3 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY For the past two decades, Bangalore has been the fastest growing city of India. Bangalore is termed as World City being established Silicon Valley of Asia; in addition it has multi-cultural population, good education & social infrastructure, and improving physical infrastructure. Bangalore s residential market interests all stakeholders developers, landowners and investors on account of large, educated, young, double income household and growing migrant population. Many prominent national and international developers have entered Bangalore residential market and more are expected to join in the coming years. Currently, the most promising residential micro-markets in Bangalore are Outer Ring Road (ORR), Whitefield and Bangalore North. Old Madras Road and Mysore Road micro-markets have untapped potential for residential development. Old Madras Road is gaining traction faster due to its proximity to IT hubs Whitefield & ORR, Bangalore International Airport and City Center. In Apartment market, except budget category (less than INR 25L), residential products across other segments are under downward pressure owing to high activity levels. Even in the mid category (INR 25L 5L), developers have launched oversized apartment projects. Bangalore is one of the most promising markets for Villa projects in India. However, as per current statistics, the market has very high expectation from this product. Many under construction projects may take a longer timelines for completion. Bangalore cannot afford to witness same number of project launches this year as 211. If the activity level does not drop to half of 211 then, Bangalore residential market is likely to face an oversupply situation. Last year, Bangalore witnessed entry of new residential products namely Villament and Branded Homes. Villament projects have been launched in Off Central and suburban locations by developers like Habitat Ventures, LGCL and Salarpuria. An international company Westcourt has launched a Branded Home project near Mekhri Circle, Bellary Road. Bangalore s residential segment is likely to grow annually at 15% for next 3 years. In 212, Bangalore is pegged to absorb 23, residential units. The capital value would appreciate between 12% to 2% across different micro-markets on account of rising construction cost and land price. South East (SE) quadrant micro-markets Whitefield, ORR and Sarjapur Road will remain active in short to medium term owing to proximity to established IT economic hubs. However, next growth direction would be North East (NE) quadrant Old Madras Road & Bangalore North (Hennur Road, Thanisandra Road and Bellary Road). Although, Bangalore North may face over supply situation in short term owing to over enthusiasm of developers towards this micro-market, the long term potential of this micro-market is very high. Economic outlook for the city remains strong in coming years as many large IT/ITeS, Engineering and Automobile MNCs have aggressive growth plans for the city. This would ensure healthy growth rate in residential segment. As per absorption analysis, Bangalore s buyers are more sensitive compared to other southern Indian cities towards quality of the project, amenities and unit sizes.

4 Bangalore boasts of the highest growth rate among all Indian cities, with double digit annual growth rate of IT/ITeS sector. Currently population of the Bangalore Urban District is 9.6 million and is expected to grow to 14 million by 221. Bangalore owes its multi-fold economic growth since 199s to IT/ITeS industry. The wealth created by the new industry has had a multiplier effect leading to a real estate boom, a flourishing retail and leisure industry. The knowledge economy of Bangalore has transformed it from a small town, peaceful, pensioners paradise to a global technology hub. Post 1991, economic liberalization led to the growth of knowledge economy thereby leading to migration of educated middle class to the city; exposure of the young urban population to global standard of living; availability of housing finance and private participation in real estate sector set the tone of social infrastructure residential, retail, education and others in the city. Bangalore is expected to continue to follow upward prosperity 2 trajectory in coming decades as well. As per Mckinsey, by 23 among all Indian cities Bangalore would have highest per capita GDP.

