Andheri is undergoing a significant transformation as redevelopment, improved connectivity and the growing presence of major real estate developers push the established western suburb towards larger and more premium homes.
Long recognised for its strategic location, Andheri has traditionally attracted professionals because of its access to the airport, business districts and major transport networks. Its proximity to BKC, Powai, Goregaon and key road corridors, along with expanding Metro connectivity, is now strengthening its appeal among affluent homebuyers.
The shift is increasingly evident in the residential projects coming up across the locality. Older properties are being redeveloped into larger, amenity-rich residences, while new developments are being positioned at higher price points. The entry of prominent developers has further reinforced Andheri’s emergence as a premium residential market.
DLF’s launch of The Westpark marked the company’s entry into Mumbai’s residential sector and highlighted the demand for large-format homes in the western suburbs. Other developers, including Oberoi Realty, Godrej Properties, Kalpataru and Runwal, have also expanded their presence across Mumbai’s suburban markets.
Aakash Ohri, MD & CBO, DLF, says, “It is a market we see as both strategic and long-term, and one where we believe there is a strong appreciation for the quality, design and attention to detail that have always been central to our approach to residential development. We are also seeing growing interest in established locations such as Andheri, where connectivity and access to key business and lifestyle hubs continue to underpin demand for premium housing. We believe this part of the city will remain an important focus for us as we deepen our presence in Mumbai,” he adds.
PropEquity data indicates that Andheri’s redevelopment activity has accelerated sharply. Annual supply rose from around 400 units in 2020 to nearly 1,850 in 2025, while launch area expanded to approximately 1.7 million sq ft.
Samir Jasuja, Founder and CEO, PropEquity, says, “As Mumbai confronts the pressing need to replace thousands of ageing cessed structures and unlock the substantial land value embedded within them, redevelopment is poised to become a defining force in the city’s next phase of urban transformation.”
With luxury launches, improved infrastructure and changing buyer preferences, Andheri is increasingly positioning itself as a key premium housing destination in Mumbai’s western suburbs.
