MPIDC plans to start bookings, site visit for IT Park 4 soon
Indore: The Madhya Pradesh Industrial Development Corporation (MPIDC) is gearing up to initiate bookings and site visits for under-construction IT Park-4 in Pardeshipura. This new facility is anticipated to generate approximately 1500 new jobs.
In a bid to inform potential investors, MPIDC has planned to organise a camp dedicated to providing insights about the IT Park and facilitating site visits. The park, which is being developed at an estimated cost of Rs 42 crore, will be located within the Electronic Complex in Pardeshipura.
MPIDC executive director Himanshu Prajapati said, "Our goal is to create a conducive environment for industries to thrive in Madhya Pradesh.
The development of IT Park-4 and the Plug and Play Park will not only enhance employment opportunities but also establish our state as a hub for innovation and industrial growth."
Prajapati on Wednesday toured key industrial areas including the Electronic Complex, Readymade Complex, and Namkeen Cluster to review the progress of ongoing projects, including the Plug and Play Park and IT Park-4.
During his visit, Prajapati assessed the development of the multi-storey Plug and Play Park, a project valued at Rs 167 crore within the Readymade Garment Complex.
This facility will be the state's first multi-storey garment park, comprising 184 production units, 94 sales offices, and 48 small shops. Prajapati also engaged with women working in the garment park, discussing work culture and the overall environment.
At the Namkeen Cluster, manufacturers expressed the need for additional land for a new cluster and space for a testing lab in the existing setup.
Namkeen Cluster Association president Vipin Jain highlighted the interest from new investors wanting to establish businesses in the area, alongside requests from existing units looking to expand.
Jain also urged for enhancements including coverage of the wastewater recycling plant, installation of an RO water plant to provide filtered water for namkeen production, and improved street lighting on the access road to the cluster.
In response, Prajapati assured manufacturers of the development of necessary facilities and instructed officials concerned to address the demands promptly.

UGRO Capital announces Rs 400 crore rights issue at Rs 162 per share
UGRO Capital on Saturday announced a Rs 400 crore rights issue at Rs 162 per share, the company said in a press release. The board had on May 20 announced a Rs 915 crore of preferential compulsorily convertible debentures (CCD) issuance and a concurrent proposal to offer up to Rs 400 crore on a rights basis to existing public shareholders. Under the approved terms, this pro-rata offering ensures that all existing public shareholders have a fair opportunity to maintain their stake and guard against dilution as the company continues to expand its balance sheet and deepen its DataTech advantage in serving India's underserved micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs), the press release said. Shachindra Nath, founder and managing director of UGRO Capital, said, 'We are consistently adding Rs 3,000 crore in AUM (asset under management) year-on-year. This capital raise would ensure that our growth trajectory remains unhindered. Our growing AUM and profitability, coupled with a strengthened capital adequacy ratio post this infusion, position UGRO to scale its credit delivery and support the financial needs of small businesses across India.' The rights issue builds on the company's recent performance, which saw assets under management grow to Rs 12,003 crore and profit before tax more than double to Rs 203 crore in the financial year 2024-25 (FY25), while maintaining a healthy capital adequacy ratio. InCred Capital and SNG & Partners are serving as financial advisor and legal advisor, respectively, for this rights issue as well as for equity capital raise. In addition to preferential allotment, in the proposed rights issue, IFU, the investment fund for developing countries, a Danish impact investor which is an affiliate of Danish government and existing investor of UGRO owning 16.35 per cent, have committed Rs 150 crore, UGRO Capital said.

Mumbai's unsold luxury stock rises 36% Y-o-Y in Q1 '25, 1st time since 2022
Mumbai's unsold luxury stock saw a rise of 36 per cent year-on-year during the first quarter of 2025 calendar year, a first since 2022, due to ample supply of new additions in the segment of units more than Rs 2.5 crore, shooting prices and global economic slowdown, according to a report by Anarock. As many as 8,420 luxury units priced over Rs 2.5 crore were unsold in the city in Q1 2025, compared to 6,180 units unsold during the corresponding period the previous year. The January to May period this year saw a record 64,461 property registrations in Mumbai, against 60,818 in the corresponding period in 2024, a 6 per cent increase annually. The total revenue collected by the state government in the first five months this year was nearly Rs 5,695 crore, compared to Rs 4,860 crore collected last year during the same period, a record-high yearly jump of 17 per cent. 'The increase in unsold luxury stock is mainly attributable to significant new unit additions in this price category over the last one year. According to Anarock data, 2024 saw as many as 16,480 units added in the over Rs 2.5 crore budget category in the entire MMR, while another 5,294 units were added in Q1 2025. While demand for these homes continues to remain strong, skyrocketing prices and headwinds like global economic slowdown have dented sales growth of these homes in the last one year,' said Anuj Puri, chairman, Anarock Group. This is the first time since 2022 that the unsold inventory in the luxury segment has risen. Both in first quarters of 2023 and 2024, there has been a significant decline in the unsold luxury stock as against preceding year of the same quarter. In Q1 2023, there was a 29 per cent yearly decline in luxury unsold stock in Mumbai – from approximately 18,340 units in Q1 2022 to nearly 13,040 units as of Q1 2023. Similarly, in Q1 2024, the unsold luxury stock in the city declined by a significant 53 per cent Y—O-Y to approximately 6,180 units. 'A deeper analysis reveals that May 2025 recorded the second-highest number of property registrations since 2019 in the month, with over 11,562 properties registered,' Puri said. 'The revenue collected during the month stood at approximately Rs 1,062 crore. In comparison, May 2024 saw the highest registrations of around 11,999 property registrations— about 4 per cent higher than this year. However, revenue collection last year was lower by nearly 3 per cent at Rs 1,062 crore,' he said. Considering that housing sales remained tepid in the first quarter of 2025 across the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), including Mumbai, the high number of property registrations in the first five months of 2025 is notable. According to Anarock Research, in Q1 2025, approximately 21,930 units were sold in Mumbai - nearly 28 per cent less than the sales in Q1 2024. A key factor behind the surge in property registrations during the first five months of the year is the record-breaking activity seen in March, which registered 15,501 properties. This spike followed the announcement of a 3.9 per cent hike in Maharashtra's ready reckoner rates for the financial year 2025-26. The total revenue collected from property registrations during the month alone exceeded ₹1,589 crore. March 2025 marked the highest property registrations in the past three years. Prior to this, the highest figures were recorded in December 2020 (19,581) and March 2021 (17,728), during the Covid-19 period when the Maharashtra government had reduced stamp duty on housing units from 5 per cent to 2-3 per cent, the report said. The average ticket price of homes during the January to May months stood at Rs 1.59 crore – the highest since 2019, indicating sales of high-ticket price homes. During the corresponding period in 2021, the average ticket price stood at Rs 1.02 crore, the report stated.
