About Kushal Pal Singh

Property baron Kushal Pal Singh left an army posting in 1961 to join DLF, a company started by his father-in-law in 1946.

Singh later built DLF City in Gurgaon, his showpiece township on the outskirts of Delhi, by acquiring land from farmers.

Today, Delhi-headquartered DLF, run by his son Rajiv as chairman, is India's biggest listed property firm by market cap.

In 2017, Singh sold his one-third stake in DLF's rental arm to GIC, Singapore's sovereign wealth fund, for $1.9 billion.

Singh stepped down as chairman after more than five decades in that position, in 2020. He's now chairman emeritus of DLF and lives mostly between London and Dubai.
