Pride KR Puram

Pride KR Puram is at Bhattarahalli village, at the 14 km point of Old Madras Road, in Bidarahalli Hobli. This is the stretch beyond KR Puram, on the eastern fringe of the city, where the highway carries traffic out of East Bengaluru. Most of your trips will begin by joining that road.

For work, KR Puram and Whitefield are the obvious destinations, and both are reached by road from here. The developer has not published distances or drive times to either, or to any station or school, so we do not quote them. Drive the route yourself on a weekday morning and again in the evening. Highway stretches like this one can be quick at noon and slow at 9 am.

Schools, hospitals and shops are found in the surrounding localities rather than on the doorstep. Before you book, list the three or four places your family visits every week and check how long each trip takes. Walk the approach road from the highway to the gate too. Its width, lighting and any service road decide how easy the daily turn in and out will be.

One more point for the paperwork. The postal address also mentions Attibele, which is in a different direction, so ask the developer to confirm the village and taluk on the sale documents.

Pride KR Puram has six layouts, all quoted by built-up area. The entry three-bedroom home has two bathrooms and measures about 1,541 sq ft, from Rs. 2.01 Crore. Three larger three-bedroom plans add a third bathroom: about 1,693 sq ft from Rs. 2.18 Crore, about 1,772 sq ft from Rs. 2.28 Crore and about 1,927 sq ft from Rs. 2.54 Crore. The four-bedroom homes measure about 2,856 sq ft from Rs. 3.76 Crore and about 2,982 sq ft from Rs. 3.92 Crore.

On these figures the rate comes to roughly Rs. 12,900 to Rs. 13,100 per sq ft of built-up area. Carpet areas are not published, so ask for them.

What you pay on top depends on the stage of your unit. A home with an occupancy certificate carries no GST; one still under construction does. Stamp duty and registration apply in every case. Ask for a cost sheet that lists:

• Base rate and the area it is charged on
• Floor-rise and facing charges for your unit
• Car parking and how many bays are included
• Clubhouse fee and maintenance deposit
• GST, if it applies, as a separate line
• Stamp duty and registration on the full value

Pride KR Puram still has no RERA number on record. Ask Pride Group for it and check the entry on the Karnataka RERA portal, rera.karnataka.gov.in. That entry shows the promoter's declared completion date, the simplest way to reconcile a ready-to-move label with a September 2027 possession date.

The address quotes survey number 21/1 and BBMP khata number 275/222, which gives you a starting point for the title check. If your block already has its occupancy certificate, ask for:

• The occupancy certificate for your block
• The sanctioned building plan showing your unit
• Title deeds and an encumbrance certificate for survey 21/1
• The khata extract and latest property tax receipt
• A draft sale deed to review with your lawyer

If the block is still being built, the purchase is an under-construction one. Then ask for the RERA certificate, the approved plan and an agreement for sale that states the handover date and a stage-linked payment plan. At handover, register the sale deed and have the khata moved into your name.

Pride KR Puram is planned as three blocks of up to 18 floors on a 2.5-acre plot, with 212 households sharing one set of facilities. The share of land kept open has not been published. Ask for the sanctioned site plan to see where the blocks stand and how much ground is left for gardens and courts. Any images you are shown are renders as planned by the developer.

An early start could mean a run or a skate on the jogging track, then yoga or meditation in the space set aside for it. The gymnasium and swimming pool are inside the clubhouse, so a workout does not depend on the weather. After school, children have a play area and the sports courts, and older ones can take over the indoor games zone.

Evenings can move to the landscaped gardens or the amphitheatre, where the community can gather for a show or a meeting. Birthdays and festivals go to the party area. The plan also includes retail spaces, which could cover small daily needs without a trip onto the highway. Ask which shops are planned and when they will open.

With 18 floors per block, lifts matter more than any amenity. Ask how many serve each wing and how the clubhouse will be run.
