This deal, as reported by The Economic Times, stands to be the largest residential portfolio deal in the country to date.

The Damanis' sea-view apartments are located in the Three Sixty West project on Dr Annie Besant Road and were purchased from the Sahana Group, Who had formed a joint venture with Oberoi Realty to develop the property.

According to the same sources, the mixed-use development consists of two towers, one housing the Ritz-Carlton hotel and the other luxury residences managed by Ritz-Carlton. Oberoi Realty has also reportedly bought 63 apartments in the project from the Sahana Group for over INR 3,400 crore as part of a buyout deal.

In 2020, Oberoi Realty acquired Sahana Group's stake in the hospitality project via its subsidiary Evenstar Hotels. The acquisition was made for a sum of 1,040 crore and involved the acquisition of 50% rights in the 221-key luxury hotel property.
