On record
This 465-space, three-floor-plus-terrace parking complex covering 14,611 sq m has run well below capacity since opening, filling to barely two-and-a-half floors even at peak times, despite parking being free; a planned hop-on hop-off shuttle service to draw users to the facility never materialised.
The official record states: "GTDC chairman Nilesh Cabral said usage improved traffic in the surrounding area, but did not directly explain the low occupancy; the promised shuttle service to boost usage was never implemented."
“Ninety crore, 465 spaces, free of charge, and still barely two and a half floors full.”— Blunderlust Editorial Desk

Visitor reviews Satire
“Parked free of charge on the second floor with about four hundred empty bays for company.”
“Ninety crore and fourteen thousand square metres of parking, and Panaji has never managed to fill three floors of it.”
“The shuttle that was meant to bring people here from the city centre never arrived, which explains rather a lot.”
