As per the news reports, Dubai-based Emaar Properties has officially announced that it will not be selling any stake in its Indian operations. Instead, the company is exploring strategic joint ventures with major Indian business groups, notably the Adani Group, to further bolster its real estate portfolio in the country.
In a filing on the Dubai Financial Market dated September 18, 2025, Emaar clarified that it is no longer pursuing a stake sale in its Indian arm. Rather than exiting the Indian market, the company is shifting gears toward forming powerful alliances, including a potential joint venture with the Adani Group. This decision marks a renewed focus from Emaar on expanding operations in India by collaborating with reputed domestic players.
Emaar entered the Indian market in 2005 through a partnership with MGF Development, investing ₹8,500 crore in the process. After a demerger in April 2016, Emaar India has continued independently and now holds an extensive real estate footprint across Delhi-NCR, Mumbai, Mohali, Jaipur, Lucknow and Indore. The new strategy signals Emaar’s intention to strengthen this foundation and capture future growth opportunities through strategic collaboration.

The Adani Group is already an active player in Indian real estate through Adani Realty and Adani Properties. Having secured large redevelopment projects like Mumbai’s Dharavi, Adani’s scale and execution capabilities may align well with Emaar’s ambitions. A joint venture between these two giants could reshape the landscape in key Indian cities, offering premium commercial and residential developments.
Globally, Emaar boasts a land bank of approximately 1.7 billion square feet, with marquee projects such as Burj Khalifa and Dubai Mall. With more than 1,22,000 residential units delivered since 2002, the company has proven development expertise. India continues to be a strategic market within its global vision, contributing to long-term growth and international diversification.
By ruling out any stake sale in India and turning toward joint ventures, particularly with a player like Adani Group, Emaar has reaffirmed its long-term commitment to the Indian real estate sector. The move reflects a strategic pivot focused on collaborative growth and increased local presence.
