The tentative price for the apartments in this luxury housing project is projected to be around INR 5 crore.
Sahil Vachani, Vice Chairman and Managing Director of Max Estates explained that the Gurugram project would feature a unique concept of intergenerational living, where senior and non-senior living will coexist in a single ecosystem with dedicated facilities for both groups. According to Rishi Vachani, the intergenerational living community will have a separate footprint for senior living under the company's sister firm Antara, while the remaining part will be under Max Estates. Vachani elaborated that the senior living section will include dedicated infrastructure, such as healthcare facilities. The project will comprise 864 units, with approximately one-third designated for senior living.
Max Estates has a powerful financial position, with a strong balance sheet and minimal debt. Vachani highlighted that New York Life Insurance, a former partner in the life insurance segment, has invested equity into the company, further strengthening its financial standing. According to Rishi Vachani, Max Estates is one of the few developers with a very strong balance sheet and very little debt, emphasising the company's stability.
The total portfolio of Max Estates spans 12 million square feet, including both delivered and under-construction projects. The portfolio comprises approximately 4 to 4.5 million square feet of commercial space and 7.5 million square feet of residential development. The company's commercial projects are projected to generate an annual rental income of INR 400 to 500 crore, while the total gross development value of its residential projects stands at INR 15,000 crore.
In May 2024, Max Estates disclosed in a regulatory filing that New York Life Insurance Company had invested INR 388 crore to acquire a 49 per cent stake in two operational office complexes of Max Estates. Additionally, New York Life holds a 22.67 per cent share in Max Estates and a 49 per cent stake in the company's new commercial projects in Delhi-NCR.
As Max Estates embarks on the 'Estates 360' project, it underscores the company's commitment to innovative real estate solutions that cater to diverse demographics. The project not only aims to provide luxury living spaces but also seeks to create a joined community for both senior and non-senior residents. This approach is expected to set a new standard in the real estate market, offering a blend of luxury, comfort, and community living. As the project progresses, it will likely become a benchmark for future developments in the region.
