It also set aside the environmental clearances given by the authorities for the project.
Sotheby's International Realty, the luxury real estate arm of the auction house Sotheby's, is coming to India. As part of its expansion plan, the company will be setting up its first office in Mumbai. It will move forward and set up offices in Bengaluru, Goa, Chennai, Pune and Kolkata.
