When contacted, Tata Housing spokesperson declined to comment.
This would be the second such platform for Tata Housing.
Tata Housing’s subsidiary Tata Valuer Homes has formed a platform of about $90 million as it targets to develop about 16,800 homes over the next 10 years.
In May last year, World Bank Group member IFC had announced an investment of $25 million (around 160 crore) to finance affordable projects by Tata Housing. In May this year, UK-based CDC also invested $25 million.
Established in 1984, Tata Housing is a subsidiary of Tata Sons, which holds 99.86 per cent of equity share capital of the company.
Tata Housing has 70 million square feet under various stages of planning and execution and an additional 19 million square feet in the pipeline. It has projects across major cities.
