Dubai Property Under 1 Crore: What That Budget Buys Right Now
Searching for Dubai property under 1 crore? Orven does not convert currencies. Here are the lowest published AED entry prices in the collection, so you can compare against your own bank's rate.
A crore is an Indian unit, ten million rupees, and no official source fixes a single AED equivalent for it: the rate moves with your bank or remittance provider on the day you transfer. So instead of converting, this answer works the other way around. Below are the lowest published entry prices in AED across the Orven collection in Dubai, so you can compare them against whatever your own 1 crore converts to on the day.
Why no conversion appears here
INR to AED moves daily, and a converted number published today would be wrong within days, possibly off by a meaningful margin on a seven-figure budget. Rather than print a number that goes stale, the approach here is to give you the real, developer-published AED prices and let you do the comparison with your bank's actual rate, or ask your adviser to run it for you with today's rate.
The lowest published entry prices in the collection
- Azizi Venice, Dubai South: from AED 550,000 for a studio, part of a large waterfront masterplan built around an 18-kilometre Crystal Lagoon.
- Astra Residences, Dubai South (developer: Dugasta): from AED 579,000, a low-rise building of 108 apartments with a pool, gym and landscaped gardens.
- Albero, Dubai Creek Harbour (developer: Emaar): from AED 1,813,888, a wider bedroom range from one to five bedrooms and penthouses.
| Project | Area | Entry price (AED) | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Azizi Venice | Dubai South | From 550,000 | Under construction |
| Astra Residences | Dubai South | From 579,000 | Off-plan |
| Albero | Dubai Creek Harbour | From 1,813,888 | Off-plan |
What "entry price" actually means
Each of these figures is the developer's published starting price for the smallest unit type at the time of verification, usually a studio or one-bedroom. A two- or three-bedroom unit in the same building costs more, and availability at the entry price can close quickly once a phase sells out. Treat the number as a floor for the building, not a guaranteed price for any specific layout you might want.
What else sits on top of the purchase price
Dubai Land Department registration runs at 4% of the purchase price on a completed sale, with a separate, fixed Oqood fee for an off-plan reservation confirmed at the contract stage. Neither figure should be derived from the crore conversion above; ask your adviser to quote both once a unit and its exact price are confirmed.

Financing a purchase from India
Bank financing for certain non-residents is possible in Dubai, always subject to the lender's own approval, and it is handled separately from any loan or facility you might have in India. No bank is guaranteed to approve a given profile, and no interest rate or loan-to-value ratio is quoted here: that detail comes from the lender itself, confirmed by your adviser once you have a target unit in mind.
Why Dubai South and Creek Harbour dominate the low end
Both areas carry Emaar and other master developers running large, phased masterplans, where studio and one-bedroom stock in newer towers tends to publish the lowest entry prices in the city. That is different from older, established districts such as Downtown Dubai or Palm Jumeirah, where entry prices for any unit type typically sit higher. If budget is the primary filter, these newer masterplan areas are usually where the lowest published numbers appear first.
Sending the funds once you have a number
Once a unit is reserved, funds typically move by bank transfer into the project's escrow account, in the currency and amount confirmed on the booking form, not as a lump "1 crore" wired in INR and converted on arrival. Your own bank or remittance provider handles the INR to AED conversion on its side, following its own compliance checks for the transfer; Orven does not process currency conversion itself. Budget a few extra days for larger international transfers to clear before a payment deadline, rather than assuming same-day arrival.
Next step with a confirmed number
Once you know your 1 crore in AED terms, using your own bank's rate on the day, send that figure along with your preferred unit type on WhatsApp at +971 52 776 1939 or to sales@orvenproperties.com.
