Amitabh Bachchan’s multi-crore real estate empire: Ayodhya, Mumbai, Dubai & more |
Amitabh Bachchan has emerged as the biggest celebrity investor in Ayodhya’s fast-growing real estate market, with land acquisitions in the temple town now estimated at over Rs 90-100 crore.Over the past two years, the actor has built a sizeable property portfolio spanning residential, commercial and institutional holdings, even as he continues to expand his real estate investments across India. This spanns multiple parcels, including a 25,000 square feet luxury plot near the Sarayu development bought for close to Rs 40 crore, and a 67-acre land parcel purchased through his company, AB Corp Ltd, for Rs 35 crore.A separate 54,454 square feet plot has been registered in the name of the Harivansh Rai Bachchan Memorial Trust, where a memorial for his father is proposed to come up. His initial Ayodhya purchase, a 10,000 square feet plot bought ahead of the Ram Mandir consecration for Rs 14.5 crore, was followed by a 5,372 square feet parcel worth Rs 4.54 crore. But before venturing into Ayodhya’s real estate market, he invested in properties in Allahabad, Mumbai, Pune, and beyond.Here’s a detailed overview of his real estate investment
Mumbai holdings: Jalsa, Janak, Prateeksha and Vatsa
The Ayodhya investments add to a real estate portfolio built over decades, concentrated primarily in Mumbai. Bachchan’s principal residence, Jalsa, is a 10,000 square feet bungalow in Juhu currently valued at approximately Rs 120 crore, according to Magicbricks.Nearby stands Janak, valued at around Rs 50 crore, which houses the office of Amitabh Bachchan Corporation Limited (ABCL) and is used for business and family purposes. Prateeksha, the family’s earlier residence in Juhu, has been retained for its heritage value, while another adjoining property, Vatsa, has been leased commercially to Citibank.
Properties outside Mumbai
Beyond Mumbai, Bachchan’s holdings include two bungalows in Koregaon Park, Pune, valued at Rs 20–25 crore, and a luxury villa in Dubai’s Emirates Hills, estimated at over Rs 60 crore. He also holds agricultural land near Prayagraj (Allahabad) in Uttar Pradesh, reflecting ties to his ancestral roots, valued at over Rs 10 crore.Amitabh Bachchan also purchased land in Shahpur village, part of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s dream project GIFT City, where he plans to build a premium flat.
Recent sale: Two Goregaon apartments for Rs. 12 crore
Recently, Bachchan offloaded two adjacent luxury apartments on the 47 floor of a high-rise tower in Goregaon (West), Mumbai. The two units, each measuring 1,820 square feet with two car-parking spaces, were sold in separate deals for Rs 6 crore each, taking the combined sale value to Rs 12 crore. Stamp duty across both transactions totalled approximately Rs 60 lakh.The Goregaon sale is being read as part of a broader shift of premium residential demand toward Mumbai’s western suburbs, away from the traditionally dominant South Mumbai and Juhu corridors.Bachchan’s overall estimated real estate holdings across Mumbai, Pune, Dubai, Uttar Pradesh and Ayodhya are valued at over Rs 500 crore, spanning residential, commercial and agricultural land categories.
