Indian residential real estate hits new highs with record-breaking apartment deals in Mumbai
Indian residential real estate continues to set new benchmarks in terms of deal sizes and also on a per-sq-ft basis, driven by robust demand, limited supply in prime micro-markets, and the rising purchasing power of homebuyers. Luxury and premium segments in cities like Mumbai, Delhi-NCR, Bengaluru, and Hyderabad have recorded all-time high prices, with marquee projects touching or even surpassing Rs 1 lakh per sq ft in select pockets. With steady price escalation that reflects the sustained end-user interest and developer confidence, the momentum underscores the strength of the housing market on the back of India's sustained economic growth.

Aaditya criticises BMC over temple demolition notice
Mumbai: Worli MLA Aaditya Thackeray on Wednesday alleged that despite there being enough space for redevelopment of a building, the BMC has threatened the 100-year-old Lakshminarayan temple in the area with a demolition notice. "I visited the temple today and interacted with the locals. We will ensure that the sale component work will not happen for the builder if the temple is touched. The larger question for all to think about is how, under the BJP's electoral Hindutva, temples in Maharashtra are under threat!" he said. According to BMC officials, the temple is being relocated as part of the larger redevelopment plan, in accordance with the admissible area. "This matter also reached the city civil court, but temple authorities withdrew their petition. The developer gave a written assurance that the temple will be relocated within the designated area," said a civic Mumbai: Worli MLA Aaditya Thackeray on Wednesday alleged that despite there being enough space for redevelopment of a building, the BMC has threatened the 100-year-old Lakshminarayan temple in the area with a demolition notice. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Ative sua licença do antivírus agora Clique aqui Undo "I visited the temple today and interacted with the locals.

Police lodged the FIR on March 1 following an order by a magistrate's court on Feb 14 based on a private complaint by Adik's son, Prithviraj Adik (73).

It said on Oct 21, 2008, the consent terms distributed the properties and bank savings among Dr Pathak, the former wife, and the children.
