Eaton Technologies Leases 1.5 Lakh Sq Ft Office Space in Pune’s Baner from K Raheja Corp Subsidiary

K Raheja Corp leases out office space

Eaton Technologies India has made a significant office space commitment in Pune, leasing 150,000 sq ft at Aditya Shagun Infinity IT Park in Baner for a 10-year term. According to property registration documents accessed by CRE Matrix, the deal carries a potential rental outflow exceeding ₹250 crore over the lease period.

The leased space, spread across three floors, has been taken from Asterope Properties Pvt Ltd—part of K Raheja Corp—at a starting monthly rent of ₹1.65 crore (₹110 per sq ft) with an annual escalation of 4.5%. The agreement includes a five-year lock-in period, a security deposit of ₹9.9 crore, and parking for 150 four-wheelers and 150 two-wheelers. Eaton also holds the option to lease an additional 47,000 sq ft within the same complex.

The lease commences on July 15, 2025, with occupancy phased across three timelines—July 15, December 1, and January 15, 2026. Fit-out rent is set at ₹2,400 per sq ft per month, while common area maintenance (CAM) charges are fixed at ₹14.75 per sq ft per month.

Eaton Technologies, the Indian arm of the US-based intelligent power management company Eaton Corporation, plans to establish its Global Capability Center (GCC) at this location. This move underscores India’s growing role as a GCC hub, driven by strong talent availability, competitive operating costs, and modern infrastructure.

The deal is part of a rising trend of large, pre-committed office leases in Pune, especially in the western corridor covering Baner, Balewadi, and Hinjewadi. Over the past 18 months, this region has attracted major commitments from multinational corporations across technology, engineering, and financial services sectors.

With its strategic location and high-grade infrastructure, Baner continues to position itself as a preferred destination for companies looking to set up large-scale operations in India.

Recent Transactions

Pune’s commercial real estate market has seen a surge in activity recently, with major corporates securing premium office spaces across key business districts. This reflects strong demand driven by IT, engineering, and global capability centres expanding operations in the city.

In a similar transaction earlier this year, Citigroup Inc. secured over 7.7 lakh sq ft of office space through a long-term lease in Pune’s Kharadi. In another transaction, Awfis Space Solutions leased 1.97 lakh sq ft of office space in the same locality of Pune.

Tesla Leases 8,200 Sq Ft Showroom in Delhi’s Aerocity at ₹17.22 Lakh Per Month

Tesla Leases in Aerocity Delhi

Elon Musk’s Tesla India Motors and Energy Pvt Ltd is accelerating its India expansion with a premium lease deal in the capital. According to property documents accessed by CRE Matrix, the electric vehicle maker has signed a nine-year agreement for an 8,200 sq ft showroom space in Delhi’s Aerocity, a high-profile hospitality and commercial hub located near Indira Gandhi International Airport. 

The lease, registered on July 30 with Oak Infrastructure Pvt Ltd, is valued at ₹210 per sq ft per month, amounting to ₹17.22 lakh in monthly rent. Tesla has also taken 10 parking slots at ₹6,000 per month each, alongside a security deposit of ₹1.03 crore.

The sublease begins on March 15, 2025, with a 120-day fit-out period before the commencement of rent payments on July 13, 2025. The agreement includes a three-year lock-in period, a 15% rent escalation every three years, and common area charges of ₹33.5 per sq ft per month, backed by a refundable CAM deposit of ₹16.48 lakh.

This Aerocity lease marks Tesla’s second major retail space in India following its high-profile entry into the market last month. On June 15, the company leased its first showroom at Maker Maxity Mall in Mumbai’s Bandra Kurla Complex, taking 4,000 sq ft in one of the country’s most expensive commercial districts for ₹23.38 crore over five years, and inaugurated it on July 15.

