Ansal Plaza: The first mall in Delhi

The first mall to come up in Delhi, Ansal Plaza is located in Andrews Ganj on Khel Gaon Marg in South Delhi, right near post South Extension II Ring Road area. Built by Ansal Properties & Infrastructure Ltd, this mall came up on November 1, 1999. Apart from many major brands like Adidas, Shoppers Stop, Levi's, Music World, Marks & Spencer, Nike, Reebok and Club Mahindra having outlets at this mall, this is also the place where one can get everyday use items. There are also other outlets in garments and apparels, fashion accessories, jewellery, footwear, toys, lifestyle products etc. Furniture, electronics, arts etc are also available in this mall. Here items are available at affordable and discounted prices. This mall is also a good place for foodies with karaoke bars and restaurants such as McDonalds, Subway, Pizza Hut, Barista, etc. For those who are out to have a drink, places like Geoffrey’s Restaurant and Bar are ideal. Customers who get tired can have a stroll in the mall’s gardens.





Located in the heart of South Delhi, Ansal Plaza has a strong retailer base. Along with its location, loyalty of the end customers to these retailers is the important factor that has helped this mall to be popular. It is a splendid piece of modern architecture beautifully landscaped with greenery and fountains. Built in a circular fashion around an amphitheatre and with a stage at the centre, the mall’s 45-foot-high atrium with a French glass curtain wall prevents ultraviolet and other harmful radiations. Ansal Plaza is centrally air-conditioned, and is safe, clean, and hygienic. Many cultural events, flea markets, fashion shows and food festivals are held here regularly. This mall also conducts other events, promotions and marketing activities. Many have rated this mall to be excellent and have described their first experience here to be quite thrilling. This mall is open on all days of the week and its adequate parking space is fit for a large number of vehicles, thus taking care of the major problems of parking. The aim of the mall, according to its manager, is to have people get the feel of an overall experience of openness interspersed with innovative retail concepts. He further says that there are other plans of Ansal Plaza, which the customers can get to know in the coming days.

There may be competition building up to this mall, but it has been a leading mall and its experience is surely going to help in handling this competition. All credit goes to Sushil Ansal who brought the mall mania in our country.

The name Sushil Ansal does not need any introduction in the field of Real estate. Sushil Ansal is an iconic figure of his field and has changed the face of Real Estate in India. The Chairman of Ansal Properties & Infrastructure LTD (Ansal API) is the driving force in establishing the brand Ansal API. Mr. Sushil Ansal has had an illustrious career spanning over 50 years.
