Piramal Realty, the real estate arm of Ajay Piramal-owned Piramal Group, plans to invest Rs 16,000 crore in development of real estate projects and acquisition of land, over the next 4 years.
Anand Piramal, executive director, Piramal Group told FE that while the company already has a roughly 9 million square feet of residential projects pipeline to be executed till 2020, the company is open to acquiring fresh parcels of land and distressed assets.
The company is also in the midst of developing an office project in Kurla, near Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC) ad-measuring 2.5 million square feet.
The company launched a luxury project at Byculla called Piramal Aranya, which will entail an investment of R4,300 crore over the lifecycle of the project.
The sea-facing 70-storey high rise residential project will be spread across 7 acres and is in close proximity to the 60 acre botanical gardens on the west.
In 2015, Goldman Sachs and Waurburg Pincus had invested a total of $434 million in Piramal Realty, giving the company a strong bandwidth to invest in real estate projects.
Piramal said that the company is looking to increase its commerical portfolio as well in the coming years. “As of now we just have one project, but going forward we would like to have a combination of both residential and commercial real estate.
With the expectation of 7%-8% growth in the Indian economy, the focus on commercial real estate will come back and we would like to have a healthy mix of both segments”.
