Chromohomes: a journey going stronger

Excerpt from the discussion with Ambika Saxena, CEO & Co- Founder of Chromohomes Media & Entertainment Pvt. Ltd. where she takes us through the journey of India's 1st National Real Estate Magazine. 

"The journey started in the year 2015 when I ventured out with India's First National Real Estate Magazine: CHROMOHOMES under my company Chromohomes Media & Entertainment Pvt ltd." Ambika says and then continues.

The story goes a long way. My husband, Dushyant Sinha has been quite a renowned marketing & communication consultant in the real estate sector. I always used to hear from him that real-estate sector inspite of being the biggest contributor to country's GDP has always been neglected. Infact it is one of the only sectors where no media house (apart from electronic news channels) or no one has ever created a national platform to showcase their work. This is where the idea struck me! And I decided to create India's 1st National Real Estate magazine which will be informative, have rich content along with lots of innovative & interesting articles which can get a reader glued to the magazine. 

We launched the magazine in the month of May, 2015 and launched it simultaneously in 6 cities in the first step. Gradually, we now have a presence in 8 cities along with Dubai, which is another real estate hub. 

One doesn't find a lot of women in top management in real estate or connected sectors. So there was an initial inhibition which faded away when I saw the oodles of appreciation coming my way. 

Chromohomes or 'CH',as people fondly call it, is today the largest circulated real estate magazine in India which comes every month. We today have expanded our offices from Noida (head-office) to Chandigarh and have recently opened a new office in Mumbai as-well. 

The magazine boasts of young and creative people in the research & content development team along with experienced & seasoned editorial team. 

We are planning to expand our region to over 12 cities in the next quarter and aim to capture 20 cities by next financial year end. With January 2016 we have made the magazine available online and are now focussing strongly on expanding our reach via online media. Very soon the company will also be launching their own mobile app, which will be one of its kinds in the country.

RMZ Corp to buy Essar’s Equinox Business Park for $353M

Bangalore-based developer RMZ Corp has agreed to acquire Equinox Business Park in Mumbai from the realty arm of Essar Group for Rs 2,400 crore ($353 million) in the country’s biggest property deal in rupee terms.

The two companies have signed a definitive agreement for the deal, Essar said in a statement.

The Equinox Business Park is spread across 1.25 million sq ft and is located in Mumbai’s Bandra-Kurla Complex. It has four towers, of which three have been completed and rented out while the fourth is yet to see tenants move in.

The business park houses tenants including Nissan Motors, Acropolis, Crompton Greaves, Gilbarco Aegis and Lafarge. It also has some Essar offices. 

“This acquisition will extend our core businesses into the growing markets,” said Manoj Menda, corporate vice chairman, RMZ Corp.

RMZ has 20 million sq ft of core assets under management and aims to grow it to 80 million sq ft in five years. Besides going solo, it acquires commercial assets through a joint investment platform with Qatar Investment Authority (QIA). The platform recently acquired an IT park in Gurgaon from BPTP Ltd for Rs 850 crore.

Major realty deals
The RMZ-Equinox deal is the biggest in rupee terms and one of the biggest in dollar terms as the local currency has depreciated against the greenback over the past couple of years.

In 2014, a joint venture between Embassy Group and Blackstone acquired a majority stake in Vrindavan TechVillage business park in Bangalore in a deal that valued the property at Rs 1,951 crore ($324 million then).

Also in 2014, Unitech Corporate Parks signed a deal to sell its majority stake in all its projects to Brookfield Property Partners for £205.9 million (Rs 2,049 crore or $347 million then).

One of the biggest commercial deals last year involved Blackstone paying almost Rs 1,060 crore ($165 million then) to buy 247 Business Park in Mumbai from Milestone Capital and Hindustan Construction Company.

Essar’s withdrawal strategy
The asset sale is in line with Essar’s strategy to divest non-core assets. The group has reduced its focus on real estate over the years and is looking to exit most assets it has under Equinox Realty.

“This is in line with the present objective and focus of Essar to monetise non-core assets and deleverage the balance sheet,” said Anshuman Ruia, a member of the family that controls the Essar Group.

The realty arm was started in 2007 and has 16 million sq ft under various stages of development, according to its website. Its projects are spread across Maharashtra, Karnataka, Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh.
