CIMIC Group company Leighton Asia has been awarded a contract by the Elan Group, one of India’s leading real estate developers, to deliver a luxury residential project in Gurugram.

The project, known as Elan The Emperor, is located in the same area where Leighton Asia is currently constructing an eight-tower development, Elan The Presidential, also for the Elan Group.

The new contract involves construction of 10 towers, each approximately 145 m high, across a built-up area of around 490,000 sq m.

“Securing further work for the Elan Group is a sign of Leighton Asia’s commitment to safety and operational excellence. We are pleased to be providing another premium residential project for the growing population of the region,” said Juan Santamaría, executive chairman of CIMIC Group.

The scope of work for this IGBC LEED Gold-targeted development includes civil and structural works and management of subcontractors. Construction is set to commence in September 2025, with completion slated for 2030.

“With more than two decades of on-the-ground experience in India, Leighton Asia takes pride in setting new benchmarks for quality and sustainability in large-scale residential projects,” said Brad Davey, managing director of Leighton Asia. “We are proud to be undertaking this prestigious project for the Elan Group.”
