We have a substantial and rapidly expanding presence in MMR, having successfully launched/delivered projects in the western suburbs of Mumbai. Prioritizing customer satisfaction, we endeavor to understand the preferences and requirements of our customers and incorporate them into project planning and execution with speed, resulting in an elevated brand experience. We look forward to leveraging this goodwill and visibility of the Kolte-Patil brand in the MMR region. Society redevelopment projects offer a significant, multi-year opportunity for trusted players such as Kolte-Patil and with a decade-long presence in MMR, we are well-placed to ride the momentum.”
