Can I book a Purva apartment online?

Yes. In 2026, you can use the Puravankara website to select a unit, upload KYC papers, and pay the token amount from anywhere in the world.

What is the "Expression of Interest" (EOI)?

This usually happens before a new project officially launches. By paying an EOI amount (e.g., ₹1 Lakh), you get "first pick" of the units and special launch prices.

Is the booking amount refundable?

If you cancel before signing the Agreement to Sell, most builders refund the amount after a small processing fee. Always check the specific "Cancellation Policy" in your booking form.

When do I pay for Stamp Duty and Registration?

These are paid at the very end, just before you take possession of the home. They are not part of the payment plan for the house itself.

Does Puravankara help with the home loan?

Yes. They have a dedicated team that works with banks to help you get the best interest rates and handle the paperwork.

What is TDS in property buying?

If your home costs more than ₹50 Lakhs, you must deduct 1% TDS from each payment to the builder and pay it to the government. Purva's team will guide you on how to do this.

Can I change my unit after booking?

Yes, but it depends on what is available. There might be a small administrative fee to transfer your booking to a different unit.

What happens if the project is delayed?

Under RERA, if a project is delayed beyond the date in your agreement, the builder must pay you interest for every month of delay.

What is the benefit of the "Construction-Linked Plan"?

It keeps your money safe. You only pay for what has been built. If construction stops, your payments stop too.

Step-by-Step Guide to the Booking and Registration Process for Purva Projects

Buying a home is more than just picking a building. It is a journey with several legal and financial milestones. In the past, this process involved a lot of physical paperwork and long wait times. However, in 2026, the process for a Puravankara project like Purva Northern Lights or Purva Aerocity- has been completely transformed.

Today, the journey is designed to be transparent, fast, and digital-friendly. Puravankara uses a "digital-first" approach. This means you can track every step of your purchase from your phone or laptop. Whether you are a first-time buyer looking for your dream home or an experienced investor looking for growth in North Bangalore, the modern process ensures your path to homeownership is smooth and secure.

What has changed in 2026?

Virtual Transparency: You no longer have to guess how your home will look. With 3D "digital twins" and drone-captured site updates, you can see the exact progress of your tower in real-time.
Paperless Booking: Most of the initial steps, from selecting a floor to paying the token amount, happen through a secure online portal.
RERA Integration: Every milestone is linked to the Karnataka RERA guidelines. This ensures that the builder's promises are legally protected and easy for you to verify.
Smart Assistance: Dedicated "Purva Care" experts use AI tools to help you manage your documents and bank loans, making the legal side of buying a home much less stressful.

Following this step-by-step guide will help one navigate these digital tools. It will show you how to move from a simple enquiry to holding the keys to your new home with total confidence.

Phase 1: The Booking Process (Reserving Your Home)

The booking phase is where you choose your specific unit and officially "block" it so no one else can buy it.

Step 1: Initial Enquiry and Selection

The process begins with your interest. You can visit the sales office at the project site (e.g., KIADB Aerospace Park) or browse online.

Virtual Tour: In 2026, you can take 3D walkthroughs of the model apartments.
Unit Selection: You will choose your tower, floor, and unit number (e.g., a 3 BHK on the 15th floor).
Cost Sheet: Ask for the official cost sheet. This document lists the total price, including the base rate, floor rise, parking, and amenities.

Step 2: The Booking Amount (Token)

To reserve the unit, you must pay a "Booking Amount" or "Token."

How much? Usually, this is a fixed amount (e.g., ₹1 Lakh to ₹5 Lakhs) or 10% of the total cost.
Payment Mode: You can make payments via credit card, net banking, or a cheque.
Blocking: Once the payment is made, the unit is "blocked" in your name for a few days while you prepare your documents.

Step 3: Submission of KYC Documents

You must provide proof of your identity to the Puravankara team. In 2026, this is mostly done through a digital portal.

PAN Card: Mandatory for all financial transactions.
Aadhaar Card: For identity and address verification.
Photographs: Two passport-sized photos.
Allotment Letter: Once your documents are checked, Purva will issue an Allotment Letter. This is your first official proof that the home is reserved for you.

Why This is Better:
No Lost Papers: Your documents are stored in an encrypted "Digital Vault." They cannot be lost or misplaced like physical files.
Speed: What used to take two weeks now takes less than 30 minutes.
NRI Friendly: If you are living abroad, you can complete your entire KYC without flying to India.

Phase 2: The Agreement (The Legal Commitment)

This phase moves your booking from a "reservation" to a "legal contract."

Step 4: Agreement to Sell (ATS)

Within 15–30 days of booking, you will sign the Agreement to Sell. This is a vital document under RERA guidelines.

What it says- It lists the final price, the floor plan, the possession date (e.g., Dec 2029), and the payment schedule.
Legal Check- You can have a lawyer review this draft to ensure everything matches what the sales team promised.

Step 5: Loan Approval and Funding

If you are taking a home loan, this is the time to finalize it.

Pre-Approved Projects: Most banks trust the Puravankara brand. This makes getting a loan for a project like Purva Northern Lights much faster.
Bank Verification: The bank will check the project's RERA status and your income papers. Once approved, they will pay the builder directly as per the construction stages.

Phase 3: Construction-Linked Payments

In 2026, most buyers will use the Construction-Linked Plan (CLP). This is the safest way to pay for an upcoming home.

Step 6: Paying in Stages

Instead of paying everything at once, you pay as the building grows.

10% Booking: Already paid.
10% at Foundation: Paid when the "base" of the building is ready.
10% per Slab: As each floor is cast, the bank releases a small portion of the loan.
Finishings: The final payments happen when tiling, painting, and plumbing are done.

Phase 4: Possession and Registration (The Final Step)

This is the most exciting part—getting your keys and becoming the legal owner.

Step 7: The Occupancy Certificate (OC)

Before you move in, Puravankara must receive the Occupancy Certificate from the local government. This proves the building is safe to live in and has all basic needs like water and power.

Step 8: Final Payment and Handover

Final Settlement: You pay the remaining 5% or 10% of the cost.
Maintenance Deposit: You will also pay a one-time "Corpus Fund" or advance maintenance fee to keep the society running.
Key Handover: You receive the keys, your "Welcome Kit," and the manual for your BluNex Smart Home features.

Step 9: Registration of the Sale Deed

The final legal step is registering the Sale Deed at the Sub-Registrar's office.

Stamp Duty: In Karnataka, this is usually 5% of the property value.
Registration Fee: Currently 2% of the property value.
The Visit: You and a representative from Puravankara visit the local office (e.g., near Bagalur) to sign the papers and give your thumbprints.
Ownership: Once signed, you are the Legal Owner in the government records.
