Brigade Autograph Possession Date

The table lists the key dates in the project's journey from pre-launch to possession.

Possession is the day you receive the keys and can move into your home. It comes after the developer finishes construction and secures the required certificates. At Brigade Autograph, the plan gives about two weeks between completion and handover.

The possession date in your agreement for sale is the one that counts legally. So ask the team to state the date clearly in your agreement before you sign.

Brigade Autograph is a large township, and big projects take time to build well. The plan covers 7 towers, each with 4 basements and 48 floors. The township holds 2,299 units, including homes, shops, offices and a 247-key hotel.

Deep basements need careful digging and strong foundations. High-rise towers then rise floor by floor with RCC frames and shear walls. After that come finishes, lifts, clubhouse works, landscaping and final checks. A timeline of about six years from launch suits a project of this scale.

The Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act gives buyers clear rights when a project runs late. Under Section 18, if the developer fails to hand over on time, you have options. You can withdraw and claim a refund with interest. Or you can stay in the project and claim interest for every month of delay.

The Act also asks developers to update project progress on the RERA portal every quarter. This lets you track the build without depending only on sales updates. You can search for the project by its RERA number and read each update yourself.

The Act also caps the advance a developer can take before signing a registered agreement for sale. Under Section 13, this advance cannot cross 10% of the home's cost. So your agreement, with its possession date, comes early in the buying process.

When possession nears, most developers follow a set process. Here is what you can expect at Brigade Autograph.

• Brigade completes construction and applies for the Occupancy Certificate.
• You receive a possession intimation letter with the final dues.
• You pay the balance amount, along with any registration and maintenance charges.
• You visit your home for a final inspection and list any snags.
• The team fixes the snag list and schedules your key handover.
• You register the sale deed at the sub-registrar office and take the keys.

A careful check at handover saves trouble later. Ask for these papers before you accept the keys.

• The Occupancy Certificate issued by the planning authority for your tower.
• The registered sale deed with your name as the owner.
• The possession letter that confirms your handover date.
• Final payment receipts and a no-dues letter.
• Warranty details for fittings, lifts and building systems.

A long timeline gives you time to plan, but it also asks for discipline. If you take a home loan, you may pay pre-EMI interest during construction. Factor this in along with your current rent until you move in.

Investors should also plan for the holding period before rental income starts. A five to seven year view suits this project well. The Whitefield-Hoskote corridor keeps adding roads, offices and metro plans in the meantime.

When you move in, you step into a 21-acre township with about 80% open space. The grand clubhouse offers a multipurpose hall, a banquet hall and a mini theatre. It also has a library and a co-working lounge. Sports lovers get tennis, badminton and squash courts, a pool, a jogging track and a cycling track.

The township sits on Whitefield-Kadugodi Road in Konadasapura, opposite VIBGYOR High School. Old Madras Road (NH 75) is 750 metres away, and ITPL is 9.9 km from the site. Homes start at ₹1 Crore for a 1 BHK. The largest 4 BHK units go up to 2,800 sq.ft. SBA.
