HoABL's Move into Kharghar: What It Means for Buyers

The House of Abhinandan Lodha (HoABL) was founded in 2020 by Abhinandan Lodha and initially focused on land developments in the Konkan region of Maharashtra. The company grew rapidly: HoABL today reports a portfolio of over 1,000 acres of plotted developments, with 13 million square feet of land sold and an additional 34 million square feet in the development pipeline. As of 2024, it reported operations across 16 locations in India, including Goa, Himachal Pradesh, Maharashtra, Punjab, and Uttar Pradesh.

In 2025, the company entered the vertical housing segment through its Growth Housing initiative, beginning with a residential project in Naigaon, Mumbai, in partnership with Mittal Builders. That Naigaon launch set a measurable benchmark: the company's Growth Housing project witnessed strong demand at its launch, with 8,838 registrations received for 1,419 homes on offer. While that investment anchors HoABL's Mumbai city entry, the developer has also identified Kharghar as a pivotal node for future appreciation.

The Kharghar residential project — listed here as the HoABL Residential Project, Kharghar — represents the developer's first foray into Navi Mumbai's most established CIDCO-planned node. It offers 1, 2 and 3 BHK homes with amenities across all configurations. The project is positioned within Kharghar's expanding residential grid, at Kharghar East, in a rapidly developing growth corridor.

From Branded Land to Vertical Homes: How HoABL Builds Differently

For most of its five-year history, HoABL operated as a branded land developer — curating RERA-registered plotted communities in locations such as Alibaug, Ayodhya, Goa, Nagpur, Neral, and Shimla. Every land parcel underwent rigorous legal due diligence, all projects were RERA-registered, and customers received complete legal documentation, ensuring a fully transparent and secure buying experience. The same compliance philosophy now carries into the vertical segment.

For its first vertical real estate project, HoABL utilised agentic artificial intelligence to drive sales operations. The company managed to save extra costs by not setting up sample flats or site offices, using AI and data for faster conversions, less manpower, parallel construction and vendor negotiations — a model it describes as Growth Housing. The intent is to close the gap between aspiration and affordability without reducing specification: all homes come with premium finishes such as marble-finished tiles, French windows, granite kitchens, and high-quality fittings, ensuring that first-time buyers can access design and quality typically associated with luxury developments.

With its Mumbai vertical entry, HoABL is pivoting from its success in branded land to high-rise developments, and Kharghar is a direct extension of that pivot into Navi Mumbai. The configurations — 1, 2 and 3 BHK — are calibrated to capture both end-users who have long been drawn to Kharghar's liveability and investors tracking the corridor's infrastructure-driven repricing.

Why Kharghar, and Why Now

Kharghar's appeal rests on a convergence of infrastructure milestones that have either recently opened or are in final construction. Three major infrastructure catalysts unlocked within 18 months: Atal Setu (MTHL) went live in January 2024, Metro Line 1 (Belapur–Pendhar) in September 2025, and Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMIA) began commercial operations in December 2025. For a Kharghar buyer, these are not future promises — they are operating infrastructure.

  • Metro Line 1 (Belapur–Pendhar): The line serves Kharghar, Taloja, and the Belapur–Pendhar corridor and has made previously distant localities commuter-viable, injecting significant confidence into mid-segment residential projects. Properties near metro stations consistently command a 10–12% price premium.
  • Mumbai Trans Harbour Link (Atal Setu): The MTHL connects Sewri to Chirle in under 20 minutes, slashing travel time to South Mumbai. This reduces the travel time from South Mumbai to Kharghar from around 120 minutes to approximately 80 minutes or less.
  • Navi Mumbai International Airport: Kharghar is roughly 25–30 minutes by road from NMIA. Properties within the 10–15 km radius of an international airport historically see a 15–25% surge in capital values immediately before or upon full operation.
  • Kharghar–Turbhe Tunnel: The tunnel is under construction with breakthrough expected late 2026 and full completion in September 2028; when it opens, the Turbhe–Vashi commute compresses by 25–30 minutes — the next significant rate-mover.
  • CIDCO International Corporate Park (ICP): CIDCO's ICP Phase 1 is active across 120 acres in Kharghar. If the ICP builds out as planned over five to seven years, Kharghar gains what it has lacked for a decade — a daytime workforce that lives in the same micro-market it works in.

Kharghar remains one of the few places in the MMR where residents can live next to an 18-hole golf course and the 80-hectare Central Park. The area is also home to institutions including NIFT and NMIMS, which underpin a young professional and family-oriented demand base that aligns with HoABL's target buyer profile.

Kharghar's Price Trajectory and What Buyers Are Paying

Flat rates in Kharghar have changed by approximately 17.9% over the last three years and 23.7% over the last five years. As of April 2026, the average property rate in Kharghar has climbed to approximately ₹17,500 per square foot, with premium Sector 12 touching ₹22,000 and above. At the transaction level, the average transaction rate stands at ₹16,203 per square foot, reflecting active real secondary market depth. For reference on configuration pricing in the broader market: 1 BHK flats are available in the range of ₹47 lakh to ₹75 lakh, while 2 BHK flats range from ₹1.05 crore to ₹1.65 crore.

