Mumbai’s real estate story is evolving with new benchmarks and Oberoi Realty, one of India’s leading luxury developers, has once again set the bar high in the luxury segment. The company has clocked INR 970 crore in gross bookings from the launch of Elysian Tower D, part of its 80-acre flagship Oberoi Garden City (OGC) township in Goregaon East, Mumbai.
Launched on 30 April 2025, Elysian Tower D sold approximately 2.1 lakh sq. ft. of RERA carpet area, which translates into 3.25 lakh sq. ft. of saleable area in just days of its launch—an unprecedented feat in a year of muted sectoral performance and economic caution.
Project Overview
Elysian Tower D has 3 and 4-BHK residences, ranging from 2,009 to 3,430 sq. ft. (carpet area) in the upper-mid to luxury segment. With large layouts, natural light and premium finishes, the tower is designed to offer modern Indian families a higher lifestyle. Key features:
- Integrated township living with ready infrastructure (schools, malls, offices, hospitality)
- Premium lifestyle amenities: gardens, high ceiling entrance lobbies and recreational facilities
- Proximity to key infrastructure nodes: Western Express Highway, Goregaon Railway Station, Mumbai Metro and business districts
Tower D is the latest addition to the success of earlier towers (A, B and C) which have already seen good offtake, thereby creating a trusted ecosystem and community that appeals to the urban elite.
Significance of the Project
The concept of New Urbanism—walkable, self-contained urban neighbourhoods—underlies the planning of Oberoi Garden City. At a time when modern buyers want work-life-leisure balance within a single radius, OGC is a template for future urban planning in megacities like Mumbai.
This is what differentiates Oberoi Realty in a crowded market by creating developments that are not just homes, but ecosystems. With Oberoi Mall, The Westin Mumbai Garden City, Oberoi International School, and Grade-A offices housed within the same 80-acre expanse, the value proposition far exceeds just residential supply.
Financial & Market Implications
From an investment standpoint, this launch sends several key signals:
1. Luxury Segment Resilience
Despite rising interest rates and global macroeconomic uncertainty, luxury housing segment is showing resilience. Buyers in this segment are mostly end-users or HNIs who are less impacted by short term financing costs.
2. Brand Equity Driving Sales Velocity
Quick absorption of high value inventory within days of launch shows Oberoi Realty’s brand pull and execution track record. This is increasingly important in a market where execution risk deters pre-launch bookings.
3. Revenue Visibility & Balance Sheet Strength
Bookings worth INR 970 crore is a strong forward revenue pipeline which can impact quarterly results over the next few quarters as collections progress. This also gives the company more flexibility to deploy capital for future land acquisition or debt reduction.
Sectoral Context
Indian residential real estate in 2025 is in a transition phase:
- Rising input costs and monetary tightening has slowed down mid segment absorption.
- Luxury and branded townships are seeing good traction—especially in metros like Mumbai, Delhi-NCR and Bengaluru.
- Buyers are looking for trust, scale and quality—areas where listed players like Oberoi Realty outperform unorganised developers.
In this scenario, integrated developments like OGC stand out for their risk mitigated environment, rental income prospects and community appeal.
Leadership Commentary
Mr. Vikas Oberoi, Chairman & Managing Director, said:
“This is a testimony to the Oberoi Realty brand and our long term vision of creating integrated urban developments that redefine luxury living.”
His vision is in line with Oberoi’s philosophy of building for the future and not chasing short term speculative demand—a key differentiator as the Indian real estate market evolves.
Key Takeaway
- Expansion in other micro-markets or cities using the OGC model as a template.
- Sales of remaining inventory in Tower D and future towers in the Elysian cluster.
- Quarterly results which could see a significant increase in receivables and cash flows.
- Stock performance if market sentiment starts to align with operational performance.
Conclusion
Oberoi Realty’s successful launch of Elysian Tower D stands out not just for its INR 970 crore topline impact, but for what it represents: a confluence of design innovation, strategic urban planning, and brand strength. At a time when the real estate market is sorting leaders from laggards, Oberoi has sent a clear message—it’s not just participating in the premium housing story; it is scripting it.
As India’s cities evolve and discerning buyers demand more from their homes, developments like Oberoi Garden City will be the benchmarks, not exceptions.
