MGM Healthcare expands in Chennai with land purchase from Shriram Properties

 MGM Healthcare Private Limited, a large healthcare and educational group, continues to expand its presence in South India by acquiring a 3.9-acre land parcel from Shriram Properties Limited (SPL) in Chennai, sources said. The deal value is ₹93 crore. Both companies declined to comment.

Shriram Properties, through its wholly-owned subsidiary SPL Shelters Private Limited, owned the 3.9-acre piece of land, which was approved to develop a retail space. The land parcel is located on GST Road. It is adjacent to a 4 million sq ft (MSF) office complex that is already fully operational and a 2 MSF residential complex (called Shriram Park 63), offering the potential for retail/other commercial development, according to a recent company release.
