Overall Score6.0/10as of 09/26

A whole-floor Worli home, fairly priced just off the seafront - if you're okay with an unresolved 2023 title claim from the ousted previous developer, and a delivery that hinges on a Sewree slum scheme's transit wing getting finished.

Flags none

The apartment and the location are genuinely good - a private full floor, quick coastal-road access, and a fair price for a home just off the seafront. But two things can move the number: an unresolved 2023 pendency from the ousted prior developer, and the fact that ~42% of the sale area is FSI swapped in from a slum scheme in Sewree - this project must finish that scheme's transit-camp wing (now at its 6th slab) for your occupation certificate. Clear both, and it's a shortlist.

The five things that decide it
1The home itself - a private full floor (~3,200 sqft carpet), one family per plate, its own lift lobby, kitchens that breathe outside.
2The sea view is floor-banded, not guaranteed - you clear Imperial Worli and Lodha SeaFace only from the upper floors, and a ~200m tower may rise to the south-west.
3the title opinion says 'no litigation', yet its own search shows a 2023 pendency by the ousted earlier developer. Get it cleared.
4about 42% of the sale area is floor area (FSI) swapped from a slum-redevelopment scheme in Sewree (in exchange, this project builds that scheme's transit-camp wing, only at its 6th slab so far), and finishing it can gate your occupation certificate; the developer also has no completed project of this scale on record.
5Location, access and price - Worli, ~5 min to the coastal road, strong self-park, and priced below true seafront homes.

Fundamentals

5.5/10Mixed

Pillar score is the average of the scored attributes below; some attributes are qualitative and carry questions rather than a number.

Clear Title5.0/10
A 999-year municipal (MCGM) leasehold - clean except for a 2023 pendency filed by the previous, ousted developer

You'd buy a sub-lease under the society's 999-year lease from the municipality (about 930 years left), so tenure length isn't the issue.

  • The developer's own title report calls the title clear and 'no litigation' - but the 30-year search it attaches lists a 2023 'List of Pendency' filed by the earlier developer whose contract was terminated in 2019.
  • That contradiction sits unresolved.
The land is municipal (MCGM) leasehold held by the Sea Face House society; you join that existing society, alongside its original members.
What to ask the builder
  • Can you show the current court status of the 2023 pendency filed by the previous developer?

Delivery5.0/10
Approved in full - but ~42% of the sale area is floor area (FSI) swapped from a Sewree slum scheme

The whole tower is already sanctioned on the approved plans, so the fact that construction is only at plinth is normal staging, not a sign of missing approvals.

  • The catch is where the building rights come from.
  • This project owes 3,567 sqm of rehab/transit housing - 'Permanent Transit Camps' (PTCs).
  • Rather than build them in Worli, the developer is building them inside a separate slum-redevelopment scheme in Sewree (an adjoining ward, a few km away) as 'Wing-A', and in return this Worli tower gets an equal amount of sale floor area (FSI) - about 42% of its saleable area.
  • So a big slice of what you're buying is floor area (FSI) swapped in from that Sewree scheme.
  • As of the draft agreement that Sewree transit wing was built only to its 6th slab, and completing it can become a condition of your building's occupation certificate.
  • Add a developer with no completed project of this scale on record and a payment plan that asks ~50% by plinth, and delivery is the thing to diligence hardest.
What to ask the builder
  • Is my occupation certificate tied to completing the Permanent Transit Camp wing in the Sewree scheme, and where is that wing now?

Developer Compliance7.0/10
Filings are current and legible

The RERA record is up to date and readable - registration, approvals and quarterly updates are in order.

Understand “Developer Compliance” on the X-Ray page ↗
Brochure-vs-Reality5.0/10
Early days on sales

A couple of homes are sold and a few booked out of 28 - modest traction for a project registered in early 2025, which is typical for a boutique, big-ticket tower but worth watching given an unproven brand.

Value

6.8/10Fair

Pillar score is the average of the scored attributes below; some attributes are qualitative and carry questions rather than a number.

View6.0/10
A real sea view - but it depends on your floor
  • This home sits just off the seafront: the sea edge is held by Imperial Worli (about 153m) and Lodha SeaFace (up to about 176m).
  • Your homes clear them and open to the Worli seafront from the upper floors; lower and mid floors look into those towers.

