Savji Dhanji Dholakia, founder and chairman of Hari Krishna Exports, confirmed the deal. Essar Group spokesperson could not be reached.
Essar Group has utilised the funds received through these transactions to repay part of its debt as Arkay Holdings had granted this property as security for availing a loan.
The last large transaction for a property on Worli sea face was concluded in 2012, when Hindustan Unilever had sold its guest house and training centre ‘Gulita’ spread over little less than an acre to Piramal Realty for Rs 452 crore.
