind it is that when a society is extended, it has to apply for NOC all over again, RDA conducts all its reviews again, and then the NOC is reviewed. CSC Islamabad keeps adding new blocks or expanding, and every time it does so, Capital Smart City owners and developers fulfill their legal obligation and apply for renewal of NOC. That neither makes the society illegal nor its already acquired NOC null and void.
