26 Feb 2026 CW Team

Godrej Properties has entered a joint development agreement with an unnamed landowner to develop an 18-acre parcel in Thane, Mumbai, with an estimated revenue potential of Rs 75 bn. The regulatory filing stated that the project will be largely residential and forms part of the company's planned expansion in the region. The filing noted that the landowner was not named in the announcement.

The company said that it pursues growth by acquiring land outright as well as by entering into joint development arrangements with landowners to deliver housing projects. It added that strategic expansions in high-potential micro-markets are central to its growth strategy and focus on creating enduring value for homebuyers, according to the managing director and chief executive officer. The project is intended to leverage market demand in the surrounding areas.

Thane has evolved into one of the more attractive locations within the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), and the upcoming development will be the company's fourth project in Thane. The filing described Thane as a high-potential micro-market and indicated that the new scheme aims to meet diverse housing needs. The location is expected to benefit from existing infrastructure and connectivity improvements across the MMR.

Godrej Properties reported that its sales bookings rose 25 per cent to Rs 240.08 bn in the first nine months of the current fiscal and said it remained confident of meeting its full fiscal target of Rs 325 bn for 2025-26. The company pointed to its track record as one of the leading real estate developers in the country and framed the Thane project as consistent with that trajectory. The regulatory disclosure was filed in Mumbai as the company continues to expand its development pipeline.
