Entrepreneur Manav Sardana has made history in the luxury real estate market by purchasing a penthouse at DLF's ultra-luxury project, The Dahlias, for an astounding Rs 271 crore. This sale surpasses previous high-end prices that have become common in Gurugram's super-luxury housing sector. Spanning over 17,200 sq ft, the penthouse was acquired by Sardana, who is associated with Imperial Auto, according to a PTI report. The transaction translates into approximately Rs 1.58 lakh per sq ft on the super area and nearly Rs 2.6 lakh per sq ft on the carpet area, making it one of India's most expensive residential deals per square foot. This purchase not only marks one of the biggest single-home purchases in India but also potentially ranks among the country's costliest residential deals on a per-square-foot basis. The sale is part of an ongoing trend of high-value home purchases within DLF's Golf Links ecosystem in Gurugram, with similar transactions taking place at The Camellias and The Dahlias. The penthouse at The Dahlias boasts a super area of 17,200 sq ft and a carpet area of 10,500 sq ft, with the latter being crucial in determining the per-square-foot price. DLF launched The Dahlias, a 17-acre project with 420 apartments and penthouses, in October 2024. Regular apartments at the project are priced between Rs 100 crore and Rs 170 crore, while penthouses command a higher price. The development is expected to generate more than Rs 40,000 crore in total revenue and has already sold over 65% of its units.