6 GROWTH OF BANGALORE METROPOLITAN CITY TIME LINE Bangalore founded by Kempe Gowda British established Bangalore Cantonment LEGISLATION STRUCTURE Bangalore also called Bengaluru, is the capital of the Indian state of Karnataka. Located on the Deccan Plateau in the south-eastern part of Karnataka, Bangalore is India's third most populous city and fifthmost populous urban agglomeration. Bangalore is well known as a hub for India's information technology sector. It is among the top 1 preferred entrepreneurial locations in the world. A succession of South Indian dynasties ruled the region of Bangalore until in 1537 AD Kempe Gowda a feudatory ruler under the Vijayanagara Empire established a mud fort considered to be the foundation of modern Bangalore. Following transitory occupation by Maratha and Mughal, the city remained under the Mysore kingdom. Bangalore continued to be a cantonment of the British and a major city of the Princely State of Mysore which existed as a nominally sovereign entity of the British Raj. Following the independence of India in 1947, Bangalore became the capital of Mysore state, and later Karnataka. DEVELOPMENT OF THE CITY Today as a large city and growing metropolis, Bangalore is home to numerous public sector heavy industries, software companies, aerospace, telecommunications, and defence organisations. Bangalore is known as the Silicon Valley of India because of its position as the nation's leading IT exporter. A demographically diverse city, Bangalore is a major economic and cultural hub and the second fastest growing major metropolis in India. 5

Between 1898 and 192, Bangalore City Municipality developed new extensions - Chamrajpet, Malleshwaram and Basavanagudi - The cantonment witnessed the adoption of the British model broader streets with avenue tress, sidewalks for pedestrians and zoning regulations that segregated residences and workplaces. Towns like Richmond Town, Cleveland Town, Frazer Town, Cox Town, Langford Town were developed in this part of the development Integration of Pette and Cantonment regions While BCC concentrated its efforts on maintaining the city clean and beautiful, the CITB paid attention to develop new extensions to meet the housing demand. Between 1945 and 1976, CITB acquired 1,411 hectares of land and distributed 68,3 sites. It developed new locations including Jayanagar, Indiranagar, Rajajinagar and Koramangala The Metropolitan Planning Board and Town & Country Planning Act gave institutional framework for city development The ODP provided the vision for planned growth of the city BDA led allotment of residential sites to individuals.

10 In 211, Bangalore residential market witnessed high activity levels in terms of project launches and absorption rate; but, in 212, developers need to be cautious with new project launches in order to safeguard balance in the market. Bangalore cannot afford to witness same number of project launches this year as that of 211. If the activity level does not drop to half of 211 then, Bangalore residential market will face over supply situation. Except Budget category (less than INR 25L), product across other segments are under pressure with high activity. Even in Mid category (INR 25L 5L), developers have launched sizeable projects which may take longer time for completion. In recent past, Bangalore witnessed entry of large national and international developers namely Pashmina Developers, Peninsula, Pruska, Westcourt Real Estate, Unitech, Essar and many more. Integrated Funds (development arms of Private Equity Fund) have also acquired land across Bangalore region Jayanagar, Sarjapur Road, Whitefield and other micro-markets. Super Luxury projects have been redefined through launches of Embassy Boulevard, RMZ Latitude, Prestige White Meadows, Godrej Platinum and serviced apartments by Westcourt. Prior to 211, Bangalore never witnessed such high activity levels for products priced over INR 5CR. Most of the developers such as Prestige, Brigade, TATA, Puravankara and others are enthusiastic with their experience in Budget category (less than INR 25 L). In 211, Bangalore remained one of the favored real estate markets for Private Equity Funds resulting in their sizeable participation in self-liquidating residential asset class. 15% CAGR for the period % Price Appreciation 2,6 Units Total Absorbtion in 211 2,31 Apartment Units 568 Villa/Row House Units 232 ~44, Units New Project Launches in ,663 Apartment Units 5,297 Villa & Row House Units 55,4 Units Total Availability 49,568 Apartment Units 5,768 Villa/Row House Units 3% - 6% Average Rental Yield Rate for Class A Apartment 4% - 7% Average Rental Yield Rate for Class A Villa 9

