CBRE Enables IL&FS’ Iconic Property Transaction for Rs 1,080 Crores
CBRE South Asia Pvt. Ltd., India’s leading real estate consulting firm, announced conclusion of one of India’s largest real estate asset resolutions of IL&FS’ headquarters in Mumbai. The iconic property located in the city’s business district, Bandra-Kurla complex (BKC), will be acquired by Brookfield for INR 1,080 crores. The marquee property, with around 4.5 lakh sq. ft. of leasable area, houses eminent tenants such as IBM and Paypal. The iconic IL&FS Financial Centre was one of the first grade A buildings in BKC.

The deal was a part of resolutions by a government-appointed board, led by Uday Kotak, filed with Hon’ble National Company Law Tribunal Mumbai (Special) Bench / National Company Law Appellate Tribunal. IL&FS has filed the application of approval from NCLT and is expecting the deal closure post approval in the next couple of quarters. “The transaction is yet another accolade of CBRE’s exceptional client services that continue to refine and develop in-line with the evolving market dynamics.
