Golden Growth Fund Acquires Land in South Delhi

New Delhi, April 14, 2024: Golden Growth Fund (GGF), a Category-II real estate focussed Alternative Investment Fund (AIF), has announced the acquisition of a land parcel in the posh colony of Neeti Bagh in South Delhi, and is eying a revenue of Rs 100 crore through the sale of boutique apartments catering to the HNIs/UHNIs.

Golden Growth Fund launched a real estate focussed AIF in September 2024 with a commitment to raise Rs 400 crore to acquire land in South and Lutyens Delhi, making it the only fund to invest in this end-user, niche and lucrative real estate market.

This follows the Fund’s inaugural acquisition of a land parcel in Anand Niketan in October 2024.

Ankur Jalan, CEO, Golden Growth Fund said: “We are excited to launch our second project in Neeti Bagh after the overwhelming response we received from our inaugural project in Anand Niketan. GGF has already received 25% commitment of the investment amount in Neeti Bagh project and we aim to deliver an IRR of 20% plus.”

“The South Delhi market is an end-user driven market with limited inventory and less-to-no price volatility as compared to NCR making it an ideal destination for those looking to make safe investments in real estate. To add to this, the growing need to elevate to homes with high-end amenities, rising number of nuclear families and desire to upgrade to a posher colony have driven the demand for luxury floors especially amongst the wealthy doctors, lawyers, businessmen, start-up founders, NRIs etc. in South Delhi.”

The land parcel in Neeti Bagh, measuring 7560 sq. ft., will have only four apartments in Basement+Stilt+4Floors. Each boutique apartment of size approximately 6000 sq. ft. will have all the comforts of modernity that matches the taste of the neo-rich like steam, sauna, jacuzzi, private swimming pool, landscaped area, designer fittings, Italian flooring among others.

Each apartment will have a separate entrance and an elevator for exclusivity and privacy.

South Delhi has around 18,500 privately owned residential plots, categorised as A, B, C and others by MCD, with current market value of Rs 5.65 lakh crore, presenting a huge opportunity for project development.

The average price of plots in Category A colonies range from Rs 7-15 lakh per sq. yd. while the average price in Category B colonies range from Rs 6-12 lakh per sq. yd.

The average price of plots in Neeti Bagh today stands at approximately 12 lakh per sq. yd.

“The Fund has received a very good response. GGF is the only fund that is focussed on South Delhi real estate market and that gives us the first-mover advantage in this vast landscape of South and Lutyens Delhi.”

The Fund recently announced the launch of luxury floors in Anand Niketan, the construction of which is progressing at a brisk pace. The project is being developed by Grovy India, a BSE-listed real estate company.