11 Till now, the most vibrant residential micromarkets were located in SE quadrant; but now micro-markets of NE quadrant are also witnessing high residential activity. Currently, Bangalore's most promising residential micro markets are ORR, Sarjapur Road, Whitefield and Bangalore North. Bangalore North, like any emerging micro-market during nascent phase is witnessing high activity level. Bangalore's Central and Off-Central locations have high potential but availability of land at reasonable price remains a challenge. However, many sizeable mixed-use developments along Old Airport Road, Vivek Nagar and Koramangala are expected in next few years on account of relocation of large corporate houses and availability of land through slum redevelopment programs. Old Madras Road & Mysore Road micro-markets have untapped potential available for residential developments. Old Madras Road would gain traction faster due to its strategic location [proximity to IT hubs Whitefield & ORR, Bangalore International Airport and City Center]. Hosur Road is showing signs of oversupply in residential segment on account of large developments and maturing economic hub in this region. Bangalore's cosmopolitan culture has space for different formats in residential developments Apartment, Villa and Row Houses. Bangalore buyers have shown strong liking for lifestyle amenities, theme based and good quality in residential developments. Bangalore is one of the most promising markets for Villa projects in India. However, as per current statistics, the market has an over expectation from this product. Many under construction projects may take longer timeline for completion. Most active micro-markets for Villa & Row Houses developments are Bangalore North, Sarjapur Road, Whitefield and Hosur Road. As per absorption analysis, Bangalore's buyers are more sensitive compared to other southern Indian cities towards quality of the project, amenities and unit sizes. In this city, endusers are ready to pay reasonable premium across different categories towards these aspects of the project. BANGALORE: RESIDENTIAL MARKET REPORT 1

12 In 211, Bangalore Residential Market witnessed entry of new products - Villament and Branded Homes. Villament is a new type of development that is gaining prominence in Bangalore. This type of development offers people the best of both worlds, the villa lifestyle at affordable prices. A typical villament has about 4-8 units in each block with the ground floor enjoying garden space, the center floors enjoying balcony space and the upper floors enjoying their own terrace space. Some of the projects launched on this concept are Habitat Crest (Whitefield), LGCL Luminaire (off Old Airport Road) and Sattva s villament project along Sarjapur Road. Westcourt has launched Branded Home - Four Seasons Private Residences located near Mekhri Circle, Bellary Road. This is part of an upcoming mixed-use development named City View. Branded homes come with bespoke design features and have an array of services including 24-hour concierge, valet parking, inroom dining service and many more. In summary, the homes, although owned by individuals, will be maintained by the hospitality brand. These branded private residences promise a lifestyle statement in the home segment offering 5-star luxury standards. Bangalore Residential Micro-Markets Bangalore has been divided in following eleven micro-markets based on geography, type of customers, capital values and type of residential development: 1. Central 2. Off-Central 3. ORR (Marathahalli Silk Board Jn.) and Sarjapur Road 4. Whitefield 5. Old Madras Road 6. Bangalore North (Hebbal, Yelahanka, Thanisandra Road and Hennur Road); ORR (KR Puram to Hebbal) 7. Hosur Road 8. Bannerghatta Road 9. Kanakapura Road 1. Mysore Road 11. Tumkur Road 11

13 RESIDENTIAL MICRO-MARKET ANALYSIS: POTENTIAL V/S ACTIVITY Potential Index has been established on existing and future scenario for economic hubs, physical infrastructure, social infrastructure and availability of land for development; whereas, Activity Index is gauged through ratio of availability to annual absorption rate. Findings from this analysis are: 1. Hosur Road is on over supply status as the current availability level is high and potential of this region is not likely to improve in short term. 2. Bangalore North can also fall under over supply status for some duration unless planned economic activities kick-off in this location in the near future. and Kanakpura Road are in balanced state because potential, activity level and inventory are proportionate to each other in these micro-markets. 4. Mysore Road has opportunity for residential sector but its future depends on growth of occupancy levels in Global Village and Bidadi Industrial Area. 5. Bannerghatta Road has affinity for new developments but availability of land parcel is the critical constraint for future growth. 6. Central and Off-Central will always have potential for residential development in luxury category but land availability is the bottle-neck in these micro-markets as well. 3.

