J K Gram, off Pokhran Road No. 1 in Thane West, is not a locality Raymond Realty entered as an outside developer looking for land. Raymond Ltd. was incorporated as Raymond Woollen Mill in 1925 by Albert Raymond and Abraham Jacob Raymond near Thane Creek, and Lala Kailashpat Singhania took over Raymond Woollen Mill in 1944. The Singhania family's group carried the initials J and K, and the neighbourhood that grew around the mill and its worker housing still carries that name today. Raymond group holds over 125 acres of land in this region, the same mill land bank on which the company's real estate arm now builds. This is what separates Raymond Realty's presence in J K Gram from a typical developer land purchase: the address, the mill office, and the surrounding streets have been Raymond's for a century before a single residential tower came up.
Raymond Realty is the real estate arm of the Raymond Group, which was established in 1925, and was itself founded in 2019 as the Thane-based entity that would carry the group into real estate. Its first residential project, TenX Habitat, was an aspirational district spread across 14 acres housing in Thane with 3,100 residential units, and the maiden project was delivered 2 years ahead of RERA timelines. That early delivery record, on the same Pokhran Road corridor that runs through J K Gram, set the pattern for the projects that followed, including The Address by GS, The Address by GS 2.0, Ten X Era, Ten X Vibes, Invictus, the Park Avenue retail high street, and Codename Beyond.
The full address of Raymond Codename Beyond is Pokharan Rd Number 1, Devdaya Nagar, J K Gram, Thane West, Maharashtra 400606. Spread across 14 acres with 320 units of 2BHK apartments, Raymond Codename Beyond is designed to offer optimum cross ventilation, giving access to natural breeze and sunlight. Configurations are positioned in the 1.08 Crores to 1.34 Crores band for 2 BHK homes, and listings describe the project as ready to move into rather than an early-stage launch, which matters for a buyer weighing possession timelines against under-construction alternatives elsewhere on the same road.
The amenity list leans into open, active recreation rather than indoor-only clubhouse space. Rooftop provisions include a cricket practice pitch, lawn area, tennis court, basketball court, and football turf, alongside a garden, swimming pool, gym, ample parking space, sanitation management, 24/7 security, and a kids' play area. The building layout is planned so that the tower offers proper open space with the parking basement contributing to a more relaxed lifestyle rather than a footprint dominated by parked cars at ground level.
Pokhran Road No. 1, where Codename Beyond sits, begins at a well-known local landmark: Pokhran Road 1 initiates from the Cadbury Junction signal and has proximity to the Eastern Express Highway, connecting it to eastern suburbs and South Mumbai. For a buyer commuting toward BKC, Ghatkopar, or South Mumbai, this puts a Raymond Realty address within a short drive of the arterial road that carries most of that traffic. Within J K Gram itself, everyday needs are covered by names buyers already recognise: Jupiter Hospital, Currae Specialty Hospital, K. C. College of Engineering, Orchids International School, and Rajiv Gandhi Medical College are all within the vicinity. Institutional employers are close as well — Mindspace IT Park, Reliable Park, and Jupiter Hospital are in close proximity, with top companies like TCS, Deloitte, Voltas and Blue Star a short driving distance away.
Longer-range infrastructure adds to the case for holding property here rather than treating it as a short-term entry. The MTHL, the upcoming Navi Mumbai International Airport, and metro lines are expected to enhance connectivity, reinforcing Thane as a top choice for homebuyers. For residents wanting green relief without leaving the city, access extends to Upvan Lake, Joggers Park, Yeoor Hills, Talao Pali, and Kachrali Lake in what is often called Thane's city of lakes.
Raymond Realty's position in J K Gram cannot be separated from what the parent group is doing corporately. As the Raymond Group enters its centenary year, founded in 1925 as a woollen mill on the outskirts of Bombay, it has spent the past century building itself into India's industrial fabric. In 2025, Raymond Ltd announced the demerger of its real estate arm, Raymond Realty, aiming to streamline its business structure and unlock greater shareholder value — a move that gives the Thane-headquartered realty business its own listed identity rather than sitting inside a textile conglomerate's balance sheet. The company has also flagged operational milestones on the ground: it recently marked 25 million safe man-hours across its project sites, a number that matters to buyers evaluating a builder's construction discipline rather than only its brand name.
Within J K Gram and the immediate Pokhran Road belt, Raymond Realty's portfolio has grown project by project rather than in one large master-planned release. Neighbouring developments under the same Raymond name include The Address by GS, a flagship residential project on Pokhran Road offering 3, 4, 5, and 6 BHK residences with a 43,000 sq. ft. clubhouse, elevated landscaped decks, and 70,000 sq. ft. of high-street retail, connected to the Eastern Express Highway and Viviana Mall, along with Ten X Era, Ten X Vibes, Invictus, and the Park Avenue retail high street — giving a Codename Beyond buyer a cluster of Raymond-built social and retail infrastructure within walking or short driving distance rather than a standalone tower in isolation.
Thane West's residential market has moved up steadily rather than in short bursts. Average flat rates in Thane West stand around Rs 20,350 per sq ft, and pockets closer to the Pokhran Road corridor have outpaced the citywide average — Patlipada, Pokhran 2, Pokharan Road, Louis Wadi, and Ghodbunder Road have witnessed appreciation of up to 35 percent over the last five years. Social infrastructure has kept pace with that price growth: Thane has a developed social infrastructure with shopping hubs such as Viviana Mall, Korum Mall, Lake City Mall, and R Mall catering to residents' retail needs, most of them within a short drive of J K Gram. For a buyer comparing a Raymond Realty unit here against newer, unproven names elsewhere in Thane, the combination of an established construction record, a walkable social ecosystem the developer itself has helped build, and a locality with a century of continuous occupation by the same family group is the differentiator that price charts alone don't capture.
