Keeranatham: the outer edge of the IT corridor
Keeranatham lies just beyond Chinnavedampatti and Saravanampatti on Coimbatore's north-eastern side. Colleges nearby, including Kumaraguru College of Technology, bring steady demand from tenants and families.
As land near Saravanampatti's IT parks has become scarce and expensive, developers have moved out to Keeranatham, where plots cost noticeably less.
Getting around, and the colleges nearby
Link roads connect Keeranatham to Saravanampatti and Chinnavedampatti, and on to Sathy Road for the city, so it works for IT staff, with a slightly longer commute.
Kumaraguru College of Technology and other colleges nearby add students and staff to the pool of tenants, alongside IT employees.
What's for sale
Mostly DTCP-approved plots, sold on being cheaper than Saravanampatti and Chinnavedampatti while still within reach of the IT parks.
Independent houses and small apartment buildings have picked up around the colleges, for staff and students staying long term rather than short stays.
| Property type | Who buys | Notes |

| DTCP residential plots | Investors looking for value | Confirm the approval number before you pay |
| Independent houses near the colleges | College staff, long-term tenants | Check utility connections and access roads |