Tesla has not limited its expansion to retail spaces alone. Earlier, the company also secured nearly 51,000 sq ft of super built-up area at Orchid Business Park on Sohna Road, Gurugram, for a nine-year term at a starting monthly rent of ₹40.17 lakh. With prime locations now locked in across Mumbai, Gurugram, and Delhi, Tesla is positioning itself strategically in India’s most influential business hubs, setting the stage for an aggressive brand rollout in the world’s third-largest automobile market.

Tesla Expands India Presence with 33,000 Sq Ft Lease in Gurugram for Service and Delivery Operations

Tesla Leases Space for Service center in Gurugram (2)

In a major step towards strengthening its operations in India, global electric vehicle (EV) giant Tesla has leased over 33,000 square feet at Orchid Business Park on Gurugram’s Sohna Road, according to documents accessed by real estate analytics platform CRE Matrix. This marks Tesla’s continued commitment to establishing a robust EV ecosystem in the country.

The lease agreement, signed on July 28 under the name Tesla India Motors and Energy Pvt. Ltd., is valid for nine years with a three-year lock-in period. The facility will serve as a multi-functional centre—housing a service centre, delivery hub, and retail outlet for Tesla’s growing customer base in the Delhi-NCR region.

As part of the deal, Tesla has taken over the entire ground floor of the Orchid Business Park, covering 33,475 sq ft. The monthly rent is set at Rs 40.17 lakh, calculated at Rs 120 per sq ft, with an annual escalation of 4.75%. The automaker has also paid a stamp duty of Rs 20.69 lakh and deposited Rs 2.41 crore as a security deposit. Additionally, Tesla has secured 51 dedicated car parking slots as part of the transaction.

This new Gurugram facility adds to Tesla’s rapidly growing footprint in India. The company is also set to unveil its second showroom in the country on August 11, located at Worldmark 3 in Aerocity, New Delhi, near the IGI Airport. This follows the successful launch of Tesla’s first Indian showroom—a 4,000 sq ft space at Maker Maxity Mall in Mumbai’s Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC).

Earlier in May 2025, Tesla leased over 24,000 sq ft of warehousing space from Lodha Logistics Park in Kurla (West), Mumbai, at a monthly rent starting from Rs 37.5 lakh. That move underlined Tesla’s focus on building a strong backend supply chain to support vehicle delivery and after-sales service in India.

With these strategic leases, Tesla appears to be laying the groundwork for a full-fledged India launch, potentially ahead of local production or larger import volumes. As the country ramps up infrastructure and incentives for EV adoption, Tesla’s moves indicate long-term confidence in the Indian market.

K raheja Acquires land parcel in Pune

In a major land acquisition move, Mumbai-based real estate major K Raheja Corp, through its subsidiary KRC Queens Pvt Ltd, has purchased a 7.43-acre land parcel in Mahalunge near Pune’s thriving Hinjewadi IT hub. According to property registration data accessed by CRE Matrix, the transaction was valued at ₹195 crore and was officially registered on July 21, 2025.

The land has been acquired from Pune-based Mahalunge Real Estate Developers Pvt Ltd and is reportedly earmarked for a large-scale township development. With growing interest in integrated township models in Pune’s rapidly expanding western corridor, this acquisition signals K Raheja Corp’s continued focus on high-potential micro-markets.

The deal also involved a stamp duty payment of ₹13.67 crore, reflecting the premium nature of the parcel and the location’s rising importance as a real estate hotspot.

Mahalunge, located adjacent to Hinjewadi and Baner, is part of the Pune Metropolitan Region Development Authority’s (PMRDA) smart city development initiatives. With a blend of connectivity, infrastructure upgrades, and residential demand, the area has emerged as a magnet for large-scale real estate investments.

K Raheja Corp’s entry reinforces the trend of top-tier developers staking claim in Mahalunge’s future. With this acquisition, the company is poised to contribute to the next phase of Pune’s urban transformation.

Pune’s real estate landscape is witnessing momentum, with several notable land deals shaping its growth trajectory. In a similar transaction, in November 2024, The Lodha Group purchased a 2.82-acre land plot in Pune’s Hinjewadi for approximately Rs 111 crore.

