Execution of DAs for these is expected in the coming days. Located in the Lokhandwala area of Andheri West, one of the city's most vibrant residential hubs, the cluster redevelopment covers a cumulative plot area of approximately 4.75 acres (19,229 sq. meters) and includes 548 existing members. The company said in a statement that the project is expected to unlock approximately 10.6 lakh sq. ft. of saleable area and generate a Gross Development Value (GDV) of ₹ 3,000 crore. Rustomjee said that the project aligns with its broader strategy of expanding its footprint in key suburban markets and building a diversified portfolio across micro-markets and pricing segments. With this addition, the company said it has further strengthened its project pipeline for the current financial year, continuing its momentum of acquiring strategically located, high-potential redevelopment projects in key city clusters. Boman Irani, chairman and managing director of Keystone Realtors Limited, said, 'We are proud to have been selected as the preferred redevelopment partner for this large-format society cluster in Andheri West—one of Mumbai's most dynamic residential neighbourhoods. With a GDV of nearly Rs. 3,000 crore and a significant development footprint, this project exemplifies our focus on scale, location, and value creation."

This cluster-led approach is a testament to the growing trust in Rustomjee's redevelopment capabilities and our consistent track record of timely delivery and thoughtful design," Irani said. What is redevelopment? In Maharashtra, several old buildings, especially those comprising two to seven storeys, are currently being redeveloped. Redevelopment of housing projects involves demolishing the old structure and replacing it with a modern, bigger building, subject to various norms. Also, residents of the old building get larger apartments in the newer building for free, as the builder sells a certain number of apartments in the new building for a profit in the open market. The government also earns revenue by selling the floor space index (FSI) to the builder.
