SJR Watermark

SJR Watermark is a project by SJR Group.

SJR Watermark is a completely enclosed compound with 2 convenient accesses, both connecting to the same main road that leads off Sarjapur Road. The 9 blocks just occupy 22% of the ground cover, meaning that almost 78% is a lush green campus with a host of amenities and clubhouse that mean good living.

A large section of the luxurious amenities are along the lake bank, and the Club Neptune clubhouse is aligned to face the lake. Alongside the fully loaded clubhouse are the two swimming pools. The central courtyard is rich with landscaping, trees, walkways and gardens.

  1. The soft launch price is Rs. 2690/- which is a very good price for the location. I did book a 3bhk apartment through Amit Gupta : 9902733733 ( an agency) who said he would do all the paper, bank work too and did not charge any comission and also told if we give him reference he would give some discount too. Mr. Verma.

  2. The floor plan of 3bhk of 1390 sq ft looks like a near replica of dlf westend heights - 1365.

    What will be the cost of 3bhk? when is it getting launched? When is it getting ready? how much is the booking amount? Any words from SJR?

  3. Is it a lake ??? On top of which apartments?
    Just think about it..

  4. NO WATER

    There is no BWSSB water service in this area. Ground water is also very difficult to get.

  5. significant lack of clarity on land acquisition. They claim quite a few houses will be demolished. Also lake wall is around 8-10 feet above site and lot of reports about people having encroached land. The access road is very unclear they just claim the shubh enclave rod is their road. Or they start claiming the road from total mall will be extended to them.

    ReplyDelete
  6. The property papers are fully clear,the shubh enclave road also belongs to BBMP for which the builder has evident papers to prove.They are pretty much competitively priced in that area.Definitely a value for money property to for genuine buyers to check out.

  7. Marketing guys are just worried about money not about customer satisfaction.
    Marketing guys don't have knowledge on this project simply they say something after that they say that is false information sorry about that.

    ReplyDelete
  8. The site plan shows two entrance as the first entrance/exit from 1st Main is still in doubt....builder has to buy property from an existing owner to make that happen..... connectivity from 4th main is present.....

    No activity on site... no boundary wall ... no levelling ...

    lake is already getting renovated....... with jogging track... etc..

    booking amount is 2 lacs.... price has already been revised to 2725 for ground floor.

    ReplyDelete
  9. See the above comment from sjr watermark, there is no clarity on 1st main entrance/exit, but they revised the price. This is how SJR builder satisfy the customer.

    ReplyDelete
  10. I agree that Marketing guys are just worried about money not about customer satisfaction. And they don't have knowledge on the project completely or because nothing is yet decided before its approved. These guys are now only saying that the area might change or the entrance/exit might change. And too sceptical about letting know which all flats are booked or not booked, probably wanted to create more fuzz here.... Do they do any negotiation even if we do book more than 1 flat, or if any body has booked it recently can let know their experience..

    ReplyDelete
  11. what is the current price ?
    is anyone bought recently ?
    How is SJR price Corp? any idea ?

    ReplyDelete
  12. SJR has removed the access road for sjr watermark from the 1st MAIN in their new brochure..... This access road which would have been really good for the sjr watermark project....now you don't have a straight access road....and the access road from harlur road is narrow.....that is why they have shown different road direction for entry and exit..... what a shame....

    They have revised some of the units of 1390 sq ft to 1411 sq ft of 3bhk in which they have increased utility area....

    They have displayed the sjr watermark project during magicbricks.com show on 20th Sep 2010.

  13. I am not able find out why SJR is using a new name for this project ? unless its a purva-provident kind of situation !!

    ReplyDelete
  14. If SJR really wanted to do something like purva-provident.... they should have done it first on sjr unity... sjr watermark is definitely better than plans like sjr unity and provident.....

    I also don't know why they have come up with new entitry.... sjr primcorp....

    Also if you look @ all the new projects launched recently .... they are all like this..... even purva skywood is also similar with a single balcony... and similar carpet area...

    Also take a look at the plans of nagarjuna meadows phase 2.... they have also reduced the area... on similar lines....

    ReplyDelete
  15. Its 25m pool, and not 50m lap pool in their new brochure.
    Cavery water will not be there even after 3 years here. (already known to the builder)
    entrance/exit for the project still unclear.
    Land approval and number of storeys approval, not yet there. Expected within a month.
    No compound wall. No signs of construction anywhere.
    Good thing is the layout plan. abundant green areas. Lakeside, which has potential for quick appreciation. Also, there is a park alongside the lake being undertaken by the govt. (this is just outside alongside the property)

    ReplyDelete
  16. the project approvals are getting delayed, multiple times, i better wait till they actually launch. not a safe bet to invest with them now.

