Dubai's Emaar Engages in Stake Sale Talks with Indian Groups, Including Adani

Dubai's Emaar Engages in Stake Sale Talks with Indian Groups, Including Adani

Emaar Properties aims to divest stake in its Indian operations as part of strategic business realignment amid growing market opportunities.
Dubai-based Emaar Properties, renowned for iconic projects such as the Burj Khalifa, announced on Thursday that it is engaged in negotiations with several Indian consortiums, including the Adani Group, regarding the sale of a stake in its Indian subsidiary.

Emaar, Dubai’s largest publicly traded real estate enterprise, has been a prominent player in the Indian real estate market since its entry in 2005. The company has developed an extensive portfolio of both residential and commercial properties in key Indian cities including Gurugram, Mohali, Lucknow, Jaipur, and Indore.

According to a company statement, the exact valuation and terms of the anticipated sale have not yet been determined.

This remark follows media reports suggesting that Adani Realty, the real estate division of Gautam Adani’s Adani Enterprise, is in advanced discussions to purchase a substantial share of Emaar India.

While Emaar did not confirm these claims, reports suggest that the prospective agreement could involve a majority acquisition stake, potentially ranging between 70% and 100%, valued at approximately INR 40 to 50 billion (around USD 578 million or AED 2.12 billion).

The strategic move aligns with Emaar’s broader agenda to streamline its operations and leverage lucrative opportunities within the growing Indian real estate sector - a market characterized by rapid urbanization and an increasing demand for housing and commercial spaces.

Emaar operates its Indian ventures under Emaar India and has established a significant presence in the nation’s vibrant property sector over two decades.

The company’s developments have been instrumental in transforming urban landscapes across the nation.

The ongoing discussions reflect a shifting dynamic in the Indian real estate market, where global investors are increasingly seeking partnerships and collaborations to capitalize on evolving business opportunities.

At a time when Dubai’s residential property market is experiencing a robust 31% sales uplift in its second half, Emaar’s recalibration of its Indian portfolio underscores its intent to optimize resource allocations across its diverse geographical interests.

As Emaar awaits the outcomes of these negotiations, stakeholders continue to monitor developments closely.

This potential sale could mark a significant milestone in India-UAE business collaborations, particularly within the burgeoning real estate industry.
