Mumbai's BKC Block E-G: Global FSI Upgrade to Four

01 Feb 2024 CW Team

Mumbai's prestigious Bandra-Kurla Complex (BKC) is poised for a significant development as Block E-G is slated to receive a global Floor Space Index (FSI) of four. This enhancement underscores the city's commitment to fostering urban growth and expanding business infrastructure in key commercial hubs.

The decision to grant a global FSI of four to Block E-G aligns with Mumbai's broader urban development strategy. The increased FSI allows for more extensive construction and development in the designated area, facilitating the creation of modern, high-rise structures that cater to the needs of businesses and residents.

BKC has established itself as a prominent business district, and the upgrade in FSI for Block E-G is expected to further elevate its stature. The move is in line with Mumbai's vision of creating dynamic and world-class urban spaces, fostering economic activities and attracting global investments.

The global FSI upgrade is likely to spur real estate development, stimulate economic growth, and contribute to the city's evolving skyline. Mumbai's proactive approach to urban planning and infrastructure development positions it as a key player in India's real estate landscape, offering enhanced opportunities for businesses and residents alike.
