Kiran Anil Agarwal, trustee of Vedanta Foundation and wife of the chairman of Vedanta Resources Limited Anil Agarwal, has signed the year’s most expensive real estate deal in Mumbai. She has bought a 3088.38 sq.ft apartment in Worli at ₹1.45 lakh per sq.ft, shelling out ₹45 crore for the 36th floor apartment.

Before Agarwal’s splashy purchase, the year’s most expensive real estate purchase in the city was made by Tata Sons chairman N Chandrasekaran who bought an apartment at Pedder Road for ₹1.43 per sq.ft.

According to documents provided by Zapkey.com, the Agarwals, who already own a bungalow near Samudra Mahal in Worli, bought the flat on the 36th floor of Raheja Legend on Annie Besant Road. It’s the same building where former Indian cricket captain Virat Kohli had rented a flat on the 40th floor, paying a rent of ₹15 lakh per month in 2017. Agarwal’s flat comes with 5 parking slots and she paid a stamp duty of ₹2.5 crore as per documents accessed by HT.
