The full read
Puravankara has taken outright ownership of a 9.73-acre plot in North Bengaluru's Sanna Ammanikere, with an estimated gross development value of ₹800 crore (equivalent to 15.7% of its current market cap and 21.4% of its FY26 revenue). The site, in the Devanahalli corridor, will yield roughly 0.89 million square feet of residential space. Infrastructure tailwinds (the Airport Metro, Satellite Town Ring Road, and the Aerospace Park) underpin demand in this pocket. The outright purchase structure, rather than a joint development, signals management's conviction in the corridor's absorption potential. This is the latest in a series of land buys in Bengaluru micro-markets, following earlier acquisitions on Mandur and Hennur Road. With a trailing debt-to-equity of 2.48, the capital allocation discipline will be tested at launch. For now, the deal adds meaningful visibility to a pipeline that has already delivered 177% revenue growth on a trailing basis.
