Austin Aurus Wakad review: what is good, what to check, who it suits
Disclosure: this website is run by an authorised channel partner for the project. We have tried to write the review we would want to read as buyers, including the points you should verify yourself.
The short version
Austin Aurus Wakad is a low-density, premium-priced project: two towers, four residences to a floor, 3 & 4 BHK homes from ₹1.99 Cr*, and a podium clubhouse built around a 50-metre pool. It is registered with MahaRERA (PM1260002601438) and scheduled for possession in December 2028. It suits a buyer who is paying for privacy and space; it is not the project for someone chasing the lowest rate per square foot in Wakad.
What stands out
- Four residences per floor. Most of the benefit of a premium tower is who you share a lift lobby with, and here it is three other homes.
- A 50-metre Olympic-length pool on the podium, with a kids’ pool, pool deck and party area beside it — unusual at this scale.
- IGBC Gold certification for sustainable design.
- Deck balconies that are part of the living room rather than an afterthought: 33'5" wide in the 4 BHK and 20'8" in the 3 BHK Type A.
- A master suite with a walk-in wardrobe and its own balcony in every layout.
- Segregated residential access, a statement entrance boulevard and a grand entrance lobby.
What to check before you book
- It is under construction. Possession is scheduled for December 2028; confirm the date registered with MahaRERA and read the delay clause in the agreement.
- Areas are quoted as total carpet, which includes balcony and utility. Ask for the RERA carpet area of the exact flat and compare on that. The price and floor plan guide has both figures for each layout.
- The renders are artistic impressions. What you are buying is the specification in the agreement, so read that list rather than the pictures.
- The developer’s drive times are estimates — 15–20 minutes to Hinjewadi Phase 1, for example. Drive the route at your own commute hour.
- The larger 3 BHK sits only on refuge floors, so choice of floor is limited for that size.
- Get the full costing sheet, not just the base price, before comparing with another project.
Amenities
The amenities are split across two levels. The podium carries the pool, gymnasium, yoga and meditation zone, walking track, indoor games zone, business centre, lounge, toddlers’ play area, creche and senior citizens’ sit-outs. At ground level there is a clubhouse with a multipurpose hall, a party lawn, a kids’ play area, a temple and a landscaped garden.
Specifications
- Earthquake-resistant RCC framed structure with MIVAN / conventional hybrid walls
- GVT tile flooring in living, dining and bedrooms
- Veneer-finish main door with digital lock; video door phone
- System sliding windows; balconies with glass railings
- Premium CP and sanitary fittings; glass shower enclosure in the master bath
- AC point provision in the living room and every bedroom
Location
The project is on Mankar Chowk Road, Kaspate Wasti, a couple of minutes from Mankar Chowk and 2–5 minutes from the Aundh–Ravet Road. Daily needs are close: DMart, Westside and Croma are about 3 minutes away and several schools about 5. The full picture is in our Austin Aurus Wakad location guide.
The developer
Austin Aurus is by Austin Realty, under its luxury vertical Austin Reserve. The developer states its record as 19+ years in the business, 21+ lac sq.ft. delivered, 7+ prime locations, 2,600+ happy customers. As with any developer, look at a completed project in person and check its MahaRERA history before you commit.
Who it suits
- End-users upgrading to a larger 3 or 4 BHK who value a quiet floor and a real balcony
- Families working along the Hinjewadi–Baner–Aundh axis who want an established suburb around them
- Buyers who will use the amenities — the pool and podium are a large part of what you pay for
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers who need to move in before late 2028
- Buyers whose budget is below the ₹2 Cr mark
- Investors looking purely for the lowest entry price in Wakad — see why people invest in Wakad for how to think about that
