Senior housing operator Vedaanta Senior Living has announced plans to invest approximately ₹800 croreover the next three years to expand its footprint across South India, following a 60% growth in revenue in FY26.
The company currently operates 11 senior living communities housing around 1,000 families and aims to expand to 24 active communities with capacity for 2,500 families by 2029. The expansion will be concentrated across key markets in Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka, Telangana and Andhra Pradesh.
Of the planned investment, around ₹450 crore will be deployed in Tamil Nadu and ₹200 crore in Kerala, with the remainder allocated to Karnataka, Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. New projects are planned in cities including Bengaluru, Mysuru, Hyderabad, Tirupati, Coimbatore, Madurai, Kochi and Thiruvananthapuram.
The expansion follows a strong FY26 performance, during which the company reported a 25% increase in occupied units and added inventory valued at approximately ₹165 crore.
Commenting on the growth, Rahul Sabharwal, Co-founder and Director, Vedaanta Senior Living, said the sector is witnessing increasing acceptance as demand shifts from traditional retirement housing to professionally managed communities supported by healthcare, services and care infrastructure.
Vedaanta differentiates itself through a service-led model, developing and operating its own communities while also partnering with developers to manage senior living projects. The company emphasises low-density developments with open spaces, wellness amenities and community engagement rather than maximising residential density.
As part of its next growth phase, the company is also entering the assisted living segment in Bengaluru and Coimbatore to cater to seniors requiring higher levels of care. Its portfolio additionally includes The Together Community in Hosur, an integrated residential development designed for adults with autism and their ageing parents.
With organised senior living still accounting for only a small share of India’s ageing population despite annual industry growth of around 26%, Vedaanta believes significant opportunities remain for expansion. The company is also exploring external funding options to support its growth and technology investments as it scales operations across South India.