The deep podium helps by lifting even the first sale floor high off the street. The one thing to keep an eye on is a speculative tower to the south-west that could one day rise to about 200m.

Today: Upper floors open to the Worli seafront over the front row; lower and mid floors look into Imperial Worli and Lodha SeaFace.By 2032: A speculative ~200m SRA sale tower to the south-west could clip the SW and lower-floor aspect if it's sanctioned and built.
Sea Face House, Worli — the plot and what surrounds it
Rexray View Map: Sea Face House, Worli and its surrounding development
What to ask the builder
  • From exactly which floor does the sea view clear the buildings in front?
Understand “View” on the X-Ray page ↗
Layout & Living8.0/10
A genuinely private full floor

Each home is a whole floor - one family per plate, its own lift lobby, no shared corridor - which is about as efficient and private as a Mumbai apartment gets.

Four en-suite bedrooms, a large sea-facing living/dining, a proper kitchen that vents outside, servant quarters and generous decks. Only the gently curved corners cost a little efficiency.

What to ask the builder
  • The west-face glass specification — brand, glazing thickness, and the heat-trapping (SHGC / U-value) number.
Understand “Layout & Living” on the X-Ray page ↗
Non-RERA Area7.0/10
Looks clean - confirm on the real agreement
  • The carpet area and the deck are stated separately, which is the honest way to sell.
  • Because only a draft agreement exists so far, confirm on your executed agreement that no service areas or terraces are quietly loaded into the price.
What to ask the builder
  • On the final agreement, is anything beyond RERA carpet + the named deck charged to me?
Understand “Non-RERA Area” on the X-Ray page ↗
Pricing6.0/10
A fair, earned discount to the true seafront
  • Expect roughly Rs.80,000-1,00,000 a square foot on carpet, rising with the floor.
  • That's below the Rs.1.5 lakh-plus that genuine seafront towers command - a discount that's earned here, because the home sits just off the seafront and the view is floor-dependent rather than guaranteed.
What to ask the builder
  • What is the all-in cost — including stamp duty, registration and goods-and-services tax (GST)?
  • What is the rate on the area I actually own (carpet plus deck) versus the marketed area?
  • What have recent apartments in this building / micro-market actually registered at?

Livability

6.7/10Fair

Pillar score is the average of the scored attributes below; some attributes are qualitative and carry questions rather than a number.

Compound Density4.5/10
You share the building with the original members

This is a society redevelopment: roughly half the tower rehouses the society's own original members on the lower floors, with the sale homes above (the split is around the 21st/22nd floor).

The slum families from the clubbed scheme are rehoused in a separate building off the plot, not in your tower - but this is still a mixed, high-rehab building rather than an all-new one.

Understand “Compound Density” on the X-Ray page ↗
Neighbourhood4.5/10
A busy redevelopment neighbourhood
  • Worli Estate around you is mid-redevelopment - Prestige Jijamata, Godrej Trilogy, Hubtown Celeste, Embassy Citadel and a couple of speculative schemes are all within about 500m.
  • Expect years of neighbouring construction and traffic before it settles.
Understand “Neighbourhood” on the X-Ray page ↗
Peak-Hour Connectivity8.0/10
Quick onto the coastal road

About five minutes to the nearest coastal-road entry on a weekday - among the best access in the corridor.

Fixable? Builders like to sell connectivity as kilometres from a landmark — but the real test is time, not distance: how long you would actually be stuck, at peak hour, just getting to a fast arterial like a Sea Link or Coastal Road on-ramp. The access route and the on-ramp are municipal and outside the developer's control, so there is no fix to offer — only an honest read of the peak-hour reality today and the area's trajectory by 2032, once the surrounding pipeline has built out.
Understand “Peak-Hour Connectivity” on the X-Ray page ↗
Kitchen Ventilation9.0/10
Kitchens breathe to the outside

The kitchen opens to a service area with an external opening, so it gets real outside air rather than recirculating - a genuine plus at this price.

Understand “Kitchen Ventilation” on the X-Ray page ↗
Lift Wait8.0/10
Comfortable, quick lifts

Two passenger lifts plus a fire lift and a service lift for a stack where each floor is a single home - so almost no waiting, even at peak.

