In a landmark collaboration poised to reshape the hospitality and real estate sectors, Della Group has announced a strategic partnership with Hiranandani Developers and Krisala Developers to develop India’s first racecourse-themed luxury township in North Hinjewadi, Pune. Spanning 40 acres of a larger 105-acre master plan, this venture promises to be more than a township—it is set to become a destination.
This unique alliance brings together three giants with complementary strengths:
Della Group, helmed by visionary Jimmy Mistry, is renowned for innovation in luxury hospitality and adventure experiences.
Hiranandani Developers, a name synonymous with excellence in real estate.
Krisala Developers, known for timely delivery and quality housing in Pune.
Together, they are building not just homes but a lifestyle ecosystem—where ultra-luxury, adventure, wellness, and business converge seamlessly.
At the heart of this project lies a full-scale racecourse and international polo club, setting the tone for the entire township. Surrounding this dynamic core are:
128 private villa plots
112 ultra-luxury resort residences
A 300-key five-star luxury resort
Nine wedding venues and 12 corporate event spaces
A world-class adventure park, golf course, and wellness retreat
This multi-use development is the first of its kind in India, blending residential, hospitality, and recreational formats into a unified, themed living experience.
With an estimated investment of ₹500 crore in its initial phase and projected revenues of ₹1,100 crore, the project uses a development management model. Della Group will earn a 15% topline fee, a bold move that aligns brand involvement with performance.
This model is transformational—bringing professional hospitality expertise into township development. It signals a new era where hospitality design principles guide real estate planning.
The township is already in advanced planning stages, with land acquisition complete and architectural designs underway. The first phase launches within three months, with possession of resort and villa plots by early next year, and the remainder—including private residences—by 2026.
Architecturally, the design will blend contemporary, organic, and British colonial aesthetics—creating a timeless, resort-style environment rarely seen in Indian housing developments.
What makes this venture extraordinary isn’t just its scale—it’s the merging of luxury hospitality with daily life. Residents won’t just live in homes—they’ll live within a curated, five-star experience. Every villa, every apartment, and every corner of the township is a touchpoint for hospitality-led living.
This township is a case study in convergence:
Hospitality meets real estate
Adventure meets wellness
Design meets experience
It underscores a broader shift: today's guests no longer want isolated stays—they want integrated, immersive environments. As hospitality players venture into real estate and vice versa, this township becomes a blueprint for future developments across India and beyond.
This project reimagines the way we live, celebrate, and unwind. As hospitality brands begin to shape the cities of tomorrow, the lines between guest, resident, and experience-blazer will blur. And if this partnership is any indication, the future is thrillingly bold.

A minor fire broke out at the Hyatt Regency Chennai, located in Teynampet, during the early hours of Tuesday, August 5. The incident prompted an immediate response from fire and rescue teams, and all hotel guests were safely evacuated. No injuries or casualties were reported.
According to authorities, the fire originated in the pantry storage area on the ninth floor at approximately 12:30 a.m.. Within minutes, personnel from the nearby Teynampet Fire and Rescue Services station arrived at the site and brought the situation under control in under an hour.
As thick smoke began to spread across the upper floors, the hotel administration acted promptly to evacuate all guests to the ground floor as a precautionary measure. Emergency protocols were executed efficiently, with support from the Teynampet Police and senior officials who quickly arrived to oversee the situation.
The rapid coordination between the hotel team and city responders helped ensure that no one was harmed. A spokesperson for the Chennai City Police confirmed the fire was minor in scale but required immediate containment due to the risk of smoke inhalation.
The Hyatt Regency was also hosting the Quantbox Chennai Grandmasters chess tournament at the time of the incident. In light of the situation, the organizers announced a postponement of the tournament to Thursday, August 7, out of an abundance of caution for player and guest safety.
While an official statement from the hotel is awaited, the incident highlights the importance of active fire safety measures and emergency preparedness in the hospitality sector. The swift and professional response by the Hyatt Regency team, combined with the timely intervention by Chennai’s Fire and Rescue Services, prevented a potentially dangerous situation from escalating.
This event serves as a crucial reminder for hoteliers across India to:
Conduct routine fire audits and system checks
Train staff in emergency evacuation protocols
Maintain open lines of communication with local emergency services
Ensure guest safety and business continuity in the event of emergencies
HospitalityNews commends the proactive efforts of the Hyatt Regency Chennai and emergency responders. Their commitment to safety reflects the resilience and responsibility that modern hospitality demands.
