Pros and cons
42 Estates Codename Light of South
Pros
- Only four homes per floor, every one of them a corner unit
- Two balconies and two covered car parks with every home
- About 70 percent of the site kept open, with a podium park
- Doddakallasandra Green Line metro station is about 3 km away
Cons
- Only 112 homes, so the amenity list is modest next to larger gated projects
- Opposite the RTO, the approach road sees heavy daytime traffic
- The developer has only two completed projects to judge on
- At about ₹11,360 per Sq.Ft., pricing sits at the top end for JP Nagar 9th Phase
Prestige Plots Chikkajala
Pros
- The corridor is already built. NH-44 is a national highway, Kempegowda International Airport is operational, and the Namma Metro Blue Line to the airport runs along Bellary Road. A plotted buyer here is not betting on infrastructure arriving.
- Chikkajala sits closer to the city than the Devanahalli belt where most north Bengaluru plotted supply has launched, which historically supports a higher rate per square foot on resale.
- Prestige has a real plotted track record in this corridor rather than a first attempt at the format, including Marigold on the same highway.
- Plotted land carries no loading factor. You buy the square feet you own, which on this site is worth saying out loud after a run of apartment projects charging 55 to 97 per cent loading.
Cons
- The project has not been announced. There is no RERA registration, and in Karnataka a plotted development cannot legally be marketed or sold without one.
- No land area, no plot count, no master plan and no price list has been published by Prestige. The sizes and prices on this page are ours, derived and labelled, not theirs.
- Several channel-partner microsites already carry a Prestige Chikkajala page with specific acreages and prices. None of it is sourced to the developer, and we have deliberately not repeated any of it.
- Plotted developments in north Bengaluru have a long history of approval delays. Conversion, layout sanction and release-of-plots order are all separate steps, and none of them exists here yet.
