Latest Land Prices in Mumbai MMRDA Region

The land parcel being sold by Tata Steel is located in Borivali (a western suburb of Mumbai). The total land size is 25 acres with a development potential of 2.5-4msf depending on the availability of public car parking. If the bidding settles at the current price of Rs11.55bn, and assuming a selling price of Rs12,000/sf, cost of construction of Rs4,000/sf and sales cycle of 5 years, we estimate IRRs for the project to be 12% (if saleable area is 2.5msf) or 23% (if saleable area is 4msf).

Paucity of clean title land in Mumbai has been keeping bidding prices high. Even in this deal, six developers like Tata Housing, Indiabulls, Lodha, Kalpataru, Peninsula Land and Oberoi have been participating. The last few land deals in Mumbai (details on pg2) indicate that land prices continue to rise across the city. The physical market in Mumbai continues to remain weak due to high prices and uncertain macroeconomic environment.
