Property developer Sunteck Realty Ltd plans to invest around Rs 6,000 crore to develop three large affordable housing projects spread over 250 acre in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) over the next five to six years. Sunteck has ventured into the affordable housing sector through its luxury brand Sunteck World. Two out of the three projects are spread over 100 acre land parcels in Vasind and Vasai near Mumbai and were acquired during the pandemic, while 150 acres is part of the company's Naigaon project. The developer has already started construction in Naigaon on around 18 acre for the project's first two phases. The new projects in Vasind and Vasai apart from new phases in Naigaon will be financed through customer advances from pre-sales and construction finance in line with the funding strategy deployed for the first two phases, Sunteck said.Make in Steel 202124 February Click for event info4th Indian Cement Review Conference 202117-18 March Click for event info Sunteck had acquired a 50-acre project in Vasai with a development potential of around 4.5 million sq ft.
