Practice Area 03

Land & Development

Land sourcing, feasibility, joint development structuring and development strategy for owners, developers and capital partners.

Overview

How we approach it

Land is where value in Indian real estate is created — and where the costliest mistakes are made. Zoning pathways, title complexity, infrastructure timing and landowner expectations all determine whether a parcel becomes a successful development or a stranded position.

We advise on both sides of the land market: helping developers and investors identify, evaluate and structure land positions, and helping landowners understand what their land is worth and how to realise its value through sale or joint development.
