Shahrukhz Residences by Danube Dubai Maritime City

Shahrukhz Residences is the residential project Danube Properties is preparing in Dubai Maritime City, the freehold peninsula between Port Rashid and the Dubai Drydocks. It shares a name with Shahrukhz by Danube, the 55-storey office tower on Sheikh Zayed Road that Danube launched with Shah Rukh Khan in December 2025 and sold out on its first day. Some listings, including the one we started from, file the residences under Sheikh Zayed Road; that address belongs to the office tower. The homes are in Maritime City.

The project is at pre-launch. Broker pages report expressions of interest from about AED 25,000 (about Rs 6.44 lakh), but Danube has not released a price list, unit sizes, a payment plan or a handover date, so this page prints the price as "on call" rather than guess one. Below is what can be checked, what is only reported, and Danube's two priced towers nearby. Every Dubai project we track is in the Dubai section, and the full list is on our projects page.

At a glance

Price and unit pricing

Two buildings called Shahrukhz

Searches for "Shahrukh by Danube" mix the two projects, so here they are side by side.

The office tower's sell-out - about Rs 5,000 crore in a day, as Indian business papers reported it - is why the Shahrukh by Danube sell out story is so widely searched. It tells you demand for the brand was strong. It tells you nothing about what a Shahrukhz Danube apartment price will be, because offices on Sheikh Zayed Road and homes in Maritime City are different markets.

What Danube's Maritime City homes cost

With no price list, the useful benchmark is Danube's own projects in the same district. These are the prices our pages on them record; they are not prices for Shahrukhz Residences.

Oceanz launched at about AED 2,350 to 2,560 per sq ft and Breez, a 60-storey furnished tower, at roughly AED 3,100 or more. District rates are reported two ways: one 2026 note puts Maritime City apartments at AED 1,400 to 2,200 per sq ft, others at about AED 3,021. A new Danube project in this district launched in 2026 is unlikely to undercut its own earlier towers, but that is a reading of the pattern, not a price.

The scale figures, and why we doubt them

Broker pages describe the residences as about 1,250 homes in three towers, 44 residential floors above a six-level podium, worth more than AED 2.5 billion. Those are the same three numbers Danube announced for Oceanz - a Dh2.5 billion project of three towers and about 1,250 homes. They may be coincidence, or they may have been copied across. Until Danube publishes its own figures, treat them as unconfirmed. Unit types are reported two ways as well: studios to 2 BHK on some pages, and 1 to 3 BHK on a microsite that calls the project "Danube By Shahrukhz 2".

Payment plan and total cost

No payment plan has been released. What exists is an expression of interest, reported from about AED 25,000. An EOI holds your place in the queue for the launch; it is not a booking. There is no SPA behind it, no unit, no Oqood registration with the DLD and no escrow account it is paid into. Ask in writing whether it is refundable, who receives it, and whether it is credited against the booking amount if you go ahead.

For a sense of what Danube offers here, its two launched Maritime City projects both used its 1% monthly structure. Oceanz runs 65/35, with 35% paid over 35 months after handover. Breez launched on 10% at booking, 60% during construction and 30% at handover, or at 1% a month for 30 months after it. Our note on Dubai payment plans explains these splits.

The fees on top are set by the DLD, not the developer, so they can be worked through now for every AED 1 million of whatever price is released:

There is no VAT on a residential sale in the UAE and no annual property tax. The running cost is the service charge, and no rate is published for Maritime City or for this project. Ask for the first-year budget in writing when the price list comes out.

Location and connectivity

Dubai Maritime City is a reclaimed peninsula off Al Mina, with Port Rashid and Mina Rashid behind it and the Dubai Drydocks on the other side. Sheikh Rashid Road and Al Mina Road are the routes in and out. Other projects in the district quote about 15 to 20 minutes by car to Downtown Dubai and DXB, and Jumeirah 1 and La Mer beach are a short drive west. There is no Metro station inside the district; the nearest are Green Line stations on the Bur Dubai side.

The appeal is water on three sides, close to old Dubai, the Creek and Jumeirah. The catch is that the district is still being built: Danube alone has Oceanz 1, 2 and 3 and Breez rising there, other developers have towers under way, and shops, schools and clinics are still to come. Searches for Danube Maritime City usually mean Oceanz or Breez; Shahrukhz Residences would be Danube's fifth project here, and a lot of Danube stock will reach one rental market between 2027 and 2030.

