02 Mar 2026 CW Team

Brigade Group has entered a strategic partnership with Primus Senior Living to develop senior living homes at an estimated cost of Rs 7.5 billion (bn).

The tie up pairs a prominent real estate developer with a specialist operator to address rising demand for purpose built accommodation for older adults. The partners intend to combine expertise in project delivery and senior care services to create integrated residential communities. The planned developments will offer a mix of independent living, assisted living and memory care, supported by on site healthcare, wellness and recreational facilities.

Designs will prioritise accessibility, safety and social engagement while incorporating services aimed at promoting well being and autonomy for residents. Operational frameworks will focus on clinical support, hospitality and lifecycle services tailored to older persons. Technology enabled monitoring and telemedicine will be integrated to support continuity of care and enable remote specialist consultations where required.

The projects will be progressed through a joint development model with shared responsibility for construction and management, allowing each partner to leverage its strengths. The partnership aims to adopt phased implementation to calibrate supply with local demand and refine service delivery. Governance structures and standard operating procedures will be put in place to ensure resident safety, regulatory adherence and consistent service quality across phases.

Industry observers say the collaboration reflects growing institutional interest in organised senior housing as demographic trends shift towards an older population. The move is likely to support the maturation of the sector by demonstrating investment viability and standards for care and design. The partnership is expected to set benchmarks for the sector and attract further private capital into specialised eldercare infrastructure.
