Villa Plots in the Hills of Karjat, by Rustomjee
Plots · Starting ₹1.5 Cr onwards
Rustomjee Karjat is a plotted residential development spread across 55 acres in the hill town of Karjat, offering freehold land parcels rather than built units, for buyers who want to design their own home against a backdrop of the Sahyadri range. Rustomjee Group was founded in 1996 by Boman R. Irani, who began reshaping Mumbai's skyline with a first-generation entrepreneur's conviction and an engineer's precision, and the group has since built a diversified portfolio spanning affordable, aspirational, luxury and ultra-luxury segments across the Mumbai Metropolitan Region.
The move into Karjat is part of a deliberate shift by Rustomjee toward plotted developments and villas in landscapes that a dense city cannot offer. Locations such as Karjat, Matheran, Kasara and Alibaug offer the chance to create a connection with both the sky and the earth, and the group sees strong potential in plotted developments, villas and eventually farmhouses in well-connected locations with natural beauty. Rustomjee Karjat is conceived in that spirit, as land for a second home or a weekend retreat that can, over time, become a primary residence.
The master plan is organised around wide internal roads, dedicated open spaces and a landscaped township layout rather than dense construction. Plot sizes are designed to be flexible, ranging from compact parcels to larger holdings capable of accommodating a substantial villa, giving buyers room to plan a home around their own brief instead of a standardised floor plate.
Karjat's proximity to Mumbai, combined with improving rail infrastructure on the Panvel-Karjat corridor, is changing the calculus for second-home buyers who previously looked only as far as Lonavala or Alibaug. A township at this scale, backed by a developer with three decades of delivery across the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, offers a way to acquire land in a maturing hill-town market without stepping outside an established brand.
For those seeking a plot to build a personal retreat within reach of the city, Rustomjee Karjat presents an early opportunity to acquire land in a location the developer itself has identified as central to its next phase of growth.

Raigad District, Maharashtra · Karjat
Karjat sits in the Western Ghats of Raigad district, a foothill town that has long served as the gateway to the Bhor Ghat on the historic Mumbai-Pune rail and road corridor. Karjat lies in the Western Ghats, roughly 60-80 km southeast of Mumbai, and is a terminus on Central Railway's Mumbai-Pune and Mumbai-Chennai corridors, with local suburban services also running toward Khopoli and Panvel. The town's riverine setting along the Ulhas, its surrounding hill forts, and its long-standing role as a weekend escape for Mumbai and Pune residents have shaped its identity as a nature-first address rather than a dense urban suburb.
For a plotted residential address, this combination of accessibility and landscape is the core value proposition. By road, Karjat lies off NH48, the old Mumbai-Pune highway, and the Mumbai-Pune Expressway via the Khopoli exit, while an upcoming suburban rail corridor is set to shorten the commute from South Mumbai further. Buyers acquiring land here are positioning themselves in a town that has functioned as an established getaway destination for decades, now transitioning toward more permanent, planned residential development.

A new suburban rail link under development by MRVC connects Panvel to Karjat via five stations, expected to cut CSMT-Karjat travel time by roughly 30 minutes and ease pressure on the existing Kalyan route.
Karjat's proximity to the Khopoli exit of the Mumbai-Pune Expressway keeps the town within a comfortable drive of both Mumbai and Pune for residents commuting or visiting on weekends.
Karjat functions as a major junction and terminus at the base of the Bhor Ghat incline, with ongoing yard expansions and infrastructure works supporting rising commuter volumes on the Mumbai-Pune line.
The new international airport in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region extends air connectivity further into the region's eastern and southern belts, gradually shortening effective travel times for towns along the Karjat corridor.
Continuing upgrades at Karjat railway station, including additional platforms and stabling infrastructure, are aimed at accommodating the town's growing role as a residential and weekend-home destination.
Karjat's location in the Western Ghats, combined with improving rail and road links to Mumbai, positions Rustomjee Karjat within a market that is transitioning from a weekend getaway to a viable second-home and long-term residential destination.
Rustomjee Group has been building across Mumbai and its extended suburbs since 1996, bringing an established track record in township planning and community-focused design to its first plotted venture in Karjat.
Plots ranging from 1,500 to 7,000 sq ft give buyers the freedom to design a compact retreat or a larger custom villa, rather than being confined to a fixed apartment layout.
The development is planned across 55 acres, large enough to accommodate wide internal roads, landscaped open spaces and community amenities alongside individual residential plots.
Plots starting at Rs. 1.5 Cr onwards, priced at approximately Rs. 10,000 per sq ft, offer relatively accessible entry into a Rustomjee-branded gated community compared to built apartment products in Mumbai.
Rustomjee has identified Karjat alongside Matheran, Kasara and Alibaug as core locations for its next phase of plotted and villa-led growth, indicating sustained developer commitment to the region.
