Godrej Vanantara

Godrej Vanantara is a 36-acre, 18-tower apartment township by Godrej Properties at Dinnepalya, CK Palya Road, off Bannerghatta Road in South Bengaluru. The project is registered with Karnataka RERA under PRM/KA/RERA/1250/304/PR/090126/008393, sits in the pre-launch market window with an indicative 2026 launch and a 31 December 2031 possession date, and offers four configurations: 2 BHK at 1,250 sq.ft. from Rs 1.57 Cr, 3 BHK Premium at 1,650 sq.ft. from Rs 2.08 Cr, 3 BHK Luxe at 2,000 sq.ft. from Rs 2.52 Cr, and 4.5 BHK Luxe at 2,900 sq.ft. from Rs 3.65 Cr. The pre-launch base rate band sits at approximately Rs 12,000-13,000 per sq.ft. Gran County Address keeps the wider Bengaluru context in view, especially when buyers are weighing format, commute patience, and how much certainty they need before shortlisting.

The address is South Bengaluru, not Whitefield. The location case is built around Bannerghatta Road as a mature residential and tech corridor, NICE Road as the eight-minute peripheral connector that opens Electronic City, Kanakapura Road, Mysore Road and Tumkur Road from a single junction, and the Pink Line, Green Line and Yellow Line metro corridors that progressively close the public-transport gap on this stretch over the next decade.

A 36-Acre Forest-First Township

Thirty-six acres at apartment-township densities is a deliberately low ratio for a project in South Bengaluru's premium band. With approximately 2,400 apartments planned across 18 towers, the campus runs at roughly 67 apartments per acre - dense enough to fund the clubhouse, amenity stack and infrastructure spine the project promises, sparse enough to keep approximately 80 per cent of the site open, landscaped or forest-covered. The signature outdoor element is a 4-acre private forest zone with walking trails, supported by a continuous pedestrian spine and approximately 1.2 km of jogging and cycling track. For comparison, generic Bannerghatta Road apartment supply over the past five years has pushed densities of 100-140 units per acre on far smaller plots; a 36-acre forest-anchored township at two-thirds that density is a different lifestyle category, not a different brochure spec.

A 65,000 Sq.Ft. Central Clubhouse

The clubhouse is the campus's lifestyle anchor and the building that makes the township programme defensible at scale. The 65,000 sq.ft. footprint is sized for a 2,400-apartment population without congestion, with a full gymnasium, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, spa, sauna, jacuzzi and salon on the wellness floor, squash, indoor badminton and indoor games in the sports zone, mini theatre and party halls in the social zone, co-working stations and a conference room in the professional zone, and guest rooms for visiting family. Outdoor sports - tennis, basketball, cricket practice net, golf putting area, skating rink, bonfire court and amphitheatre - sit on the connected podium so that resident programming is split across active and passive spaces by time of day.

2 BHK, 3 BHK Premium, 3 BHK Luxe, 4.5 BHK Luxe

The configuration mix is deliberately wide. The 2 BHK at 1,250 sq.ft. from Rs 1.57 Cr is the entry product - a working-couple home with an under-Rs 2 Cr ticket inside a township that would otherwise look out of reach for that band. The 3 BHK Premium at 1,650 sq.ft. from Rs 2.08 Cr is the core family configuration, where most of the bookings on Bannerghatta Road premium launches typically cluster. The 3 BHK Luxe at 2,000 sq.ft. from Rs 2.52 Cr adds a bathroom, a more generous living-dining proportion and utility depth without stepping up to the 4.5 BHK ticket. The 4.5 BHK Luxe at 2,900 sq.ft. from Rs 3.65 Cr is the multi-generational and HNI configuration, sized for households running parents, working couple, children and helper inside one home.

