History

In 2016, India's Brigade Group and Singapore's GIC, a sovereign wealth fund, jointly acquired a 16-acre land parcel at Perungudi, purchased from Kansai Nerolac Paints for 5378.6 million. The land acquisition was facilitated by Perungudi Real Estates, a special purpose vehicle formed by Brigade Enterprises and GIC, with the help of real estate firm Jones Lang Lasalle (JLL). Construction of a world trade center (WTC) and residential units, entailing an investment of more than 10,000 million has been planned on the land.[2]

The total floor space of the construction would be 2,500,000 sq ft.[3] The development will be led by the World Trade Centres Association (WTCA).[4]
