DRA Astra

DRA Homes officially launched DRA Astra on January 31, 2025 at Madhavaram High Road in North Chennai — their first major residential launch of the year. RERA: TN/29/Building/0018/2025. Possession expected October 2027. The project sits on 1.22 acres offering 132 apartments: 2 BHK+2T (1,066–1,275 sq ft) and 3 BHK+2T/3T (1,345–1,695 sq ft). Pricing starts at ₹83 L and goes up to ₹1.31 Cr at approximately ₹6,599/sq ft. All homes are 100% Vastu-compliant and three-side ventilated. The standout selling point is adjacency to an upcoming Chennai metro station on the Phase 2 expansion, which if delivered will dramatically improve connectivity from Madhavaram to the rest of the city. Amenities include a Zen garden, AC gym, open amphitheater, and dedicated play areas — 30+ total amenities for a project of this size. Madhavaram is North Chennai's fastest-growing residential corridor, with prices rising steadily as infrastructure catches up. DRA has a long track record in North Chennai (including DRA Polaris and DRA Trinity). Has anyone visited Astra? Want to understand the exact distance to the proposed metro station and whether that line is actually on schedule.

DRA Inara

DRA Inara is a landmark launch — DRA Homes' first-ever luxury independent villa community, launched in March 2025 at Navalur on the OMR IT corridor. This is a ₹100 Crore project investment. RERA: TN/35/Building/0053/2025. Spread across 6 acres, Inara offers 118 independent villas in 3 BHK (1,952 sq ft), 4 BHK, and 5 BHK (up to 3,697 sq ft) configurations with complete land ownership per villa. Pricing starts from ₹1.70 Cr for the 3 BHK variants. The project includes 50+ amenities and sits in one of OMR's most established stretches near Navalur junction. DRA pivoting to independent villas after decades of apartment delivery is significant. Navalur is a mature micro-market on the OMR South corridor with excellent access to Sholinganallur IT parks, Siruseri SIPCOT, and the proposed metro extension. Independent villas at 6 acres with 118 units means reasonable density and good green space per home. With DRA's 38-year track record in apartments, how well does their execution translate to villa construction? The land ownership model (vs leasehold/strata) needs to be verified in the agreement documents. Has anyone attended the launch event or visited the site? Would like buyer perspectives on the villa specifications and pricing.

DRA iHeart

DRA iHeart launched October 23, 2025 at Egattur (Navalur area) on the OMR — positioned as "Chennai's first branded sea-view residences." RERA: TNRERA/35/BLG/0293/2025. Possession expected July 2033. This is a high-rise of B+S+19 floors offering 271 units across 3.42 acres. Unit sizes: 1,595–2,927 sq ft in 3 BHK and 4 BHK with select maid room configurations. Pricing runs from ₹2.15 Cr to ₹3.41 Cr at approximately ₹8,050/sq ft. The "sea-view" branding stems from the OMR South proximity to the Bay of Bengal — upper floors on the 19-storey tower would have unobstructed views depending on orientation. DRA is the first Indian developer to use Slate AI construction intelligence technology, enabling real-time build quality monitoring. At ₹2.15–3.41 Cr for a Chennai apartment, this is firmly in the luxury bracket and will compete with projects like Casagrand Titanium and Godrej Park Estate on OMR. The 2033 possession (8 years out) is a long commitment — longer than typical Chennai projects. Has anyone evaluated iHeart? Is the sea-view claim validated by the floor plan data, and how does Slate AI actually translate to buyer benefit during construction?

DRA Marina 100

DRA Marina 100 is a deliberately limited boutique development — exactly 100 homes in Egattur on the OMR South corridor, launched with RERA registration in 2026 (TNRERA/35/BLG/0115/2026). Possession expected February 2031. Unit configurations are 2 BHK (1,245 sq ft) and 3 BHK (1,938 sq ft), priced from ₹1.03 Cr to ₹2.79 Cr on the Rajiv Gandhi Salai. The exclusivity of exactly 100 homes means the community clubhouse, pool, and amenities serve a far smaller resident base than typical apartment complexes in this corridor. Egattur/Navalur on the OMR is one of Chennai South's most active real estate micro-markets — well past the congestion of Perumbakkam and Sholinganallur, with good access to SIPCOT Siruseri and the existing IT campuses along Old Mahabalipuram Road. DRA has two simultaneous launches here (iHeart and Marina 100), suggesting confidence in the micro-market absorption. The name "Marina 100" is interesting — does it imply proximity to Marina Beach or is it purely branding? Also wondering how the ₹1.03–2.79 Cr range is so wide for what seems like two configuration types. Would appreciate any info from people who have attended site visits or enquired about unit allocation.
