Delhi: Leading financial investor KKR has committed to invest ₹200 Crore in the National Capital Region based affordable housing player Signature Global India Private Limited. The company has alongside launched two more affordable housing projects in Gurugram primarily ‘The Millenia’ in Sector – 37D and Solera 2, in Sector 107. The projects would also be coming up under the Haryana Affordable Housing Policy like their earlier projects. The company also plans to deliver the first phase of the project Solera, launched in 2015 under the same policy and awarded a 5 star rating from CARE Rating, by the early 2018. This will be the first delivery of any Haryana affordable housing policy project across Haryana .
Apart from the recent accrual of ₹200 Crores, Signature Global had also raised ₹150 Crores from ICICI Prudential in May last year. To boost rural and urban housing , post demonetisation, the Prime Minister had announced interest subsidy of up to 3, 4 & 6.5 per cent on loans taken under the Pradhan Mantri Awaas Yojana. The amount raised through this recent funding would be used towards the development of its affordable housing projects.

Lalit Aggarwal , Co – founder & Joint Managing director added we are also exploring opportunities for Joint Development Agreement across the country in affordable housing segment. Talks are already in the closing stages of a JDA in Mumbai for affordable housing.