Shweta Tripathi Buys Chembur Apartment

According to documents accessed by CRE Matrix, acclaimed actor Shweta Tripathi, best known for her role in the hit series Mirzapur, has purchased a 3 BHK apartment in Chembur, Mumbai, for ₹3 crore. The property is located in Supreme Boulevard, a residential project developed by Mumbai-based real estate firm Supreme Universal.

The apartment spans 938 sq ft of usable area and is situated on the 9th floor of the building. Registered on July 2, 2025, the transaction involved a stamp duty of ₹15 lakh and registration charges of ₹30,000. Notably, Shweta Tripathi availed a stamp duty concession under the Maharashtra government’s policy that offers financial relief to women homebuyers.

The per square foot rate for the apartment stands at ₹32,000, and the deal includes two car parking spaces—an increasingly valued asset in the city’s competitive housing market.

Chembur, a suburb in eastern Mumbai, has experienced a surge in popularity in recent years, partly due to its improved connectivity and the influx of prominent developers. The area gained significant spotlight following two major acquisitions by Godrej Properties – the purchase of the iconic Raj Kapoor Studio and the Raj Kapoor bungalow. The current building under development on that land is part of Godrej’s broader strategy to redefine Chembur’s residential landscape.

With well-established social infrastructure and proximity to major business districts, Chembur continues to attract both end-users and investors alike. Shweta Tripathi’s recent investment further highlights the area’s growing appeal among Mumbai’s high-profile residents.

Asha Bhosle Sells Apartment

Legendary singer Asha Bhosle, along with her son Anand Bhosle, has sold their 3,401 sq ft luxury apartment in Pune for ₹6.15 crore. According to the documents accessed by CRE Matrix, the transaction was registered on July 14, 2025. This transaction reflects the consistent appreciation of high-end real estate in Pune’s eastern corridor.

According to the documents accessed, Bhosle originally purchased the apartment in February 2013 for ₹4.33 crore. With the recent sale, the iconic singer has earned a return on investment of approximately 42% over a 12-year holding period.

The apartment is located in Panchshil One North, a premium residential development near Magarpatta City, a thriving IT and commercial hub in Pune. The unit, situated on the 19th floor, includes a 182 sq ft terrace and was sold along with five dedicated parking spaces—a rare and valuable amenity in urban residential markets.

The property has been acquired by two Pune-based buyers, Prerna Gaikwad and Sangram Gaikwad. Public records reveal that over ₹43 lakh was paid in stamp duty, along with a ₹30,000 registration fee.

Strategically located, Panchshil One North offers seamless connectivity.

Golf Links Bungalow Sold for ₹100 Crore in Lutyens’ Delhi Luxury Deal

Golf Links Bungalow sold for Rs 100 crore

Yashwant Singh, a member of a Rajasthan royal family, has purchased a bungalow in Delhi’s upscale Golf Links area for a staggering ₹100 crore, according to property registration records accessed via CRE Matrix.

The transaction, registered on June 12, 2025, includes a land parcel of 588.97 sq. m with a built-up area of 867.33 sq. m. Singh has reportedly paid ₹7 crore in stamp duty and corporation tax. The seller of the property is Anu Jindal, currently residing in The Camellias, Gurugram. Singh’s address is listed as the prestigious APJ Abdul Kalam Road, New Delhi.

The bungalow, true to Lutyens’ charm, is a 2.5-storey structure that includes a basement, ground and first floors, a barsati (terrace room), and dedicated servant quarters.

Experts say that this deal reaffirms the sustained allure of the Lutyens Bungalow Zone (LBZ), where demand far exceeds supply. Golf Links, in particular, remains one of the most coveted addresses in the capital. With very few listings at any time, buyers often face stiff competition for a foothold in this elite enclave.

