In this segment, Max India share price ended 13.32 per cent higher at Rs 172.75 on May 27, 2026, compared with the previous close of Rs 152.45, after its wholly owned subsidiary Antara Senior Living announced occupancy certificate approval for its Noida project.

Antara receives occupancy certificate for Noida project

Antara Senior Living Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Max India Ltd, announced that its joint venture company, Contend Builders Private Limited, has received a partial Occupancy Certificate (OC) for its senior living community located at Sector 150, Noida.

The approval covers three towers comprising 340 units in Phase I of the project, enabling around 340 senior families to take possession of their homes.

The company stated that the partial occupancy certificate unlocks approximately Rs 150 crore in receivables that were contingent on possession.

Phase I revenue stands at Rs 550 crore

The total development spans around 12 lakh sq. ft., of which Phase I accounts for nearly 7.45 lakh sq. ft., while the remaining 4.55 lakh sq. ft. falls under Phase II.

According to the company, total revenue for Phase I stands at approximately Rs 550 crore, while Phase II is expected to generate around Rs 800 crore revenue.

The company added that it will actively pursue revalidation of approvals for Phase II following commencement of possession in the first phase.

Sector-wide compliance issue resolved

The company stated that the occupancy certificate had remained pending due to a sector-wide requirement related to completion of shared sports facilities across Sector 150, Noida.

Antara stated that it had completed its designated contribution and payment obligations related to the sports facilities and subsequently approached the Noida Authority and courts, including the Hon’ble Supreme Court of India, seeking grant of occupancy certificate based on compliance fulfilment.

Management commentary

Rajit Mehta, MD & CEO, Antara Senior Care, said, “This is a very welcome step by the Noida authorities. We would want to thank the authorities for granting this and the Hon’ble Supreme Court for supporting our requests. The residents are all seniors who have booked units at Antara Noida with great interest and expectations. Our team is actively reviewing the conditions laid down in the OC, and we expect to start the process of grant of possession to the residents very soon.”
