Embassy Group has been building in Bangalore since 1993 under Chairman and Managing Director Jitu Virwani, and its residential footprint sits alongside a much larger commercial one. Embassy Group, a leading development firm in real estate commenced its operations in 1993 led by Jitu Virwani, Chairman and Managing Director of the group, and has developed 62+ million square feet of Commercial, Residential, Retail, Hospitality, Services, Educational and Industrial Warehouse spaces and holds an extensive land bank of 1,000+ acres across the country. That scale is anchored in North Bangalore itself: the group's flagship Embassy Manyata Business Park, spread over roughly 120 acres near Hebbal, houses over 100,000 employees and dozens of multinational corporates, and Embassy REIT continues to fund infrastructure such as a dedicated flyover at the park. Embassy Manyata, one of India's largest business parks with an operational area of around 12 million square feet, spread over 121 acres, caters to over 100,000 employees from 42 top-notch corporates. Embassy Springs, the group's residential township in Devanahalli, was conceived as the natural extension of that northern corridor strategy, built for the professionals working in and around those parks and the growing employment base near Kempegowda International Airport.
Embassy Springs was announced in 2016 as Embassy Group's largest masterplanned residential offering. Embassy Group announced the launch of Embassy Springs, Bengaluru's largest masterplanned city, within the silicon valley of India, spread across 300 acres in North Bangalore, comprising 188 acres of plots, 41 acres of apartments, 22 acres of villas and row houses, 20 acres of club and schools and 35 acres of commercial and retail space. The township sits at Nagamangala Village, Devanahalli, close to the airport approach road, and the developer has since built out its plotted, villa, row house and apartment components in phases. The township enjoys location advantages as it is just 10 km from Kempegowda International Airport, and well-connected to NH44 (Bellary Road), Hebbal, and the upcoming Airport Metro Line. Landscape design across the township was handled by Cicada, described on Embassy's own site as Asia's leading landscape architects, working alongside RSP Architects for masterplanning.
The plotted component of Embassy Springs remains one of its defining features. 809 plots spread across 188 acres, with more than 32 parks ranging 5,500 to 85,000 sq ft, sit within the township. Villas within the layout range from 2,100 to 5,400 sq.ft., and the wider social infrastructure includes a large clubhouse, schools, a hospital, and retail space woven into the masterplan, consistent with Embassy's approach at Manyata of pairing residential or commercial product with on-ground amenity investment.
Embassy Edge is the apartment cluster within Embassy Springs, positioned as the entry point into the township for buyers seeking ready urban-format homes rather than a plot to build on. Embassy Edge sits within Embassy Springs as a smart-home cluster, with its first phase spread across 12 acres of an overall 36 acres, designed for buyers who value convenience delivered through connected home technology. The apartments were configured across 1, 2 and 3 BHK layouts, with 1, 2 and 3 BHK homes of sizes ranging between 607 to 1406 sq.ft. Embassy positioned Edge specifically for the professional catchment working in the surrounding business corridor, noting that the location sits few minutes distance from some major upcoming office spaces such as Wipro, Shell, Oracle, Coca Cola, CITI Bank and ABB. Within the broader apartment zone of the township, which spans 41 acres in multiple clusters like Embassy Edge, Verde, and others, Edge remains the segment aimed at younger, first-time and rental-oriented buyers, while villas, row houses and plots at Embassy Springs serve a different, larger-format buyer.
Embassy Springs sits inside a locality that has re-rated sharply since the airport corridor began filling in with industry and infrastructure. The employment ecosystem around Devanahalli has expanded significantly since 2020, with the KIADB Aerospace Park now housing facilities for Boeing, Airbus, Dassault, and DRDO, employing approximately 50,000 professionals within a 10 km radius of the airport. Connectivity is being reinforced through the metro network under construction: the upcoming Doddajala Metro station will connect Devanahalli to Bangalore's metro network, reducing commute times to Hebbal to under 25 minutes once operational in 2028-29. On pricing, branded developer supply in the micro-market has moved from a low base: the corridor has appreciated 106% from Rs 5,500/sqft in 2020, and land in the wider township belt has followed a similar trajectory, with reports noting flat rates in Devanahalli, Bangalore changed by 11.8% in the last 1 year, 57.0% in the last 3 years, 72.7% in the last 5 years and 108.8% in the last 10 years. This is the demand backdrop against which Embassy Group's own township product at Springs — plots, villas, row houses and Embassy Edge apartments — continues to be transacted, and it is also why several other national developers have since entered the same Devanahalli corridor around Embassy's original 300-acre footprint.
Embassy Springs is one part of a residential portfolio that spans several Bangalore addresses and now extends to Mumbai. Other named developments from the group include Embassy Citadel in Worli, Mumbai, Embassy Verde 2.0 in Devanahalli, Bangalore, Embassy Park in Panvel, Mumbai, and Embassy Green Shores in Sadahalli, Bangalore, alongside earlier landmark residential projects such as Embassy Boulevard and Embassy Lake Terraces in Bangalore. Following a corporate restructuring, the merger of NAM Estates Private Limited, an Embassy Group entity effective 24th January 2025, made the company one of India's largest listed real estate players focused on the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, National Capital Region and Bengaluru, with a delivered space of 30 million sq. ft. and 15 million sq. ft. of unsold inventory across 8 cities, and 19 completed projects. For a buyer evaluating Embassy Springs and Embassy Edge specifically, that scale translates into a developer with an established delivery record in the same Devanahalli-Hebbal-Airport Road belt, rather than a first-time entrant to the corridor.
