Previous Land Deal in Mumbai:

Earlier this year, in January 2025, K Raheja Corp entered into a separate agreement to acquire a 5.75-acre land parcel in Mumbai’s Kandivali East for Rs 466 crore. The property, located on Ashok Chakravarty Road, was purchased from Global E-Service Pvt Ltd (formerly The New Vinod Silk Mills), and includes a building named Vinod House.

These back-to-back acquisitions indicate K Raheja Corp’s aggressive land banking strategy across key urban centres.
