Brigade Group has signed a lease agreement for a 7-acre prime site in Chennai to develop a mixed-use project, the company announced in a regulatory filing. The planned development will include over 1 million sq ft of Grade A office space along with a 225-key 5-star deluxe hotel, located on Old Mahabalipuram Road (OMR), one of Chennai’s key commercial corridors.
The project site is situated in the Tharamani–OMR belt, a corridor that has become Chennai’s IT and innovation hub. The area hosts global technology firms, leading educational institutions, hospitals, retail centers, and large residential developments, making it a strategic location for office and commercial investments.
Pradyumna Krishna Kumar, Executive Director of Brigade Enterprises Limited, said the project aligns with the company’s long-term growth strategy. He noted, “Chennai continues to be a key component of our growth strategy, and this long-term lease underscores our commitment to strengthening our presence in the city’s most promising corridors. With over 1 million sq ft of premium office space and a flagship 5-star deluxe hotel, this project reflects our vision to create high-value, future-ready assets that elevate Chennai’s urban and commercial landscape.”
The project adds to Brigade Group’s ongoing expansion in Chennai. In June 2025, the company announced a residential project in South Chennai with a gross development value (GDV) of ₹2,100 crore. Spread over 14.7 acres in the Sholinganallur–Medavakkam corridor, the project, named Brigade Morgan Heights, offers approximately 2.2 million sq ft of premium apartments. The development is strategically positioned 150 meters from the upcoming Classical Tamil Institute Metro Station, with key IT parks such as ELCOT, Wipro, and Cognizant reachable within a 10-minute drive, enhancing accessibility for working professionals.
Earlier in May 2025, Brigade Group acquired a 5.41-acre land parcel on Velachery Road for ₹441 crore to develop a residential project with a GDV of around ₹1,600 crore. The project is expected to offer approximately 0.8 million sq ft of residential space.
These projects demonstrate Brigade Group’s strategy of targeting high-growth urban corridors and integrating office, residential, and hospitality developments. By combining commercial office space with hospitality and residential offerings, the company aims to create mixed-use destinations that address demand from corporate, residential, and retail segments simultaneously.
Industry analysts note that Chennai’s OMR corridor continues to attract significant investments due to its established IT ecosystem and improving infrastructure. Brigade Group’s move to develop over 1 million sq ft of Grade A office space, coupled with a luxury hotel, is expected to enhance the city’s commercial landscape and provide premium facilities for tenants and visitors.
