Built in 1388 by Junan Shah (son of Malik Maqbul), his tomb(Tughluq tombs) [16][17][18] was the first octagonal mausoleum to be built in Delhi. The only other octagonal mausoleum that pre-dates this tomb in the Indian subcontinent is the Tomb of Shah Rukn-i Alam in Multan. The mausoleum occupies the northwestern corner of Nizamuddin West.[19] The plan is composed of an octagonal burial chamber wrapped by a larger octagonal veranda.
