New York-based Citigroup Property Investors (CPI) will invest around $120 mn in Bangalore-based Nitesh Estates' luxury hotels. CPI would partner with Nitesh Estates on the latter’s forthcoming hotel properties. CPI reportedly also has committed itself to 30% in the group's recently announced $100 mn 5-star hotel property on Bangalore's Residency Road. Nitesh Estates is planning to build four more hotels in Goa, Chennai, Hyderabad and Kochi. The company is believed to have acquired land in Goa and is in the process of acquiring land in other locations. CPI has already invested close to $250 mn in India and plans to invest a further $500 mn. Of this, around 40% is expected to be invested in hotels and service apartments. Nitesh Estates had earlier received a PE funding of $100 mn from New York-based Siachen Capital for an undisclosed stake and was also known to have divested a 25% stake for $55-60 mn to New York-based hedge fund Och-Ziff Capital Management Group.
