Appu Ghar a.k.a Oysters Water Park was a one million square foot, beach-themed, water park in Gurgaon in the Indian state of Haryana. It offered 15 water rides and banquet facilities for up to 3,500 guests. [1] [2] [3] It is owned by EOD Amusement Pvt. Limited and opened in 2014 after the original Appu Ghar amusement park of the company that was operating in nearby Delhi's Pragati Maidan, closed down in 2008. [4] [5]

Contents

In 2022, lease authorities sealed the park due to lease dues and penalties amounting to several crores of rupees remaining unpaid by the owner [6] . In November 2025, the Municipal Corporation of Gurgaon (MCG) sealed it again because of unpaid property-tax dues exceeding Rs.7.43 crore [7] .

As of January 2026, Appu Ghar isn't functioning. According to available information it is currently insolvent [3] , and under resolution processing for insolvency (Corporate Insolvency Resolution Process, CIRP [8] ) instituted by the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Board of India (IBBI) [8] .

Consequently, to the disappointment of millions of fans, it is unlikely to open again.
