The transaction, conducted under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) and overseen by the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT), follows Brookfield exercising its right of first refusal to match Bank of Baroda's winning bid, according to a report published in The Economic Times.
The report said that with this purchase, Brookfield now occupies approximately 250,000 sq ft across three contiguous floors in the same building. The additional space acquired by Brookfield was earlier owned by Jet Airways.
The deal also grants exclusive parking rights and transfers Jet Airways' seat on the building's management board to Brookfield, elevating its strategic influence over building operations, the report said.

All about BKC
BKC is India's costliest commercial district, and recently, it was in the news for closing land deals worth nearly ₹5,000 crore. These deals have been reported in Bandra-Kurla Complex (BKC), Mumbai's most expensive commercial district.
Given Mumbai's limited land availability, vacant land deals are rare in the city's financial hub. However, the Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA), the special planning authority (SPA) for BKC, successfully leased five land parcels from its landbank earlier this year for a term of 80 years, generating close to ₹5,000 crore in revenue.
Out of the five land deals, one deal also included that of a consortium led by Brookfield, including Schloss Bangalore Ltd, Arliga Ecospace, and Schloss Chanakya Pvt. Ltd., which won the bid to lease 8,411 sq meters of land in BKC's G Block. The land parcel has a development potential of 33,647 sq meters and will be leased for 80 years at ₹1,302 crore, MMRDA had said on April 4.
BKC has several government offices, including MMRDA, Goods and Services Tax (GST), Reserve Bank of India, Income Tax Department, and Family Court. The US consulate is also located there near the Jio Convention Centre. Luxury hotels such as Sofitel and Trident are also in BKC.

Prominent companies with offices in BKC include Jio, Apple, Netflix, Google, Facebook, Amazon, the National Stock Exchange, Standard Chartered Bank, WeWork, CISCO, Pfizer, Spotify, and Blackstone.

PSU banks write off loans over Rs 5.82 lakh cr in last 5 years: MoS Finance

Agencies Representative image Public sector banks (PSBs) have written off bad loans of about Rs 5.82 lakh crore in the last five financial years, Parliament was informed on Tuesday. During 2024-25, the loan write-off of PSBs was at Rs 91,260 crore, compared to Rs 1.15 lakh crore in the previous fiscal, Minister of State for Finance Pankaj Chaudhary said in a written reply to the Rajya Sabha. The write-off was highest at Rs 1.33 lakh crore during 2020-21, declining to Rs 1.16 lakh crore in the following year and to Rs 1.27 lakh crore in 2022-23. In contrast to write-offs, PSBs have recovered around Rs 1.65 lakh crore over the last five years. Recovery is around 28 % of the total write-off in the previous five financial years. Banks write off NPAs, including those in respect of which full provisioning has been made on completion of four years, as per the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) guidelines and policy approved by banks' Boards, Chaudhary said. "Such write-off does not result in waiver of liabilities of borrowers and therefore, it does not benefit the borrower. The borrowers continue to be liable for repayment, and banks continue to pursue recovery actions initiated in these accounts," he said. Further, he said, recovery in written-off loans is an ongoing process and banks continue pursuing their recovery actions initiated against borrowers under the various recovery mechanism available to them, such as filing of a suit in Civil Courts or in Debts Recovery Tribunals, and filing of cases in the National Company Law Tribunal under the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, etc. Replying to another question, Chaudhary said that more than Rs 21.68 lakh crore has been disbursed under Pradhan Mantri Mudra Yojana (PMMY) across the country over the last five years. In response to another question, Chaudhary said, according to provisional data provided by the RBI for the financial year 2024-25, Scheduled Commercial Banks have recovered a total of Rs 32,466 crore through actions initiated in 2,15,709 cases under the SARFAESI Act.
