Factors for Growth in the Past

The most prominent growth factor for the locality has been the emergence of IT hubs in the surrounding localities of OMR and Sholinganallur. The area quickly rose to become a potential option for the young IT crowd, spurring the residential project development. Once apartments and houses were built, they were sold at cheap prices, attracting more home buyers and kick starting the growth in the commercial sector.

Residential Market Analysis

The residential market in this locality consists mostly of multi-storey apartment buildings, followed by residential plots in Perumbakkam, with the presence of only a few independent houses. The apartment types available vary from 1-3 BHK units, and are available in the price bracket of Rs 4,600-6,400 per sq. ft.

The individual houses available are generally in 3-4 BHK configuration, falling in the price bracket of Rs 6,500-7,000 per sq. ft., while residential plots are available for Rs 3,200-3500 per sq. ft.

Major Challenges

Contamination of groundwater is a major civic challenge. At present, the water is not potable; in fact, the residents don’t even use it for washing and cleaning purposes. It is likely that the water from the lake will become unusable, if the groundwater seeps into the lake and contaminates it.

Being relatively new, Perumbakkam still has a long way to go to build up an adequate urban infrastructure. For instance, the roads need to be repaired, and then maintained well.

Factors for Growth in the Future

The future of Perumbakkam is bright. With the announcement of the ELCOT-SEZ project, investors and buyers alike are hoping for significant returns on investment; and rightfully so, because once this SEZ is active, a capital appreciation of 100 per cent can be expected.

Several IT companies have also expressed their interest in setting up offices in Perumbakkam. These developments coupled with the upcoming metro line along the GST Road will further boost the realty market of this small suburban locality.
