Adani Group has secured a prime land parcel in the prestigious Carmichael Road area of South Mumbai for over Rs 170 crore. The acquisition, executed through its subsidiary Mah-Hill Properties, covers a sprawling 1.1-acre plot, currently home to a 2,760 sq ft residential cottage. This deal, finalized on March 27, 2025, also saw the buyer paying over Rs 10.46 crore in stamp duty, showed documents accessed by property consulting firm CRE Matrix.
The land, one of the few large freehold plots available in the exclusive Malabar Hill locality, holds immense potential, though the intended development remains unclear.
Carmichael Road, renowned for its luxury residences and proximity to major business hubs, remains one of India’s most coveted addresses, making this acquisition a strategic investment in Mumbai’s real estate market.
According to registration documents sourced by CRE Matrix, Behram Nowrosji Gamadia, who inherited the property that goes back to the early part of the 20th century, sold the 4,500 sq m plot to Mah-Hill.
