MHADA the housing authority of the state, signed an agreement with a developer in Mumbai’s Walkeshwar area on January 2, 2020. MHADA will receive 1500 sq ft from the developer.

The agreement was signed by a senior official from MHADA’s Repair and Reconstruction Board with a private developer. The developer is developing a plot measuring 709 sq mts located in Dongarsi Road, Walkeshwar.

The flats that MHADA will get will be located in the building’s 14th and 15th floor. A senior official from MHADA said, “The building is yet under construction. The agreement signed is mandatory before the commencement certificate is issued. We will be receiving the area mentioned in the agreement from the developer once the building is constructed.”

According to officials from MHADA the building will be constructed in a period of two to three years and that is when it shall receive the flats. The decision whether to bring the flats in lottery for common man shall be taken once the building is ready and the flat sizes are accurately known.

Normally MHADA brings flats that it receives from such development in lottery, when the sizes of the flats are bigger than what they offer in rehab of old tenants.