    ReplyDelete
  17. All, What is the current price? Has anyone booked recently ?

    ReplyDelete
  18. "sjr watermark"... Could you please let us know the current rates? And when are you expecting the approval?

    ReplyDelete
  19. Does anyone know when this project is gonna launch? They have been tryin to sell pre-launch offers saying the launch-date is Oct 1st week. But now they are mum on this. Is there a problem with their approvals, etc.. ?
    Pls share light on this..

    ReplyDelete
  20. An apartment near lake .... has lot of mosquito.... and lot of shit that comes from nearby places.... independent houses never uses stp... STP doesn't work always in all the big apartment complexes.... and most of the time... these lakes in Bangalore are nothing more than sewage ... collection .... ponds...... want to stay near pool of shit..... go ahead.....

    We all know the situation of ulsoor lake .etc.... it stinks .... bagmane tech park lake . .....outside... it stinks.......

    Want to stay near stink.........

  21. Little information from my friend....

    Don't ever contact guru prasad of sjr.... he is a useless guy ... little information and of little use to you...

    What sjr brand?

    They don't even have enough money to buy the ... land for approach road...

    one day he says 100 booking are done .... another day... 50 bookings ... and next day 70 bookings ... are done....

    Don't book............till the project starts......they have already changed there floor plan ... 5 times.... in last 3 months.....

    I don't think they have even sent a file for approval.....

    Pay money in advance and stay near shit........


    Consider other projects on hosa road.... like sjr verity, hm symphony and oceanus monarda, oceanus vista.....etc. even sun city gloria may be better than this......

    ReplyDelete
  22. This is one of the good project in that soroundings. i booked the lake facing unit there and lake is renovating by the government.Floor plan are not changed and thay added some more plans for the higher floors.
    There specification is excellent.
    I got proper input from Mr.guruprasad and he is very helpfull.

    This is one of the best project.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Please take inputs from your friends who are already staying in lake facing property of Bangalore and then you can talk.... all of them are staying near pool of shit..... and also full of mosquitoes....


    Ulsoor lake gets renovated every year... but sill you just do 1 round in your 4-wheeler or 2-wheeler.... you will probably understand what the other guy meant...


    ....now you have already lost the privacy also.... single balcony facing lake..... Idiot what is offset of lake's jogging track from your apartment .... everybody will look into your apartment day in and day out.....

    ReplyDelete
  24. whatever he said about guru is true.... who hired him? .... purely bad management decision......

  25. I booked 3bhk - 2T unit in watermark. I m quite happy with the view and the location. other side forest area is there.

    SJR not forcing anyone to buy the lakefacing flat. its a individual decision.

    Its nice location.. i am happy with my decision.

  26. News in Time of India, about a month back states that BWSSB will not even look into granting sanctions till after 2011. Severe water shortgae in the area. All tanker supply.

  30. current price given to me is 2900/sq foot. i have read a lot about SJR on the internet. Lot of grievances against them. i also feel its better to book a flat once everything gets approved. i am surprised that builders are allowed to sell flats without proper approvals in place. just a ploy to maximize their profit.

    ReplyDelete
  31. I booked 3bhk ( 3B+BT) and paid 2 lakhs already,booked this apartment by considering the locality,connectivity,infrastructure and peaceful surroundings.I booked this apartment based on the feedback from my friends who booked other SJR apartments,their feedback is that top management of SJR is good,this group have financial stability and they did some good projects as well,even though their marketing strategy is not that aggressive when compared with Shobha and Nitesh. The reason might be its not IPO company,so they think 100 times before they spent their money on marketing :)

    My comment on lake facing view, its upto individual choice, booking of higher floor is always advisible.In general you see all the builders take premium charges on lake-facing which is common practice they follow.

    My comment on water problem , which is true in Sarjapur road , and also true for Bangalore , if you observe on the same road you still there are more projects from other builders like Shobha(Cinamon),Purva(skyword) etc.., If you carefully watch Shobha advertisement they always says they launched 10 plus projects in Sarjapur road,recent Shobha Classic is their 15th project.

    Even though i booked still have some concerns Initially they said they dont have approvals , surprisingly they deposit the cheque in two days after i booked , its a surprise for me as i was under the impression that they will deposit only after approvals.I am just referring my friends who booked one year ago in Nitesh Hydepark before approvals , their builder did deposit the cheque only after approvals [i.e. after 1 year ],so my advise to SJR team is that they should add little bit transparency in their projects so that they can stand along with other big builders like Shobha and Nitesh.

