Emaar India Unit to Sell Shares in Coming Weeks, Chairman Says

Emaar Properties PJSC, the developer building the world’s tallest skyscraper in Dubai, plans an initial share offering in India “in a few weeks,” Chairman Mohammed Alabbar said.

“India has done extremely well for us, and that’s why we are going public in India, probably in a few weeks,” he said in an interview at the World Economic Forum in Dubai, where the company is based. “The banking system is solid and India is still a conservative environment that suits us well.”

New Delhi-based Emaar MGF Land Ltd. plans to raise 38.5 billion rupees ($800 million) in the offering. The unit, which scrapped a $1.64 billion initial public offering in February last year, had 29 residential and commercial projects under way at the end of August.
