ELP Provides Legal Counsel for Prozone Realty’s $32 Million Stake Acquisition

Prozone Realty Limited and its group company, Prozone Liberty International Limited, along with their wholly owned subsidiary, Kruti Developers Private Limited (collectively, the PRL Group), have made a significant strategic move by consolidating equity stakes in three key Indian project companies. These companies include Alliance Mall Developers Co. Private Limited, Empire Mall Private Limited, and Hagwood Commercial Developers Private Limited (collectively, the Material Subsidiaries). The acquisition, valued at approximately $32 million, was completed from offshore private equity sellers.

The transaction involved the acquisition of the entire equity stakes held by offshore private equity investors—Triangle Real Estate India Holdings Limited, Triangle Real Estate India Projects Limited, Triangle Real Estate India Investments Limited, Pearlscope Limited, and Nailsfield Limited (collectively, the Sellers)—in each of the Material Subsidiaries. This move transitions these entities into full control by the PRL Group.

Economic Laws Practice (ELP) played a crucial role in this transaction, serving as legal counsel for the PRL Group. The firm provided comprehensive advice on the Indian legal and regulatory framework, including secondary share transfers and foreign investor exits under the Companies Act, foreign exchange regulations, and listing law requirements.

The transaction was led by Suhail Nathani (Managing Partner) and Manendra Singh (Partner), with additional support from Tanvi Goyal (Associate Partner), Ambareen Khatri (Senior Associate), and Hetvi Parikh (Associate). Their expertise and guidance were instrumental in ensuring the smooth execution of the deal.

Prozone Realty Limited is a listed real estate developer and a pioneer in transforming India’s urban landscape. The company is known for its retail-led, large-format malls and mixed-use developments, including associated residential projects in cities such as Aurangabad, Coimbatore, and Nagpur. This acquisition further solidifies Prozone’s position in the Indian real estate market, enhancing its portfolio and strategic presence.

The successful completion of this transaction not only marks a significant milestone for Prozone Realty but also highlights the robust legal framework and expertise provided by ELP. As the real estate sector continues to evolve, such strategic consolidations are expected to play a crucial role in shaping the future of urban development in India.