Local end-users, investors, and NRI buyers are all converging on Kharghar simultaneously — a convergence that signals demand is not coming from one narrow segment that could exit all at once. The average rental yield in Kharghar stands at 4%, with higher-yielding segments in the professional rental belt near corporate parks.

For an HoABL buyer, this pricing context matters because the Kharghar project enters at a point where the market's infrastructure re-rating is already partially priced in — but for Upper Kharghar and airport-corridor pockets, appreciation is still in an active phase, with analysts forecasting 6–9% per year through 2025–2030 as remaining infrastructure milestones land.

HoABL's Footprint in the MMR Region

Kharghar is not HoABL's only active location in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region. The company has assembled a cluster of MMR projects that collectively demonstrate its local market commitment. HoABL is launching projects in vertical real estate in Mumbai across locations including Marine Lines, Chowpatty, Naigaon, Kharghar, Nashik, Sion and other parts of Mumbai. The company has also formed a joint venture with Mittal Builders for a major township in Naigaon, worth approximately ₹2,000 crore.

On the land side, a 50-acre landmark plotted development is positioned 40 minutes from the Navi Mumbai International Airport, sitting within the broader airport-influence zone that also encompasses Kharghar. The developer's Neral project — described as India's first blue zone development — sits to the south-east, completing a ring of HoABL activity around the MMR's southern growth arc.

In 2023, HoABL formed a joint venture with HDFC Capital Advisors, investing ₹1,500 crore in plotted and low-rise developments across India, providing institutional capital backing that distinguishes its project pipeline from smaller regional developers. By late 2024, the firm reported additional investments totalling ₹3,000 crore for land acquisitions across Amritsar, Khopoli near Mumbai, Nagpur, Shimla, Varanasi, and Vrindavan.

HoABL also offers full support to NRI property buyers, including virtual site visits, legal guidance, documentation assistance, and a dedicated relationship manager, with a digital-first platform that enables investment from anywhere in the world.

Frequently Asked Questions

What configurations does the HoABL Residential Project in Kharghar offer?+
The project offers 1, 2 and 3 BHK homes. Layouts follow HoABL's Growth Housing design philosophy — vastu-compliant, cross-ventilated, and optimised for maximum usable carpet area with natural light from East and West-facing orientations.
How does Kharghar connect to the rest of Mumbai and Navi Mumbai?+
Kharghar is served by Navi Mumbai Metro Line 1 (Belapur–Pendhar), which became fully operational in September 2025. The Mumbai Trans Harbour Link (Atal Setu), live since January 2024, cuts travel to South Mumbai to approximately 80 minutes from Kharghar. The Sion–Panvel Highway provides direct road access to Mumbai, and the Kharghar–Turbhe Tunnel, expected to complete in September 2028, will further compress commute times to Vashi and Turbhe by 25–30 minutes.
What are current property prices in Kharghar, and how have they trended?+
As of April 2026, the average asking rate in Kharghar is approximately ₹17,500 per square foot, with the average transaction rate around ₹16,203 per square foot. Flat prices have risen roughly 17.9% over three years and 23.7% over five years, supported by metro connectivity, MTHL, and the opening of Navi Mumbai International Airport in December 2025.
Why is HoABL entering the Kharghar residential market specifically?+
HoABL's Growth Housing expansion targets corridors where branded developer presence is limited but infrastructure investment is concentrated. Kharghar sits adjacent to CIDCO's 120-acre International Corporate Park Phase 1, is 25–30 minutes from the operational Navi Mumbai International Airport, and now has a functioning metro connection — the combination of employment, connectivity, and greenfield buyer demand matches the profile HoABL targeted with its oversubscribed Naigaon launch in 2025.
What is HoABL's track record in vertical residential development before Kharghar?+
HoABL's first vertical residential project was in Naigaon East (western suburbs of Mumbai), in partnership with Mittal Builders. That launch received 8,838 registrations for 1,419 homes — more than 6x oversubscribed — and was conducted entirely through a digital platform with agentic AI handling buyer queries. The Kharghar project follows the same Growth Housing framework, applying the same digital-first model and sustainability specifications including solar panels, rainwater harvesting, EV charging, and AAC block construction.
Is the HoABL Kharghar project suitable for NRI buyers?+
Yes. HoABL operates a fully digital transaction model and provides NRI buyers with virtual site visits, dedicated relationship managers, and complete documentation support. Kharghar and Ulwe are currently among the Navi Mumbai nodes attracting the highest NRI interest, primarily because of their resale liquidity depth and the certainty of operating infrastructure — Metro Line 1, MTHL, and NMIA are all live.