Pre-Launch Pricing Window

The pre-launch window is the only slot in a project's lifecycle when a buyer is not paying the brand premium that gets built in at hard launch. Godrej Properties' Bengaluru launches across the past three years have typically traded pre-launch to post-launch in a 5-9 per cent base-rate band - Godrej Aveline at Yelahanka settled at roughly Rs 11,000-11,500 per sq.ft. post-launch from a similar pre-launch slot; Godrej Parkshire on the Hoskote corridor moved from approximately Rs 10,830 per sq.ft. at pre-launch to Rs 11,900 per sq.ft. post-launch. The Vanantara pre-launch rate at Rs 12,000-13,000 per sq.ft. is therefore an opening rather than a final number; the buyer who books inside the pre-launch window receives the developer's pre-launch payment plan and pricing before both step up at hard launch.

The visual narrative of Godrej Vanantara, once official renders are live, will cover six categories - the aerial of the 36-acre site, the tower elevations, the central clubhouse and pool podium, the 4-acre forest and landscape spine, the road-network and arrival sequence, and the interior-finish renders for the four configurations. Until the launch package is released, the easiest mental model is Godrej Aveline's facade vocabulary applied at a larger campus footprint with a forest-first landscape programme that is specific to the Bannerghatta Road site.

Expected aerial: 18 towers organised in two phases of nine each, arranged around the central clubhouse podium, with the 4-acre forest threading through the campus and the pedestrian spine connecting forecourt to far boundary. Expected elevations: contemporary high-rise vocabulary at 3B+G+32 - three basement levels of parking, ground floor amenity and retail, and 32 upper residential floors per tower.

The 36-acre master plan organises the campus around three layers:

1. Arrival and clubhouse layer. A formal entry forecourt from CK Palya Road, security plaza with biometric and RFID access, and the central 65,000 sq.ft. clubhouse podium sit at the campus's centre of gravity, equidistant from most tower clusters. 2. Tower grid. 18 towers are arranged in two phases of nine each, with three basement levels of parking, ground-floor amenity and retail provision, and 32 upper residential floors per tower. The cluster geometry separates Phase 1 and Phase 2 tower groups so that residents who move in during early phases are not living inside an active construction zone. 3. Forest and landscape ribbon. The signature 4-acre private forest threads through the campus, supported by the central pedestrian spine and the 1.2 km jogging and cycling loop that wraps around the green zones.

Land use is expected to split roughly 20 per cent built footprint (tower plates plus clubhouse plus utility blocks), 80 per cent open, landscaped or forest-covered, with the internal road network, basement ramps and service corridors running through the built-area allocation rather than the open-space allocation.

Godrej Vanantara is the 36-acre, 18-tower apartment township by Godrej Properties at Dinnepalya, CK Palya Road off Bannerghatta Road in South Bengaluru. Where Godrej Aveline at Yelahanka anchors the developer's North Bengaluru airport-corridor presence and Godrej Soukya Road at Hoskote covers the East Bengaluru row-villa cohort, Godrej Vanantara is the South Bengaluru apartment-township play - a Bannerghatta-Electronic City catchment buyer with a township-format preference and a 2026-2031 construction patience.

The project is registered with Karnataka RERA under PRM/KA/RERA/1250/304/PR/090126/008393 and is in the pre-launch market window, with the formal launch expected through the 2026 booking cycle and the indicative possession date set at 31 December 2031. Pricing, configurations and amenity scope on this page reflect the most current pre-launch positioning; absolute numbers may be revised at hard launch.

Three forces decide whether a Bengaluru township launch is a serious investment or a marketing brochure: who built it, where it sits, and what the rest of the corridor is doing around it. Godrej Vanantara compounds all three.

Who built it. Godrej Properties closed FY25 with Rs 29,444 crore in sales bookings - the highest in the company's history - 25.73 million sq.ft. sold, 18.4 million sq.ft. delivered, and a development portfolio approaching 200 million sq.ft. of saleable area across India. Listed on BSE and NSE, parented by the 127-year-old Godrej Group, the developer carries a balance sheet floor that does not depend on real estate sales velocity for survival - a material consideration for any buyer committing to a 2031 handover.

