Rs 15 cr penthouses: All 298 Trump Tower Gurugram apartments sold on day 1
Located in Sector 69, Gurugram, the development spans two 51-storey towers and has been launched by Smartworld Developers and Tribeca, in collaboration with The Trump Organization.
Whether you're in the market for a luxury home or just following real estate as a long-term investor, this launch is a clear signal of rising demand for branded, ultra-premium homes in India's top metros—particularly Delhi-NCR, Mumbai, and Pune.
Pankaj Bansal, the founder of Smartworld Developers, said the phenomenal response was a testament to the aspiration for world-class living in India. 'Smartworld is proud to lead the delivery of this landmark project, and we thank our buyers for their trust in our vision,' he added.
Trump Residences Gurgaon comprises two 51-storey towers and offers what developers described as the most 'prestigious addresses in the country.' While Smartworld will oversee development, construction, and customer service of the project, Tribeca will lead design, marketing, sales, and quality control, the two companies said in a statement.
What's special about Trump Residences Gurugram?
Location: Sector 69, a fast-developing zone with proximity to Golf Course Extension Road
Price Range: ₹8–15 crore per unit. The Gurugram Trump Towers project is being launched at Rs 27,000 per square feet.
Design & Construction: Led by Smartworld and Tribeca
Features: Bespoke interiors, private elevators, luxury clubhouses, curated concierge services
Brand Appeal: The 'Trump' name lends a premium that global buyers associate with exclusivity
It will have a total saleable area of 12 lakh square feet. It will feature all-glass façade, double-height living rooms in select units, floor-to-ceiling windows, private elevators, and a shared rooftop offering views of the Aravallis.
This second Trump Tower in Gurugram will feature India's first aquarium bar, a massive aquarium integrated into a bar and restaurant.
This is the second Trump-branded residential development in North India. In 2018, Trump Towers Delhi NCR, launched in Gurugram, is fully sold out and is set for delivery later this month, the statement read.
The Gurugram launch also comes just months after Donald Trump's return to the U.S. presidency, adding a layer of global visibility to the brand's Indian presence.
'The success of the Trump Residences shows that India's wealthiest buyers are not just investing in square footage—they're buying into global branding, exclusivity, and a lifestyle experience,' says a Delhi-based luxury real estate consultant.
What's driving this boom? Rise of HNIs and UHNIs
India is now home to over 13 lakh millionaires, and a growing number are looking for internationally benchmarked homes in familiar metros.
Branded residences are the new status symbol
From DLF to Trump, branded names in real estate offer premium finishes, hotel-style amenities, and elite communities.
Wealth diversification
In uncertain markets, high-net-worth investors are putting money into tangible, inflation-hedged assets like ultra-luxury property.
'Branded residences appeal not just emotionally but financially,' says Kalpesh Mehta, founder of Tribeca. 'They tend to hold value better and often appreciate faster in up-market localities due to their limited supply and high demand.'
Trump Towers in India
This marks the second Trump-branded residential project in Gurugram and the sixth in India. Of the six announced so far, four — in Pune, Mumbai, Kolkata and Gurugram — have already been completed.
India now stands as the largest market for the Trump brand outside the US. Earlier this year, Smartworld and Tribeca committed ₹2,200 crore in investment for the Gurugram project.
The sell-out of Trump Residences Gurugram isn't just about glamour—it's a wake-up call for anyone watching India's luxury housing market. It tells us:

Russia invites Indian exports as US tariffs hit trade, defends oil ties
India can sell more of its products to Russia if it faces challenges in the US market, a senior Russian diplomat said on Wednesday, defending New Delhi's continued purchase of Russian crude oil despite mounting American pressure. At a press conference in New Delhi, Russian Deputy Chief of Mission Roman Babushkin called Washington's stance on India's energy trade with Moscow 'unjustified' and 'unilateral". 'If Indian goods are facing difficulties entering the US market, the Russian market is welcoming Indian exports,' he said. 'The sanctions are hitting those who are imposing them. It is a challenging situation for India but we have trust in our ties. We are confident that India-Russia energy cooperation will continue notwithstanding the external pressure.' #WATCH | Delhi | Roman Babushkin, Chargé d'Affaires of the Russian Embassy in India, says, " (EAM) Dr S Jaishankar is in Moscow. He will meet Mr Lavrov tomorrow. They will discuss everything important, including global issues." — ANI (@ANI) August 20, 2025 'India-Russia ties built on complementarity' Babushkin stressed that Moscow remains India's largest crude oil supplier and that the two economies complement each other. 'Let's proceed from the fact that Russia is the biggest supplier to India of crude oil. And India's demands are growing year by year. Certainly, this is a perfect case of mutual accommodation and complementarity of our economies. We are quite certain that our cooperation will continue,' he said. The Russian diplomat's remarks came a day after White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said US President Donald Trump had imposed new tariffs on India to "discourage" Russia from continuing the Ukraine conflict. A 25 per cent duty is set to take effect on August 27, with Washington already warning of sanctions on countries purchasing Russian oil. India and China are the two largest buyers. Jaishankar in Moscow as tensions rise The comments also coincided with External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar's three-day visit to Russia, where he is scheduled to meet Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov. According to Babushkin, Western nations cannot be trusted to treat India as an equal partner. 'If India refuses Russian oil, it will not lead to equal cooperation with the West in general because it is not in the Western nature, which was clearly demonstrated in recent years. They behave like neocolonial powers that think of their own benefit. This pressure is unjustified and unilateral,' he said. He added, 'If the West criticises you, it means you are doing everything right. We don't expect that to happen (India to stop buying oil from Russia). We know about the challenging circumstances for India. This is the true strategic partnership we are enjoying.' Putin-Modi talks underline partnership Babushkin also highlighted the recent phone call between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Russian President Vladimir Putin. 'The recent phone call by President Putin to PM Modi ji, explaining and sharing the information about recent developments in Ukraine, means India matters a lot to Russia. We are capable of finding any solution for mutual satisfaction. The deepening of our partnership will help us grow together,' he said. He pointed out that despite years of Western sanctions, bilateral trade had grown significantly. 'We have seen this problem of sanctions for many years now, but our trade is growing. In recent years, our trade has grown by seven times,' he noted. Russia slams US 'double standards' The Russian diplomat criticised Washington for straining ties with New Delhi while calling itself a partner. 'As we all know, the sanctions are a tool of unlawful competition. It's always about double standards. A lack of trust, blackmail and pressure, as well as disrespect of national interests. Friends don't behave like that,' he said. He added that Russia and Brics countries never impose sanctions, calling non-UN and secondary sanctions 'illegal". 'They just weaponise the economy. Despite the tremendous sanction pressure on Russia, you will see the Russian economy is growing steadily,' he said. US tariffs hit Indian exports On August 6, Trump announced an additional 25 per cent duty on Indian goods over New Delhi's continued oil imports from Russia. He later doubled the tariff to 50 per cent, the highest imposed on any country apart from Brazil. Key Indian export sectors such as textiles, leather, and marine products are expected to be badly hit. India condemned the move as 'unfair, unjustified and unreasonable'. Prime Minister Modi has said New Delhi will not bow to economic pressure. Leavitt later clarified that the sanctions aimed to put 'secondary pressure on Russia.' She added, 'The president has put tremendous public pressure to bring this war to a close. He's taken actions, as you've seen, sanctions on India and other actions as well.' (With ANI inputs)
