Current construction status
As of 12 May 2026, Sobha OneWorld Phase 1 is in its pre-launch / Expression of Interest (EOI) phase. Karnataka RERA registration was issued on 8 May 2026 (PRM/KA/RERA/1250/304/PR/080526/008634), which clears the project to formally accept bookings under the registered phase.
No public ground-level construction progress is reported as the registered phase begins. Site preparation, excavation and basement work are the next typical milestones for a project of this scale (3 basements + 2 parking levels + 45 to 46 typical floors per wing).
Expected Phase 1 milestones
| Stage | Indicative period | What to expect |
|---|---|---|
| RERA registration | 8 May 2026 (done) | Registered phase, sanctioned plan and committed completion date on file. |
| Site preparation and excavation | 2026 (H2) | Boundary works, soil testing, dewatering and basement excavation for the 14 wings. |
| Basement and podium | 2026 - 2027 | 3 basement levels plus ground-floor parking and first-floor parking decks. |
| Tower structure | 2027 - 2029 | Reinforced concrete frame across 14 wings; 45 to 46 typical floors each. |
| Facade, MEP and finishing | 2029 - 2030 | External cladding, MEP rough-ins and apartment finishing in completed wings. |
| Snagging and OC | 2030 | Occupancy Certificate, statutory clearances, services commissioning. |
| Possession (Phase 1) | December 2030 onwards | Handover begins with priority wings; later wings follow over subsequent quarters. |
The above is a planning indicative schedule based on the RERA-committed completion target. The exact sequence depends on phasing decisions taken by Sobha Limited, statutory approvals, weather, and any modifications to the sanctioned plan.
How to track construction progress
Once the project breaks ground, Karnataka RERA requires the promoter to file quarterly progress reports (QPRs) on the official portal. These reports include:
- Percentage completion of each tower or wing.
- Common areas, internal roads, sewage treatment plant (STP), water systems and external infrastructure progress.
- Financial flows in and out of the registered project bank account.
- Any extensions, amendments or compounding orders, if filed.
Buyers should bookmark the live RERA listing and check the QPRs at least once per quarter. For tower-specific updates (your wing, your floor, your view), ask Sobha's CRM team for a written progress note tied to the agreed payment milestones in your construction-linked payment plan.
Buyer checks during construction
- Confirm that every payment milestone is linked to verifiable on-site progress (not just an invoice date).
- Insist on a tower- and wing-specific completion timeline in writing.
- Verify that 70% of your payments are flowing into the registered project bank account.
- Visit the site once a year (or assign a representative) to check progress against the QPR.
- Read the QPR closely for changes in completion date, scope, or amenities; treat any reduction as a discussion point with the developer.
Sobha OneWorld Construction Status - Frequently Asked Questions
What is the current construction status of Sobha OneWorld?
As of 12 May 2026, Sobha OneWorld Phase 1 is in its pre-launch / Expression of Interest (EOI) phase. Karnataka RERA registration was issued on 8 May 2026 under PRM/KA/RERA/1250/304/PR/080526/008634, clearing the project to formally accept bookings under the registered phase.
What construction milestones are expected next?
The next typical milestones are site preparation, soil testing, dewatering, and basement excavation across the 14 wings through the second half of 2026. Basement and podium works (3 basements plus ground-floor and first-floor parking) are expected through 2026–2027 before tower structures rise from 2027 onwards.
When will tower structure work begin at Sobha OneWorld?
Reinforced concrete frame work for the 14 wings is expected to run from 2027 to 2029, covering 45 typical floors for Wings 3 to 8 and 46 typical floors for Wings 1, 2, and 9 to 14. Facade, MEP rough-ins, and apartment finishing then run through 2029–2030 ahead of OC and snagging.
How can I track Sobha OneWorld construction progress?
Karnataka RERA requires the promoter to file Quarterly Progress Reports (QPRs) on the official portal once the project breaks ground. QPRs cover percentage completion of each wing, common areas, internal roads, STP, water systems, financial flows into the registered project account, and any extensions or amendments.
What construction checks should Sobha OneWorld buyers run?
Confirm that every payment milestone is linked to verifiable on-site progress, not just an invoice date. Insist on a wing-specific completion timeline in writing and verify that 70% of payments are flowing into the registered project bank account. Visit the site at least once a year to compare ground conditions against the latest Karnataka RERA QPR.
When is Phase 1 expected to be handed over?
Phase 1 possession targets December 2030 onwards under the current RERA filing. Handover typically begins with priority wings after OC clearance, with later wings following over subsequent quarters; treat the date as the registered planning baseline rather than a guaranteed move-in day.
