K Raheja signs deal for 2.5-acre Mumbai Worli land development

Realty developer K Raheja Corp intends to transform a 2.5-acre land parcel in Mumbai?s Worli into a luxury residential project, anticipating revenue potential exceeding Rs 20 billion.

It was revealed by these sources that a revenue share structure has been finalised between the developer?s residential platform and the landlord for the proposed joint development. According to the arrangement, K Raheja Corp will receive a 57% revenue share, while the remaining 43% will be allocated to the landlord.

Under the terms of this agreement, the developer will assume responsibility for all planning, design, approvals, execution, branding, and sales efforts. The agreement specifies that K Raheja Corp is expected to complete the project within a span of five years.

One of the aforementioned individuals stated that the entire project is estimated to encompass a development potential of approximately 3 lakh sq ft carpet area. The agreement pertaining to the joint development was reportedly registered on Wednesday.

It was noted that approximately one-third of the land parcel currently accommodates an office building spanning over 40,000 sq ft of leased space, while the remainder comprises some commercial outlets alongside vacant portions. Some portion of the land is freehold, while others are leasehold, necessitating approval from the Maharashtra Housing & Area Development Authority (MHADA).

Over the preceding two years, there has been a notable upsurge in demand and sales activity within the Indian luxury housing market across the nation's top eight cities.

As per a JLL India analysis, the luxury property market in India witnessed a growth of over 1.5 times in the sales value of luxury homes priced at Rs 500 million and above, reaching Rs 4,319 crore in 2023 compared to Rs 28.59 billion in 2022.

This increase in sales value was accompanied by a rise in the number of transactions, with at least 45 luxury homes sold in 2023 compared to 29 homes sold in the previous year. Of these transactions, 58% comprised apartments, while the remaining 42% constituted bungalows.
