The project will offer approximately 2.25 lakh sq. ft. of carpet area and is being launched at a time when BKC continues to operate at near-full occupancy. Industry data indicates that vacancy levels in BKC remain at around 2–3%, among the lowest across Indian commercial micro-markets, while annual leasing absorption has remained consistently strong. Rentals in core BKC have continued to trend upward due to the lack of new supply.
Vikas Jain, CEO, Labdhi Lifestyle Limited, said, “BKC continues to be one of the most resilient and institutionally strong commercial districts in the country. With BKC Edge, our focus has been on developing a Grade-A commercial asset that aligns with evolving business needs—efficient, well-connected, and future-ready. We see this as a long-term commitment to India’s commercial real estate ecosystem.” Located immediately south of core BKC, H-Block forms part of the original BKC planning framework and represents the district’s natural southward expansion as G-Block reaches saturation. The location is supported by strong existing and upcoming infrastructure, including proximity to the Eastern Express Highway (EEH), Western Express Highway (WEH), the Aqua Line Metro, and suburban rail connectivity via Sion station. H-Block will also benefit from improved north–south connectivity through the Mumbai Coastal Road network, enabling faster access from South Mumbai and the western suburbs. In addition, the precinct is located close to the upcoming Mumbai–Ahmedabad high-speed rail (bullet train) terminal at BKC.
Planned infrastructure upgrades such as the proposed G–H Block pedestrian pathway, G–H Block flyover, and an upcoming metro corridor are expected to further strengthen east–west connectivity. The precinct also benefits from city-level upgrades, including the Mithi River rejuvenation and riverfront development, a large-scale public investment aimed at environmental restoration and flood mitigation, as well as the proposed extension and enhancement of Maharashtra Nature’s Park, adding a significant green and public-realm advantage to the location. Spread across approximately 1.25 acres, BKC Edge is designed for large corporates and SME owners, professionals such as chartered accountants, lawyers, architects, and designers, as well as HNIs, NRIs, and mid-sized enterprises seeking ownership-led commercial spaces in BKC. The project will comprise 300+ business suites, aligned with contemporary workspace requirements.
With MMRDA having indicated that core BKC is largely sold out, with no new land parcels available, demand for quality commercial spaces continues to outstrip supply. Recent large-format transactions, including JP Morgan’s long-term pre-leasing of over 1.16 lakh sq. ft. for its India headquarters—with commitments extending up to 25 years—reinforce BKC’s position as the preferred headquarters destination for global institutions and underline the district’s long-term demand visibility.
Commercial assets in BKC have historically delivered rental yields in the range of 7–8%, along with capital value appreciation of approximately 15% per annum over the past 15 years, positioning developments in and around the district as both operational hubs and long-term capital preservation opportunities.
With BKC Edge, Labdhi Lifestyle Limited continues to strengthen its presence in Mumbai’s commercial real estate landscape through developments anchored by strategic location, strong infrastructure, and enduring value.
