Max Estates share surges: Shares of Max Estates were in demand on Wednesday, September 25, 2024 as the scrip rallied up to 8.74 per cent to hit an intraday high of Rs 640 per share.
The uptick in the share price came after the company announced that it has received Rs 391 crore from New York Life Insurance Company for strategic investments in Max Towers and Max House (Phase I & II).
Both are rent-yielding operational commercial assets located in Noida and Delhi. Meanwhile, Max Estates retains a 51 per cent stake in both special purpose vehicles (SPVs), the company highlighted.

This capital infusion significantly enhances Max Estates’ financial capability to deliver toptier commercial and residential projects in Delhi-NCR while ensuring a well-balanced capital structure to support the company’s growth plans.
With this latest investment, New York Life’s total commitment to Max Estates now stands at Rs 1,200 crore. Apart from that, this capital infusion will boost Max Estates’ capacity to accelerate its growth initiatives in both commercial and residential real estate sectors.
Following a Qualified Institutional Placement (QIP), Max Estates now boasts over Rs 1,200 crore in equity growth capital, positioning the company to expand its operations and seize new opportunities in the real estate market.
“The plan is to allocate a significant portion of these funds to support its expansion into the rapidly growing residential market and seize emerging opportunities. This strategic investment will also help Max Estates achieve its goal of acquiring at least 3 million square feet of development opportunities annually while reshaping the future of real estate in the NCR Region,” Vachani added.
Founded in 2016, Max Estates Limited is the real estate division of the Max Group. The company focuses on developing premium commercial and residential properties in the Delhi NCR region.

Currently, the company is also working on two commercial office projects, Max Square Two, adjacent to Max Square, and a new venture on Golf Course Extension Road, marking its entry into the Gurugram market.
