Ashwin Sheth Group buys 4.05-acre Goregaon West land for Rs 255 crore
The Mumbai-based real estate developer has acquired the rights from the Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (Mhada), which had to reissue the tender for the development as the developer appointed earlier left the project. The Ashwin Sheth Group won the tender and will develop a certain area of the land for the existing tenants.
The premium project will feature five towers – four towers of 44 floors each and a signature 60-floor tower – alongside retail development. The development will offer approximately 12 lakh square feet of Rera carpet area, with 2, 3, and 4 bed residences ranging from 800 to 1,600 square feet.
Ashwin Sheth, Chairperson and Managing Director of Ashwin Sheth Group, said: 'This strategic acquisition from Mhada represents a milestone in our expansion strategy. Goregaon West has emerged as one of Mumbai's most promising residential destinations, and securing this prime 4.05-acre parcel positions us to deliver a world-class development that will set new standards for premium living in the western suburbs.'
In the last one year (April 2024–March 2025), Goregaon West has seen 1,300 new property sale transactions with a gross sales value of Rs 1,961 crore, according to Square Yards Data Intelligence, a real estate data analytics firm.
The property rate in the area stood at Rs 35,208 per square foot as of the first quarter of the calendar year 2025 (Q1 CY25), against Rs 34,572 per square foot in Q1 CY24.
The Siddharth Nagar location in Goregaon West offers excellent connectivity to major business districts, entertainment hubs, and transportation networks. With the area witnessing rapid infrastructure development and emerging as a preferred residential destination for both end-users and investors, the project is strategically positioned to cater to the growing demand for premium housing in the western suburbs, the company claimed.
Earlier, in June, the company acquired a 50 per cent stake in a luxury project with a GDV of Rs 2,300 crore in Mumbai, for which Singapore-based alternative investment firm PAG has committed funding of Rs 540 crore ($65 million).
The Ashwin Sheth Group is exploring plans for an initial public offering (IPO). 'The IPO is still 12 to 18 months away. First, we want to create a substantial portfolio to show in the IPO. We have identified merchant bankers. We are in discussions with the legal counsel,' a company spokesperson told Business Standard earlier.
Further, the company has developed 38 msf of real estate projects, and 7 msf of the company's projects are under construction with a GDV of Rs 24,000 crore. 'This revenue will accrue to us in the next 5 to 6 years,' the spokesperson had said.

Gulf Air Orders 12 New Boeing And 787 Dreamliners
US aviation giant Boeing on Thursday signed a contract worth billions of dollars to sell 12 787 Dreamliners, with options for six more, to Gulf Air, as the Bahrain-based carrier looks to expand its global network. The order comes one month after an Air India Boeing 787 crashed shortly after takeoff, killing a total of 260 people on the plane and on the ground. "Once finalised, this order will bring the carrier's firm order book to 14 of the versatile wide-body jets and will support 30,000 jobs across the US," the companies said in a joint statement. The official Bahrain News Agency said the kingdom's national carrier had signed a $4.6 billion agreement for 18 Boeing 787 Dreamliners. The US Commerce Department put the value of the 18 planes at $7 billion. The deal "marks a transformative step in Gulf Air's strategic growth journey as we expand our global footprint and modernise our fleet with one of the industry's most advanced and efficient aircraft," said Gulf Air Group chairman Khalid Taqi. "The Boeing 787 Dreamliner has proven to be an exceptional aircraft for our long-haul operations, and this new order reflects our confidence in its performance, passenger appeal and contribution to our sustainability goals." Boeing delivered 150 commercial aircraft in the second quarter, its highest number of deliveries in that quarter since 2018. That was just before two 737 MAX crashes in October 2018 and March 2019 -- which killed 346 people -- plunged the company into crisis. The Air India jet bound for London crashed in the Indian city of Ahmedabad on June 12. A preliminary investigation report revealed that the fuel control switches were switched off shortly after takeoff. Boeing has not been asked to take any action as the probe continues. US President Donald Trump on Tuesday announced a trade pact with Indonesia that limits tariffs on Indonesian products at 19 percent, and said the deal features a pledge from the country to buy 50 Boeing jets, "many of them 777s."

For most Indian farmers, costs grow faster than income
For most Indian farmers, costs grow faster than income Indian farmers are hit by the double whammy of stagnant income and declining profit margins, according to an analysis of data compiled by the Commission for Agricultural Costs and Prices (CACP). For nearly all major crops, the increase in agricultural income over the last decade has not kept pace with the rural inflation rate. The data also shows that the profit margins for most crops have declined. The analysis of ten major crops for both kharif and rabi seasons shows that, except for maize, groundnut and rapeseed/mustard, the increase in farm income has been less than the rural inflation rate during the same period. Inflation rate exceeded income growth In 2013-14, the average input cost was Rs 25,179 per hectare for paddy while the value of family labour was assessed at Rs 8,452 per hectare. The value of the crop was Rs 53,242 per hectare, which meant a profit of Rs 19,611 per hectare. In 2023-24, this profit increased to Rs 30,216 per hectare. Although this was a 54% jump, consumer prices in rural areas increased by 65% between 2013-14 and 2023-24. The crop also saw a decline in profit margins. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like This Could Be the Best Time to Trade Gold in 5 Years IC Markets Learn More Undo I n 2013-14, the profit margin was 58% of the input and labour costs, which has now dropped to 49.3% of the cost. The input cost and family labour is taken as the total expense to calculate the profit margin since this spending is also part of the formula for Minimum Support Price (MSP). Wheat, unlike paddy, is primarily a rabi (winter) crop, but a comparison of decadal growth in income and margins shows a similar pattern. The surplus over input cost and family labour was Rs 29,442 per hectare in 2012-13 and increased by 53% to Rs 45,179 in 2022-23. That's lower than the 71% increase in rural consumer prices between 2012-13 and 2022-23. The profit margin too decreased from 123% in 2012-13 to 103% in 2022-23. Sugarcane, another major crop, also saw a stagnation in net income. From Rs 96,451 per hectare in 2012-13, the profits increased to 1,21,668 in 2022-23. This 26% increase is lower than the increase in consumer price inflation. In 2012-13, the profit margin was 151%, which declined to 102% in 2022-23. Of the ten major crops (based on highest output) for which the comparison is done, only three have shown an increase in income higher than the inflation rate. These are maize (162%), rapeseed & mustard (85.7%) and groundnut (71.4%). For the rest, the increase was lower than the inflation rate. It was between 50% and 60% for gram, between 20% and 30% for soyabean and cotton, and less than 20% for arhar (tur). Apart from stagnant incomes, the profit margins have declined for all of these crops except maize. These per-hectare profits are roughly equal to the seasonal incomes for a vast majority of Indian farmers. The average land holding size in the Agriculture Census of 2015-16 was just under 1.1 hectares, but most farmers (68.5%) are marginal farmers, which means they own less than 1 hectare of land (averaging at 0.38 hectare). This means that seasonal income for them will be even lower. Experts have pointed out that the stagnation as well as lower agricultural income is due to the extent of mismatch between the share of agriculture in GDP and in employment. Despite contributing only 16% of GDP, agriculture employs more than 40% of India's workforce. In advanced economies like the US, its share in GDP and employment is 0.9% and 2%, respectively. Even in a developing economy like China, agriculture's contribution to GDP is 6.8% while it employs 22% of the workforce.
