Century Liva

About Century Liva

Century Liva is an under-construction gated residential community on Doddaballapur Main Road, Yelahanka, North Bangalore. Developed by Century Real Estate Holdings — a builder with over 50 years in the Bangalore market — the project sits on approximately 2.9 to 3.25 acres (figures vary slightly across registered documents) with a single residential tower of 2 basements + Ground + 17 floors housing 247 apartments. Configurations run from 3 BHK residences to 4 BHK penthouses, with the core differentiator being that nearly 80% of the land is left as open landscaped space — an unusually high ratio for a compact North Bangalore plot. The project was designed by Architect Anup Naik and launched in July 2024.

Key Highlights

• Single tower, 247 units — G+17 floors with 6 apartments per floor and 2 lifts; low-density living on roughly 3 acres
• RERA registered — Karnataka RERA No. PRM/KA/RERA/1251/309/PR/130924/007015; Commencement Certificate (CC) already issued
• 80% open green area — approximately 2.3 of 2.9 acres is landscaped open space; podium lifestyle concept
• 40+ amenities — infinity swimming pool, gymnasium, party hall, mini theatre, yoga zone, multipurpose court, elders' nook, kids' play zone
• Vastu-compliant layouts — all units designed for cross-ventilation and maximum natural light; wide private decks
• Smart home features — video door phones, modular switches, and engineered wood doors across all units
• Airport proximity — Kempegowda International Airport reachable in approximately 20–25 minutes via NH-44
• Possession target December 2028 — RERA-registered completion date; CLP (Construction Linked Plan) payment available

Location Advantages

Century Liva sits on Doddaballapur Main Road in Muddanahalli, Yelahanka — a rapidly developing corridor in North Bangalore. NH-44 runs adjacent, giving residents direct access to Hebbal, the Central Business District, and the airport. Manyata Tech Park is roughly 30 minutes by road, making this viable for IT professionals, though peak-hour traffic on Bellary Road can push that to 45–50 minutes. The upcoming Namma Metro Blue Line extension (Phase 2B), with a planned Yelahanka station, promises to significantly improve city connectivity once operational. Yelahanka Railway Station sits 6.4 km away for suburban rail users.

On the flip side, Doddaballapur Road sees heavy truck traffic, particularly at night, since it connects to industrial zones. The immediate surroundings of the project still have significant undeveloped parcels, so new construction activity and dust will be a reality for residents for the next few years. Flooding has historically not been a major concern for Yelahanka's elevated stretches, but low-lying parts of the locality have seen waterlogging during heavy monsoons.

Construction Progress

Century Liva was officially launched in July 2024 and the Commencement Certificate (CC) has been issued. As of early 2025, the project is in the active construction phase. RERA-registered completion date is December 31, 2028 — giving a roughly four-year construction window from launch, which is typical for a G+17 single-tower project of this scale. The Occupancy Certificate (OC) will be applied for closer to handover as per standard Karnataka regulatory practice. No RERA-reported delays have been flagged as of the date of this report. Buyers should track quarterly progress updates on the Karnataka RERA portal under the registered RERA number.

Investment Analysis

• Current pricing vs. area average: Century Liva is priced at approximately ₹9,900/sq.ft., while the Yelahanka locality average sits around ₹10,300/sq.ft. — meaning the project is marginally below the area benchmark, which is notable for a new launch by a branded developer.
• Price appreciation (Q3 2025 data): The project saw a 2.05% price increase in a single quarter (Q3 2025), tracking the broader Yelahanka locality's ~9.8% YoY appreciation trend. Continued metro and airport-driven demand supports this trajectory.
• Rental yield: 3 BHK apartments in Yelahanka currently rent in the ₹25,000–₹45,000/month range depending on floor, furnishing, and exact sub-locality. At a purchase price of ₹1.65 Cr, gross rental yield works out to roughly 2.0%–2.8% — modest, but typical for a city-fringe Bangalore new launch.
• Resale demand: The single-tower, low-density format with high open space is a genuine differentiator and tends to command a slight resale premium versus dense complexes in the same corridor.
• Comparable projects in the same budget:
  • Brigade Eternia, Yelahanka — ₹10,500–₹11,000/sq.ft., higher density
  • Concorde Mayfair, Yelahanka — ₹9,500–₹10,000/sq.ft., similar range
  • Vajram Tiara, Yelahanka — ₹10,000–₹10,800/sq.ft., established developer
• Key risk: Metro Phase 2B delays could slow near-term appreciation. Projects closer to Manyata Tech Park (Hebbal, Thanisandra) offer stronger rental yield for IT tenant demand.

