Jab jaaago tab sawera, tension ki koi baat nai hai: Vikas Oberoi on Gurugram real estate market

Hindustan Times5 days ago
Vikas Oberoi, CMD, of Oberoi Realty, while reacting to a question about the saturation of the Gurugram real estate market, said that 'Jab jaago tab sawera hota hai, koi tension ki baat nai hain' (It's morning when you get up, there is nothing to worry). The company has purchased land prudently for its first project in Delhi NCR, Oberoi said during the Q1FY26 conference call on July 22. Vikas Oberoi, CMD, said in April 2025 that Oberoi Realty plans to develop a high-end luxury project in Gurugram, featuring apartments ranging from 5,000 to 8,000 sq ft. (Oberoi Realty)
Oberoi said the company has all the permissions for its first project in Gurugram and is getting ready for the launch.
Speaking about whether the Gurugram project will have demand similar to their Mumbai's Three Sixty West Project, Oberoi said, "If the story of Gurugram is completely over, then I cannot say anything, I mean, if you say so. But otherwise, I mean, I'm just saying that it is like any other day. We are in our comfort zone, and we will build quality, and I'm sure we'll do it."

Work started on the Gurugram site of Oberoi Realty
According to Oberoi, the company has started the demolition work at the site and has also started its office in Gurugram.
"We are formally and physically present there. Design work is complete. Contracts have been negotiated, ready to be issued -- almost likely issued. So, all ready to roll now. And yes, the entire approval process is also complete. Today, we have the license in our name, and the land is in our name. So, the title for the entire property is clear," Oberoi said during the call.

Evaluating more than 1,000 land proposals every year
During the call, Vikas Oberoi said that the company is evaluating more than 1,000 land proposals every year.
"We have stringent conditions through which we take every proposal. It has to meet all criteria. Once they do that, then we are most happy to go ahead and close the deal," Oberoi said.
"And we are currently focusing on Mumbai and NCR. We are in no hurry, and we want to establish our sales in Gurugram and then look at something new. And Mumbai, we continue to look at all the good suburbs where you do not have to push a product. There is a pull factor with location, with the quality of the product we make, and then buyers come in. We don't want to go into weak locations," Oberoi said.

"It is very similar to what we are doing, maybe a smaller version of Three Sixty West. It's high-end, high-quality, and it's very well designed," Oberoi had said.

After Jeetendra, Akshay Kumar hits JACKPOT, sells two apartments for Rs...

After Jeetendra made waves by selling a Rs 855 crore land parcel in Andheri to NTT Global Data Centers, it seems Akshay Kumar is following suit. The Khiladi star is playing a different kind of game, this time on Mumbai's property board. Akshay Kumar has just sold two adjacent apartments in Borivali East for a whopping Rs 7.10 crore. Purchased in 2017 for Rs 3.69 crore, the homes, located in Oberoi Sky City, have appreciated by 92% in just eight years. The deal, according to SquareYards, was registered recently with all the stamp duties and paperwork in place. The first unit, a spacious 1,101 sq ft flat with two car parks, went for Rs 5.75 crore. This alone drew a stamp duty of Rs 34.50 lakh, plus Rs 30,000 in registration charges. Right next to it was a 252 sq ft studio apartment, sold for Rs 1.35 crore, again nearly double the original purchase price of Rs 67.90 lakh. The stamp duty on this was Rs 6.75 lakh. Both units were bought by Pravin and Sabita Shetty, as per the official documents. Who's buying, and how big is the demand? The apartments are part of Oberoi Sky City, a premium project by Oberoi Realty. From August 2024 to July 2025, this single project has clocked Rs 428 crore in sales across 100 units, with the going resale rate at around Rs 47,800 per sq ft. The names involved in these recent deals (buyer or seller) aren't speaking; no comments yet from Akshay or the Shettys. But the paper trail speaks volumes. Is this part of a larger trend? Absolutely. This isn't an isolated sale; it's part of a pattern. In the last seven months alone, Akshay has sold at least 8 real estate assets, both residential and commercial, across Borivali, Worli, and Lower Parel, raking in returns of ₹110 crore+. Some key transactions: In Jan 2025, a 1,073 sq ft Borivali apartment went for Rs 4.25 crore. Jan 31, 2025: Akshay and wife Twinkle Khanna sold a luxury sea-facing apartment at Oberoi 360 West, Worli, for a jaw-dropping Rs 80 crore. In March 2025, another Borivali East apartment was sold for Rs 4.35 crore (84% ROI). Two more units fetched Rs 6.60 crore combined. In April 2025, he sold a commercial office in Lower Parel for Rs 8 crore, bought just five years ago at Rs 4.85 crore. So… why the selling spree? That's the million-dollar (or Rs 110-crore) question. No official word yet, but industry insiders are watching closely.
