Mumbai / Bengaluru, 24th  June, 2025 – Arbour Investments, India’s first Capital-to-Consumer platform, engineered to institutionalize real estate investment through a proprietary blend of trust engineering, execution architecture, and capital governance systems has announced a ₹105 crore investment commitment to ELV Projects Pvt. Ltd., a reputed Bengaluru-based developer. This also marks Arbour’s entry into the South Market. The partnership is aimed at funding two marquee residential developments—ELV Highgarden and ELV Kingsland—in Whitefield, East Bengaluru. As part of the transaction, Arbour has already disbursed the first tranche of ₹20 crore, reinforcing its confidence in ELV’s delivery capabilities and the market’s growth trajectory.

The projects span a combined built-up area of 11,73,528 sq. ft., comprising 596 residential units across five towers. Designed to offer modern 2BHK to 4BHK homes, both developments are RERA-registered and slated for completion by October 2026.

Strategically located in Whitefield, one of India’s fastest-growing urban micro-markets, the developments benefit from excellent connectivity to employment hubs such as ITPL Tech Hub and, Divyasree Techno Park. The area has recorded a 60% increase in capital values since 2021, with prices rising from ₹6,400 to ₹10,300 per sq. ft., driven by sustained demand, infrastructure upgrades, and rising institutional interest.

“Our partnership with ELV Projects reflects Arbour’s conviction in backing execution-focused developers in structurally sound micro-markets,” said Priyesh Chheda, Founder, Arbour Investments. “We prioritise capital deployment where delivery certainty, governance alignment, and stakeholder value converge. Bengaluru continues to exhibit strong fundamentals, and this investment is an extension of our strategy to build a performance-driven national portfolio rooted in discipline and trust.”