    I do agree that SJR marketing guys are not true professionals,they does not know whats happening around the their property interms of rates etc..,sometimes they talk nonsense,they mislead their managers and these marketing they never stand on their own words [ example : how many units they sold etc.. ] obviously we should not expect marketing guys to talk truth, only concern they should add transparency in the deals.

    The longer they take to launch this project means they loose their customers ,who will go for other projects who started their work,even-though their price is competitive compared to others.

  32. All... Who have booked flats with SJR Watermark.. what is your stand now? As still they have no approvals... and simply giving some random date when we call? Whats ur take?? Back out?

    ReplyDelete
  33. SJR has just launched SJR Emerald. Any idea how bad or good will this be? Any feedback will be appreciated.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Still no update on the launch, always gives the false commitments.

    Don't know why SJR marketing team gives false commitments first they told in Sep 3rd week... thn Oct mid n thn November 1st week... and now again next week.. still in progress -:(

    Anybody having any update please share with the group.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Hello people, read a lot from you guys on SJR watermark.I am planing to book a flat there. please suggest what all needs to be asked to the builder and points that are to be made clear before going for booking. is it advisable to book a flat in watermark?

    ReplyDelete
  36. Wait Till they get approval.. if they get.. then u can decide if u wanna buy... as u have read still no updates from them.. random dates thrown at people!

    ReplyDelete
  37. They have launched SJR Emerald now...its on main road of Sarjapur outer ring road...anybody have booked this flat please let us know about the details..project looks much better than other SJR as its prime location..

    ReplyDelete
  38. SJR emerald going for 3190/sqft but is it really worth? Look at their floor plans & cluster blocks, one bedroom has no window as it shares common wall with the next block in the cluster. Only one side of the unit is open to air and all other sides shut. Huge retail area in the front which will block your entry/exit during weekends. Also no clarity on the carpet area

    ReplyDelete
  39. I and my Friend have booked two 2BHK flats in Watermark.....I am not sure when they will get the approval....please let us know if any one have any information.......

  44. A word of caution to all you guys who want to invest.. Check the sanctions.. Rule that a high rise cannot be built within a radius of 1 km -- will it be applicable.. These guys are taking all of you for a ride

  45. All

    ReplyDelete
  46. Any idea what is the current rate?

    ReplyDelete
  47. I have heard that they have got the approvals.That's why they started with the excavation.

    ReplyDelete
  48. has anybody booked a lake facing flat in SJR watermark?

    ReplyDelete
  49. Yes I have. What's the current rate they are quoting?

    ReplyDelete
  50. its 3100 first floor ....wat do u think are the prospects of the lake? are the lake facing apts far enuf?

    ReplyDelete
  51. Far from whr? Do you mean the upcoming jogging tracks?
    I have heard that this particular lake is undergoing revamps by LDA. which block and floor you are eyeing?

    ReplyDelete
  52. whats ongoing price now? Have they got all approvals?

    ReplyDelete
  53. I booked it in the month of Septmber..till date, i was just under impression..they maynt get a green light from the govt. But today at the site what i see..it's a good show off. I wish they should maintain the same pace till the possession.:-)

    ReplyDelete
  54. Hi Tilak

    could you explain what is that good show off :)

    ReplyDelete
  55. The launch atmosphere is amazing....if you know about the project and liked it.... you can go and book now.... They sold till 5th floor in pre-launch itself.....had to struggle hard to get an apartment of my choice. ... whatever you ask he says sold out... go higher or choose different units.....if you are interested ...rush or you will not get it.... I was late only by 7 hours on the first day.....I reached there @ 5 PM.

    Since they already have decent booking... I am hopeful that they will start the construction immediately......it is there fastest selling project till date...... more than 25% sold out in pre-launch itself.

    They are not willing to negotiate on the price.. some discount if you pay 10 Lacs now instead of 2 Lacs ...

    I booked one... I have already burnt my fingers thrice in Bangalore in different projects ... God please don't make it fourth time unlucky for me.... I will not be able to digest failure of this one........

    I am keeping my fingers crossed this time ...

  57. what is the discount they are offering, if we pay 10L now?

    ReplyDelete
  58. SJR watermark launch price was 2690 per SQFT in october and just after a month they spent a lot in publicity and increased price to 3150 per SQFT.
    When asked sales person could not explain any proper explanation. I feel real estate nexus increased property price in all bangalore localities.

    One more negative is approach road, which is not clear and project will finish after 2.5 years.

    ReplyDelete
  59. Last month i had gone along with my friends to SJR office to meet Manisha. Firstly we were pissed off as we were made to wait for nearly an hour , and we met GM Manisha there for flat availability , and we were shocked to see her indifferent attitude , she was very rude and arrogant which is very unbecoming of a GM in this service industry.If flats are not available there is way to express.Because of her attitude we are not able to buy our dream home.
    She is not fit for the GM post , we all friends are very much disapointed.

