97 pc spike in sale of luxury houses, says CBRE
Delhi-NCR, Mumbai, and Hyderabad emerged as the top three markets dominating sales, cumulatively accounting for nearly 90 per cent of the total luxury housing sales across the top seven cities.
Realty major DLF Ltd on Sunday said that its shopping mall in Noida has been included in the CBRE's list of 22 best retail projects globally for creating an environment to attract shoppers and retain them.
In April last year, DLF formally opened its 2 million sq ft shopping mall in Noida, touted as one of the biggest in the country and built at an investment of Rs.1,800 crore.
India's largest realty firm is expecting about Rs.225 crore rental income per year from the mall that houses 330 brands.