Where it sits. The 36-acre parcel sits at Dinnepalya on CK Palya Road, off Bannerghatta Road in South Bengaluru. Bannerghatta Road is one of the city's two South Bengaluru tech-and-residential corridors; NICE Road, eight minutes from the project gate, is the peripheral connector that opens Electronic City Phase 1 (8.8 km), Kanakapura Road, Mysore Road and Tumkur Road from a single junction. Greenwood High Bannerghatta IGCSE Campus is 180 metres from the site, Apollo Hospital is 4 km, Fortis is 5 km and Jayadeva Cardiac is 7 km.

What the corridor is doing. Bannerghatta Road's premium new-launch absorption has hardened through 2024-2026, with developers like Prestige and Brigade pricing in the Rs 12,000-15,000 per sq.ft. band on comparable South Bengaluru launches. The Pink Line metro extension (Gottigere-Nagawara) is in active construction and is expected to bring a metro head to Kalena Agrahara at 4.3 km from the project; the Green Line at Konanakunte Cross (~7 km) and the Yellow Line at Electronic City Station (~9 km) already serve the broader corridor. Electronic City's continued tech employment absorption underwrites the buyer-side demand at this catchment.

The location story is South Bengaluru. Dinnepalya on CK Palya Road sits inside the Bannerghatta Road residential and tech corridor, with NICE Road as the peripheral connector opening Electronic City, Kanakapura Road, Mysore Road and Tumkur Road in different directions from a single eight-minute drive. Schools, hospitals and retail are dense inside the 4-7 km radius.

The buyer should still test the route. Bannerghatta Road traffic, Silk Board congestion, peak-hour movement to Electronic City and the actual project gate experience can change the lived case. Drive the route at your real office and school timings.

Detailed connectivity, schools, hospitals and tech-park distances are covered on the location page.

For a 2,400-apartment, Rs 1.57 Cr+ township, the amenity programme is the lifestyle commitment. Buyers should check clubhouse capacity, indoor-outdoor pool delivery, sports-court usability, the forest and walking-loop programming, kids and senior zones, visitor parking, security, maintenance estimate and phase-wise delivery sequence.

The amenity stack at Godrej Vanantara - 65,000 sq.ft. clubhouse, 4-acre private forest, 1.2 km jogging-cycling track, indoor and outdoor pools, tennis, squash, basketball, mini theatre, co-working, party halls and guest rooms - is sized for the 2,400-apartment population. Ask which facilities are Phase 1 commitments, which arrive with Phase 2, and what the monthly operating cost is likely to be.

65,000 Sq.Ft. Clubhouse Programme

The central clubhouse consolidates facilities that most projects spread across multiple buildings:

• Fully-equipped gymnasium with cardio bay, strength bay and stretch zone
• Indoor 25m lap pool and outdoor leisure pool
• Spa, sauna, jacuzzi, salon
• Yoga and aerobics studio plus outdoor yoga deck
• Squash court, indoor badminton, indoor games (table tennis, billiards, carrom)
• Mini theatre for resident screenings, party halls with catering provision
• Co-working stations and conference room with high-speed connectivity
• Cafe lounge, reading lounge, guest rooms for visiting family

Sports, Wellness and Outdoor

• Tennis court (full-size, floodlit)
• Basketball court, multipurpose sports courts
• Cricket practice net, golf putting area, skating rink
• Bonfire court, amphitheatre, nature trails
• 4-acre private forest with walking paths and seating nodes
• 1.2 km jogging and cycling track wrapping the campus
• Outdoor exercise deck and calisthenics rig
• Kids' activity zones graded by age, sandpit, water play
• Senior citizens' area with low-impact equipment and shaded seating

Community, Safety and Infrastructure

• 24/7 security staff, CCTV surveillance, controlled entry/exit gates
• Video door phone in every apartment
• Power backup for common areas; provision for essential-load backup at the apartment level
• Sewage Treatment Plant with treated-water reuse for landscape and flushing (dual plumbing)
• Rainwater harvesting at tower and community level
• Solar offset for clubhouse and landscape lighting; EV charging provision in basement parking

Indicative pre-launch pricing for the four apartment configurations. Final unit-wise pricing locks at the formal launch; budget approximately 15-20 per cent over the base price for stamp duty, registration, GST, deposits, club membership, maintenance corpus, floor-rise and preferred-location charges, and a baseline interior fit-out.

