Social media rumors had recently claimed that real estate tycoon, Malik Riaz, was about to file for bankruptcy.
The cause behind the bankruptcy rumors was the Rs. 460 billion fine imposed by the Supreme Court on Malik Riaz’s Bahria Town in 2019.
Credible sources believe that @MalikRiaz_ is preparing to declare bankruptcy in Pakistan as the value of @BahriaTownOffic Pakistan is less than the 460 billion rupee fine imposed by the Supreme Court.

The rumors also claimed that property prices in all Bahria Towns across the country will plummet after the reported filing of bankruptcy.
However, Bahria Town has officially come forward, pacifying the nerves of concerned Bahria Town residents.
Taking to X, Bahria Town rejected the rumors and termed it as ‘malicious propaganda.’
“Bahria Town is one of the most prestigious Real Estate brands in Asia, firmly rooted in its commitment to contribute to the progress and economic development of Pakistan,” Bahria Town stated.

“Through past challenges, we have weathered adversity, and our resolve to uplift Pakistan remains unwavering. Insha’Allah, this commitment will endure,” the statement concluded.

property value at bahria already down to lowest long before because there is no buyer and countless sellers. recently i purchased semi constructed shop for 14 lacks where it’s dc value is 21 lac but there was no buyer for past 1 year same happening with the residential properties although dealers trying their best to mark the property much higher than its value to catch the fish but failing mostly.
Sooner or later this gonna happen. It’s a private limited liability company.
What Malik Riaz did to thousands of investors how he cheated them will have to pay the price in sha Allah.
