Real Estate Mumbai:With Delhi-NCR-based DLF launching its first project in Mumbai, Andheri West, one of the city’s most densely populated western suburbs, has come into the spotlight.

In the first phase, apartments are priced between ₹40,000 and ₹48,000 per sq ft.
Andheri is one of Mumbai’s largest and most densely populated suburbs, with development dating back to as early as 1915. Located in the western part of the city, it is home to one of India’s busiest railway stations and has long played a key role as a major industrial hub. According to real estate consultancy ANAROCK Group, both Andheri East and West feature a mix of industrial and commercial centers. However, the two parts differ significantly in their character and property profiles.
Andheri West is primarily residential and known for its upscale communities, with a dominance of luxury properties and high real estate prices. In contrast, Andheri East is a well-established commercial and industrial zone that also houses several middle-class residential colonies. Property prices in Andheri East are generally more affordable compared to the more premium Andheri West.
Andheri West has seen the launch of as many as 5,700 units between 2019 to Q1 2025. Average residential prices at Andheri West have seen a 52% appreciation between 2019 to Q1 2025, from approximately ₹31,253 per sq ft as on 2019 to ₹47,350 per sq ft on carpet area as of Q1 2025-end, according to Rajkumar Singh, head, Residential Services (West), ANAROCK Group. In terms of rentals, a standard 2 BHK flat of size 700-800 sq. ft. area commands rentals anywhere between ₹60,000 to ₹80,000 per month.
Property registrations in Andheri West have shown a generally upward trend over the past few years. In 2020, the number of residential registrations in the primary market stood at 829, which more than doubled in 2021 to 1,718, likely driven by post-pandemic recovery and stamp duty incentives. In 2022, registrations moderated slightly to 1,529 before rising again to 1,633 in 2023. The momentum continued into 2024, with registrations reaching 1,741, marking the highest in the five-year period.
In terms of supply, there has been a moderation in the number of launches in the Andheri West real estate market. In 2020, 623 projects were launched, followed by a sharp surge in 2021, when launches peaked at 1,994 units. This upward momentum continued in 2022, which recorded the highest number of launches in the period at 2,132 units, possibly driven by revived developer confidence and strong buyer demand, according to CRE Matrix data.
However, the pace of new launches began to taper in 2023, with 1,489 units hitting the market, and dropped further to 1,008 units in 2024. As of March 2025, 302 units have been launched, suggesting a more cautious and calibrated approach by developers amid evolving market conditions, the data said.

Andheri West remains one of Mumbai’s most strategically positioned micro-markets, supported by infrastructure and strong connectivity. The locality benefits from proximity to key business districts such as Bandra-Kurla Complex (BKC) and SEEPZ and convenient access to the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport in Mumbai. Andheri, one of Mumbai's central points, has four operational Metro corridors crossing different parts of the area. The four different Metro lines connect Andheri to the east, south, and northern parts of the city.
In terms of commercial real estate, the area has transformed into a prominent commercial hub, housing a mix of corporate offices, IT parks, co-working spaces, and high streets, malls, and other retail developments, adding to its vibrancy and livability. Its significance is further underscored by the presence of the film and media industry, with several production houses and studios based in the vicinity, making it a preferred destination for professionals from the creative and entertainment sectors as well.
According to Knight Frank India, a real estate consultancy firm, Andheri West is termed as a secondary business district (SBD), and it constitutes 20% to 30% of the total volume of commercial office space transactions in the city of Mumbai.