Amenities and specifications

Danube has published nothing. Broker pages say the six-level podium will carry parking and community facilities and advertise a long amenity list, but without a brochure or floor plan none of it can be checked. Breez next door is sold fully furnished; whether the residences follow suit is unknown. Final specification as per the SPA, when there is one.

About the developer

Danube Properties is the real-estate arm of the Danube Group, the building-materials business founded by Rizwan Sajan, and it has built in Dubai since 2014 on small units and 1% monthly plans. Dubai Land Department records show 20 completed projects and 8,230 units delivered; Danube's own count is 28 projects delivered by mid-2025 across more than 41 launched. Pearlz was handed over six months early, and Opalz in April 2025 was its third early completion in a row. Its other Dubai projects are on the Danube Dubai page.

The other side of that record is volume: about 22 active projects of 18,202 units at roughly 26% average progress, and one developer index scores its delivery reliability at 44%. Shah Rukh Khan is the brand's face, not its builder; the owner and seller of every Shahrukhz unit is Danube.

For Indian buyers

Ownership. Dubai Maritime City is a freehold area open to all nationalities, and the DLD issues the title deed in the buyer's name at handover. Pre-launch events for Danube's next Maritime City project were advertised in Gurugram in September 2026; an event is a sales meeting, not a launch, so sign nothing there without a DLD project number.

Sending the money. Each resident Indian can remit USD 250,000 per financial year under the RBI's Liberalised Remittance Scheme, so a couple can send USD 500,000. An EOI of about AED 25,000 is roughly USD 6,800. TCS of 20% on remittances above Rs 10 lakh a year is adjusted against your income tax. Pay only to the developer's own account, and keep the bank's remittance record for the Schedule FA disclosure later.

Golden Visa. The UAE's 10-year Golden Visa needs AED 2 million of property. Whether any unit here clears it depends on a price list that does not exist yet; at Breez next door the 1 BHK sat just under the line and the 2 BHK well above. Our Golden Visa guide covers how off-plan units are treated.

Rent and tax. Maritime City gross yields are quoted at 6 to 7.5% on 2025 rents, but a building finishing in 2030 will let into a district with far more supply than today. The UAE does not tax the rent; an Indian tax resident declares it in India with the 30% standard deduction and reports the flat as a foreign asset. Our guide to buying in Dubai from India covers the steps.

Pros

• Danube has delivered 20 projects on DLD records and has finished several early
• Dubai Maritime City is freehold, on the water and close to Bur Dubai, Downtown and Jumeirah
• Pre-launch buyers usually get first pick of units and the launch price list
• An expression of interest reported from about AED 25,000 lets you hold a place without committing to a unit
• Danube's 1% monthly plans, used on its other Maritime City towers, spread the payments thin

Cons

• No price, unit size, payment plan, DLD project number or handover date has been released
• The scale figures in circulation are the same as Oceanz's, so they may be borrowed rather than announced
• The name is shared with a sold-out office tower on Sheikh Zayed Road, which confuses listings and searches
• Maritime City is still a construction site: Danube alone has four towers rising there, beside other developers' projects
• No Metro station in the district
• A 2030 handover is a long wait, and Danube has 22 projects in progress at once

Who this is for

• Buyers who already want Dubai Maritime City and are happy to wait for the price list
• Investors who know Danube's 1% plans and want first choice of units at launch
• Buyers who can keep an expression-of-interest deposit at risk if they later walk away

Who should look elsewhere

• Anyone who wants to see a price, a floor plan and a DLD number before paying anything
• Buyers who need a home before 2030
• Golden Visa buyers who need a confirmed AED 2 million unit now
• Buyers who were sold the Sheikh Zayed Road tower and are being offered this instead without being told

Our verdict

Shahrukhz Residences is a name, a district and a developer, and not yet much more. The location is clear once you separate it from the office tower: Dubai Maritime City, beside Oceanz and Breez. The only scale figures in circulation - three towers, about 1,250 homes, AED 2.5 billion - are exactly Oceanz's, which makes us doubt they were announced for this project at all. Danube's record is real, but any price, size or yield quoted for these residences today is a guess.

Wait for the launch. If you want Danube in Maritime City now, Oceanz and Breez have prices, plans and handover dates you can check. If you want this project, an expression of interest is the most you should pay before the price list, the SPA, the DLD project number and the escrow account exist.

Talk to Realty Hunting when Danube releases the Shahrukhz Residences price list; we will send the official figures, the payment plan and the DLD details as soon as they are out.
