Sobha Infinia Phase 2

Sobha Infinia Phase 2 has its address at Jakkasandra Extension, on the Sarjapur-Marathahalli Road, Koramangala, pincode 560034. That places you at the eastern edge of one of the best-known neighbourhoods in the city, where it meets the roads heading out towards Sarjapur and Marathahalli.

For many buyers, the draw is the working day. You are near the office belt along the Outer Ring Road, and a large number of start-ups keep offices within Koramangala itself. HSR Layout and Bellandur are both a drive away by road, which helps if one partner works in either.

Evenings and weekends are easy to fill without a long trip. Koramangala is known for its restaurants and shops, and families will find schools and hospitals spread through the area. The names and distances of specific schools, hospitals or metro stations have not been published, so check the ones you care about on a map.

Traffic on the Sarjapur-Marathahalli Road can be heavy at peak hours. Before you commit, drive to your office at the time you would usually leave and time the return in the evening. Try the school run from the site gate as well.

Sobha Infinia Phase 2 offers nine plans, all quoted as built-up area. Three-bedroom homes start at about 1,922 sq ft for Rs. 4.17 Crore and about 1,952 sq ft for Rs. 4.23 Crore. Mid-sized options run through about 2,056, 2,098 and 2,198 sq ft, priced from Rs. 4.44 Crore to Rs. 4.75 Crore.

The larger three-bedroom homes are about 2,462, 2,605 and 2,706 sq ft, from Rs. 5.36 Crore up to Rs. 5.86 Crore. The single four-bedroom plan is about 3,260 sq ft and starts at Rs. 7.11 Crore. Across the range, the rate comes to about Rs. 21,700 to Rs. 21,800 per sq ft.

Since the building is under construction, GST applies, and stamp duty and registration are payable at the time of registration. Ask for the carpet area of each plan, since you only live in that part. When you ask for a cost sheet, make sure it lists:

• The base price for your exact unit, floor and facing
• Car parking charges and the number of slots
• GST on each payment stage
• Clubhouse, maintenance deposit and utility connection charges
• The payment schedule, tied to construction milestones

Sobha Infinia Phase 2 has no RERA registration number published for this phase. Any Bengaluru project still being built should carry Karnataka RERA registration. Ask Sobha Limited for the certificate and look it up on the state portal before you pay anything. The portal entry will also show the completion date the developer has declared.

At this stage, ask for these documents:

• The RERA registration certificate for this phase
• The sanctioned building plan and the commencement certificate
• Title documents for the 5-acre land and a recent encumbrance certificate
• A draft agreement for sale showing the handover date and delay terms
• The payment schedule linked to construction stages

If you take a home loan, check that your bank has approved the project, since that shows it has already reviewed the title. At handover, collect the occupancy certificate for your tower and register the sale deed. After that, apply for the khata in your name and keep every receipt for future sale or loan needs.

Sobha Infinia Phase 2 places six towers of 11 floors on 5 acres, with 180 homes in all, as planned by the developer. That is a fairly low count for a Koramangala address, which should mean fewer people sharing each lift, the pool and the clubhouse. The open-space share has not been published, so ask for the master plan drawing and see how the towers are spaced.

A morning could begin on the jogging track or in the gymnasium, followed by a swim before work. There is an activity and yoga area for a quieter start, and landscaped gardens around the towers for a walk after dinner.

Children get a dedicated play area outdoors, and an indoor games room keeps them busy on rainy days. The clubhouse is planned as the social centre, where neighbours meet and small gatherings can be held. Retail spaces inside the complex should cover everyday needs such as milk or groceries without taking the car out.

All of this is still being built. Ask the developer which facilities will be ready at handover and which will follow later, and get that in writing with your agreement.
