Sahara’s Legendary Properties Slated For Adani’s Grab! (Oics: Instagram)
Adani Group Set to Acquire Sahara Properties
It’s official (well, almost): the mighty Adani Group is all set to take over a major chunk of Sahara Group’s assets, but only if the Supreme Court gives the green signal.
According to some media reports, Sahara submitted a term sheet to the Court on September 6, 2025, offering more than 88 properties in one mega deal. We’re talking about big names here- Aamby Valley Township in Maharashtra and the iconic Sahara Star Hotel near Mumbai airport are just the beginning.
But before we dive into what’s next, let’s rewind a little. There was a time when Sahara wasn’t just a company- it was an empire. In Lucknow, Sahara wasn’t just famous, it was everything. People say the city’s economy was practically running on Sahara’s payroll. From luxury hospitals to malls, new-age estates, and lifestyle upgrades for the common man, Sahara transformed how people in Uttar Pradesh, especially Lucknow, lived. It created thousands of jobs and gave hope where there was none.
At its peak, Sahara was more than what Adani is today, at least in the emotional economy of the people. Despite its legal troubles and scandals, many old-time Lucknowites still speak of Sahara with pride, remembering it as the reason their families thrived.
Now, with Adani stepping in to take over what’s left, this marks not just a deal, it’s the final chapter in the rise and fall of a once-mighty ecosystem. A takeover filled with power, nostalgia, and maybe, redemption.
The assets being sold include:
At its peak, the Sahara Group owned:
Most of these assets have been seized, sold, or are under legal proceedings.
In its petition, Sahara Group invoked Article 142 of the Constitution and asked the Supreme Court to:
This is a highly sensitive deal, and the financials will be kept under lock and key, only the Supreme Court will be provided with the financials, sealed and confidential. According to findings by Some Publisgers and media reprots, Adani will need to deposit the payment into the SEBI–Sahara refund account or any other account as determined by the court. No cherry-picking of properties here, the court wants all 88+ properties sold as a single large package, not individually. The next court appearance is a major one on October 14, 2025, when the judges may direct the money to be deposited straight into that refund account. Wait, it’s a VERY high-stakes game!
