Avenue Supermarts Ltd, the parent company of D’Mart, that recently purchased a land parcel in Chandivali, will be developing the plot as a commercial property. According to CRE Matrix, a real estate data analytics firm, the company is likely to construct a shopping centre on the 52,000 sq ft land parcel.
While the agreement value for the 52,765 sq ft land deal is Rs 117.25 Crore, the company paid Rs 7.03 Crore as stamp duty to finalise the deal that was registered on May 6, 2024. The document showed that the industrial building on the plot currently includes four units on the ground floor and four units located on the first floor.
According to agreement, the NSE listed company has already got an extra FSI of 0.5 from Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM) and now has FSI of more than 1 lakh sq ft to develop the land parcel. All efforts to get the comments from Avenue Supermarts proved futile.
