Kolte-Patil Signs ₹850 Crore Bhugaon JD Residential Project; Launch Targeted for Mid-2026

Project Overview

Kolte-Patil Developers Limited (BSE: 532924, NSE: KOLTEPATIL), a leading Pune-based real estate player with a diversified presence in Mumbai and Bengaluru, announced the signing of a joint development deal for a ~1.1 million sq. ft. residential project in January 2026. The company acquired a ~7.5-acre land parcel in Bhugaon, Pune, with an estimated ₹1,400 crore valuation as part of an earlier outright acquisition in October 2025.

The Kolte-Patil Bhugaon project is designed to offer modern living in the peaceful surroundings of Bhugaon, spread across 7.5 acres of land and will feature 2 and 3 BHK apartments. The total development area covers around 1.9 million sq. ft., ensuring ample open spaces and world-class amenities for residents.

Timeline & RERA Status

The project is expected to be launched by mid-2026, with possession scheduled for May 2030. The project is anticipated to launch by mid-2026 (Q2–Q3 2026), with RERA registration following 3–4 months after launch. RERA number will be announced at the time of formal launch.

Pricing details are currently available on request and will be formally disclosed upon RERA filing. Given the ₹1,400 crore GDV and 1.9 million sq ft saleable area, average realization is estimated at ₹7,350–₹7,600 per sq ft—slightly below current Bhugaon averages, positioning the project as a value play relative to competing launches.

Developer Track Record
