Bangalore Turf Club located in the heart of the city will be shifted to a new
location, Chikkajala in Devanahalli taluk. Bangalore Turf Club with an
investment of Rs. 350 crores has been planned to be set up in Devanahalli.
Residential Development
A slew of infrastructure projects proposed by the government are buoying
the market for residential and commercial projects. The areas of Hebbal,
Bellary Road, Yelahanka, Dodballapur have witnessed real estate
development since the opening of the International airport. The master plan
from Bangalore International Airport Area Planning Authority (BIAAPA) has
zoned specific areas for residential, commercial and industrial activities. The
social infrastructure in the areas is also growing with international schools
and hospitals propelling the areas around the airport to turn self-sufficient.
A number of IT parks, MNCs and other business offices are also in close
vicinity. The location is witnessing expansion in both commercial as well as
residential real estate. Right from affordable housing to high-end projects, all
kind of residential projects can be seen here. Some of the renowned builders
of Bangalore like ZED-BCIL, Sobha, Ozone Group, Prestige Group,
Puravankara, Ramky Estates, Nagarjuna have already launched some
premium residential projects here. Most of the housing projects comprises of
2 and 3 BHK apartments and villas. Property prices, on an average, range
anywhere from Rs 3,000 per sq ft upwards with an appreciation of 10-15 per
cent expected annually.
Challenges and Future Outlook
Even as several infrastructure projects are underway, there could be some
major hurdles in the way of Bangalore becoming an aerotropolis. A recent
study conducted by Centre for Sustainable Development (CSD) proved the
area is not suitable for large-scale developments because of acute water
shortage. While Kempegowda International Airport (KIA) uses recycled water
with pipelines, other places do not have alternatives to groundwater. Data
available with the Department of Mines and Geology shows that the
groundwater in Devanahalli is already over-exploited.
Apart from water shortage, Bangalore is already battling with haphazard
development and limited connectivity. The KIA is about 40 km from
Bengaluru but connected only via road. Proposed infrastructure projects such
as the Metro rail connectivity and ring-roads are unlikely to be completed
before 2020, say experts. This puts a lot of stress on development and if left
unfettered, the airport city and aerotropolis may turn into an unplanned
extension of Bangalore.
Land around the airport is expensive and high FAR cannot be allowed due to
aviation norms. The question arises that is it financially viable for developers
to come up with residential projects in the area? Lot of developers are
acquiring land in this corridor and with the allowed FAR, it is imperative for
the developers to implement new innovative products with value added
services to enable them to charge a premium in order to make the project
viable, says Srinivasan Gopalan, CEO, Ozone Group.
Two other cities from South India, Kochi and Hyderabad are also in the run to
become Indias first major aerotropolis. Presently, Bangalore has an edge
because of its fast paced development and strong growth drivers. Experts
believe that for the dream of an aerotropolis to become a reality, the
infrastructure and connectivity projects planned around the airport must be
completed in the next five to eight years.
