Mana Capitol, Carmelaram: Resale Buyer's Guide for October 2026
A buyer who wants a ready flat around Carmelaram will sooner or later look at Mana Capitol. Mana Projects built it as a mixed campus of homes, offices and shops at Chikkakannalli, East Bangalore. The builder has nothing left to sell, so each deal today is between two private parties.
Where Construction Stands
Karnataka RERA records show Towers 1 and 2 at 100% in a filing dated 20 February 2026, under a registration that was extended for Covid and ran to 30 September 2026. The filing of 15 July 2026 shows Towers 3, 4 and 5 at 99%, due by 30 March 2027 as registered.
A revised plan for those three towers, using transferable development rights, got approval on 3 May 2024. Ask whether the occupancy certificate extends to the floor that interests you. Separately, the portal carries a single August 2025 complaint about construction defects in the first two towers.
Registered Particulars
The roughly 7-acre plot carries 691 residential units in five towers. Each tower has 17 or 18 floors and two basement levels. The BDA cleared the building plan, and the land covered by the two residential registrations is 19,222 sq m (near 4.75 acres).
- Promoter: D Kishore Reddy, who founded Mana Projects

- RERA, remaining three towers: PRM/KA/RERA/1251/446/PR/200113/003154 from 13 January 2020
- Site record: Chikkakannalli, Varthur hobli, Bangalore East taluk (560035), survey number 31/1
- Project kind: residential combined with commercial space
Sizes of Each Home Type
The options are one-, two- and three-bedroom flats, with a small number of duplexes on the upper floors. RERA carpet figures are well below the sizes used in marketing, as the list shows.
- Single-bedroom flat: carpet of roughly 432 sq ft, inside a marketed 699 sq ft
- Two-bedroom flat: carpet of 640-720 sq ft (approx.), against a marketed 1,061-1,135 sq ft
- Three-bedroom flat: carpet of 915-1,115 sq ft (approx.), against a marketed 1,447-1,558 sq ft
- Duplex: carpet of 1,945-1,985 sq ft (approx.); the marketed size is given on request
Compare flats by carpet area, the floor space within the walls. A balcony is entered separately for every unit. Get the figure written into your agreement and cross-check it with the registered number.
Getting Around
The campus is part of the Sarjapura Road area, on the Marathahalli-Sarjapur Road section, with RGA Tech Park right beside it. A brief drive reaches Wipro's campus on the same road, Carmelaram railway station is near, and the Bellandur and Kadubeesanahalli offices of the Outer Ring Road are further up.
Expect heavy traffic at rush hour. A Red Line for Namma Metro (Phase 3A, from Sarjapur to Hebbal) is planned alongside, but only as a proposal, so base your commute estimate on the road as it is today.
What the Campus Offers
RERA lists a clubhouse, swimming pool, gym, parks, and indoor and outdoor sports areas. Retail and offices share the site, which keeps small errands close. Go there on an evening and watch the pool, gym and lifts, since 691 households use them together.
Money Matters in a Resale
Owners decide their own asking prices, which move with tower, floor, facing and the quality of interiors. For a realistic benchmark, look up what identical plans in the same tower fetched at registration.
Keep room in the budget for these extras:
- Registration at 2%, and stamp duty of 5.6% (cess and surcharge included) where the home costs more than Rs. 45 Lakhs
- Transfer charges, where the developer or association levies them
- Dues for maintenance, the corpus fund and property tax
- Lender and legal fees
Completed homes sold once an occupancy certificate exists carry no GST. The EMI calculator turns a price and down payment into a monthly figure before you negotiate.
Matching Buyer to Flat
Young professionals at nearby tech parks can manage in the smallest flat, and households needing more room can look at the bigger layouts. Landlords can count on tenants from Carmelaram and Outer Ring Road employers.
Anyone who values a small quiet society, or wants to pay in instalments as a building rises, will not find that here. Resale needs nearly all the cash at registration, and the flat comes as the owner left it.
Mana Projects Background
Mana Projects was started by D. Kishore Reddy in 2000, and he is chairman and managing director today. The builder works mostly on Sarjapur Road, and its registered projects include Mana Tropicale, Uber Verdant, Mana Dale and Mana Jardin Neo. An older Mana society is the best place to judge how its buildings age.
Verification Steps
Because the project has only just been completed, document checks matter more than usual. Here is a sequence to follow:
- Secure the occupancy certificate and read which towers and floors it names
- Check that the unit number, carpet area and parking slot agree with the RERA listing
- Review the seller's sale deed or agreement, khata and tax receipts
- Take an encumbrance certificate to prove earlier loans are settled
- Obtain the association's no-dues letter and ask about the maintenance rate
- Look over the walls and floors for damp, cracks and poor finishing, and test the water supply
- Find out the present state of the RERA complaint
Any finished flat in the neighbourhood deserves the same scrutiny. Pay a token only after a property lawyer has read the shortlisted unit's papers.