    We are hoping to get our dream home @ watermark project.

    ReplyDelete
  60. what is ongoing price per Sq/ft?I was told by Sales executive that they have increased the price from 3240 sq/ft. Is it worth that price?

    ReplyDelete
  61. I called one of the number given in their website and asked for the availability and price. The response was not very friendly. I was told that there are very few flats available. I requested them to share the details through email and gave them my email id. But no response. Very poor and unprofessional service.

    ReplyDelete
  62. I called them last month to get details for the project. Firstly nobody picks up the numbers given on their website. After long time i was able to talk to a person who was not willing to share any details. She just said we have very few flats left which we will launched at later stage. Are they going to add more flats to the existing scheme? or they are just trying to increase price by these old tricks? not very professional. The builder seems to be trying to milk as much profit as possible while the sarjapur road location is hot. I would say avoid this project and look somewhere else for better value.

  63. Dear Sir,
    I have no pending credit payment towards any credit card or any kind of loan from any bank, but when apply for a home loan from HDFC and Deutsche Bank, bank people told me that my name reflecting is in CIBIL bank and there is a pending towards credit payment of – Rs XXX which is a false entry reflecting in my name. They also told me it doesn't look genuine and rejected sanctioning the Home loan.
    It’s really disappointing and disgusting for no fault of mine.

  64. @Harsha,

    Contact the bank that declined a loan application on the basis of your poor credit score. Ask them for a clarification on the poor credit score and request them to provide the control number for your credit report. The bank will provide you with the control number of the credit report and also share the information on the credit report that is responsible for your poor credit score.

    Get in touch with CIBIL by calling their help desk numbers at 1800 – 224 / 245 or +91 22 6638 4600 / 2281 7788 provided on their Web site, http://www.cibil.com/.

    Thank you

  65. I am planning to book a 2BHK in SJR WATERMARK. Need your opinions on the builder etc...G

    ReplyDelete
  66. Better to stay away from this builder be it any form SJR Enterprise or SJR Primecorp or SJR XXX , he tests your patience by changing his promises or floor plan or construction strategy.

    Implement all one side rules in agreement like all builder does
    http://www.complaintsboard.com/complaints/sjr-watermark-c420656.html

    My friendly suggestion the rates are already high why you invest a property its not in mere completion or just started construction, friendly suggestion better to put same money some where its ready to finish/handover to customer.

    Good Luck

  67. you can go with the project....its very good project....i booked the flat there....

  68. BREEACH OF TRUST AND CONSUMER SENTIMENTS

    http://www.complaintsboard.com/complaints/breeach-of-trust-and-consumer-sentiments-c506395.html

    ReplyDelete
  69. Think again before investing in the builder SJR Primecorp especially their project SJR Watermark. Below is my experience:

    1. Two buildings of SJR Watermark are advertised as being lake facing. However, there is another building coming up between SJR Watermark and the lake. This is misleading information provided by SJR Primecorp.

    2. The sqft area for all 2 BHKs in SJR Watermark is 1102 sqft. When I went to buy a (actually two) 2 BHK, I was told that it is a corner 2 BHK and it is 1152 sqft so now I have to pay more + another Rs. 50 per sqft. So called 'Corner' flats are idential to non-corner flats. When SJR Primecorp was asked to justify how the extra 50 sqft was represented on the plan they had no answer. Again misleading information.

    3. Since I am overseas, my parents from Cochin called SJR Primecorp to check if they are working the NEXT day so that they could visit them. On positive confirmation, they booked tickets and traveled to Bangalore. SJR Primecorp then tells my parents - we decided yesterday evening that the office will be closed today! How unprofessional of SJR Primecorp!

    4. Two marketing people from SJR Primecorp did turn up. The car from SJR Primecorp was available to take my parents to the site but (Mr. Guruprasad) asked my parents to go by auto rickshaw to the site. SJR Primecorp - a poor builder that can't afford a car to take customers for a site! What a shame!

    5. Lastly, based on all of these issues, my parents asked to speak to the GM Residential. However they (Mr. Guruprasad) refused to give me / my parents her contact number. I can already see how any issues / complaints / requests that I would raise would fall on deaf ears.

    I highly rely on user reviews to make my decisions and I hope my review will help you all as well in making well informed decisions.

  70. The demand for 2BHK flats in Bangalore has gone up to 21% at the April-June 2012 quarter. At the month of Jan-Mar quarter, the demand for 2BHK apartments in Bangalore was at 5 %. However, accessibility continues to be at the vary of 2-3 percent all through in both quarters, highlight that there is a spot between the demand and supply ratio.
