Adani Realty is preparing to open pre-bookings for its upcoming residential development on the historic Khatau Mill land in Borivali East, a project that spans 27 acres and is expected to reshape the micro-market of Mumbai’s western suburbs. The project had been delayed for months owing to regulatory hurdles but is now moving forward after a Supreme Court ruling eased restrictions on real estate clearances near ecologically sensitive zones.
The premium housing scheme, located just off the Western Express Highway and in proximity to the Sanjay Gandhi National Park, is positioned as one of the largest launches in Borivali East. Market sources indicate that two and three-bedroom apartments are likely to be priced between ₹2.2 crore and ₹4 crore, depending on configuration and carpet area. The developer has listed these expected ranges on its official platform, even though final pricing will be confirmed at the time of booking. The project’s trajectory reflects the larger policy and regulatory challenges shaping real estate development in Mumbai. Last year, a National Green Tribunal (NGT) directive mandated that any large-scale project within five kilometres of sensitive ecosystems such as mangroves or forests must seek clearance from the central government. This ruling placed several developments in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region under suspension, including Adani Realty’s Borivali township.
Industry stakeholders, represented by real estate associations, challenged the ruling in court, citing the need for clarity and continuity in the approvals process. In August this year, the Supreme Court permitted state authorities to resume environmental impact assessments for stalled projects and restored the previous framework for granting permissions. This judgement has not only unlocked progress for Adani Realty’s Borivali scheme but also for dozens of projects across Mumbai and Pune. Experts note that Borivali East has steadily grown as a preferred residential zone due to its connectivity to key business districts, accessibility via the suburban railway and expressway, and its proximity to the city’s largest green lung. At the same time, the location’s closeness to the national park underscores the importance of sustainable development. Urban planners have urged developers to incorporate eco-sensitive design, energy efficiency, and green building practices in order to ensure that redevelopment aligns with Mumbai’s long-term sustainability goals.
For Adani Realty, the upcoming pre-bookings mark a critical step in consolidating its position in Mumbai’s competitive residential market. With demand for mid-to-premium housing on the rise, industry analysts expect strong interest from homebuyers. Yet, residents and city stakeholders will be watching closely to see if the project can balance commercial aspirations with ecological responsibility—an increasingly vital concern for Mumbai’s future urban growth.
