Land parcel transactions are gaining momentum across India’s major property markets, especially in cities like Mumbai, Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad, and Bengaluru. These deals encompass both outright acquisitions and joint ventures, as developers and investors seek prime sites for new projects.
Several of these transactions have already been finalized, with others in advanced negotiation stages, underscoring robust demand for land in these high-growth urban centers.
This heightened interest is fueled by the rising need for residential, commercial, and mixed-use developments, as these cities expand and draw increased domestic and foreign investments.
