TVS Emerald, the real estate division of the TVS Group, has acquired a 7.18-acre prime land parcel near Rayasandra Lake in southeast Bengaluru to develop a premium residential project. The company anticipates the project will generate revenue exceeding Rs 7 billion.

This acquisition marks TVS Emerald’s seventh major land purchase in Bengaluru, underscoring its increasing focus on the city as a key real estate market. The location near Rayasandra has been noted for its strategic advantage due to its proximity to Bengaluru’s IT corridor and ongoing infrastructure improvements, which are expected to drive demand for premium housing in the area.

Details regarding the project’s launch date and configuration have yet to be announced.

Earlier in the year, TVS Emerald acquired a 10-acre land parcel in Sathnur, Bengaluru, with a development potential of 1.4 million sq ft and projected revenue of Rs 16 billion. The company has also acquired two land parcels in Chennai—a 12-acre site on Radial Road and a 4.8-acre parcel in Padur—as well as a four-acre parcel in Thanisandra, Bengaluru.

Overall, TVS Emerald’s ongoing and upcoming projects collectively cover over 8 million sq ft, reflecting the brand’s significant development potential.
