Properties in Pocharam

If you work in tech but the western corridor's prices put you off, apartments in Pocharam offer another route. The locality is on Hyderabad's eastern side, close to Uppal and Ghatkesar. It hosts an IT special economic zone and a number of technology campuses. That gives the east its own office cluster, and homes here cost well below what similar flats fetch in the west.

Our listing is ASBL Springs, from ASBL Ashoka Builders. The project is complete, with possession from July 2024, and has 478 homes on about 4.11 acres. It offers 2 BHK and 3 BHK apartments, with prices from about Rs. 73.9 Lakhs. That puts it within reach of salaried couples and small families moving up from rented flats. Being ready, it also spares you the wait and the risk that come with a launch.

The main reason to live here is how short the trip to the nearby campuses can be. If your job is in the SEZ or one of the tech parks around it, check the exact distance from the project gate to your office. If you would travel to other parts of Hyderabad, drive the route at rush hour first, because the east and west of the city are far apart.

Weigh a few points before you book. A developing locality may still be building up its shops, schools and hospitals, so walk the surrounding streets and see what is already open. Confirm the project's TS-RERA registration and ask for the occupancy certificate. Check how the society receives water and whether it depends on tankers in summer. Ask what the monthly maintenance covers and how parking is allotted. Look at the finish inside a handed-over flat, not just the model unit. Compare the builder's price with recent registered sales in the same project, so you know the market rate.

If Pocharam fits your commute but you want more choice, Uppal and Ghatkesar are the neighbouring areas to compare on price and travel time.
