Shriram Properties Ltd is not an outside entrant testing the Jalahalli market — it is a Bengaluru company building in the city where it started. The company commenced operations in Bengaluru and completed its first residential project, Shriram Shriranjani, in September 2000. Shriram Properties Limited is headquartered in Bengaluru and is part of the Shriram Group, a diversified financial services conglomerate founded by R. Thyagarajan. Murali Malayappan, the company's Chairman and Managing Director, built the business from its early years in Bengaluru into one of South India's more prominent real estate names. In 2021, Shriram Properties was listed on the Bombay Stock Exchange and the National Stock Exchange of India.
The company's portfolio comprises 51 thoughtfully developed projects spanning over 31.5 million square feet, primarily in Bengaluru, Chennai, and Kolkata. It has recently also entered the Pune market to explore new growth opportunities. Institutional capital has backed several of its projects along the way: the company counts investors like Walton St Capital, Starwood Capital Group, and Mitsubishi Corporation among its partners.
Shriram The Poem is a 7-acre residential development in Jalahalli, offering 2 and 2.5 BHK apartments designed with a distinctive C-shaped layout for scenic views and greenery. The project comprises 660 units across six towers, each rising to a ground floor plus 18 or 19 upper storeys. Apartments are priced starting at ₹72.46 Lakhs, positioning the project firmly in the mid-market segment that has long been Shriram Properties' core strength. The project is set to offer possession in 2026. It carries RERA registration under number PRM/KA/RERA/1251/309/PR/210319/004033.
The project sits off Hesaraghatta-Bangalore Pipe Road in Jalahalli West, close to Royal Street, with a lakeside setting near several operational metro stations in the immediate vicinity. Dasarahalli metro station is the nearest metro station from Shriram The Poem. The location is roughly 5.8 km from the Outer Ring Road and 5 km from Tumkur Road, keeping it within easy reach of key city landmarks. The development also offers reasonable access to major hubs such as Yeshwanthpur, Hebbal, and Manyata Tech Park.
Jalahalli is not a speculative frontier for the developer — it is an established, employment-dense corridor of the city Shriram Properties has built in for a quarter century. The suburb, divided into Jalahalli East and West, falls under BBMP jurisdiction and combines residential neighbourhoods with defence-related facilities and proximity to the Peenya industrial zone. The area houses major industrial companies like Bharat Electronics Limited, Hindustan Machine Tools, CMTI, and other public sector undertakings. Adjoining Peenya adds further weight to the demand base: the industrial area is home to nearly 13,000 micro, small, and medium enterprises, making it one of the largest manufacturing clusters in India. This concentration of PSU, defence, and manufacturing employment gives a builder like Shriram Properties — historically focused on the mid-market, salaried-buyer segment — a dependable catchment of end-users rather than a purely speculative one.
Jalahalli also benefits from Namma Metro's Green Line at Jalahalli station, connecting it to central Bengaluru while retaining a semi-suburban character. This is consistent with a broader city-wide pattern the developer's other Bengaluru launches have followed: properties within a 500-metre radius of metro stations have observed a 20-40% increase in value over the past few years. Shriram Properties already has one other active address in the immediate locality, Shriram Codename Treasure Island, in the heart of Jalahalli connected to the NICE Peripheral Ring Road, alongside a wider North Bengaluru presence spanning Yelahanka and Hebbal.
Across its portfolio, Shriram Properties has tended to compete on open space and amenity count rather than superlative pricing, and The Poem follows that pattern. Seventy percent of the development is dedicated to landscaped gardens, recreational areas, and open green zones. Residents have access to a swimming pool with a kids' pool, a cycling and jogging track, a clubhouse, a children's play area, and a cricket practice pitch. Security is handled through 24x7 personnel, a security cabin, and intercom access across the community.
The pricing at Shriram The Poem tracks closely with the broader North Bengaluru corridor along Tumkur Road, where budget-conscious buyers can still find entry points below ₹6,000 per square foot while benefiting from upcoming infrastructure improvements. This positions a Shriram Properties purchase in Jalahalli as an entry into an established, infrastructure-backed micro-market rather than a bet on an unproven one — consistent with the developer's stated focus, since its founding in Bengaluru, on offering quality homes at accessible prices in the mid-market segment rather than chasing the city's premium central addresses.
