Arkade Developers, a Mumbai-based real estate developer, has bought a 6.28-acre freehold land parcel in Thane, a part of the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), for ₹172.48 crore, including stamp duty.

Thane, with its rapidly evolving infrastructure including upcoming metro lines and other major projects, is emerging as a key growth hub for residential and commercial projects. Our strategy is aligned with the overall market trend towards luxury housing.”

 

Further, Jain stated that during the financial year 2025 (FY25), the company also acquired a 4-acre land parcel in Goregaon, which was previously leased to Filmistan. The parcel has an estimated GDV of ₹3,000 crore.
