The investment has been made in Anand Niketan and Neeti Bagh, while the third project, in another Category A colony in South Delhi, is expected to come up in the next four months.
The cumulative area of the three projects is approximately 70,000 sq. ft. The construction on the project in Anand Niketan commenced in January 2025 while the same in Neeti Bagh will begin next month.
The sales potential of the three projects is the tune of approx. Rs 240 crore.
Ankur Jalan, CEO, Golden Growth Fund said, “These investments in South Delhi reiterates our commitment to developing and delivering not just high-quality projects but also ensure a safe and stable 20%+ IRR to our investors. The non-volatile nature of the South Delhi real estate market has led to increased investment with discerning buyers looking to invest in upscale neighbourhood with homes that offer state-of-the-art amenities and privacy. To add to it, excellent connectivity to airport and prime office destinations in Delhi-NCR make it a lucrative destination. As a result, the past few years have seen increased redevelopment in prime South Delhi colonies and exceptional price appreciation.”
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 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,” Jalan added.
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.

Antara Senior Care Launches Care Home in Chennai for Assisted Living and Rehabilitation Care Needs
Chennai, 28th May 2025: Antara Senior Care, India’s leading provider of holistic senior–care solutions and a wholly owned subsidiary of Max India Limited, has launched the first of its care homes in Chennai. The ~30,000 sq. ft., 43-bed facility on East Coast Road (ECR) addresses the growing demand for specialized senior care. It offers assisted living for seniors who need support with daily activities, as well as rehabilitative and recovery services for those recuperating after major health events.
Chennai is one of India’s leading medical tourism hubs. It draws a significant number of domestic medical tourists with its robust medical infrastructure, and attracts a large number of international patients, many among them seniors. However, despite the strong medical setup, the infrastructure that aids structured recovery and rehabilitation remains underdeveloped. Additionally, Chennai has a growing population of senior citizens, underlining the urgent need to create systems that support those without relevant care backup at home to regain health with ease and dignity.
Ishaan Khanna, CEO, Antara Assisted Care Services, said, “With the launch of our new Antara Care Home on the East Coast Road, we are excited to bring to Chennai a facility that is built to deliver the highest standard of rehabilitative and recuperative care to seniors, as well as assisted living services for those requiring long-term support. Antara‘s commitment to high-quality clinical governance in coordination with the treating doctor, and professional caregiving is directed to help residents get the support needed to tide over health setbacks, even when they live independently. For those needing ongoing assistance with daily activities, our assisted living solutions provide a secure, dignified environment with 24/7 professional care. We aim to provide seniors and their children a stress-free recovery experience and quality assisted living option in an environment built around their needs.”
