Anurang Jain, the Managing Director of Endurance Technologies, has made headlines with his recent purchase of a luxurious bungalow for ₹130 crore, located on the prestigious Kautilya Marg in New Delhi. The property spans an impressive 1,350 square yards, further cementing its status as one of the most expensive residential deals in the capital city. Documents accessed from CRE Matrix, a real estate data analytics firm, reveal that Jain paid a stamp duty of ₹8.32 crore for the transaction, making it one of the highest-value residential property purchases in Delhi.
Endurance Technologies, one of India’s largest auto component manufacturers, has been a significant player in the industry for years. This move comes amid a growing trend of high-net-worth individuals, including business owners and C-suite professionals, investing in prime real estate in New Delhi. The demand for luxury properties in Delhi remains robust despite the challenges of limited supply, with buyers willing to wait for the right opportunity to secure such coveted assets. The Jain transaction follows other notable high-value property deals in India. For instance, Rishi Parti, the director of Info-x Software Technology, purchased a 16,000 sq. ft penthouse in Gurugram’s DLF The Camellias for ₹190 crore, one of the most expensive apartment transactions in the country. Similarly, Delhi’s luxury real estate market saw a surge in sales in 2023, with 58 ultra-luxury homes (valued at ₹40 crore and above) being sold, marking a significant increase compared to just 13 transactions in the previous year.
The growing appetite for high-end properties in Delhi, Mumbai, and Hyderabad signals a strong demand for luxury real estate, despite the rising prices. As per Pradeep Prajapati, the founder of boutique real estate consultancy Wealthvisory Capital, several similar high-value transactions are reportedly nearing completion, indicating a strong market for ultra-luxury homes in the country. Jain’s purchase further emphasizes the trend among business leaders and wealthy investors in India who are increasingly looking towards premium real estate as a secure and lucrative investment. With more such properties set to change hands in the coming months, New Delhi’s luxury property market remains a prime destination for those with the means to invest in high-end real estate.
