The multinational automotive components manufacturer has bought three office units on the 13th floor of One BKC — a commercial building in Mumbai’s one of the busiest central business districts. The office spans an area of 6,986 square feet with a terrace of 122 square feet.
The units that have been purchased are 1301A, 1301B, and 1318. Unit 1301A spans 1,793 square feet and is worth ₹25.44 crore. Unit 1301B has an area of 2,726 square feet and is worth ₹38.68 crore, while unit 1318 is spread across 2,467 square feet and has been purchased for ₹35.86 crore, the sources said.
The company plans to use the space for front office operations.
Samvardhana Motherson International’s registered office is unit 705, C Wing, One BKC. For the new purchase, the company has executed and registered three separate agreements, one per unit.
According to sources, JLL, a real estate consultancy firm, was the transaction advisor for the deal. JLL refused to comment on the deal.
Additionally, India’s office segment has been witnessing an upcycle with 2025 emerging to be a record-breaking year with an all-time high leasing, continuing the post-Covid absorption momentum in the sector despite global uncertainties and information technology (IT) layoffs.
Meanwhile, BKC is the costliest office micro-market in India.
The average rent in One BKC stood at around ₹314.72 per square foot per month in November 2025 against the average office rent of ₹261 in BKC overall in September 2025 (up by about 2.75 per cent year-on-year), according to real estate data analytics firms.
The micro-market houses offices of several multinational conglomerates, including Google, Apple, and BNP Paribas, with monthly rentals exceeding ₹800 per square foot in some cases.
The area is soon going to see a built-to-suit global capability centre (GCC) campus for JP Morgan built by Brookfield with 1-billion-dollar investment.
