Posted at 13/3/2007 14:40 by roodboy Eredene Capital Investment in Indian TownshipRNS Number:2547L Eredene Capital PLC 31 October 2006 Eredene Capital PLC Announces third investment in Indian real estate *To invest approximately #2.75m for 35% stake in an integrated residential township in Indore, Madhya Pradesh State Eredene Capital PLC (Symbol: ERE), the AIM quoted Indian real estate investor, is pleased to announce it has made its third investment in Indian real estate. The Company has invested approximately #2.75m (Indian Rupees 233m) for a 35% stake in a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) to develop an integrated residential township located in a prime site on the outskirts of the city of Indore in Madhya Pradesh State. The township will be situated on a 100 acre site located off the main Agra-Bombay National Highway and next to the proposed MR-3 arterial road in the area of Bijalpur, some 6 km from the centre of the city of Indore. The site benefits from direct access to the city centre and airport. The site is also on the route between Indore and the 2,600 acre Special Economic Zone (SEZ) at Pithampur, which is one of the hubs for industrial activity in Madhya Pradesh State. The development will be a self-contained fully integrated township and is intended to include residential houses and apartment buildings as well as educational, medical, retail and entertainment facilities for the use of residents. It is anticipated that the project will involve the development and sale of up to 3600 residential units and the development and sale of up to 700 residential land plots. Construction of the project is expected to commence in Q2 2007 with a phased completion and with sales expected to commence in 2008. The project is scheduled for completion in 2011. Eredene's primary joint venture partner in the SPV is Entertainment World Developers Private Limited (EWDPL), an Indian real estate development company headed by Manish Kalani. EWDPL was incorporated in 1999 to develop and construct shopping malls, multiplex cinemas, hotels and large scale residential townships. Manish Kalani has a considerable track record in retail and residential property development in Indore and elsewhere in India. In early October 2006, Eredene announced a large mixed-use development in Indore to be developed in partnership with EWDPL. Saffron Capital Advisors Limited sourced, evaluated and advised on this transaction. Saffron has a highly experienced and talented team specialising in Indian real estate investments in the retail, commercial and residential sectors. Eredene and Saffron entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement in April 2006. Following this investment, Eredene will have invested approximately #13.63m of the #57.1m (then equivalent to approximately US$100m) that it raised in April 2006. Accordingly, Eredene has invested approximately 24% of the fund that it raised in April 2006. Commenting on the Company's latest investment Alastair King, Founder and Chief Executive of Eredene, said: "We are very pleased to announce our third investment. This again demonstrates our ability to deploy Eredene's capital in potentially valuable investments in India's tier 2 and 3 cities where we believe long-term growth and value lies. We have now committed approximately 24% of the funds raised in our April 2006 fund-raising and we intend to continue to invest in projects which represent good opportunities for Eredene." Indore Indore is the largest city in Madhya Pradesh State in central India. It has a population of over 1.2 million (as per 2001 census) and is well known as the commercial capital of the state. The city is located approximately 524km from Mumbai and approximately 674km from New Delhi, and is well connected by rail, road and air to other cities in India. The project lies close to Pithampur, referred to as the "Detroit of India", which is one of the largest automobile manufacturing centres in Asia and is home to leading automotive companies such as Bajaj, Eicher, Hindustan Motors, Kinetic Honda and Bridgestone. Indore has the first green field Special Economic Zone in India and is one of the largest manufacturing locations in Asia for basic and bulk drug formulations. The city has a number of educational institutes including an Indian Institute of Management. - ends - |
