Bren Northern Lights, Kogilu Cross: Ready 2 BHK Flats, Price and RERA Facts
Hundreds of flats at one address, all already built, make Bren Northern Lights unusual in a part of the city full of launches. Bren Corporation put up 716 two-bedroom apartments across nine buildings on 7 acres near Kogilu Cross, and the occupancy certificate arrived in March 2023. The sections below cover plans and prices, the surroundings, legal status and a checklist for both fresh and second-hand purchases.
Plans and What They Cost
The only configuration is the 2 BHK, and it comes in four layouts. The Type 4 plan is the smallest at roughly 584 sq ft, followed by Type 1 at 674 sq ft, Type 2 at 690 sq ft and Type 3 at 769 sq ft.
Starting prices begin at Rs. 67 Lakhs. Our team can send a list by size for the flats still held by the developer, along with availability. Owners also sell on the resale market, and their prices move with the floor, the size and the state of the flat.
Extra charges
GST is not levied here because the flats are finished and the project has its occupancy certificate. A buyer should still plan for these costs:
- A parking bay, together with a check that the sale deed names it
- Karnataka stamp duty of 5% with surcharges, and a 2% registration fee
- A deposit towards maintenance, and clubhouse membership
- When buying second-hand, a transfer fee for the association and its no-dues letter
Surroundings and Access
The project occupies Sy. No. 8 at Gastikempanahalli in Yelahanka Hobli, close to Jakkur. Thanisandra Main Road and Bellary Road both serve the area. The first reaches Manyata Tech Park, Hennur and Bhartiya City, while the second runs to the airport one way and to Hebbal and central Bangalore the other way.
A Blue Line metro to the airport is planned over Bellary Road, with proposed stops at Jakkur Cross and close to Kogilu Cross, though work is still under way. Residents therefore rely on roads at present. The Kogilu area guide covers the neighbourhood in more detail.
Shared Facilities
The swimming pool, gym and clubhouse lead the list of more than 25 amenities, and there is also a sports zone in the grounds. Residents have been living here since 2023, so a visit reveals how each amenity is managed and maintained now.
Because 716 households share them, see the pool, courts and lifts at busy times. The owners' association can describe what the monthly maintenance charge covers.
Is It for You?
Families and individuals who want a ready two-bedroom home in the north, with no waiting for a builder, are the natural buyers. They can inspect the actual flat, the lifts, the parking and shared areas first, so delays and progress risk do not arise.
Smaller households and investors who count on tenants from nearby offices will find the sizes sensible. A family needing three bedrooms, or space beyond roughly 800 sq ft, should look elsewhere in North Bangalore.
Registration Details
Registration with Karnataka RERA dates from 7 February 2019 and carries the number PRM/KA/RERA/1251/309/PR/190207/002365. The BBMP sanctioned the plan, and the portal shows the project as completed.
A finished flat is judged first by its occupancy certificate, which banks, lawyers and later buyers all ask for. This one carries the date 23 March 2023, and a copy for the right building belongs in the purchase file.
The Basics
Measured against other North Bangalore projects, this is a compact high-density development of mid-rise blocks:
- Developer: Bren Corporation
- Buildings: nine, each with two basement levels, ground and nine floors
- Flats: 716, every one a 2 BHK
- Status: complete, with the certificate dated 23 March 2023
Who Built It
Bren Corporation is a Bangalore builder with finished projects in the south, east and north. Bren Park City, off Electronic City at Hulimangala, is part of its current work. Its other projects are listed on the Bren Corporation page.
Things to Do Before Booking
With construction risk gone, the checks narrow to the unit and its papers. Before paying beyond a token sum, follow these steps:
- Request a price in writing for the precise flat, showing each charge.
- Get the occupancy certificate and an approved plan on which the flat is marked.
- Let a lawyer examine the title, the khata and a recent encumbrance certificate.
- For a resale, read the owner's registered deed and secure the association's no-dues letter.
- Visit the flat to look for damp, check fittings and finishes, and count the lifts for each building.
- Time the evening drive to Bellary Road and the office.
A completed flat is conveyed by a registered sale deed. Once that is done, the khata and the utility connections are shifted to the buyer.
