Real Estate Pune:Sattva Group, a leading real estate developer, has announced plans to invest Rs 12,000-14,000 crore in diversification over the next three years. The company aims to explore new markets and segments, including commercial and residential projects, to fuel its growth. According to Bijay Agarwal, Managing Director of Sattva Group, the funding for the initiative will be structured with a combination of equity, debt, and sales. Approximately 20% of the funding will be in equity, while the remainder will be sourced from debt and sales proceeds. The company's approach to debt is highly prudent and disciplined, with a primary focus on commercial and residential projects.

In 2017, Blackstone and Salarpuria Sattva Group established an alliance, resulting in the acquisition and management of prime assets such as Knowledge City, Knowledge Capital, Image Towers, and Knowledge Park in partnership with the Bangalore-based developer. The collaboration expanded to include the acquisition of Bengaluru's Global Tech Village in September 2020.

Over the past seven months, the company has leased about 4.5 million sq ft of space, indicating a notable resurgence in corporate interest. Anticipating a 25% growth in rental income by FY25, Blackstone also aims to double its residential sales to Rs 6,500 crore.

It is also exploring scaling up its co-living business from 15,000 to 50,000 beds and intends to introduce a proptech platform. Further, it plans to expand its flexible office arm to 4.8 million sq ft.

The Bengaluru-based company is planning to venture into new markets such as Mumbai and Chennai with both residential and commercial properties. It has secured land in Chennai for a 4.5 million sq ft office project in a Knowledge property. Discussions regarding a project in Mumbai are ongoing and expected to close shortly.
