Bengaluru-based Century Real Estate has raised ₹1,850 crore in debt funding to accelerate its growth, targeting a Gross Development Value (GDV) of ₹14,000 crore. The round was led by Ares Asia, which invested ₹1,600 crore across two tranches, with an additional ₹250 crore from SC Lowy.
The funds will be used to develop residential and Grade A commercial projects in key Bengaluru locations, particularly in the high-growth northern and eastern corridors. These areas are gaining traction due to improved metro connectivity and proximity to the airport, making them attractive to high-net-worth individuals and businesses.
Century Real Estate is capitalizing on Bengaluru’s rise as a luxury real estate and Global Capability Centre (GCC) hub. The company has recorded consistent year-on-year growth, doubling its performance annually over the past five years.
Knight Frank’s Wealth Report 2025 highlights the increasing demand in these micro-markets, reinforcing Century’s strategic focus on this expanding segment.
