In December 2020, when Janhvi Kapoor had bought her Juhu house spread over three floors, she made headlines. The reason being at the age of 23, she became one of the youngest celebrity to pay a whooping Rs 39 crore for a house. Now at the age of 25, she has sold the same house for Rs 43.87 Crore, thus ending up gaining a profit of Rs 4.87 crore.
Janhvi Kapoor on December 7, 2020 had bought the triplex. The flat is spread on the 14th, 15th and 16th floor of the building named Araya in Juhu, surrounded with schools and greenery. The building is located on one of the corners of the Hatkesh Society within the JVPD scheme.
So whom, did she sell this triplex? The new owners of the flat are a husband and wife duo and both of them are celebrities too. Rajkumar Yadav (Rajkummar Rao) and his wife Patralekha Misra Paul bought the home from Janhvi Kapoor by paying a whopping Rs 43.87 crore.
The carpet area of the flat as per the documents accessed by SquareFeatIndia.com is 3,456 area. The new owners will have access to six car parks in the building.
According to the registration documents the deal between Janhvi and Rajkummar Rao and his wife Patralekha was finalised on March 31, 2022, but was registered on July 21, 2022.
A stamp duty of Rs 2.19 crore was paid by the new owners for the registration of the home. When Janhvi had bought the home, she has paid a stamp duty of Rs 78 lakh. The reason for this huge difference in stamp duty was the state government between September 2020 to December 2020 had announced a 3% concession in stamp duty.
The registration document mentions the current address of Rajkummar and Patralekha as the 11th and 12th floor of the same building Araya. While Janhvi’s address is that of Lokhandwala complex/
