Gurugram real estate: Oberoi Realty to enter Gurugram with high-end luxury project inspired by Three Sixty West
Mumbai-based Oberoi Realty is set to enter the Gurugram real estate market with a high-end luxury project, featuring apartments ranging from 5,000 to 8,000 sq ft, according to Vikas Oberoi, CMD of Oberoi Realty.
Oberoi said the Gurugram project will be modeled after the company's flagship luxury development, Three Sixty West, located in Mumbai's Worli. There, apartments are priced at ₹1.50 lakh per sq ft.
During an investment call last week, Oberoi mentioned that the company is focusing on the high-end luxury segment for its Gurugram venture.
"It is very similar to what we are doing, maybe a smaller version of Three Sixty West. It will start with 5,000 (sq ft) or so, and will go up to 7,500, 8,000 (sq ft). So it's literally that sort of product, it's high-end, high-quality, and it's very well designed," said Oberoi.
"Approval-wise, we constantly keep getting approval (for the Gurugram project), so there is really no challenge. We have got a few approvals in the past, maybe a few weeks ago, and the rest of them are also in place, so we are on a good wicket there,' he said.
Oberoi Realty plans to launch its high-end luxury project in Gurugram in the second half of the current financial year. In November 2023, the company announced the acquisition of 14.81 acres of land in Sector 58, Gurugram, Haryana, for ₹597 crore.
According to the company, the land has the potential to develop up to 2.6 million sq ft of floor area.

"Over the past three years, Gurgaon has seen the highest sales value in Delhi NCR, making it a highly attractive market. With limited established local players, Mumbai developers see a clear opportunity to tap into the demand," said Ritesh Mehta, Senior Director and Head (North and West), Residential Services and Developer Initiative at JLL India, a real estate consultancy firm.
According to Mehta, "For Oberoi Realty, entering the Gurugram market is a strategic move to diversify geographically and establish a presence in a high-growth, premium-driven zone. The city's evolving buyer profile and robust infrastructure development further enhance its appeal."
In December 2024, Oberoi Realty announced its acquisition of 81 acres of land in the coastal town of Alibaug near Mumbai. The company plans to develop a luxury hotel and branded residence villas as part of the project.
Speaking about the project launch, Oberoi stated that it could take place by the end of this year.
"We would try to do it in, maybe the second half of this year also. But here we want to first do the sample villa. We want to do a restaurant, this is the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, and villas. So, we want to do a restaurant managed by Ritz, and then do a show villa, and then call people and all that give them a complete feel and flavour of what they will be buying into," Oberoi said.

Oberoi Realty has secured rental deals for space in the Borivali Sky City Mall at a rate of ₹1,000 per sq ft, according to the company.
"We have rentals up to Rs1,000 a square foot on carpet area. So, between Rs400 and Rs1,000, it's something like that. So, it all depends on who is coming in, we have got a very nice gold souk, a kind of special area where we have got all the jewellers there. We have got very high-end watches in one segment, so they are very interesting. This is literally one of the best malls I would say in the country, the way it is designed, and the feedback that we get, it's really, really nice. And these are the deals signed at Rs1,000 carpet," said Vikas Oberoi.
In March 2025, Oberoi Realty held a soft launch for its Sky City Mall in Borivali, marking its second mall in Mumbai after Oberoi Mall in Goregaon East.

