Gurugram-headquartered real estate developer DLF Ltd has formally entered the Mumbai residential real estate market with the launch of its new premium housing project, ‘The Westpark’, in Andheri West. This marks the company’s first residential foray into India’s financial capital, nearly two years after announcing its plans to re-enter the Mumbai market.
The launch took place on July 17, 2025, and includes the first phase of development on a strategically located 5.18-acre plot in Oshiwara, just off the Andheri Link Road and in close proximity to the Oshiwara Metro Station. According to details verified from the Maharashtra Real Estate Regulatory Authority (MahaRERA) portal, the project has received regulatory approval for the development of four residential towers in Phase 1. These towers together will house 416 units.
The first phase of The Westpark includes two towers that are being opened for bookings initially, while the remaining two towers of the phase will be launched in the next few weeks. Each of the four towers approved under MahaRERA will offer a mix of 3, 4, and 5-bedroom apartments. In addition, a limited inventory of five compact studio units, each measuring 236 sq. ft., will be available.
Apartment sizes for the larger units range from approximately 1,048 sq. ft. to 2,278 sq. ft. The pricing for these units is expected to start from ₹5 crore and go upwards, indicating the project's positioning in the high-end housing segment. According to real estate market sources, the property is being designed with premium amenities and is expected to cater to an affluent urban demographic seeking spacious living in the city’s western suburbs.
The phase-wise development of the project is spread across a total of eight towers. The second phase, which will add four more towers to the site, is expected to be launched in the coming months.
‘The Westpark’ is located on a prime land parcel measuring 7,788 sq. metres in Oshiwara, within the Andheri West micro-market. In addition to residential towers, the project will include a 50,000 sq. ft. clubhouse designed to offer leisure, wellness, and community facilities. The entire development is slated for completion by June 2032.
The site offers significant locational advantages. Its position along the Andheri Link Road ensures connectivity to both the Western Express Highway and the Versova-Ghatkopar Metro corridor. Proximity to business hubs such as Lokhandwala, Goregaon, and Jogeshwari, as well as key transport infrastructure like the Oshiwara railway station and Metro Line 2A, adds to its appeal for working professionals and investors alike.
DLF’s entry into the Mumbai residential market comes over a decade after it exited its earlier investment in the city. In 2005, DLF had acquired 17 acres of mill land in Lower Parel from the National Textile Corporation for ₹704 crore. However, following the 2008 global financial crisis, the company sold that land to Lodha Group (now Macrotech Developers) in 2012 for ₹2,700 crore, marking its retreat from Mumbai’s property market.
In July 2023, DLF officially announced its return to Mumbai real estate. The Westpark project is being developed in partnership with the Trident Group and falls under the Slum Rehabilitation Authority (SRA) scheme. The launch signals a calibrated re-entry strategy by India’s largest listed real estate developer, focusing on high-value urban micro-markets with strong end-user and investor demand.
A senior official aware of the project’s planning process stated that DLF has used its recent success in Gurgaon’s luxury housing segment to fine-tune the design, pricing, and amenity mix for The Westpark. “They’re applying the same model—deep design planning, premium positioning, and trusted delivery—to this Mumbai project,” the source said.
DLF’s launch in Andheri comes at a time when Mumbai’s real estate market is witnessing heightened activity, particularly in the redevelopment and luxury housing space. According to Knight Frank’s mid-2025 report, the city recorded housing sales worth ₹18,000 crore in the first half of the year, even as signs of softening were visible in mid-income and compact segments.
Andheri West, in particular, has been one of the more stable micro-markets, supported by its connectivity, social infrastructure, and ongoing Metro expansion. The Westpark’s entry into this location is expected to further stimulate demand and pricing in the micro-market’s luxury segment.
With The Westpark, DLF aims to leverage its national brand equity in India’s most competitive real estate market. The choice of Andheri West—a well-developed, high-demand suburb—underscores the company's intent to remain selective yet impactful in its Mumbai re-entry.
As bookings open for the first two towers, industry watchers will be observing both absorption rates and pricing trends to assess the success of the project and its impact on DLF’s broader expansion strategy in western India.
