Project score only — not a price check or legal clearance.
Starting price from the developer's site, 9 Oct 2026. Not your unit's quote.
Scored on 5 of 6 factors · #284 of 325. Analysis, not a recommendation.
RERA no. on file from the developer — confirm it on rera.karnataka.gov.in. Title and approvals need a lawyer — Legal Desk.
We don't give a buy or negotiate verdict yet — either the price hasn't been verified with the developer, or unit sizes aren't published so the real ₹/sqft can't be checked. Get the builder's own cost sheet before deciding.
Why
- ● About 15% above the area benchmark. That's an area average, not like-for-like comparables — verify with the cost sheet before concluding it's overpriced.
- ● Possession is about 30 months away — factor in rent and delay risk.
- ● DS-MAX Properties is not yet rated by AlphaDesk — check its RERA history before booking.
Brochure vs Reality
What the sales pitch says — and what the data says.
- “Metro connectivity”Nearest running station: Kengeri (Purple) — 0.69 km, walkable.✓ Holds up
- “Best price / launch offer”About 15% above our fair estimate (fair ≈ ₹6,076/sqft).✕ Doesn't hold
- “Possession soon”No committed date is public — check the RERA registration for the promised date.? Verify
- “Great investment, high appreciation”Likely ~0.8% a year (depreciation risk) vs ~7% from a bank FD. ₹1 Cr could become ~₹1.04 Cr in 5 years.✕ Doesn't hold
- “24×7 water, premium living”In Kengeri, mixed Cauvery + borewell supply is common; flood risk is low. Ask residents of nearby buildings about summer water.? Verify
- “Trusted developer”DS-MAX Properties isn't rated by AlphaDesk yet — check its past projects and complaints on rera.karnataka.gov.in.? Verify
- “All approvals in place”Ask for the RERA number, title deed + 30-year EC, sanctioned plan and (if ready) OC — and verify each yourself.? Verify

Score breakdown
The AlphaScore is an analytical project score — not a price check and not a legal clearance. Weights shown in brackets. Left out for lack of evidence: builder trust — the score is re-weighted over the rest, never filled with a guess.
Asking price against what similar homes in the area are worth
Connectivity, jobs, schools and daily needs
How quickly and well it would sell later
Layout, amenities, maintenance and water
Rental income and expected price growth
What it costs you every month
Smallest unit (₹84 L), 75% loan at 8.5% for 20 years.
- EMI₹54,354
- Maintenance₹4,772
- Property tax₹557
Estimates: maintenance ≈ ₹4/sqft/month, property tax ≈ 0.08% of value a year. Your bank's rate and the builder's maintenance figure will change these.
Can I afford it?
For a ₹84 L home, 20-year loan.
EMI under 35% of income — healthy. If rates rise 2%, EMI becomes ₹62,531 (25% of income).You're short ₹7 L in upfront cash (banks lend at most 75%).
Illustration: 5 years at the area's trend
A what-if, not a forecast: the starting price grown at Kengeri's estimated trend of 10.8% a year. Area trends are AlphaDesk estimates, and past growth doesn't predict future prices.
Rent (estimate): homes here may earn about 3.2% a year — roughly ₹22,269 a month on a ₹84 L home.
