Every floor of Tower A at Nirvana, on the Aundh-Baner Link Road in Baner, has two homes: a 4 BHK of 2,550 sq ft and a 4.5 BHK of 3,179 sq ft. Both have four bedrooms and two master suites, so the question is what the extra 629 sq ft and ₹1.30 crore buy. This guide compares them room by room, using the developer's floor plan.
In short: the 4 BHK (₹5.61 crore) has a 30 ft living and family area, a separate dining room and a 30 ft sit-out. The 4.5 BHK (₹6.91 crore) adds a separate 12'9" x 18'3" family area, a helper room with a bathroom, a jacuzzi in one master bathroom and a box room, with a 38 ft living and dining room. Per square foot, the 4.5 BHK is slightly cheaper.

What the extra ₹1.30 crore buys
- A second living space. The separate family area lets the 38 ft living and dining room stay formal while the family uses the lounge.
- Staff quarters. The helper room with its own bathroom sits beside the kitchen, which matters for households with live-in help.
- A larger kitchen. 11' x 18'3" against 11' x 14'6".
- Bathroom luxuries. A jacuzzi in the second master bathroom.
The 4 BHK has advantages of its own: a longer, 30 ft sit-out along the living room, a larger entrance lobby and a sit-out off the second master suite.
Which should you choose?
Choose the 4 BHK if
- your budget tops out around ₹5.6 crore;
- you prefer one large, open living and family area facing a 30 ft sit-out;
- you do not need a room for live-in staff.
Choose the 4.5 BHK if
- you are a joint or multi-generation family that needs a separate family lounge;
- you have live-in help;
- you want the lower price per square foot and the largest kitchen.
