Adani Oyster Grande

Oyster Grande has been lived in since 2017, which helps if you prefer to watch a society settle before you buy into it. Adani Realty built it on 19 acres in Sector 102, Gurgaon, with 10 towers of 3 and 4 BHK apartments. The project is registered under RERA in phases, with registration numbers 37 OF 2017, 170 OF 2017 and 171 OF 2017, and you can check each one on the state RERA portal before booking.

Those 19 acres are part of a larger development of over 40 acres. The society was designed with privacy in mind, open on three sides, with continuous landscaping running right through it.

The project sits in Sector 102/102A, just off the Dwarka Expressway, on an established stretch of the corridor. Because it's a ready society, you can look at the actual upkeep, the clubhouse and even the neighbours before you sign anything. Your main link is the Dwarka Expressway itself, which runs right alongside the sector and connects you towards Dwarka and Delhi on one side and the rest of Gurgaon on the other.

Possession was given in June 2017, so this is very much a finished society. Inside the gates there's a nursery school, a community centre and convenience shopping, which saves a lot of short drives. There's a lap pool and a kids' pool with shower and changing rooms, and courts for tennis, badminton and basketball.

In other words, this is a good place if your family is sporty. Beyond the courts, you get a clubhouse with a swimming pool, the separate lap pool and kids' pool, a gym, a jogging track and a multi-purpose hall. The usual essentials are covered as well, including 24x7 security with CCTV, fire fighting, power backup, water storage, lifts, parking, housekeeping and maintenance staff.

Homes range from 1,689 to 3,198 sq.ft, and indicative prices start around ₹2.25 Cr. The basic 3 BHK is 1,689 sq.ft and the 3 BHK + Servant is 1,889 sq.ft. Moving up, the 3 BHK + Servant + Puja is 2,550 sq.ft and the 3 BHK + Servant + Study is 2,579 sq.ft. The largest is the 4 BHK + Servant + Puja at 3,198 sq.ft. Resale prices move, so check the current sheet.

Oyster Grande suits families who want a larger home in a mature society, with real sports facilities and a school for small children right on site. Several years of occupation also means you can talk to residents and get an honest picture. For NRIs, a ready home from a large group is easy to hand over to a property manager or a tenant, and the range of 3 BHK layouts gives you some room to choose on budget within the same society.

As with any resale purchase, confirm the carpet area, the parking allotment, the maintenance charges and that there are no pending society dues on the unit before you commit.

Adani Realty is the real estate business of the Ahmedabad-based Adani Group, and its Gurugram presence is centred around Sector 102. Besides Oyster Grande, it has Adani The Marq in Sector 102A, a new launch on a compact 5-acre site, and Adani Tatva Estates in Sector 99A, a plotted project still under development.
