Lanco Group is developing a township in Hyderabad over a 20 million sq ft area entailing an investment of Rs 6,500 crore.

The HUDA is developing eight-lane access-controlled expressway in the city. This proposed expressway is a part if the Outer Ring Road (ORR) project and would be taken up in three phases.

Also, Philippines-based real estate firm Ayala Corporation is foraying into Hyderabad's real estate. The realty firm has lined up $100 million to invest in the city in the next two years. Ayala is looking for a Hyderabad-based property firm to venture into the property segment.

Deutsche Bank's associate RREEF Alternative Investments has taken 60% stake in a real estate project at Hyderabad. This project is being developed by Nagarjuna Construction Co. and is estimated to cost around $ 400 million. The project involves development of five million sq ft of office, residential, retail and hospitality space.
