Srijan Realty, one of the most reputable housing developers in East India, has announced the launch of the Orizon project. This residential complex comprises 702 housing units and is situated on an 8.3-acre plot along the southern EM Bypass in Jagaddala, South Kolkata.
The project launch comes against the backdrop of a decade-long transformation of this area from a peripheral suburb into one of the city's most sought-after residential zones. This transformation is supported by the development of metro and suburban railway lines, access to both directions of the EM Bypass, and the formation of an ecosystem that includes schools, hospitals, and shopping centers.
Orizon is located on BC Roy Road in Jagaddala. It has two access points to the southern EM Bypass, located approximately 400 and 750 meters apart. The complex consists of six high-rise towers, ranging from 17 to 23 floors, offering 702 three-bedroom apartments ranging from 1208 to 1650 square feet.
During the development, about 80% of the 8.3-acre site was preserved, and 85% including landscape design at the podium level, which is unusually low density for such a large project near the city.
Infrastructure proximity includes the Shahid Khudiram metro station, located about a 14-minute drive away, and the Sonarpur railway station, which is about a 15-minute drive away. Additionally, Spencer’s stores, Wood Square Mall, and Southwinds Galleria are accessible within a six-minute drive.
The design philosophy of Orizon is named after the word 'horizon' and is based on the idea that space, light, and unobstructed views are becoming increasingly scarce commodities in a city that has become denser over the last two decades.
The residences are equipped with terrace-style balconies and open balconies designed to maximize natural light and cross-ventilation. The project's golden facade, visible from the EM Bypass, is conceived as a visual landmark along this corridor.
Despite convenient access to both directions of the EM Bypass and proximity to the commercial hubs of South Kolkata, the developer has planned the development as a self-sufficient green enclave, isolated from typical traffic congestion associated with high-density urban corridors.
Within a 20-minute radius are schools such as BDM International and Narayana, as well as medical facilities, including the future campuses of Apollo Hospital, Peerless Hospital, and RN Tagore Hospital.
At the center of the complex is a clubhouse spanning approximately 33,000 square feet, featuring an infinity pool, jacuzzi, and a dedicated children's pool. There is also a 21,000 square foot podium-level garden that serves as the base for a sports arena with facilities for tennis, basketball, pickleball, and badminton.
Amenities include a gym, yoga and meditation studio, squat court, coworking space, home theater, library, and a dedicated senior living area. The developer emphasizes that these amenities are designed to serve all age groups within one community, not just a narrow target audience.
A key feature of Orizon is its design adhering to the principle of unimpeded access. It includes wheelchair ramps, appropriately sized elevators for wheelchairs, Braille and voice-controlled elevator buttons, accessible restrooms, and designated parking spaces in all common areas.
Srijan Realty presents this not as meeting minimum requirements, but as a forward-thinking response to multi-generational households in India, where aging parents, members of families with disabilities, and young children increasingly live together and require equal, independent access to common spaces.
Orizon is pre-certified under the IGBC Platinum standard, the highest green building category in India. Its features include rainwater harvesting, use of solar energy for common areas, low-flow plumbing fixtures, energy-efficient LED lighting, organic waste management, and electric vehicle charging infrastructure.
Buildings meeting this standard typically achieve 20–30% energy savings and 30–50% water savings compared to traditional construction.
For over two decades, Srijan Realty has been considered one of the most respected real estate developers in East India, boasting a portfolio of residential complexes, integrated townships, commercial properties, and business projects in Kolkata and beyond.
Comments from Dinesh Agarwal
Dinesh Agarwal, Director of Srijan Realty, stated that Orizon reflects the company's vision of how Kolkata residents want to live today. He noted: 'Homebuyers are no longer forced to choose between space and connectivity, or between design and responsibility—they expect all of this together. The Southern EM Bypass has ceased to be just a developing corridor—it is now one of the defining drivers of South Kolkata's growth, and we have been part of this story for over ten years.'
Agarwal added that Srijan Realty built Orizon as 'a community first, planned around low-density living, open space, and lifestyle infrastructure that, in his view, will retain its value far beyond the next market cycle, with inclusivity and sustainability embedded in its foundation, rather than added on later.'
The company continues to adhere to the philosophy that 'great homes are built on trust,' focusing on design quality, customer-centric innovation, and long-term community building.
