The House of Abhinandan Lodha (HoABL) built its Ayodhya presence in the same administrative belt that holds the city's temple core, its railway terminals and its riverfront: Sadar tehsil, the seat of Ayodhya district.
Between 2022 and 2023, the firm expanded its land holdings into Goa and North India, acquiring 51 acres in Ayodhya. It followed that with a larger commitment as the Ram Mandir consecration approached, when it invested ₹300 crore for a 25-acre land parcel in Ayodhya ahead of Ram Mandir inauguration, as reported by Hindustan Times in December 2023. That parcel underpins the developer's branded plotted development on the Sarayu riverfront, marketed as The Sarayu — a name that ties the project directly to the river that borders the temple town and the Sadar tehsil landscape.
Sadar tehsil contains Ayodhya's administrative headquarters along with the temple precinct, the Sarayu ghats and the corridor connecting the city to its newest infrastructure. Major highways running through Ayodhya district include NH 27, NH 330, NH 330A and SH 30, all of which converge in and around this core. The Maharishi Valmiki International Airport (AYJ) is located along NH-27 and NH-330, about 8–10 km from the Ram Mandir and 15 km from Ayodhya city center, and opened in December 2023. On the rail side, Ayodhya Cantt and Ayodhya Dham are the district's major railway stations, with Ayodhya Dham situated 135 km from Lucknow, 164 km from Gorakhpur, 157 km from Prayagraj and 191 km from Varanasi. For a land developer whose thesis rests on titled, plotted holdings gaining value as connectivity and footfall build, a site inside Sadar tehsil sits closer to that infrastructure than almost anywhere else in the district.
The House of Abhinandan Lodha is an Indian real estate company headquartered in Mumbai, founded in 2020 by Abhinandan Lodha, that develops residential plotted land projects. As of 2024, it reported operations across 16 locations in India, including Goa, Himachal Pradesh, Maharashtra, Punjab, and Uttar Pradesh. By August 2024, the Mumbai-based company had already launched nearly 10 plotted development projects covering 650 acres in Maharashtra, Goa, and Ayodhya in Uttar Pradesh, and it planned to invest ₹1,800 crore that fiscal year on land purchase and construction, having sold plots in a price range of ₹10 lakh to ₹15 crore. Track record matters for a plotted-land buyer, and here HoABL can point to delivery rather than only plans: the company had delivered two projects by that point — its first project at Dapoli and an 18-acre development in Goa, both handed over to customers. Separately, in its first five years HoABL has sold over 13 million sq. ft. of developed land and has another 34 million sq. ft. under active development, giving the Ayodhya holding scale-context within a much larger national pipeline.
Buyers researching HoABL online sometimes confuse it with the listed Lodha Group; the two are formally and legally separate. The House of Abhinandan Lodha is part of Lodha Ventures, established by Abhinandan after quitting Macrotech Developers, the listed entity managed by his brother Abhishek Lodha that markets its properties under the Lodha brand. That separation was made explicit in 2025: Abhinandan Lodha was confirmed as the exclusive owner of the House of Abhinandan Lodha (HoABL) brand, with both Lodha Group and House of Abhinandan Lodha committing to operate independently and communicate that distinction clearly. The parent holding company itself was renamed around the same time, with the Abhinandan Ventures umbrella rebranded from Lodha Ventures in May 2025. For a Sadar-area buyer, the practical upshot is that HoABL's Ayodhya land bank, its Sarayu-facing plotted layout and its sales process sit entirely under Abhinandan Lodha's own operating company, distinct from any other Lodha-branded project in the market.
A HoABL plot in Sadar tehsil is, in substance, a bet on Ayodhya's temple-driven transformation reaching the land immediately around it — the Ram Mandir consecration in January 2024, the new airport on NH-27, and the upgraded rail terminals nearby. HoABL's role is that of the land aggregator and master-planner: it acquired the parcel, cleared and structured the title, and is developing it as a demarcated plotted layout rather than a built residential product, consistent with the model it has run at Dapoli, Alibaug and Goa. Buyers evaluating a plot here are weighing HoABL's execution record elsewhere in its portfolio, the tehsil's proximity to the airport and railway corridor, and the pace at which Ayodhya's civic and tourism infrastructure keeps expanding around the Sarayu riverfront.
