Shares of Prestige Estates Projects came into focus after the company announced its entry into a premium residential project in Mumbai through a joint venture with ABIL Group.
Prestige Group will develop a new residential project in Versova through Aaramnagar Realty LLP, which has the rights to the land. The project covers about 6 acres and can be developed into around 1.7 million square feet of space, with an expected total value of over Rs 90 billion (bn).
