In September 2015, a Mumbai-based Carnival Group had bought Elante Mall, at a cost of Rs 1,785 crore. It was one of the biggest deals for a single real estate or property in India at the time.
Later on, on July 28, 2017, Nexus Malls, a subsidiary of US-based global investment firm The Blackstone Group, bought Elante Mall. However, the amount was never disclosed. This was the second time that the Elante Mall was sold in two years.
