Puravankara has entered into a joint development agreement (JDA) for a 6.4-acre land parcel in Sarjapur, Bengaluru, with an estimated Gross Development Value (GDV) of ₹1,000 crore. According to the company's regulatory filing, the project has a saleable area of approximately 0.8 million square feet and will be developed as a residential community catering to the growing demand in this emerging corridor. The site is strategically located in Kaggalipura Village, Sarjapura Hobli, offering connectivity through Sarjapur Road and the Outer Ring Road, as well as easy access to the Electronic City technology corridor and other major employment centres. The company noted that the micro-market continues to witness strong end-user demand amid limited supply from organised developers, making it an attractive destination for IT professionals and homebuyers. As per The Economic Times, the company will develop the housing project through a collaborative agreement with a landowner, with the JDA model allowing real estate developers to share revenue or profit with landowners while minimizing initial investment.
This latest addition further strengthens Puravankara's development pipeline in the city, as reported by Business Standard. The acquisition brings the company's total potential GDV from acquisitions and JDAs in Q1FY27 to ₹5,200 crore. In Q1FY27 alone, Puravankara announced four land transactions spanning approximately 41.93 acres with a cumulative development potential of around 4.23 million square feet and a total estimated GDV of ₹5,200 crore. According to The Economic Times, real estate players are increasingly acquiring land through the JDA route as it involves less capital expenditure compared to outright purchase of land parcels. The asset-light JDA model enables efficient capital deployment while expanding the company's presence across high-growth markets.
Ashish Puravankara, Managing Director of Puravankara Limited, highlighted Bengaluru as a key growth market, stating that the joint development reinforces the company's commitment to expanding across high-potential urban corridors. Mallanna Sasalu, CEO of Puravankara Limited, noted that the company's strategy reflects a balanced growth approach focused on scale and capital efficiency. He emphasized that the Sarjapur project offers significant long-term growth potential due to improving infrastructure, strong residential demand, and limited availability of branded housing projects. The company's expansion strategy focuses on securing quality land parcels supported by strong infrastructure, employment hubs, and sustained homebuyer demand across high-potential urban corridors.
According to Business Standard, as of March 31, 2026, Puravankara has completed 95 projects totalling approximately 57 million square feet across nine cities including Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Coimbatore, Mangaluru, Kochi, Mumbai, Pune, and Goa. The company's total land bank stands at approximately 40 million square feet, with ongoing projects adding up to 36.69 million square feet. The company demonstrated strong financial performance in Q4 FY26, with net profit of ₹113.24 crore compared to a net loss of ₹85.82 crore in Q4 FY25, while net sales surged 177.33% YoY to ₹1,501.92 crore.
