South Mumbai's Elite: 6 Indian Billionaires and Their Luxurious Residences

South Mumbai is a posh address. Set on the southern tip of India’s financial capital, Mumbai, Maharashtra, the region is an iconic real estate market which also has a heritage appeal. It is a place where land is scarce, and sea-views are epic! The ultra-premium pricing can’t be compared. For India’s richest billionaires, having a private residence in South Mumbai is a status symbol. People like Mukesh Ambani, Radhakishan Damani, and Sajjan Jindal, among others, call South Mumbai their home.

Let’s have a look at six billionaires who have private residences in South Mumbai:

Mukesh Ambani – Antilia, Altamount Road Situated on Altamount Road in South Mumbai, Antilia needs no introduction. It is not only South Mumbai’s but India’s most renowned skyscraper mansion. This spectacular 27-storey residence is owned by one of the world’s biggest industrialists, Mukesh Ambani, chairman of Reliance Industries. The house was completed in 2010 and since then, the Ambani residence continues to attract travellers from all over, as it has become more of a tourist attraction in the city. It is among the world’s priciest homes valued at around US $4–4.6 billion in 2023.

Radhakishan Damani – Malabar Hill Estate Radhakishan Damani, founder of Avenue Supermarts (DMart), is a billionaire investor who also owns one of South Mumbai’s most expensive bungalows.