Lutyens Bungalow Zone is not just expensive; it’s also highly regulated. As a designated heritage zone, areas like Golf Links, Prithviraj Road, parts of Sunder Nagar, and Bengali Market fall under strict development norms. These include height restrictions, low floor-area ratios (FARs), and limitations on reconstruction.

While the zone is undeniably prestigious, it doesn’t always offer the spatial luxuries one might expect at this price point. In fact, few bungalows here exceed 10,000 sq. ft. of carpet area. But what it lacks in scale, it more than makes up for in legacy, location, and exclusivity.

This ₹100 crore deal is not just a headline-grabber. It’s a signal that Lutyens’ Delhi, and Golf Links in particular, remain untouched by market slowdowns or cyclical shifts. It represents a class of Indian real estate that is less about square footage and more about stature.

Recent Transactions

High-value transactions in Delhi’s luxury real estate market signal continued buyer interest in marquee addresses. In prime zones like Golf Links and across Lutyens’ Delhi, demand remains strong despite limited inventory and strict heritage development norms.

In a recent transaction, Delhi High Court senior advocate Arun Kathpalia purchased a 763 sq yard bungalow in the same Golf Links neighborhood for ₹69 crore. In another transaction, Sanjay Kukreja, a partner at ChrysCapital, and his wife, Shaveta Sharma, purchased a 1,250-square-yard bungalow for ₹155 crore.

Lodha Developers Acquires 945 Apartments in Mankhurd for ₹567 Crore

lodha buys apartments for redevelopment

In a landmark deal that reflects shifting dynamics in Mumbai’s redevelopment landscape, Lodha Developers has acquired over 945 apartments as Permanent Transit Camp (PTC) units in the eastern suburb of Mankhurd. The transaction, valued at ₹567 crore, marks one of the largest SRA-linked asset transfers in the city to date. According to documents accessed via real estate intelligence platform CRE Matrix, the registration took place on June 3, with Lodha paying a stamp duty of ₹34.02 crore.

A Permanent Transit Camp(PTC) refers to ready-built housing that temporarily or permanently houses project-affected persons, typically slum dwellers or tenants, under SRA (Slum Rehabilitation Authority) schemes. These units help developers fulfill their rehabilitation commitments for ongoing redevelopment projects.

Lodha’s bulk acquisition spans a built-up area of 3.39 lakh sq ft and is part of a compliance-driven strategy. One of its key redevelopment projects in the Vikhroli suburb requires the company to hand over more than 50,000 sq meters of constructed area to the SRA for PTC purposes.

However, with limited land availability in Vikhroli and the long timelines associated with in situ construction, Lodha has opted for off-site fulfilment through this strategic Mankhurd purchase. The seller, in turn, monetizes part of its free sale inventory, reportedly holding over 83,000 square meters of it in the locality. This makes the deal mutually beneficial.

This move highlights the increasing relevance of Mumbai’s eastern suburbs, like Mankhurd, in large-scale urban renewal projects. It also points to a growing trend among developers to explore off-site, asset-backed solutions to meet regulatory obligations swiftly, especially as redevelopment projects face tighter timelines and heightened compliance scrutiny.

As Mumbai’s real estate market continues to evolve, transactions like these are likely to become more common, reshaping how rehabilitation components are addressed in the city’s ever-expanding redevelopment story.

Recent Redevelopment Transactions in Mumbai

Mumbai’s redevelopment landscape is witnessing a surge in high-value transactions as developers race to meet growing housing demand. From bulk SRA unit acquisitions to large-scale society redevelopments, recent deals highlight the city’s shift toward faster, compliance-driven real estate strategies.

In a recent transaction, Kalpataru signed redevelopment contracts for two housing society projects in Chembur and Goregaon, Mumbai, spanning over 1.5 million sq ft with a potential revenue of ₹2,000 crore.

