Salarpuria Sattva entered Hyderabad's residential market with deliberate geography. The group, which set up operations in 1993 and has since delivered 142 projects across eight Indian cities covering 80 million sq ft of residential and Grade-A commercial space, chose Kavadiguda for its first large-format residential site in the city — a 8.5-acre parcel on Tank Bund Road, within walking distance of the JW Marriott and Hussain Sagar Lake. That site became Salarpuria Necklace Pride, and it remains the group's defining residential statement in central Hyderabad.
The choice of location was consistent with how Salarpuria Sattva has always positioned its residential portfolio: sites that sit at the intersection of an established urban address and genuine transit infrastructure. In Hyderabad, the group's commercial anchor is Sattva Knowledge City in Raidurg — a 30-acre campus of up to 6 million sq ft of office space hosting Fortune 500 occupiers including JP Morgan Chase, Microsoft, Oracle, and Goldman Sachs. The group's Hyderabad commercial footprint exceeds 25 million sq ft in total. When it brought Necklace Pride to Kavadiguda, it was applying commercial-grade location thinking to a residential product: pick a node that already works, then build at scale.
Necklace Pride is structured as an 8.5-acre mixed-use community on Tank Bund Road in Kavadiguda, close to Hussain Sagar Lake. The residential component spans five towers of 14 floors each, offering 2, 2.5, 3, and 4 BHK apartments across approximately 430 to 434 units. Floor plans range from 1,280 sq ft to 3,645 sq ft, giving the project a breadth that covers both compact city-apartment buyers and households looking for larger configurations in a central address.
The project includes a 20,000 sq ft clubhouse with a rooftop swimming pool as its centrepiece amenity. Alongside the residential towers, Necklace Pride incorporates a commercial component with independent entry, designed so residents can work within the same address without the commercial activity intruding on the residential zones. This mixed-use format — with separated access and exclusivity — reflects design thinking the group has applied across its IT park portfolio, where the discipline of segregating functions within a shared campus is standard practice.
Kavadiguda occupies the north-central band of Hyderabad, adjacent to Gandhi Nagar, New Bakaram, and Lower Tank Bund. Its connectivity profile is one of the strongest of any mid-city locality: RTC Cross Roads metro station, Musheerabad metro station, and Chikkadpally metro station all serve the area, complemented by Secunderabad Junction railway station and James Street railway station within practical reach. Residents rated Kavadiguda's connectivity 4.3 out of 5 in resident surveys on 99acres.
The locality sits approximately 18 kilometres from HITEC City and the western IT corridor, placing it within reasonable commuting distance for professionals employed in Gachibowli and Raidurg — which is precisely where Salarpuria Sattva's Knowledge City campus operates. For a buyer who works in that corridor but wants to live in an address with genuine urban character rather than a western suburb, Kavadiguda offers an unusual trade-off: inner-city positioning, lakefront adjacency, and metro-anchored transit.
Road connectivity to the project runs off Nizamabad Road (NH-44) and Adikmet Main Road, both arterial routes that feed into the rest of the city without requiring the Outer Ring Road. The area's infrastructure — CC roads, flyovers, underground drainage, and 24/7 power supply — is established rather than aspirational, distinguishing Kavadiguda from peripheral localities where civic infrastructure is still in progress.
The Kavadiguda apartment market averaged around ₹7,500 per sq ft in mid-2024, with year-on-year appreciation of approximately 5.6%. For context, premium gated community apartments in the locality have been transacting in the ₹2.19 crore to ₹3.49 crore range at around ₹11,000 per sq ft for newer, high-specification product. Necklace Pride, as the area's most substantial gated community offering, occupies the upper band of this range. Hyderabad's broader residential market recorded a 17% rise in average transaction prices from 2023 to 2024, and 51,995 homes were sold city-wide in 2024 — indicating the depth of demand that supports pricing across established localities like Kavadiguda.
Beyond Necklace Pride in Kavadiguda, Salarpuria Sattva has assembled a small but deliberate residential portfolio across Hyderabad. Sattva Magnus in Shaikpet, near Jubilee Hills, is a 5.4-acre project built across four towers of 24 floors. Sattva Lake Ridge in Kokapet's Neopolis layout is a larger-scale project on 6.3 acres with six towers of 37 floors and 599 units of 3, 4, and 5 BHK configurations, with possession targeted for 2028. These three projects — Necklace Pride, Magnus, and Lake Ridge — represent the group's residential presence in the city, each in a distinct sub-market and at a distinct price point.
The group's commercial Hyderabad operations are considerably larger in scale. Sattva Knowledge City in Raidurg alone spans 30 acres with up to 6 million sq ft of office capacity, and the group's Knowledge Series campuses across the city host Fortune 500 tenants. That commercial depth matters for a residential buyer because it speaks to the group's long-term institutional commitment to Hyderabad rather than a one-project market test.
Salarpuria Sattva maintains a CRISIL A+ rating as of early 2025, and has set FY2025 housing sales targets of ₹3,000–3,200 crore. The group's commercial leasing portfolio carried approximately 93% occupancy in FY2024, generating an estimated ₹1,600–1,700 crore in annualised rental income — an institutional balance sheet that reduces execution risk for residential buyers. In March 2025, the group filed to raise ₹6,200 crore through Knowledge Realty Trust (KRT), a REIT covering 48 million sq ft across 30 office assets, which received CCI approval in May 2025.
On sustainability, Salarpuria Sattva is a founding member of the Indian Green Building Council. Its office parks carry Platinum and Gold certifications from IGBC, LEED, WELL, and USGBC. Residential projects across the portfolio use solar PV, rainwater harvesting, and precast construction that generates 40% less waste than conventional methods.
