Known for its luxury apartments, Realty firm Sobha is entering the residential property market in Delhi and Hyderabad. The firm has reportedly ventured with the local landlords to build a total of 1.5 million sq ft of high-end apartments in both the cities.

The company has planned 270 units of above 1850 sq ft in Somajiguda, Hyderabad and 406 units over 2150 sq ft each in Badarpur, Delhi. The company is also planning to launch projects over 10 million sq ft of residential projects, including its affordable segment ‘dream series’ worth Rs 4,500 crore over the next five years.
Apart from its commercial and retail projects, a Bengaluru based real estate firm is focusing more on the mid-income homes. As there is a rise in the demand in the market of Rs 50 lakh housing sector, Sobha is looking forward to growing significantly in the affordable housing sector.
