June 26, 2025: Farmland is often seen as a slow, traditional asset – but Vibez Estates, a real estate firm, is changing that view. Based in Bangalore and founded in 2009, the company has created a model where agricultural land is professionally managed, income-generating, and legally secure. At the heart of its approach is a belief that rural entrepreneurship can offer real, sustainable returns for urban investors.

The story began with a single 13-acre coffee estate. Over time, Vibez Estates expanded into regions like Chikmagalur, Sakleshpur, and Chikkaballapur, offering smaller farmland plots to individuals looking for long-term value. These plots are not sold as empty land but as managed agricultural units. Every aspect – from soil testing and plantation to harvesting and upkeep – is handled by the company. This allows individuals with no background in farming to become landowners and earn from the land.

What sets Vibez apart is its dual-income model. On one hand, investors earn from the crops – coffee, pepper, pomegranate, fruit orchards, and even teak. On the other, many of these estates also offer a hospitality component. Farm villas and eco-retreats built on these plots are rented out, creating a second stream of income. This makes it possible to benefit from both agriculture and tourism, without having to manage either directly.

Transparency is a core part of Vibez Estates’ promise. Every investor gets access to an in-house ERP system that tracks the progress of their farmland. Regular updates, performance reports, and complete legal documentation help maintain trust and avoid many of the common issues associated with land ownership in India.

As of now, Vibez Estates has completed more than 16 projects and manages over 1,000 acres of land. The company has also built over 150 villas on its estates, often designed to reflect local architecture and Vaastu principles. One such example is Bilvadhara, a heritage-style riverside project that combines nature-friendly design with rental income potential.
The long-term outlook for crops like teak is promising, with projected returns in the range of 14 to 16 percent annually over a 15 to 20-year period. These figures, while not guaranteed, reflect the kind of returns that attract high-net-worth individuals, NRIs, and working professionals looking to diversify their portfolios with real assets.

Vibez Estates has received several awards over the years, including recognition for eco-friendly construction and responsible land development. But more importantly, it has helped bridge the gap between urban capital and rural opportunity. By making farmland accessible, manageable, and profitable, the company is encouraging a new kind of investment – one that supports local economies while offering steady returns.

As more people look for stability in uncertain financial markets, models like this offer a practical path forward. Vibez Estates shows that investing in agriculture doesn’t have to be complicated or risky. With the right systems in place, it can be a reliable, transparent, and future-ready option for people who want their money to work in more meaningful ways.

India, June 26, 2025 — Supreme Infrastructure India Ltd (SIIL), a leading EPC and infrastructure company, has secured a Rs 450 Crore turnkey construction contract for the development of a PAP (Project Affected Persons) housing complex in Mumbai’s Powai area. The project is part of a broader redevelopment initiative being undertaken by BSS Property Ventures and Rajeshwar Property Ventures — entities majority-owned by funds managed by Brookfield.

The Phase 1 scope includes the construction of residential flats with associated infrastructure and MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing) works, across a built-up area of approximately 1.6 million square feet. Once completed, the PAP building will be handed over to the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA). The project timeline is 36 months.

This residential development forms a key part of a larger 6-acre urban renewal plan, with Phase 1 targeting 2.0 million sq. ft. of development. Brookfield’s investment and operational involvement through the developer entities reflect a long-term commitment to the area, with Phase 2 slated to include 2.5 million sq. ft. of commercial and retail space.

With this win, SIIL’s total order book rises to Rs 1,725 Crores, which includes major projects from clients such as Larsen & Toubro (L&T). The addition further strengthens SIIL’s presence in high-value, urban infrastructure delivery.

Pankaj Sharma, Director— Supreme Infrastructure India Ltd, said:
“We’re proud to be part of this significant redevelopment in Powai, particularly one anchored by a global investment group like Brookfield. This project aligns well with our focus on technically demanding, large-scale builds in urban environments. The trust placed in us reflects our execution strength and our ability to meet delivery milestones on complex projects. As Mumbai continues to evolve, we’re committed to supporting inclusive and forward-looking infrastructure that serves the city’s future.”

A formal disclosure regarding this order has been filed with the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE).
