This premier township project will involve the development of both residential and commercial spaces. 'Shantigram' will be the only township in India to offer a golf course, a full-size cricket stadium with pavilions, an Olympic-size athletic track and football ground, Singh said.
The project will be completed in phases. In phase I the company is offering properties that include residential apartments in mid and high-end segments, with prices ranging from Rs 32 lakh to Rs 2.50 crore a unit.
'Shantigram' marks the beginning of the Ahmedabad-based Adani Group's foray of building similar townships across India, Singh said.
