Kokapet
South India’s tallest residential building (skyscraper) , SAS Crown, is under-construction in the Golden Mile Layout at Kokapet. The Outer Ring Road passes through the village. This is the first ultra-luxury apartment in Hyderabad where one floor is dedicated for a single apartment. In October 2017, the Supreme Court of India dismissed the claim of K.S.B. Ali and others, who claim to be the legal heirs of Nawab Nusarath Jung 1, in regard to prestigious Golden Mile Project at Kokapet. The Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority (then known as HUDA), had auctioned 70 acres of land in Kokapet village, Rajendranagar mandal, in July 2006. A total of 168 acres were put up for auction, which fetched ₹ 1,775 crore for the Authority, including a bid amount of Rs 14.5 crore per acre for a five-acre plot. GAR & Sons builders has built IT park where several companies have been leased office space.
In 2017, the two member bench of Supreme Court of India comprising Justice AK Sikri and Justice Ashok Bhushan dismissed this plea while upholding the division bench order of the High Court that HMDA has ownership rights in of 638 acres of land in Kokapet. The high court had declared that the lower court had no power to confer rights over jagir lands except to the extent of cash grants and vindicated the stand of the state government in declaring the 1,635 acres at Kokapet (Asadnagar) as government land under the Sarf-e-Khas (Merger) Regulation.
