Recent development:
Jefferies emphasized that the inauguration of the Mumbai Trans Harbor Link marked a significant milestone as the first mega project for Macrotech Developers. This infrastructural upgrade, valued at over USD 70 billion, is set to enhance connectivity in Mumbai.
Jefferies, in its research note, also highlighted the strategic advantage of Lodha’s extensive 4,300-acre land bank on the outskirts of the city. This substantial land holding positions the company favourably, especially considering the doubling of land prices over the past three years, indicating potential long-term upside.
