Since 2019, Raymond Realty has been building a residential portfolio with a focus on purpose-driven architecture and precise execution. That portfolio has grown rapidly: Raymond Realty became an independently listed entity in July 2025, following the demerger of the real estate business from Raymond Ltd. The separation gave the company a sharper mandate — to scale residential development across Mumbai's most productive micro-markets without the diversified-conglomerate overhead.
The company holds 100 acres of owned land and has now signed seven joint development agreements. The backbone of its Thane land bank — projects like TenX Habitat, TenX Era, and The Address by GS along Pokhran Road — gave Raymond Realty its delivery reputation. Towers A, B, and C at TenX received their Occupation Certificate two years ahead of the MahaRERA timeline, demonstrating the company's commitment to timely delivery. That track record is what makes a Kandivali announcement meaningful: Raymond Realty does not enter a new suburb casually.
Raymond Realty has signed definitive agreements to develop its seventh joint development residential project in Kandivali, Mumbai, further expanding its presence in the city's western suburbs. The upcoming project is estimated to have a gross development value of around ₹3,000 crore and marks the company's third development in Mumbai's western suburban belt.
The Kandivali project will be Raymond Realty's third development in the western suburbs of Mumbai and the seventh joint development project undertaken by the company in Mumbai. With a total GDV of ₹43,000 crore, Raymond Realty is scaling its operations by leveraging its joint development project strategy to build a significant portfolio without substantial land ownership burdens. The Kandivali project — tracked here as Raymond Kandivali — sits within this expanding western corridor strategy.
Previous major joint development projects include Mahim (₹1,800 crore GDV) and Wadala (₹5,000 crore GDV), alongside a Bandra East project with over ₹2,000 crore revenue potential announced in June 2024. Kandivali, at ₹3,000 crore GDV, ranks among the larger entries in that JDA pipeline — a reflection of the micro-market's scale and absorptive capacity.
Kandivali's emergence as a destination for branded residential launches is underpinned by measurable price momentum. Property rates in the Kandivali East market currently range between ₹20,000 to ₹35,000 per square foot, representing approximately half the cost of comparable properties in premium locations like Bandra and Santacruz. That relative-value gap is precisely what attracts end-users who want proximity to the western corridor's employment and lifestyle base without South Mumbai pricing.
Kandivali recorded approximately 20% price growth in a recent measured period — one of the stronger appreciation rates along the western suburban belt. Malad, Kandivali, and Mulund have recorded 10–12% yearly price growth, fuelled by metro connectivity and increasing demand for suburban living. These are not speculative gains driven by land scarcity alone; they track real infrastructure delivery.
The transport picture around Kandivali has shifted materially in recent years. Metro Line 2A (Dahisar to DN Nagar) now runs through the western suburbs, connecting residents to the Andheri interchange and onward to the city's business corridors. Future connectivity enhancements including the Coastal Road (North), the Goregaon–Mulund Link Road, and Metro Lines 6, 9, and 10 are anticipated to further strengthen transportation networks and stimulate regional development. Of particular long-term significance: Coastal Road Phase 2, running Worli to Kandivali across 19 km, is targeted for 2028. Direct sea-facing road access to South Mumbai from Kandivali would compress commute times in a way the Western Express Highway alone cannot.
The area is already witnessing premium residential launches, integrated township projects, and large-scale redevelopment initiatives that are transforming the character of these western suburbs. Raymond Realty's entry via the joint development route — redeveloping an existing society or land parcel rather than acquiring greenfield land — fits the structural pattern that defines credible scale in Mumbai's constrained geography.
Buyers evaluating Raymond Kandivali benefit from understanding how the developer operates across the region. In Thane, Raymond Realty holds a 100-acre land bank, with approximately 40 acres under active development, translating to about 4 million square feet of RERA-approved carpet area across ongoing initiatives like TenX Era and Invictus by GS Tower. In Bandra, the company is advancing projects such as The Address by GS and MIG VI, featuring 2–4 BHK units in contemporary high-rises with integrated retail spaces.
Raymond Realty has a track record of finishing projects well before RERA deadlines, granting it strong standing in customer-trust surveys. For buyers in a pre-launch or early-stage project like Raymond Kandivali, this delivery history is material: the company has demonstrated, in a publicly verifiable way through MahaRERA OC records in Thane, that its construction timelines are not aspirational targets but operational benchmarks.
Raymond Realty has been recognised as Emerging Developer of the Year at the Economic Times Real Estate Awards and received the Big Impact Creator in Ultra Luxury Project recognition at the Big Impact Awards. More recently, Raymond Realty was named among ET Edge Best Realty Brands 2026.
Real estate professionals note that current market demand differs significantly from previous investment cycles, with end-users — particularly families seeking enhanced community living and modern amenities — leading the buying trend in western suburban markets like Kandivali. This is the demographic Raymond Realty has consistently addressed in Thane: mid-premium to premium family configurations, well-serviced amenity podiums, and a brand identity that carries weight with first-generation homebuyers and upgraders alike.
FY 2024–25 witnessed the highest-ever sales in Mumbai's history, with 49,191 housing units worth ₹1,24,138 crore — a 26% growth from the previous year. Within that market, industry analysts suggest that the convergence of affordability factors, improved connectivity infrastructure, and enhanced quality of life is positioning Mumbai's western corridor as the city's next premium residential destination. Raymond Realty's ₹3,000 crore commitment to Kandivali is, in that context, a developer placing a large, considered bet on where Mumbai's residential centre of gravity is moving.
