Godrej Properties has announced significant leadership changes, appointing new executives to two pivotal senior roles. Amitesh Shah, a long-time executive within the company, has been elevated to Zonal CEO for the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), effective July 19, 2025. Concurrently, industry veteran Sandeep Navlakhe joins the firm as Chief Operating Officer, taking charge from August 1. These strategic appointments reflect the company’s commitment to strengthening its operational capabilities and leadership team for future growth.
Amitesh Shah’s elevation comes after his notable contribution as Region Head for MMR, where he led bookings exceeding ₹5,100 crore in FY2025, accounting for a substantial portion of the Mumbai zone’s total. He has been with Godrej Properties since 2011, bringing experience from previous roles at ICICI Prudential and HCL Technologies. Sandeep Navlakhe, the new Chief Operating Officer, boasts over 34 years of diverse experience across major infrastructure and real estate projects. His impressive career includes leadership positions at Adani Airport Holdings, where he oversaw operations across seven airports and the Dharavi redevelopment, and Tata Projects, where he managed a ₹3,750 crore portfolio, including the new Parliament building and Noida International Airport. He also held key roles at Lodha Group and L&T.
These appointments follow the recent departures of two senior executives: Chief Operating Officer Vikas Singhal, who will leave on July 31, and Priyansh Kapoor, the former Zonal CEO for MMR, who stepped down on July 18, 2025. The leadership transitions were formally disclosed through stock exchange filings in compliance with SEBI’s disclosure requirements. Following the announcement, shares of Godrej Properties saw a slight increase, closing 1.1% higher at ₹2,363.55 on Friday.
Across the real estate sector, these strategic leadership changes at Godrej Properties are poised to reinforce its operational efficiency and market position. The appointments of experienced professionals signal a focused approach to sustained growth and project execution. This move underscores the company’s dedication to a robust leadership structure amidst dynamic market conditions.
