Serene Communities enters Hyderabad with ₹400 crore senior living projects in partnership with Prathima Group

Serene Communities by Columbia Pacific, India’s largest senior living operator, has forayed into Telangana through a strategic partnership with Hyderabad-based Prathima Group to develop two senior living projects in the city. The collaboration, representing a combined investment of ₹400 crore, marks Serene Communities’ formal foray into Hyderabad’s senior housing market.

The first project under this partnership, Serene BILVANI One, has received RERA approval and is being launched in Shankarpally — one of Hyderabad’s emerging low-density residential corridors. Developed by Sri Bilvani Homes LLP under license from Prathima Group and designed by Clark Lloyd Architects, the project will comprise 265 residences in 2- and 3-BHK configurations ranging from 1,025 to 1,700 sq. ft., priced from ₹60 lakh onwards.

The RERA-approved project (TS RERA No. P02400007448) is designed with senior-friendly features and accessibility in mind. It includes a health and wellness centre with clinical oversight by KITES Senior Care and preventive wellness technology support through SeniorShield, integrating medical and digital care into daily living.


“We’re bringing a senior living community that unites independent living, clinical care, and connected wellness technology into one integrated experience,” said Rajagopal G., Co-Founder, Director & Group CEO, Serene Communities by Columbia Pacific. “We’re pleased to partner with Prathima Group, whose development expertise and trust align with our mission to redefine senior living in India.”

A.B.V.S. Prakash Rao, Director, Prathima Group, said, “At Prathima Group, we have always focused on quality and reliability. Partnering with Serene Communities allows us to bring a specialized senior living concept to Hyderabad, backed by both our brands’ commitment to excellence.”

Located within Shankarpally’s green zone, the project offers access to Outer Ring Road, Telapur, and HITEC City.

Serene Communities by Columbia Pacific — part of LifeBridge Group, backed by Manipal Education & Medical Group (MEMG) and Columbia Pacific Management, Seattle — currently operates 10 senior living communities across India, managing over 1,700 residential units and serving about 2,400 seniors. The company has 13 ongoing projects across Bengaluru, Chennai, Mysuru, Cochin, Pune, and now Hyderabad.
