Stop treating Chennai real estate like a single game. OMR, Oragadam, Perambur, and West Chennai are four completely different economies playing by entirely separate rules.
Here’s the breakdown:
• Perungudi vs. Navalur: 11k/sqft for proximity vs. 6-8.5k for yield. Same road, completely different risk.
• Oragadam: It’s an industrial powerhouse driven by auto and manufacturing, not IT hype.
• Perambur: The North Chennai bias kept it quiet, but the Purple Line changed the commute math—and the YoY jumps speak for themselves.
• Porur & Poonamallee: The transit speculation phase is over. Now it’s about finding the exact pockets where developer pricing hasn’t caught up to the operational metro.
Don’t buy based on the road name. Buy based on the game you’re actually playing.
