In one of the biggest luxury real estate deals of the year, British businessman Sukhpal Singh Ahluwalia has purchased an 11,416 sq. ft. apartment at DLF’s marquee project, The Camellias, on Golf Course Road, Gurugram, for ₹100 crore.
This marks the third ₹100+ crore transaction at the iconic luxury development, reinforcing its status as India’s premier address for ultra-high-net-worth buyers.
Why Ahluwalia Chose The Camellias
Speaking on his decision, Ahluwalia said:
“I was initially thinking of buying a farmhouse but later decided to buy in a gated condominium as we often come to India. We have a house in Kautilya Marg also but will prefer to stay in Gurugram.”
His choice mirrors a growing trend where global Indians and HNIs prefer luxury condominiums over standalone farmhouses, valuing privacy, security, and curated amenities that high-end gated communities provide.
About the Buyer
Sukhpal Singh Ahluwalia is best known as the founder of Euro Car Parts, a UK-based auto parts giant that he later sold. He now leads the Dominvs Group, a London-based firm with interests across real estate, hospitality, and asset management.
The Camellias: India’s Luxury Benchmark
Developed by DLF, The Camellias has consistently set records in India’s residential real estate market. Apartments here currently trade at an average ₹87,800 per sq. ft., among the highest in the country. Rentals too are at elite levels, ranging from ₹12–16 lakh per month (as of April 2025).
Notable past deals at The Camellias include:
- Rishi Parti, Director at Info-X Software Technology, buying a 16,000 sq. ft. penthouse for ₹190 crore.
- Smiti Agarwal, Director at Wesbok Lifestyle Pvt Ltd (wife of V Bazaar CMD Hemant Agarwal), acquiring a luxury unit for ₹100 crore in October 2023.
With Ahluwalia’s entry, The Camellias continues to attract global investors and business leaders, cementing its position as a symbol of India’s luxury housing boom.
Key Takeaway
The ₹100 crore purchase by Sukhpal Ahluwalia showcases not just the demand for ultra-luxury apartments in India, but also the shift of wealthy buyers toward gated, amenity-rich condominiums as the new status symbol.