Pros and Cons

Pros

• RERA-registered with CC issued — full regulatory compliance; buyers can verify progress on the Karnataka RERA portal quarterly
• 80% open space in a compact plot — rare in North Bangalore's current market; the single-tower format means no inter-building privacy issues
• Established 50-year-old developer — Century Real Estate has delivered multiple projects in Bangalore (Century Ethos, Century Unbelievable, Century Eden) with a relatively clean track record in this city
• Airport corridor growth story — Yelahanka benefits from the Namma Metro extension and ongoing NH-44 infrastructure upgrades; property values in this belt have appreciated consistently
• Smart specifications — video door phones, engineered wood doors, vitrified tiles, and granite kitchen platforms are standard, not optional — unlike many projects at this price point where these are paid upgrades

Cons

• Heavy truck traffic on Doddaballapur Road — the arterial road serves industrial freight; noise levels, especially at night, can be a genuine concern for upper-floor residents facing the main road
• No metro connectivity today — the Yelahanka metro station is part of Phase 2B, which has faced repeated timeline revisions; residents will depend entirely on personal vehicles or BMTC buses until metro arrives
• Manyata Tech Park is 30–45 minutes away — this project is often positioned as an IT-hub home, but the commute to Manyata in peak traffic is a real daily grind; better suited to airport-sector or Yelahanka-area workers
• High floor density within the tower — 6 units per floor served by just 2 lifts; during peak morning hours, lift wait times may become a frustration as all 247 households share the same vertical circulation

Who Should Buy This

Ideal for: Families where one or both working adults have jobs near the airport, Yelahanka, or Doddaballapur KIADB industrial area — the commute works. Also well-suited for NRIs looking for a RERA-safe, established-developer investment in North Bangalore's growth corridor. End-users who prioritise open space and a low-density community over proximity to IT parks will find the format genuinely different from cookie-cutter high-rises.

Not ideal for: IT professionals commuting daily to Electronic City, Whitefield, or Outer Ring Road — the location adds unnecessary commute distance. Budget-first buyers will also find that GST, registration, and floor-rise charges can push the all-in cost meaningfully above the headline price.

FAQ — Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is Century Liva RERA registered?

A: Yes. Karnataka RERA number is PRM/KA/RERA/1251/309/PR/130924/007015. You can verify the project status directly on rera.karnataka.gov.in. The Commencement Certificate has also been issued.

Q: What is the possession date for Century Liva?

A: The RERA-registered possession date is December 31, 2028. As of mid-2025 the project is on track with no reported delays on the RERA portal.

Q: What is the price range for Century Liva apartments?

A: 3 BHK units start from approximately ₹1.59 Cr for the smallest Optima variant (1,650 sq.ft. SBU) and go up to ₹1.79 Cr for larger 3 BHK layouts. 4 BHK penthouses can reach ₹6.30 Cr. All prices are indicative — floor rise and PLC add to the final cost.

Q: Is Century Real Estate a reliable builder?

A: Century Real Estate, founded in 1973, is one of Bangalore's oldest developers with a portfolio including Century Ethos (Hebbal), Century Unbelievable (Yelahanka), and Century Trails (Devanahalli). The builder has a generally positive track record in this city, though buyers should verify individual project delivery timelines through the RERA portal before committing.

Q: What is the nearest metro station to Century Liva?

A: There is no operational metro station in Yelahanka currently. The planned Yelahanka station on Namma Metro's Phase 2B (Purple Line extension) is under development but has faced delays. Until this line is operational, residents rely on BMTC buses, Yelahanka Railway Station (~6.4 km), and personal vehicles.

Q: Is Century Liva a good investment?

A: The Yelahanka corridor has shown ~9.8% YoY price appreciation and Century Liva itself saw a 2.05% quarter-on-quarter increase in Q3 2025. The airport-proximity story and planned metro extension support long-term appreciation. However, rental yields (2–2.8%) are modest for short-term income investors. It is more compelling as a 5–7 year capital appreciation play than a rental income vehicle.

Q: How many units and towers does Century Liva have?

A: Century Liva is a single-tower project with 247 residential units spread across G+17 floors. Each floor has 6 apartments served by 2 passenger lifts and 1 staircase.

Q: What configurations are available — is there a 2 BHK option?

A: The primary configurations are 3 BHK (1,650–1,885 sq.ft. SBU) and 4 BHK (2,315–2,345 sq.ft. SBU), plus 4 BHK and 5 BHK penthouses up to 5,275 sq.ft. Some portals list 2 BHK, but as per the majority of verified sources, the core offering is 3 and 4 BHK. Confirm availability of specific configurations directly with the developer's sales team.

Q: What payment plan is available for Century Liva?

A: A Construction-Linked Plan (CLP) is the standard payment option, where payment tranches are linked to construction milestones. Home loans are expected from leading banks. The exact schedule is finalised post-site visit. Flexi or subvention options are not confirmed — check with the developer directly for current offers.
