Acknowledgements This document has emerged from a partnership of disparate groups of concerned individuals and organizations who have been engaged with the issue of exploring sustainable housing solutions in the city of Mumbai. The Kamala Raheja Vidyanidhi Institute of Architecture (KRVIA), which has compiled this document, contributed its professional expertise to a collaborative endeavour with Society for Promotion of Area Resource Centres (SPARC), an NGO involved with urban poverty. The discussion is an attempt to create a new language of sustainable urbanism and architecture for this metropolis.

Mumbai Infrastructure: What Is and What Will Be?
MUMBAI INFRASTRUCTURE: WHAT IS AND WHAT WILL BE? Infrastructure development acts as a cornerstone for any city in order to determine the growth trajectory and to become an economic and real estate powerhouse. While Mumbai is the financial capital of India, its infrastructure has not been able to keep pace with the sharp rise in its demographic and economic profile. The city’s road and rail infrastructure is under tremendous pressure from serving a population of more than 25 million people.

Mumbai Retail Guide
MUMBAI Cushman & Wakefield Global Cities Retail Guide Cushman & Wakefield | Mumbai | 2019 0 Mumbai serves as the financial capital of India and accounts for the highest GDP contribution in the country, currently standing at approximately 6.61%. Mumbai is the second most populated city in the country with a population of approximately 22 million. Mumbai’s retail market is characterised by smaller disorganised retailers or corner shops retailing various commodities ranging from food to clothes and other household items, as is the case across most cities and towns in India. Rapid economic growth and changing consumer preferences have transformed Mumbai’s retail market, with organised retail increasingly playing a much larger part. Over the years, several large organised developments have sprung up across the city, ranging from mass to premium and luxury. Several local and international luxury brands have opened stores in Mumbai and many consider the city a launch pad for their brand. The presence of Bollywood, one of the world’s leading movie industries, has fuelled the growth of organised retail in Mumbai, with many stars endorsing both local and global brands alike. Brands such as H&M, GAP, Sephora, Scotch & Soda, Muji, Massimo Dutti, Jo Malone, Longchamp, American Eagle, Armani Exchange, Hackett, Onitsuka Tiger, Hamley's, Simon Carter, Du Rhône Chocolatier, Bath & Body Works, Franck Muller, Hublot have all entered the Mumbai retail market. New entrants tend to open stores in malls first, within prominent retail developments, then subsequently establish a footprint on major streets. Luxury labels benefit from high-net-worth individuals (HNI) in Mumbai, many of whom travel abroad frequently and have high disposable incomes.

Mumbai Residential Marketbeat Q3 2020
M A R K E T B E AT MUMBAI Residential Q3 2020 Pent-up developer projects push the total quarterly units launched in Q3 Mumbai witnessed a recovery in quarterly new residential launches in Q3 with the government relaxing lockdown restrictions, regulatory approvals coming through and developers commencing construction activities. A total of 4,791 units were launched during the quarter, which is nearly four times higher on a q-o-q basis. Q-O-Q GROWTH IN NEW However on a y-o-y basis, launches were down by 64%, indicating that a more sustained recovery is still a few quarters away. Extended Eastern Suburbs, Eastern 4x LAUNCHES IN Q3 2020 Suburbs and Thane submarkets accounted for nearly 90% of the total launches with Runwal Group, Dosti Realty, Lodha Group and Dotom Realty being the major developers who announced new projects in the quarter. However, most of these projects were largely in the form of new phases/towers launched in existing SHARE OF MID SEGMENT IN housing complexes, which were in high demand and had limited availability. A number of projects, which were held back in the previous quarter due to delayed 65% Q3 2020 LAUNCHES approvals were launched in Q3, thereby improving the aggregate launch figures. Despite the pickup in launch activity, most developers across submarkets continued to focus on clearing their unsold inventories. While construction activity gained some pace post lockdown, labour shortages at project sites, supply chain disruptions and issues surrounding availability of construction material remained key challenges. This is likely to delay possession of new homes by nearly 3-6 SHARE OF EXTENDED SUBURBS months.

Piramal Realty, Sumer Corporation, Ornate Universal, Raunak Group and Vaibhav Laxmi Shivsmruti Developers were the players who introduced new projects in the quarter. Project approval delays in Q2 were a key reason for the significantly lower launches. With a number of developers already facing a cash crunch, most of the SHARE OF MID AND AFFORDABLE focus clearly remains towards clearing their unsold inventory or completing projects which are already under construction over the past few quarters. 91% SEGMENT IN Q1 2020 LAUNCHES However, the ongoing lockdown has brought construction activity to a near-standstill in key locations across the city and labour constraints have made it increasingly difficult to complete ongoing projects.

Hok Dharavi Book-Final-Lowres-1.Pdf
DHARAVI EVOLUTION A sustainable, planning-led approach as an alternative to the current redevelopment process of Dharavi, Mumbai MAY 2008 The following pages represent the documentation of a unique DHARAVI opportunity. In what is alleged to be “Asia’s largest slum,” Dharavi, the HOK Planning Group has created a balanced and sustainable masterplan EVOLUTION for sensitive redevelopment that is based on the following principles: 1) Respect for the preservation and enhancement of local culture and its important function in the greater framework of Mumbai; 2) Creation of transitional development and the maximising of cultural potential through enhancement of the physical environment; 3) Recognition of the need to accommodate modern real estate development as part of a larger development strategy for the Bandra Kurla Complex; 4) The need for commercial and preservation approaches to be integrated and linked harmoniously as part of a strategy that could be a model for “slum” redevelopment throughout greater Mumbai and all of India. Our intent is to find a path that is both respectful and realistic. We believe that the cultural importance of the delicately scaled streets and the human-scaled physical nature of the villages are essential to Dharavi’s core lifestyle and sense of security. To rebuild with new HOK believes Dharavi needs technology, provide public services, create opportunities to continue intergenerational lifestyles and trades, and at the same time open a culturally sensitive, unified doors that lead to transitional development, is the ultimate dream for city planners. In offering this plan, hewn much like the handicrafts of the Dharavi community – by our own community of designers and creative redevelopment plan technical experts – we hope to humbly offer decision-makers a “planning- led” approach, unbiased by commercial objectives, but instead balanced by our sensitivity and experience in developing creative solutions that benefit all.
