MJR North Park

MJR North Park stands at Gummanahalli, in the Bagalur area at the far north of Bengaluru, pincode 562149. The developer has not named a street or published distances to offices, schools, hospitals or the airport. The site is identified by a plus code, so ask the sales team to take you to the exact plot entrance.

Since the towers will not be ready until the end of 2028 at the earliest, think about the location on two timelines. Today, visit on a weekday and look at the approach road, the traffic near the gate and how built up the area around it is.

For the future, time the drive to your office at the hour you would leave for work, and do the return run in the evening. Ask which schools run buses to Gummanahalli and where the nearest clinic, pharmacy and grocery store are.

A northern suburb like Bagalur is still filling in, so what is open ground now may be another tower by 2028. Ask the developer what is planned on the plots next to the site and how that affects light and views from your tower.

MJR North Park quotes the sizes below as built-up areas; carpet areas have not been published. Each price is a range, set by floor and facing:

• 2 BHK Special, about 1,059 sq ft: Rs. 84.9 Lakhs to Rs. 91.2 Lakhs
• 2.5 BHK, about 1,340 sq ft: Rs. 1.07 Crore to Rs. 1.17 Crore
• 3 BHK Special, about 1,519 sq ft: Rs. 1.32 Crore to Rs. 1.43 Crore
• 3 BHK Premium, about 1,538 sq ft: Rs. 1.26 Crore to Rs. 1.31 Crore
• 4 BHK Signature, about 2,075 sq ft: Rs. 1.79 Crore to Rs. 1.84 Crore

The entry rate is about Rs. 8,000 per sq ft on the smallest 2 BHK. All the studios (about 471 sq ft) have gone. Note that the 3 BHK Premium is larger yet cheaper than the Special, which needs a clear answer from the sales team.

Since the homes are under construction, GST is charged on top of the price, along with stamp duty and registration. Your cost sheet should list:

• Base rate and the area it is charged on
• Floor-rise and facing premiums
• Car parking charges
• Clubhouse fee and maintenance deposit
• GST as a separate line
• Stamp duty and registration
• The construction-linked payment schedule

MJR North Park does not yet show a published RERA registration number. Ask MJR Builders for it and look it up on the Karnataka RERA website before paying any booking amount. The entry shows the promoter's declared completion date, the approved plans and quarterly progress updates, which help you track the December 2028 timeline.

At this stage, while the towers are going up, ask for:

• The RERA registration certificate for the project
• The sanctioned building plan showing your tower and unit
• Title documents and an encumbrance certificate for the 2.25 acres
• Khata for the land
• A draft agreement for sale with the handover date and payment stages
• The list of banks that have approved the project for home loans

Have a lawyer read the draft agreement, paying attention to the delay clause and the specification schedule, which should match what the brochure promises.

At handover, collect the occupancy certificate for your tower before you take the keys. Then register the sale deed and apply for the khata in your name. Keep receipts for every stage payment, since you will need them for the final account.

MJR North Park is planned as two 22-floor towers on 2.25 acres, with 354 homes sharing one set of facilities. That is a compact, busy site, so the clubhouse and podium spaces do most of the work that lawns would do on a larger plot. The developer has not published the open-space share; ask for the approved site plan. Any images you see are renders as planned by the developer.

Once the towers are complete, a weekday could start on the jogging track or the yoga and activity deck, then move to the gym or the pool. If you work from home, the work pods give you a quiet desk outside the flat. Children have a play area, and older ones can use the sports courts after school.

Rainy days and evenings belong to the indoor games zone and the landscaped gardens, while the party area covers birthdays and festivals. The retail spaces planned inside the project should cut down short trips for milk and groceries.

With so many families on a small plot, ask how the pool, gym and courts will be shared at peak times. Also ask when each facility will open relative to the handovers.
