Brigade Gunjur: A New 39-Acre Township Rises on Whitefield-Sarjapur Road

Brigade Enterprises Limited has taken a decisive step toward one of East Bengaluru's largest residential launches in years. Brigade Group has signed a joint development agreement for an 8.63-acre parcel in Gunjur in east Bengaluru, marking a key step towards a larger 39-acre integrated residential township in the Whitefield–Sarjapur corridor, with the JDA execution recorded on April 15, 2026. The filing confirms what brokers on the ground have been anticipating for months: Brigade is assembling one of the biggest single-developer land banks the Whitefield-Sarjapur belt has seen in recent memory.

The scale of the ambition is significant. The 39-acre development, planned primarily as a large-scale residential township, will have an estimated gross development value (GDV) of about Rs 7,200 crore. The overall land assembly for the township is being undertaken through a combination of outright purchase and joint development agreements. That structuring detail matters for buyers: it signals Brigade isn't relying on a single landowner tie-up but has methodically stitched together parcels to reach the full 39-acre footprint before going to market.

Speaking on the announcement, Pavitra Shankar, Managing Director of Brigade Enterprises Limited, described the Whitefield-Sarjapur stretch as "one of Bengaluru's most compelling micro markets and residential growth corridors, driven by infrastructure" expansion and connectivity gains. She indicated that the township will reflect the group's emphasis on quality, scale and long-term liveability and that the scheme would incorporate multi-generational residential offerings including senior living supported by planned amenities and convenience infrastructure.

On the ground, the project sits at Gunjur Village on SH-35 (Varthur Road), in the corridor between Whitefield and Sarjapur Road. Early planning documents point to six towers of Ground + 21 floors carrying approximately 2,500+ apartments in 2, 3 and 4 BHK configurations — a scale that would make it one of the larger single-phase launches in the corridor. Connectivity-wise, ITPL is approximately 8 km, the EPIP Zone and Brigade Tech Gardens approximately 9 km, and Whitefield Main Road approximately 9 km, while the Wipro SEZ arc on Sarjapur Road is 7 km and the Outer Ring Road at Bellandur 11 km away, placing the site within reach of most of East Bengaluru's major tech campuses.

A notable advantage for prospective buyers: Brigade Cornerstone Utopia is a delivered and occupied Brigade township immediately adjacent to the Gunjur parcel, giving homebuyers a tangible, walk-through reference for the kind of community Brigade builds in this exact micro-market — something rare for a pre-launch project. The planned amenity base draws from a similar playbook, with a township clubhouse anchoring a swimming pool with a separate children's pool, a fully equipped gymnasium with cardio and strength zones, yoga and aerobics studios, indoor games, a multipurpose banquet hall, and a co-working lounge, alongside roughly 40% of the 39-acre site held as landscape and open space.

The timing lines up with a broader price story in the micro-market. Local data suggests Gunjur has been on a sharp upswing, with the area recording strong year-on-year appreciation that outpaces most of East Bengaluru while still remaining more affordable than mature pockets like Whitefield and Sarjapur Road proper, where established projects command higher per-sq-ft rates. This gap is precisely the opportunity Brigade appears to be targeting: a large, branded township at scale, priced ahead of the neighbourhood average but still below the established corridors it borders.

For now, the project remains in its early stage. K-RERA registration is awaited and commercial details including unit pricing, floor plans, and the exact tower release sequence have not been finalized. Homebuyers and investors tracking Whitefield-Sarjapur Road would do well to register interest early, given Brigade's track record in the corridor and the scale of what's being planned at Gunjur, but should wait for official RERA disclosure before making any commitments.