16 15 CENTRAL

17 This micro-market is set to witness development of luxury residential projects. Limited availability of land for development is the only deterrent for this micro-market. The micro-market has colonies/towns existing since British period. Therefore, this region predominantly comprises of old residential developments mainly villas and individual bungalows. Today it is a preferred location by HNIs and NRIs. Due to lack of availability of large land parcels and high capital values, this quadrant witnessed limited fresh residential supply; most of the upcoming residential projects are small scaled luxury apartment developments. Key under construction projects include Prestige Edwardian, Brigade Sonata, Total Environment's Van Gogh's Garden, Skyline Villa Maria, HM Grandeur and Vaishnavi Prime. Key developments planned in this zone include Prestige Kingfisher Tower, Century Renata, Nitesh Park Avenue, Embassy Oasis and others. Size of typical development ranges between 3, sqft to 8, sqft; residential units are sized between 2, 3,5 sqft (Class A); sqft (Class B). This micro-market will continue to perform good owing to limited supply and high demand. The capital values are expected to appreciate at 12% 15% per annum. In future, the redevelopment of old properties is likely to gain traction on account of availability of higher Floor Space Index (FSI) and rising capital rate.

20 19 ORR [Marathahalli Jn - Silk Board Jn] & Sarjapur Rd

21 Currently, ORR is the most active IT hub of India. This is driving residential demand in this micromarket. In addition on-going physical & social infrastructure developments are supporting the demand environment. This micro-market is likely to remain strong for at least next 3 to 5 years. This micro-market can be subdivided into 3 sub-markets: - ORR (Silk Board Jn. Bellandur Jn.), - ORR (Bellandur Jn. to Marathahalli Jn.) - Sarjapur Rd (ORR Bellandur Jn. to Sarjapur Village). Key residential development along ORR (Silk Board Jn. Bellandur Jn.) is BDA promoted HSR Layout. In HSR layout few private developers have apartment projects. Whereas, ORR (Bellandur Jn. to Marathahalli Jn.) and Sarjapur Rd (ORR Bellandur Jn. to Sarjapur Village) are dominated by private developers projects housing mainly IT population working in ORR, Electronics City and Whitefield. There are many international schools/education institutions located Off Sarjapur Road. However, other social infrastructure is just adequate; but completion of under construction retail & entertainment developments will improve this aspect in coming years. Also, completion of ongoing fly-overs along ORR will ease accessibility. Urban infrastructure is good in HSR Layout but many parts of other sub-markets of this region do not have quality roads, footpaths, street lights and other basic urban infrastructure. Currently, outside BDA promoted layouts, municipal water connections are not available and population is dependent on bore wells for water. The water table is depleting at alarming rate in this micro-market on account of high residential activity.

24 23 OLD MADRAS ROAD (KR Puram - Hoskote)

25 This is one of the most promising emerging micro-markets for residential segment. In this region, residential development activity levels have increased post widening of the highway and commencement of Bangalore International Airport (BIAL) in 28. In medium term, planned Peripheral Ring Road will further improve connectivity of this micro-market to other regions of the city.

26 25 NORTH BANGALORE

27 In future, development of large scale integrated theme based townships will characterize real estate development in Bangalore North. This micro-market gained traction post commencement of Bangalore International Airport in 28. The key drivers for residential activity in this region are improving physical infrastructure, emerging economic hubs of Bangalore and availability of land for development. Government is aggressively promoting this region for future economic activities. This micromarket is poised to be next economic epicenter of Bangalore. This micro-market is also attracting retail investors (HNIs and NRIs) for investments in upcoming residential developments on account of expected high growth rate. Most of the residential developments located in New Town Yelahanka, Thanisandra Road and Hennur Main Road are apartment projects in mid and premium categories. located along Bellary Road & Hebbal are in the luxury segment. Also, a few national developers are planning to launch large scale budget segment projects in this micro-market. Social infrastructure is good in Yelahanka but other submarkets lack adequate social infrastructure. However, developers have plans to develop required social infrastructure in coming years. Non-availability of water is the key deterrent for development in this micro-market. Government needs to step-up its effort in this direction in order to develop planned economic hubs. Many developers like Prestige, Sobha, Brigade, Hiranandani and others have launched Villa projects near Devanahalli region. Prominent under construction residential projects in this region include RMZ Latitude, Godrej Crest, Godrej Platinum, RMZ Galleria, Prestige Oasis, Sobha City, RMZ Sawaan, Brigade Orchids,Embassy Boulevard, Ozone Urbana and others. Key upcoming projects include Nitesh Malibu, Divyasree Valley of the Wing and others. Currently, this micro-market is set for an oversupply situation unless key planned economic activities kick-off. This region is likely to be in in-balance state for some time on account of high expectation. The annual capital appreciation rate is likely to drop from current levels on account of excessive activity. However, in the mid to long term, this micro-market is one of the most promising growth corridors of Bangalore. This micro-market is likely to gain momentum in coming years as it has very high potential for growth.

