High-end properties in the iconic Worli sea face
The purchased properties are located in Naman Xana, a premium project by the Naman Group on Worli Sea Face. Neerav Parekh acquired a sprawling duplex apartment measuring 10,441 sq. ft. for ₹105 crore. This luxurious property, registered on December 5, includes six parking spaces and required a stamp duty payment of ₹6.30 crore.
Kalpana Parekh purchased a 7,104 sq. ft. apartment in the same project for ₹65 crore, with the registration completed on December 7. This apartment comes with four dedicated parking spaces and incurred a stamp duty of ₹3.25 crore.
Mumbai’s luxury housing market booms
Worli has established itself as Mumbai’s leading hotspot for luxury real estate. Its prime location, flanked by the Arabian Sea and landmarks like the Bandra-Worli Sea Link, makes it an aspirational address for high-net-worth individuals. Speaking about the area, Abhishek Kiran Gupta, CEO and Co-founder of CRE Matrix and IndexTap.com, said, “When we talk Mumbai luxury housing, it clearly screams Worli. Exclusive projects in this micro market trade at a 25-40% premium due to their aspirational quotient, location, development quality, and luxury amenities.”
Data from CBRE South Asia Pvt. Ltd.’s India Market Monitor Q3 2024 – Residential report highlights the growing demand for luxury housing. Between January and September 2024, sales of luxury units priced at ₹4 crore and above surged by 37.8% year-on-year, with total sales reaching 12,625 units compared to 9,160 in the same period last year.
Driving India’s real estate growth
Deals like these underline the booming demand for ultra-luxury housing in India. With high-profile investments in projects like Naman Xana, Mumbai continues to solidify its position as a hub for global luxury real estate. These developments not only contribute to the country’s economic growth but also enhance India’s image as a destination for premium living experiences.
