Prestige Group eyes Delhi's prime property

Prestige Group, a prominent player in the Indian real estate sector, is reportedly in advanced discussions to acquire a prime property located in the prestigious Lutyens' Delhi area. The property in question is currently owned by TDI Infratech, and it carries a market valuation ranging from Rs 3.25 to Rs 3.50 billion. It is estimated that the property holds substantial revenue potential, expected to be in the vicinity of Rs 7 billion.

Experts in the field anticipate that Prestige Group may utilise this prime location to develop eight to nine boutique apartments, which would mark its debut in Delhi's residential real estate market. This potential move aligns with Prestige Group's strategic expansion plans to diversify its residential portfolio.

While discussions are in an advanced stage, the company is believed to have already signed a term sheet with the property's current owner. However, before finalising the agreement, Prestige Group is diligently conducting legal due diligence to ensure a smooth and compliant transition. It's worth noting that this area of Lutyens' Delhi does allow for some high-rise developments, making it an attractive prospect for Prestige Group.

In terms of the financial aspects of the deal, the property carries an outstanding loan of approximately Rs 2.25 billion. As part of the arrangement, Prestige Group is expected to clear this existing loan, facilitating a seamless transfer of ownership and development rights.

A source familiar with the matter stated, "The joint development will see Prestige invest the money in the construction of a boutique luxury residential development in Lutyens’ Delhi."

However, both Prestige Group and TDI Infratech have refrained from commenting on the specifics of the deal, highlighting the sensitivity and confidentiality of ongoing negotiations.

Prestige Group has been actively expanding its footprint in the Indian real estate market, with an upcoming 2.2 million-square-foot residential project in Noida Sector 150. Furthermore, the company is actively seeking land parcels across Delhi and Gurgaon to further enhance its residential presence.

Known for its focus on larger township projects, Prestige Group has established a substantial presence in luxury real estate segments, with properties typically priced above Rs 70 million. The company boasts an impressive track record, having completed 285 projects encompassing a developable area of 170 million square feet, with 54 ongoing projects across different segments and a total developable area of 75 million square feet.

Looking ahead, Prestige Group has ambitious plans, with 44 projects spanning 99 million square feet in the pipeline. The company also maintains a significant land bank comprising around 680 acres as of July, and it operates in 13 cities, solidifying its position as a major player in the Indian real estate market.

This potential acquisition of prime property in Lutyens' Delhi follows a trend in which notable developers are seeking opportunities in such prestigious locations. Earlier, Godrej Properties had entered into a similar joint venture agreement with TDI Infratech to develop an ultra-luxury residential project on Shaheed Bhagat Singh Marg, near Connaught Place, one of central Delhi's prime locations. TDI Group, the land parcel's owner, had secured approval for a nine-story tower and envisioned a project comprising 46 ultra-luxury apartments.
