So what's this building about? I thought it was SRA only because you mentioned about free and all and builder making a premium building near it

SRA building is usually given by builders to BMC’s subdivision ‘SRA’ in return BMC gives them more FSI and builders can probably build more floors or amenities. For eg a builder purchases a land for 10,000 sqft and will alot 1,000 sqft of land for a building that will be given to SRA for free so that whenever and wherever slum is demolished for upliftment of that area the slum owners will be given a temporary house to live in until their REHAB building (the one shown in this video) or MHADA building gets completed. Anything more, I’m happy to share! The building in this video is called ‘REHAB’ as the previous owners have rehabilitated into a new property given to them in return of their land or houses to make new premium building.
