DLF Receives RERA Approval for Andheri Project; Monsoon Delays Launch

DLF will launch 416 apartments across four towers in the first phase of the project, according to MahaRERA data. The project, named The Westpark, is located in Andheri's Oshiwara neighborhood and is being executed under a slum rehabilitation scheme. DLF is executing the free sale component, while the land clearance and rehabilitation duties will be undertaken by the Trident Group, DLF's partner in the project.
However, the launch timeline of the project remains uncertain, as the onset of rains in Mumbai may push back DLF's original plan to bring the project to the market by the end of the current month or the beginning of July. Market sources indicate that the company is currently in talks with stakeholders such as sales channel partners to determine the ideal launch period. Monsoon is generally considered a weak period for residential real estate sales.
DLF has received approval to build up to 44 floors in each tower, of which 37 will be residential, while the remaining floors will be dedicated to various services. When reached, a spokesperson for DLF declined to comment on the specifics of the project timeline.
This project marks DLF's second innings in the Mumbai market. While the company had owned land parcels in Mumbai, mainly in the island city, it was forced to sell those and retreat from the market around a decade back due to a debt crisis. After consolidating its position in Gurugram, Delhi NCR, and Chandigarh markets, DLF has once again looked at India's largest housing market for business development.
Unlike the luxury-led model in its core Gurugram market, DLF is entering the Mumbai market with a premium ticket size. The units on offer are expected to be priced between Rs 5.50 crore and Rs 7.50 crore. Aakash Ohri, DLF's chief business officer, told reporters in March that the company chose Andheri over the island city for its Mumbai debut due to the suburb’s cosmopolitan character, which includes business people, professionals, and figures from the entertainment industry.
The Westpark is expected to cater to a diverse range of buyers, leveraging DLF's expertise in premium real estate development. The project's location in Andheri, a rapidly developing suburb with strong infrastructure and connectivity, is expected to attract a significant number of homebuyers and investors.
