Set up in the year 1997 in Dubai, Emaar properties has witnesses a huge growth in just a decade and a half years of operations. While there have been many companies which have grown tremendously in their own sectors and within their local markets, Emaar properties has been an exceptional case in point considering that it not only conquered the local as well as international real estate markets but has also diversified to move beyond real estate.

As the investigations proceed, it is slowly being revealed that apart from the adopted name of the alleged scandal, the real estate giant had no role to play in the Emaar Scam or Emaar properties case.

The government agency which was involved in the Hyderabad project with the real estate company seems to have kept its partners in the dark about devaluing the land for vested interests.