Who is Nicole Daedone, the woman accused of forcing employees into sexual acts?
The founder of sexual wellness company, OneTaste Inc., and its former sales head have been convicted of forced labour charges by a Brooklyn court. The California-based company promoted 'orgasmic meditation', or 'OM', which was carried out by men manually stimulating women in a group setting. Following a five-week trial, the court on Monday found Nicole Daedone, 57, founder of OneTaste, and Rachel Cherwitz, 44, the former sales director, guilty after deliberating for less than two days, reports said. The two accused could face up to 20 years in prison. During the case hearing, prosecutors argued that Nicole and Rachel ran a years-long scheme that groomed adherents, many of them victims of sexual trauma, to do their bidding. The two women used economic, sexual and psychological abuse, intimidation and indoctrination to force OneTaste members into sexual acts such as having sex with prospective investors or clients. Assistant US Attorney Nina Gupta, in her closing statement last week, said the defendants 'built a business on the backs' of victims who 'gave everything' to them, including 'their money, their time, their bodies, their dignity, and ultimately their sanity.' 'The jury's verdict has unmasked Daedone and Cherwitz for who they truly are: grifters who preyed on vulnerable victims by making empty promises of sexual empowerment and wellness only to manipulate them into performing labor and services for the defendants' benefit,' said Joseph Nocella, US Attorney for the Eastern District of New York. Nicole Daedone of New York co-founded OneTaste in San Francisco in 2004 as a sort of self-help commune that viewed female orgasms as key to sexual and psychological wellness and interpersonal connection. Portrayed as a cutting-edge enterprise that prioritised women's sexual pleasure, the sexual wellness company generated revenue by providing courses, coaching, OM events, and other sexual practices for a fee. OneTaste enjoyed glowing media coverage in the 2010s and quickly opened centres from Los Angeles to London. Nicole sold her stake in OneTaste in 2017 for $12 million, a year before the company's marketing and labour practices were criticised. OneTaste's current owners, who have rebranded it as the Institute of OM Foundation, said its work has been misconstrued, and the charges against its former executives were unjustified. They also said sexual consent has always been a cornerstone of the organisation.

Office ke bahar 10 bande le aaunga: Delhi-based business owner shares horror hiring story and threat; Reddit post viral
Hiring your first employee is stressful enough. But for one Delhi-based man, it turned into a full-blown nightmare. The original poster (OP) u/Prestigious_Cold9315 took to the Delhi subreddit to post his chilling encounter with a job candidate hired through a popular job seeking/application portal. What followed was a no show, a money ask, and a threat. This led OP to seek answers and advice from Reddit users, many of whom offered their own pearls of wisdom. The incident took place at a small family-run furniture store in Delhi. The poster (OP) (setting out to hire an employee for the very first time) recruited someone to handle basic accounting tasks using resource management software, Tally. But what followed, he says, felt like something out of a scammy social media reel. The candidate didn't show up on the scheduled joining day, citing health issues. After a delay of about three or four days, he arrived at the store — on a day that the employer wasn't even present! What's more, he called only to say that he had come to talk. The next day, the man returned, worked briefly, and asked for ₹500, claiming he needed it for an ultrasound. OP gave him the money, only to then be ghosted for several more days. When contacted again, this employee demanded more money — ₹350 to be exact — claiming it as was the balance for his one day of work (going by an ₹850 dihadi). When refused? He threatened the employer, saying: 'Main Jaat hoon. Office ke bahar 10 bande le aaunga kal.' Safe to say OP took it as a wake up call, seeking advice to mend his hiring ways. Commenters on the post were quick to label the employee a 'fraud', warning against recruiting anyone without comprehensive background checks, vetting the CV, and following up on the reccomendations. 'You my friend ended up hiring a fraud. Anyway he will not do anything. Block him and do your work. Hire someone else and do a proper background check,' shared one user, ad another adviced, 'Keeps the call on record next time. File a complaint if he threatens again.' Another suggested a legal recourse: 'File a police complaint. Let the police handle this. Get an employment contract in place in future if you don't.' Some users also felt that taking a threat for sucha low amount should not be taken so seriously. 'Don't think so this person can do much if he's threatening for 350rs. Also, why was he asking for the money if he didn't show up for 3 more days?' commented a user. Another suggested reporting and flagging off the profile on the hiring portal, 'If you can, figure out how to report his profile to naukri. Send him a formal email saying he's been paid 500 for x number of hours (if he indeed did any work). Let him know his employment is terminated. Let him know, if he treathens you further, ki woh 35rs ke liye 10 bande layega toh wakai gazab hojayega. Formally likh dena that as he didn't work, he won't get paid. And him contacting you further will result in your filing a police complaint against him. Bus. Don't be scared. Barking dogs seldom bite and ig you have cameras? Let him know too. For your protection, you can let the police know if you're really scared.' The employer is now looking into how to report the incident and flag the profile on the job portal. Meanwhile, users continue to offer advice: conduct proper background checks, issue offer letters with clear terms, and — most importantly — never give money casually, even in emergencies. Whether this threat materialises or not, the post has hit a nerve with small business owners and first-time recruiters across social media — especially those navigating the complex hiring landscape without the cushion of a corporate HR team.
