Real Estate

The tremendous significance of the real estate sector and its impact on other sectors like infrastructure and industry strengthens our position to have this particular practice as one of our core practice areas. The Indian real estate industry is constantly evolving and the regulatory environment demands greater accountability from developers which augurs well for the sector in the long run.

The structuring and financing of real estate transactions is getting more and more complex and sophisticated by the day. Deal structuring in this space requires not only an excellent understanding of the relevant regulations but also an in depth knowledge of the existing market and practices.

The Firm has built a real estate and real estate finance team which has developed significant expertise in this area of practice and offers creative and pragmatic solutions on all matters. Our lawyers are well-versed with our clients’ businesses and the real estate market surrounding them. We have both the technical as well as practical expertise to meet the business requirements of our clients.

We represent several developers, banks & financial institutions and private equity funds in real estate projects and transactions ranging from acquisition of real estate, development, leasing, funding, financing etc. and the regulatory compliances in respect of the same.

We advise developers and landowners on joint development projects, residential condominiums, commercial spaces, integrated townships, special economic zones, industrial parks, re-development projects, slum rehabilitation projects and various other real estate projects. From structuring transactions in light of the central and local regulatory framework, carrying out due diligence on the property, negotiating on behalf of our clients with counter parties to preparing sale kits - our team offers end to end solutions to developers.

Apart from issues under the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 and the regulations thereunder, our lawyers also have an understanding of local laws of various states with respect to ownership, development controls, leasing, land ceiling, stamp duty and registration.
