Yes, KMC, dr_know
It was well known that Emaar-MGF had planned big for Kochi when news came out that they bought
100s of acres. So far this is the only investment EMAAR is rolling out in Kerala.
I am curious about Sahara Grace too. They have close to 50-60 acres of land left even after their
present projects are accounted for.




By the way, I forgot to inform, the above news was quoted from by Minister S.Sarma's press conference.
See the highlighted news quoted below.
There are habitual liars and phoney experts who may contest the verity of the news.

[ReNik]

Now we have one glamorous addition - EMaaR-MGF - to the list
That means more work to dig up details.

Here is a list of projects on which this forum needs more information.



** Unitech Mall @ Maradu

** Prestige Forum

** DLF projects, MarineDrive, Vyttila, Kakkanad

** Abad Mall, Maradu

** Grand Mall, Edappally

** Dewa projects - Marine Drive

** Unitech IT Park, Kunnathunadu

** Puravankara Grand Palms, Edappally

** Sahara Grace - Kakkanad

** Sahara City Homes - Tripunittara

** Elbit project (8.8 million sq ft on 41 acres)

** L&T project @ Udayamperoor

** Ozone @ Nedumbassery

** HDIL - location unknown

**EMAAR-MGF Tech city @ Nedumbassery


PS : Please add if something is missed out.
I have omitted Sobha Hi-tech City, LuLu, Parsvnath, CIAL Tech park projects
since these are already on and details including location known.

[sowmya]

SKYLINE IVY League, coming up at Edachira Junction, about 1.3kms from InfoPark, just adjacent to the proposed SMART City.

Great news Renik! This plus the CIAL IT park (if it gets SEZ approval) and the Parsvanth IT park could transform the Nedumbassery area into a huge IT destination - the area also has the advantage of close proximity to the airport.

I agree with KMC - since that area is relatively new and not built out, it will easy for the Govt to develop the roads and other infrastructure there now rather than later when acquisitions could be costly.

136 acres of property acquired

KOCHI: District Collector A.P.M. Mohammed Hanish said here on Wednesday that handing over of the land acquired for the proposed Smart City project to the Information Technology (IT) Department had started.

The land acquired by the Revenue Department would be first handed over to the IT Department, which would, in turn, hand it over to TECOM, promoters of the project.

In the first phase, 100 acres (1 acre = 0.4 hectares) of Kerala State Electricity Board land had been handed over, the Collector said.

So far, 136 acres had been acquired. Disputes regarding 10 acres in Edachira had been settled. Another 13 acres would be available when the compensation package was drawn up.

KOCHI: Kerala Industrial Infrastructure Development Corporation (Kinfra) and Delhi-based Aerens Goldsouk International Ltd. is all set to sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for developing a gem and jewellery park as part of the hi-tech park being developed by Kinfra in association with various private companies.

The proposal is before the Board of Directors of Kinfra, said an official of the Corporation. Its approval will pave the way for signing the MoU for the project, which has received a major boost with Indian gem and jewellery exports for the first quarter of the current financial year growing 13 per cent despite a strengthening rupee.

The growth in gem and jewellery exports complements late last year’s projections that global sales will grow to touch $230 billion in 2015 and that India and China will be big-time players in the growth.

The gem and jewellery park is part of Kinfra’s plans to open a hi-tech park spread over 240 acres in Kalamassery of which the proposed gem and jewellery park will occupy 33 acres.

Prop Expo is up... so we can expect some launches..

Is anybody visiting MarineDrive over weekend ?

Property Expo from tomorrow

Staff Reporter

KOCHI: The Kerala Property Expo 2007 organised by the Kerala Builders’ Forum will be held from Friday to Sunday on the Marine Drive grounds.

Forty-one builders, including 11 from outside the State, will participate in the expo, showcasing some of the major upcoming projects in the State and targeting domestic as well as non-resident Indian customers.

At a press meeting here on Tuesday, Mathen Chakola, president of the forum, said the builders aimed at going hand in hand with the new developments in the State, where real estate and property business had shown a growth of about 35 per cent.

George E. George, secretary of the forum, said the builders had come up with a scheme, Clean Kochi, to tackle the waste-disposal problem in the city.
