Mumbai Residential Property Report.

MUMBAI.

Mumbai Fact File

Mumbai, which was previously known as Bombay, is a major metropolitan city of India. It is the state capital of

Maharashtra. Mumbai city is known as the business capital of India. It is the country's principal financial and

communications centre. The city has the largest and the busiest port handling India's foreign trade. It also has

a major international airport. India's largest Stock Exchange, which ranks the third largest in the world, is

situated in Mumbai.

Mumbai contributes 10% of all factory employment, 40% of income tax collections, 60% of custom duty

collections, 20% of central excise tax collections and 40% of India's foreign trade.

Description about Mumbai/Bombay cannot be complete without the mention of Bollywood, the biggest

Indian film industry, which churns out hundreds of Hindi blockbusters every year.

Location

Mumbai lies on the western coast of India, spread across 437.77 sq. kms. The population of Mumbai, as per

Census 2001, was 11.98 million. Mumbai is a group of seven islands in the Arabian Sea which lies off the

northern Konkan coast on the west of the state of Maharashtra in India. These seven islands, which were once

separated by creeks and channels were filled and bridged over the years by the inhabitants.

Climate of Mumbai

Most of the year, Mumbai's climate is warm and humid. Between November and February, the skies are clear

and the temperature is cooler. From March, the temperature becomes warm and humid till mid June which is

the beginning of the monsoon. During monsoon, there are torrential rains which sometimes cause flooding of

major roads and streets of Mumbai. The average rainfall which is brought by the south-west monsoon winds

in Mumbai is 180 cms. Monsoon ends by the end of September. October is comparatively hot and humid.

History of Mumbai

In 1661, King Charles II of England married Princess Catherine de Braganza of Portugal, and as part of the

dowry he received "Bombay" which is today known as Mumbai. Later in 1668, it was handed over to the East

India Company.

In 1858, the administration of the country was taken over by the Queen of England, Queen Victoria, from the

East India Company. A Viceroy was appointed to rule India in the name of the Queen.

Bombay came under the direct rule of the British in 1861.

The first railway line in India was started between Mumbai (CST) and Thane in 1861.

In 1864, modern water supply was started in Mumbai and in 1885, Mumbai was lit with gas.

A number of Indian financial institutions have headquarters in downtown Mumbai, including the Stock

Exchange, the Reserve Bank of India, the National Stock Exchange of India and numerous conglomerates (the

Tata Group, Reliance, etc.). Many foreign banks and financial institutions also have branches in this area.

The property prices as well as the increase in rental values in Mumbai owe much of its credit to large scale

investments in the commercial sector. Mumbai has always been the hot favourite for most of the corporate

houses to have their headquarters. And with increasing investments by MNCs in the finance, media and the

BPO sectors, there has been a growing demand for office as well as residential space.

Administrative Framework

Mumbai consists of two distinct regions - the city (South Mumbai) and the suburbs. The city is usually referred

to as the Island City while the suburbs could be divided into the central and the western suburbs.

This region is administered by the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), formerly known as the

Bombay Municipal Corporation.

Navi Mumbai (stretching from Airoli to Uran) and Thane city, which have been covered as separate retail

districts in this report, are otherwise a part of the Thane district.

Pockets beyond CBD Belapur are a part of the Raigad district and fall under the Panvel Municipal Council.

The remaining parts of Navi Mumbai are under the jurisdiction of the NMMC (Navi Mumbai Municipal

Corporation).

Thane city is under the administration of the Thane Municipal Corporation.

Mumbai: Transport

Most of Mumbai's inhabitants rely on the following public transport to travel to and from their workplace:

– The Mumbai Suburban Railway

– State-run BEST buses

– Taxis, autorickshaws

The city is headquarter to two railway zones: the Central Railway (CR) headquartered at Chatrapati Shivaji

Terminus (CST), and the Western Railway (WR) headquartered near Churchgate.

Infrastructure

Bandra-Worli Sea Link

According to the original plan of the state government, the Bandra-Worli Sea Link (roadway) was to be completed by 2003, but the project has been embroiled in various issues such as logistical, environmental clearance and public interest litigation leading to its delay and subsequent cost escalation.

However, the sea link is now operational since July 1, 2009. Construction of the sea link has provided an additional fast moving outlet from South Mumbai to the western suburbs & thereby providing much needed relief to the congested Mahim Causeway. This link will also form a part of the western freeway as it starts with the Western Express Highway and Swami Vivekanand Road at Bandra and connects to Worli with an overall length of 5.6 kms.

Mumbai Trans Harbour Link

The proposed project links Sewri (South Mumbai) with Nhava Sheva (Navi Mumbai) with a 22 km road bridge

over the sea. The project consists of construction of an 8-lane bridge across the deep sea through the Mumbai

Harbour and connects it to local road networks through approaches / interchanges at both ends.

The proposed Mumbai Trans Harbour Link (MTHL) connecting Sewri to Nhava Sheva is expected to be a

catalyst to the development of Navi Mumbai, by promoting horizontal growth as against the vertical growth

experienced over the past few years. The link will help reduce problems of congestion and pollution in

Mumbai and improve the connectivity between Navi Mumbai and South Mumbai. The project is currently in

the bidding stages.

Proposed schemes under MUIP

The Master Plan of proposed schemes under the MUIP (Maharashtra Urban Infrastructure Project) for the

eastern and the western suburbs and for the Island City includes improvements/provision of D P Roads

(Development Plan Roads), Elevated Roads, Flyovers, ROBs (Road Over Bridge), Vehicular Subways,

Pedestrian Subways, Station Area Improvement Schemes (SAIS), high capacity bus corridors, etc.

The Government of Maharashtra, vide its Cabinet Resolution of November 1, 2003, sanctioned the Master

Plan for MUIP as indicated below:

Comparison of actual (A) and real & logical (R&L) price movement

The real & logical (R&L) price is considered to move in line with the consumer price index. Below chart brings out a comparison between quarterly property price movements and changes in consumer price index for Central suburbs. Since zone wise inflation data is not available we have substituted the Mumbai inflation figures for each zone.

The residential property prices in Central suburbs have increased at a pace almost double that of the general price rise as is evident from the above chart.

demand from the IT sector üInternational Infotech Park at Navi Mumbai has been designed with an infrastructure for the

needs of the technology-driven companies in Electronics, Information Technology,Telecommunications and related industries

üDue to the presence of existing IT parks, shopping malls, good infrastructure, goodeducational institutes, and more importantly the proposition of SEZ in Navi Mumbai, areaslike Vashi, Kharghar, Koperkhairane are on a rapid growth trajectory

ü6-Lane Road-cum-Rail bridge between the Sewri–Nhava Sheva link of about 22 km. isexpected to reduce the travel time between Navi Mumbai and Mumbai to about 30 minutes

The actual property prices have consistently increased more than proportionately than the real & logical

prices in South Mumbai.

Mumbai Absorption Index

As is evident from the chart given below, the absorption of residential properties in Mumbai has been on a

consistent decline since the start of FY 2008-09. The market did pick up sharply in November mainly due to

positive sentiments in the festival season. However, the levels were not sustained in the coming months and

the transactions dropped again. Overall, residential property transactions in April 2009 have nearly halved

from that of the same month in 2008.
