Godrej Properties has acquired a land parcel covering eight point five acres in Mahalunge on the outskirts of Pune, the company announced on 30 January 2026. The acquisition adds to the developer's land bank in a region that has seen steady residential activity in recent years. The company said the site will be evaluated for potential residential and mixed use development as planning progresses.
