Property developer Oxley Holdings on Friday requested for a trading halt pending the release of an announcement.
Singapore-listed firm is in the advanced stages of stitching up a deal to buy Chevron House in Raffles Place for about S$660 million, Business Times reported.
The price is believed to be around S$660 million or S$2,526 per square foot on the property's existing net lettable area (NLA) of 261,280 sq ft, the report said.
