Realty developer K Raheja Corp has entered into an agreement to acquire a 5.75-acre parcel of land, including existing structures, in the eastern district of Kandivali, Mumbai, for a consideration of approximately ₹466 crore, according to documents accessed by CRE Matrix.
A subsidiary of the company, K Raheja Corp Real Estate, entered into an agreement with Global e-Service, the successor entity to The New Vinod Silk Mills, to purchase the land parcel and the building known as Vinod House.
The documents state that the entire time needed to finish the transaction will impact the consideration value. For instance, the entire consideration value will be ₹422 crore if the transaction is finalized between November 2025 and January 2026. However, the consideration value will increase to ₹466 crore, if the transaction is completed by the maximum date of December 2029.
The developer paid a stamp duty of ₹31.74 crore to register the land acquisition agreement signed on December 22nd. K Raheja Corp Real Estate plans to develop a luxury residential project on the acquired plot and is seeking necessary approvals from Mumbai’s civic authorities.
K Raheja Corp has made an initial payment of ₹210 crore to Global e-Service. The remaining payment will be made upon receiving approval from the civic authority. The agreement stipulates a five-year timeframe for the developer to obtain the necessary permissions.
This acquisition marks the fourth property purchase by K Raheja Corp in recent months. Last month, the developer acquired two prominent properties: Bayside Mall, an early entrant in India’s shopping mall scene, and Popular Press Building, spanning over half an acre in South Mumbai’s Tardeo area, for a combined transaction value exceeding ₹ 355 crore.