28 27 HOSUR ROAD

29 This micro-market has witnessed growth of large scale residential and integrated township projects. However, in the recent past, absorption levels have remained low compared to availability. Till 1991, this micro-market was driven by industrial developments in Hosur, Bommasandra and Jigani. Post 1991, Electronics City established itself as an IT Hub and housing requirement for working population increased manifold resulting in high residential activity in this region. However, this region did not develop as a suburban area owing to poor urban infrastructure, absence of integrated planning and fractured social infrastructure. This micro-market is one of the most active regions of Bangalore for budget category residential development. Budget category projects are mainly around Chandapura Anekal region whereas a few locations have projects in mid and luxury category. Size of typical development ranges between 25 and 1 units. However, Patel Neo Town is an integrated Township spread across 25 acres. In 29, completion of elevated expressway between Silk Board Junction and Electronics City improved the connectivity in this region. Key ongoing projects include Salarpuria Greenage, Ajmera Infinity, Patel New Town, Pride Crosswinds, SJR Primecorp Trillium, Uniworld Resorts and VBHC Vaibhava. Key planned developments are SJR Primecorp s Fiesta Homes and expansion of existing projects. Currently, this micro-market is in oversupply situation and demand is likely to flatten/drop owing to saturation of economic hubs in this region. Prices are likely to be under downward pressure in short term. In medium term, attractiveness of this micro-market can improve with implementation of planned Metro Rail Phase 2 and growth of economic activities in Electronics City Phase 3 & in Hosur.

30 29 BANNERGHATTA ROAD

31 This micro-market is progressing towards saturation state with limited land availability and flattening growth in southern Bangalore economic hubs. It is still one of the most preferred micro-markets of IT/ITeS professionals and population of Bangalore South owing to availability of good and improving social infrastructure. Since early 199s, this micro-market emerged as a residential hub housing IT/ITeS population working in IT Parks located in Bannerghatta Road and Electronics City. This micro-market is also a preferred location for senior and middle management working in manufacturing plants located in Jigani and Bommasandra. In addition, this region is a natural choice for growing resident population of Jayanagar and JP Nagar. Currently, in Bannerghatta Road residential activity is flattening because of limited availability of clear titled land parcels and restricted land use zoning. Moreover, IT growth is shifting from this quadrant towards East and North of Bangalore thereby softening the residential demand. In this quadrant, residential activity is increasing in Kanakapura Road due to lower land prices and enhanced connectivity through under construction Metro Rail Phase 1 project. This micro-market has matured social infrastructure retail malls, entertainment centers, hospitals and education institutions.two more mixed use developments (retail, entertainment and hotel) are under construction. Apartment projects in premium category dominate this location; however, mid and luxury category residential developments also have share in this market.

32 31 MYSORE ROAD

33 This micro-market has witnessed growth in residential segment only in the recent past and future depends on growth of occupancy levels in Global Village (an IT Park) and Bidadi industrial area. Till 28, this micro-market has attracted limited interest from real estate developers as residential activity in Bangalore remained largely confined to southern and eastern regions of the city. This micro-market is dominated by industrial developments and educational institutions. Since late 198s Kumbalgodu & Bidadi industrial areas attracted key domestic & global manufacturing plants in the region. In 21, commencement of Global Village, an IT Park located Off Mysore Road, also could not provide sufficient traction for Class A residential development in this region owing to slow growth rate of IT development. However, post 29, this micro-market attracted few developers namely Salarpuria, Century, Good Earth, Era Group owing to: - Development of Global Village Special Economic Zone - Increased activity in Bidadi Industrial region - Enhanced social infrastructure - Gopalan Mall - Improved connectivity via NICE Ring Road & ORR. The residential activity is set to increase in this micro-market in near future on account of ongoing Metro Rail Phase 1 & key IT companies expansion in this micro-market. This micro-market has witnessed residential activity largely in mid & budget categories. Ongoing projects include Salarpuria Melody, Good Earth s Malhar Footprints, Century Indus, The Arena and others. Key planned residential developments in this zone include ETA Star Jardine Residences and projects by Kumar Properties and Kumar Urban Development Limited. Currently, the availability of residential units is not high in this micro-market. Therefore, this location is likely to witness new launches & expansion of existing projects.

