Author Amish Tripathi, celebrated for his globally renowned mythological fiction series, has made a notable real estate investment by purchasing a luxury apartment in Mumbai’s prestigious Worli area for INR 13.65 crore.
The property, part of the esteemed World One project developed by Macrotech Developers Limited, spans approximately 251 square meters (2,700 square feet carpet area) and is described as ready-to-move-in, according to legal documents. The transaction, finalized through a primary sale from Macrotech Developers, incurred additional costs including a stamp duty of INR 81.9 lakh and a transaction fee of INR 30,000. The World One project in Worli is renowned for its exclusive 3 BHK and 4 BHK residences, featuring interiors crafted by the esteemed luxury brand Armani/Casa.
Amish Tripathi’s literary prowess, with over 7 million copies of his books sold worldwide and translations into 20 languages, reflects his significant influence in the literary and now real estate realms. Notably, Tripathi expanded into film production in 2020 with the adaptation of his novel “Legend of Suheldev: The King Who Saved India,” reflecting his diversified entrepreneurial pursuits beyond writing. Macrotech Developers, under its Lodha brand, has recently made headlines in Mumbai’s luxury real estate market. Previously, the developer sold two apartments in its Lodha Malabar project on Walkeshwar Road, Malabar Hill, for INR 270 crore to Anil Gupta, chairman and managing director of Wellknown Polyesters Ltd. In another transaction, directors of Kandoi Fabrics Pvt Ltd acquired two apartments worth INR 109 crore, and the company’s promoters secured four sea-facing properties for INR 217 crore in March 2023.
Amish Tripathi’s acquisition in Worli not only highlights his strategic investment in Mumbai’s upscale property market but also aligns with his expanding portfolio beyond literature. The purchase shows confidence in the long-term value and allure of Worli as a prime residential destination, known for its blend of luxury living and strategic location within Mumbai. The transaction underscores the robust demand for premium properties in prime Mumbai locations, driven by affluent buyers and developers catering to discerning tastes and lifestyle preferences.
