Motherson Secures Prime Office Space in Mumbai’s BKC for ₹100 Crore
Samvardhana Motherson International, a leading multinational automotive components manufacturer, has made a significant real estate move by acquiring office space in Mumbai’s prime commercial micro-market, Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC), for approximately ₹100 crore. This acquisition underscores the strong corporate demand in the office real estate sector, particularly in one of Mumbai’s busiest central business districts.
The company has purchased three office units on the 13th floor of One BKC, a prominent commercial building in the heart of BKC. The total area of the acquired space is 6,986 square feet, including a 122-square-foot terrace. The units purchased are 1301A, 1301B, and 1318. Unit 1301A spans 1,793 square feet and is valued at ₹25.44 crore. Unit 1301B covers 2,726 square feet and is worth ₹38.68 crore, while unit 1318 measures 2,467 square feet and has been purchased for ₹35.86 crore.
Samvardhana Motherson plans to utilize the newly acquired space for its front office operations. The company’s registered office is currently located in unit 705, C Wing, One BKC. To formalize the purchase, Motherson has executed and registered three separate agreements, one for each unit.
India’s office segment has been experiencing a significant upcycle, with 2025 shaping up to be a record-breaking year for leasing. This trend continues the post-Covid absorption momentum in the sector, despite global uncertainties and IT layoffs. BKC, known as the costliest office micro-market in India, has seen average rents at One BKC reaching around ₹314.72 per square foot per month in November 2025, compared to an average office rent of ₹261 in BKC overall in September 2025, marking a 2.75% year-on-year increase.
Bandra Kurla Complex is home to several multinational conglomerates, including tech giants like Google and Apple, as well as financial institutions like BNP Paribas. Monthly rentals in some cases exceed ₹800 per square foot. The area is also set to witness the development of a built-to-suit global capability centre (GCC) campus for JP Morgan, with a substantial investment of $1 billion by Brookfield.
Samvardhana Motherson International’s strategic acquisition in BKC not only highlights the company’s commitment to its growth and expansion but also underscores the enduring appeal of prime real estate in Mumbai’s commercial hubs. The company’s plans to enhance its front office operations with this new space are expected to bolster its operational efficiency and client engagement.