All-in cost guidance: budget approximately 15-20 per cent over the unit base price for GST (5 per cent on under-construction units), Karnataka stamp duty (5 per cent and registration 2 per cent on agreement values above Rs 45 lakh), legal and infrastructure deposits (BESCOM power load, BWSSB or borewell water, sewerage connection), club membership, maintenance corpus and a baseline interior fit-out. The detailed cost-sheet, EMI tables and 10:10:80 payment plan are on the price page.

The project has a credible South Bengaluru thesis: Godrej brand, Bannerghatta Road catchment maturity, NICE Road and Electronic City access, 36-acre township footprint and a Karnataka RERA registration already on file. The patience requirement is the 2031 possession horizon and the absence of an operational metro head walking-distance from the gate today.

This is a shortlist-with-discipline project. It fits buyers who want a South Bengaluru township-format home, can wait through the construction cycle, are willing to verify documents before paying an EOI, and have a long-horizon end-use or capital-appreciation view rather than a near-term rental yield case.

From a market-perspective standpoint, three factors carry weight:

Developer credibility. Godrej Properties is one of three or four listed national developers active in Bengaluru's premium segment. Delivery record matters more for a 2,400-apartment township than for a small project, because amenity delivery, infrastructure handover and phased completion are all execution-heavy. Godrej's FY25 numbers, listed-disclosure transparency and active Bengaluru pipeline (Aveline, Parkshire, Soukya Road, Reserve, Woodland, Aravya Estate) are the evidence base.

Micro-market readiness. Bannerghatta Road has been a mature South Bengaluru residential corridor for over a decade, with established schools, hospitals, malls and retail. NICE Road's operational connector status, Electronic City's continued employment depth, and the Pink Line metro extension in active construction together close most of the corridor-stage questions a buyer would have. The remaining patience is the Pink Line operational date and Bannerghatta Road peak-hour traffic.

Pricing context. At an indicative Rs 12,000-13,000 per sq.ft., Godrej Vanantara prices into the South Bengaluru premium new-launch band where comparable projects from Prestige, Brigade and Sobha sit. The pre-launch slot is the controlled-allocation moment before the developer's typical 5-9 per cent rate step-up at hard launch.

A detailed market read with comparable-project analysis is on the reviews page.

Godrej Properties is the real estate arm of the 127-year-old Godrej Group, listed on BSE and NSE under GODREJPROP, and one of the top listed Indian residential developers by sales bookings. Its active Bengaluru portfolio spans Godrej Aveline (Yelahanka), Godrej Parkshire (Hoskote), Godrej Soukya Road (Hoskote row villas), Godrej Reserve (Devanahalli plots), Godrej Woodland (Sarjapur plots) and Godrej Aravya Estate (Doddaballapur plots).

For Vanantara buyers, the developer story is a comfort signal, not a substitute for project-level diligence. The South Bengaluru township still needs its own RERA, cost-sheet, payment-plan and water-source checks.

Godrej Properties Ltd. is the real estate arm of the 127-year-old Godrej Group, founded as a listed entity in 1990 and currently among the top five listed Indian residential developers. The company closed FY25 with Rs 29,444 crore in sales bookings - the highest in its history - 25.73 million sq.ft. sold and 18.4 million sq.ft. delivered, anchored by 14 new project additions during the year. The development portfolio stands at approximately 200 million sq.ft. of saleable area across India.

In Bengaluru, the active Godrej book includes Godrej Aveline (Yelahanka, Airport Road), Godrej Parkshire (Hoskote / Soukya Road Extension), Godrej Soukya Road (the row-villa community adjacent to Parkshire), Godrej Vanantara (this project, Bannerghatta Road), Godrej Reserve (Devanahalli plotted), Godrej Woodland (Sarjapur plotted) and Godrej Aravya Estate (Doddaballapur plotted).
