Risland will develop 160 units in the project besides one tower for economically weaker section. The project will be launched for sale next month in a price range of Rs 7-12 crore for an apartment. The rates of penthouse will be Rs 22-25 crore.

There are very limited number of housing projects being developed in the national capital. Realty major DLF has completed a residential project and is constructing another at Moti Nagar here. Parsvnath Developers has one project at Civil Lines and the Unity group is developing one at Karol Bagh.

Risland is looking to develop more real estate projects in Delhi-NCR and other parts of the country and is in talks with land owners and other builders, company's assistant president, design management, Prashant Mahajan said.

Globally, Risland is developing 10 projects in Thailand, the US, Indonesia, and India.