Apple Leases Prime Retail Space in Mumbai’s Borivali for Second Store in City

Apple Leases Prime Space in Borivali Mumbai

Global tech giant Apple is expanding its retail footprint in India, securing 12,616 sq ft of premium retail space in Mumbai’s fast-growing suburb of Borivali. This marks Apple’s fourth store in the country, following locations in Mumbai, Delhi, and Bengaluru.

The new Apple store will be housed in a prominent mall situated just off the Western Express Highway, a key arterial road connecting Mumbai’s suburbs. The India arm of Apple has signed a long-term lease agreement spanning 10 years and 10 months, with monthly rent starting at Rs 17.35 lakh, which works out to approximately Rs 138 per sq ft.

According to documents accessed by CRE Matrix, the lease registration finalized on May 28 reveals that Apple negotiated a 10-month rent-free period. Rent payments will begin after this initial phase, with a lock-in period of the entire lease term for the licensor and 6 years and 6 months for Apple. The agreement also incorporates structured rent escalations of 15% every 36 months to keep pace with market trends.

Additionally, Apple has agreed to a revenue-sharing model with the mall owners. The lease includes a quarterly revenue share of 2% for the first 42 months, increasing to 2.5% thereafter. Common area maintenance (CAM) charges are fixed at Rs 75 per sq ft. Apple has paid a security deposit of Rs 1.04 crore as part of the agreement.

This move follows Apple’s recent leasing of an 8,000 sq ft retail space in Bengaluru to establish its third store in India, as well as an office lease of 6,526 sq ft in Mumbai’s Bandra-Kurla Complex (BKC), one of the city’s key commercial hubs. The BKC lease commanded a monthly rental of Rs 738 per sq ft. This indicates Apple’s strategic investment in prime real estate to support both retail and office operations.

With this new retail location in Borivali, Apple is tapping into Mumbai’s rapidly developing suburban markets, catering to the growing tech-savvy population outside the city’s traditional commercial zones. The Western Express Highway area offers excellent connectivity and footfall potential, making it an attractive choice for luxury and tech brands aiming to strengthen their presence in India’s largest metropolis.

As Apple continues to expand its physical store network in India, the company is set to bring its premium retail experience closer to more consumers, supporting the growing demand for Apple products in the country.

Tesla Leases 24,000 Sq Ft in Kurla, Mumbai for New Service Centre

Tesla Leases Space in Kurla

Tesla’s entry into the Indian market continues to gain momentum with the electric vehicle (EV) giant leasing a new commercial space in Kurla West, central Mumbai. The newly acquired 24,500 sq. ft facility, located in Macrotech Developers’ Lodha Industrial and Logistics Park, will serve as a dedicated vehicle service center—Tesla’s first such facility in the country.

This marks Tesla’s fourth commercial footprint in India, following the establishment of its engineering hub in Pune, its registered office in Bengaluru, and a short-term office in Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC). Notably, this is the second deal concluded by Tesla within the last two months, highlighting the company’s growing focus on operational readiness in India.

According to documents accessed by CRE Matrix, the lease agreement, signed by Tesla India Motor & Energy, spans five years with a starting monthly rent of Rs 37.53 lakh. The total rental commitment over the lease term exceeds Rs 24 crore. The license period commenced on April 20, with a rent-free phase lasting one month and ten days. Rent payments began on June 1. The lease includes an annual 5% escalation in rent and Rs 10 per sq. ft Common Area Maintenance (CAM) charges, which will also escalate by 5% annually.

This strategic move comes soon after Tesla secured its first showroom space in India at BKC, setting a record for lease rentals at Rs 881 per sq. ft per month. With this new facility, Tesla is laying the groundwork for its long-term operations in the country.

Tesla’s recent activity suggests a renewed commitment to India, particularly in light of recent policy changes aimed at attracting global EV manufacturers. The developments follow CEO Elon Musk’s meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his US visit, a turning point in Tesla’s approach toward the Indian market.

As the government continues to ease import duties and encourage local production, Tesla’s growing footprint could signal the beginning of a robust EV ecosystem in India.