34 33 KANAKAPURA ROAD & BANASHANKARI EXTN.

35 In this micro-market, residential activities have increased in recent past with completion of Nandi Infrastructure Corridor Enterprises (NICE) Ring Road, under-construction Metro Rail Phase 1 and saturation of Bannerghatta micro-market. This micro-market grew as an extension of Bangalore South locations Jayanagar, JP Nagar and Banashankari. Like Bannerghatta Road, residents of this zone are IT professionals working in Bannerghatta Road and Electronics City; also this location houses people working in industries located along Kanakapura Road & Harohalli industrial area. Currently, this micro-market is dependent on JP Nagar and Jayanagar for entertainment and other social infrastructure.

36 35 TUMKUR ROAD

37 Rise of this micro-market is due to availability of land parcels, large and growing industrial hub, densely populated region, improvised connectivity through NICE Ring Road & Elevated Expressway and presence of Bangalore International Exhibition Center. This micromarket has immense potential for residential development especially in budget and mid categories. The micro-market of Tumkur Road is primarily an industrial destination with traditional and established industrial clusters of Bangalore namely Peenya and Yeshwantpur industrial areas. Tumkur road being an industrial corridor houses various engineering and manufacturing industries along its stretch. In addition, Hindustan Machine Tools (HMT) township, spread across 475 acres is also located in this micro-market. In early 2 s saturation in city center locations, steady growth in real estate, and availability of land for redevelopment led to spill over of activity in locations such as Yeshwantpur and HMT layout. In 28, completion of Bangalore International Airport in Devanahalli further strengthened this region as a preferred destination for development of real estate. Under construction Metro Rail project and availability of large industrial land for development are adding further impetus to development in this region. Brigade Gateway an integrated township is a success story of this micro-market. Many Grade A developments are located along Tumkur Road from Yeshwantpur till ORR. Key ongoing projects include Vaishnavi Nakshatra, Golden Grand, Sobha Aspire, Salarpuria Luxuria, Golden Grand and others Key planned projects from Phoenix Mills Group and Tata Realty Group. This micro-market is currently in stable state. In this region, prices are likely to appreciate between 1% 12% per annum in short term.

38 OUTLOOK Bangalore s residential segment is likely to grow annually at 15% for next 3 years. The most active micro-markets are ORR, Whitefield and Bangalore North. In 212, Bangalore is pegged to absorb 23, residential units. The capital value will appreciate on account of rising construction cost and land price between 8% and 18% across different micro-markets. South East micro-markets - Whitefield and ORR will remain highly active in short to medium term owing to proximity to established IT economic hubs. However, next growth direction would be North East Old Madras Road & Bangalore North (Hennur Road, Thanisandra Road and Bellary Road). Even though, Bangalore North may face over supply situation in short term owing to over enthusiasm of developers, long term potential of this micro-market continues to remain very high. Economic outlook for the city continues to remain strong in coming years with many large IT/ITeS, engineering and automobile MNCs having aggressive growth plans for the city. This would ensure healthy growth rate in residential segment. Basic requirement like availability of water is posing a serious threat to development scenario in Bangalore. Availability of higher FSI along key growth corridors and Metro Rail project will result in development of mixed use projects. Under construction and planned Infrastructure projects - Metro Rail, Peripheral Ring Road will flatten capital values across different micro-markets and unlock many peripheral locations for further development. 37
