K Raheja Corp Shells Out Rs 466 Crore for 5.7 Acres in Mumbai's Kandivali

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.

Mahindra and Mahindra Ltd Sells 20.5 Acres Land in Kandivali Area for Rs.210 Crore

Mahindra and Mahindra

Automobile manufacturer Mahindra and Mahindra Limited has sold 20.5 acres of land in Kandivali, Mumbai for Rs.210 crore. As per the documents accessed by CRE Matrix, the buyer is Blueprintify Properties Pvt Ltd, a subsidiary of Pune-based real estate firm Rucha Group. The deal was registered on 24th July 2024 and the stamp duty paid was Rs.13.41 crore.

Mahindra & Mahindra Limited has sold non-agricultural land in the Kandivali area. The company has an automobile manufacturing facility nearby. The property faces Sanjay Gandhi National Park (SGNP) on one side and is connected to the Western Express Highway (WEH) on the other. 

This is one of the largest land purchases in the western suburbs this year. The Kandivali East micro-market, where the land is located, commands high residential segment rates, ranging from Rs.25,000 to Rs.35,000 per square foot. This deal demonstrates the surge in demand for land in this bustling suburban area.

This land deal is not Mahindra & Mahindra’s first significant purchase in Kandivali. Back in February 2022, Mahindra Lifespaces, the Mahindra Group’s real estate branch, bought about 9.24 acres from Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd for ₹365 crore. Following the success of its “Mahindra Roots” project, the business announced that this will be its second residential development in Kandivali, offering almost 1 million square feet of carpet space.

This series of transactions highlights Mahindra’s strategic focus on leveraging its land assets in Kandivali.
