The Poonawalla group has been expanding its real estate business in recent years, especially in Pune. It partnered with the Pune-based developer Panchshil Realty to set up the Business Bay in Pune's Yerwada suburb, as well as a hotel adjacent to it, with the hotel being managed under the Ritz-Carlton brand.

A total of Rs 27.65 crore was paid as stamp duty for the transaction. The deal was made through four transactions, registered on September 11.
The Poonawalla group's expansion in the real estate sector is expected to have a positive impact on the industry, given its reputation and expertise in other sectors.
