The land parcels, numbered 96, 97, and 98, were bought as part of a project named 'A Alibaug' Phase-2, being developed by the House of Abhinandan Lodha (HoABL). The transactions were registered on October 7, 2025, with a registration fee of ₹90,000 and a stamp duty of ₹39.58 lakh. The individual plot values are as follows: Plot 96 for ₹2.78 crore, Plot 97 for ₹1.92 crore, and Plot 98 for ₹1.88 crore.
This is not the first time Bachchan has invested in Alibaug. In April 2024, he purchased a 10,000 sq ft land parcel in Alibaug for ₹10 crore from HoABL. This plot was part of the 'A Alibaug' project, a 20-acre plotted development launched in April 2023. Alibaug has been gaining traction as a real estate hotspot, particularly for Bollywood celebrities. Other notable figures who have invested in the area include Shah Rukh Khan’s daughter Suhana Khan, actor Kriti Sanon, and Kartik Aaryan.
Alibaug, a coastal town located around a three-hour drive from Mumbai and a two-hour drive from South Mumbai, has also become accessible via the Ro-Ro ferry, which takes less than an hour from South Mumbai. The town's popularity has attracted major real estate developers. Emaar India announced plans to build 84 villas across a 25-acre parcel, with each villa priced between ₹9 crore and ₹15 crore. Oberoi Realty has acquired 81 acres of land in Alibaug, with plans to develop a luxury hotel and branded residence villas. Additionally, Hirannandani Communities launched the first phase of its 225-acre integrated township project, Hiranandani Sands, in Alibaug on September 29, 2025. The company is investing ₹5,000 crore in the project, with an estimated gross development value (GDV) of ₹17,000 crore.
Amitabh Bachchan's real estate portfolio is extensive and includes properties in various prime locations. In January 2025, he sold a duplex apartment in Mumbai's Andheri area for ₹83 crore, according to property registration documents accessed by SquareYards. In January 2024, Bachchan purchased a land parcel from HoABL in Ayodhya as part of its project 'The Sarayu', a 7-star mixed-use enclave. The land parcel, valued at ₹14.5 crore, is intended for a home measuring around 10,000 square feet.
In 2023, Bachchan and his wife, Jaya Bachchan, gifted the Pratiksha bungalow, their first of five family homes in Juhu, to their daughter, Shweta Nanda. Pratiksha was purchased shortly after the success of the blockbuster Sholay in 1975. The Bachchan family also owns other properties in Juhu, including the Janak bungalow, which serves primarily as an office, and two other bungalows, Vatsa and Ammu, part of which was leased to Citibank and subsequently re-leased to the State Bank of India in 2021. In 2021, Bachchan sold the Sopaan bungalow in Gulmohar Park, New Delhi, for ₹23 crore to Avni Bader, CEO of Nezone group of companies. The 2,100-sq-ft house was registered in Teji Bachchan’s name, and his parents had lived there before moving to Pratiksha.
Alibaug's real estate market is flourishing, driven by its natural beauty, strategic location, and the influx of high-profile investors. The town's transformation from a weekend retreat to a potential extension of South Mumbai underscores its growing appeal. As more developers and celebrities invest in the area, Alibaug is poised to become one of Maharashtra's next real estate hotspots.
