Anand Piramal, Executive Director, Piramal Group said: “Piramal Aranya will be our company’s most significant residential development. We endeavour to build a world-class luxurious residential high-rise in the city. We have assembled one of the world’s best teams to deliver this project. The residential towers will be as good as any that you see in the finest cities of the world. We strive to delight our customers and be true to our core Piramal values and brand.”

Commenting on the location Anand added: “Byculla is blessed with tree-lined avenues and several heritage buildings such as Bhau Daji Musuem, Magen David Synagogue, Gloria Church amongst others. It was also home to the Mumbai’s most prestigious club – The Byculla Club. We hope that with several new developments in tandem with Piramal Aranya, Byculla will once again emerge as the cultural nerve centre of the city. It enjoys easy access to South Mumbai via JJ Flyover and the Eastern Freeway that has opened connectivity to northern Suburbs and Navi Mumbai. We foresee it becoming the new hub for Mumbai’s elite.”
