Malabar Hill is considered the most expensive residential area in the country. This information was obtained from documents provided by Indextape.
The flat is located in the “Malabar Palaces” project on Walkeshwar Road within Malabar Hills, being developed by MacroTech Developers, also known as Lodha Group.
According to the documents viewed by Manikantroal, the carpet area of this flat is 9,546 square feet. It comes with a balcony, terrace, and a rooftop as well. The apartment also provides six parking spaces. The registration of this flat was completed on June 30, 2023, and Rajendra Barwale paid stamp duty of 7.33 crore rupees for the same.
As of the time of writing the news, the developers had not responded to the queries sent by Manikantroal via email. The text messages sent to the Barwale family members also remained unanswered.
According to local brokers, Malabar Palaces is a redevelopment luxury project, involving the demolition of old buildings to construct new ones. Lodha Group recently launched this project. The building has a total of 31 floors, and it is expected to be completed by June 30, 2026.