With one family per floor, the morning peak barely forms a queue - a low single-digit wait.
Understand “Lift Wait” on the X-Ray page ↗
Water Adequacyqualitative
Water sanction not yet legible

The water/hydraulic-No-Objection Certificate detail isn't in the documents we have - a question for the builder rather than a red flag.

What to ask the builder
  • Can you share the hydraulic/water NOC and sanctioned tank capacity?
Understand “Water Adequacy” on the X-Ray page ↗
Parking7.5/10
Drive to your own covered bay

Self-park throughout - you drive up a ramp to a dedicated covered bay, no car lifts or stack machines, with roughly five bays per home and visitor parking provided.

The only mild downside is that parking spreads across many podium levels served by a single two-way ramp.

Build Planning & Qualitynot yet scored
A checklist to verify with the builder — Rexray will score this attribute as the field database grows.

Rexray's database will, over time, be enriched with the attention to detail and quality ethos of each builder. For now, below is the checklist you should verify with the builder before you decide.

What to ask the builder
  • Who's the architect, and what comparable have they delivered?
  • Do the lobbies need lights during the day?
  • Gym/pool/lobby sized for how many residents? (gym sqft / residents)
  • Does this unit's layout meet your Vastu requirements (entry, kitchen, master)?
  • Can a fire tender or an ambulance reach the lobby?
  • Who is actually building it?
  • Mivan or conventional — and how are the tie-holes grouted and cracks controlled?
  • What's the realistic floor-cycle, and how does the monsoon factor in?
  • Which steel/cement? Facade glazing spec? MEP contractor? STP/solar?
  • Which marble/fittings exactly? Which window system? VRV brand?
  • Deck/bathroom waterproofing system? How's the facade sealed into the structure?
  • Gypsum or block internal walls — and are the party walls insulated?
  • Does the back-up generator power my whole flat, or only the common areas?
  • Is the parking solo, tandem, or a mechanical stack — and how wide are the bays?
Understand “Build Planning & Quality” on the X-Ray page ↗
Community5.5/10
HNI homes in a mixed building

Whole-floor homes at this price draw a high-net-worth crowd, but you'll share the building and society with the redeveloped original members and sit in a dense, mixed redevelopment pocket - not a single-profile luxury enclave.

What to ask the builder
  • What is the ticket-size range in the building — the gap between the cheapest and the most expensive home?
  • Is the building vegetarian-only, or skewed to a single community?
  • Is it owner-occupied, or investor- and tenant-heavy?
  • What is the pet policy?

Documented[REG] The enclosed 30-year search records 'List of Pendency dated 05/12/2023, CTS 887, M/S. SHAH ASSOCIATES, BBE1-7793/2023' - a registered pendency by the 2011 developer (Shah Associates/Hubtown) whose Deed of Re-Development was terminated in 2019. The certificate declares 'No Litigation' and does not address it.
MED-HIGH
~42% of the sale floor area (FSI) is swapped in from a Sewree slum scheme, whose transit-camp wing this project must finish.
Marketed[MKT] A standalone Worli Sea Face luxury tower, construction-linked payments.
Documented[REG] the agreement recitals W-KK: the 33(11) Worli scheme is clubbed with a 33(10) SRA slum scheme - 'Sewree Koliwada CHS Ltd.' at Ganapatrao Mahadik Marg, Sewree (F/South ward), developer RKEPL (SPV of M/s R.K. Builders; SRA Revised LOI 50,344.28 sqm). The Worli scheme owes 3,566.74 sqm of Permanent Transit Camps (PTCs); under a registered PTC Agreement (01/08/2023, amended 06/09/2024) the PTC is built as 'Wing-A of Building No.1' in the Sewree scheme in exchange for an equal 3,566.74 sqm free-sale floor area (FSI) shifted to the Worli tower (Clubbing LOI 24/08/2023). Permitted because the two plots are in adjoining wards (clubbing rule: same/adjoining wards or within 5 km). As of the draft the agreement, RKEPL had built the PTC Wing to its 6th slab only.
MED-HIGH
The payment plan front-loads ~50% of the price by plinth, on a tower certified only to plinth.
Marketed[MKT] Standard construction-linked payments.
Documented[REG] Deviation report schedule: 10% booking + 10% raft + 10% each basement + 10% plinth = ~50% by plinth; only 5% held to possession/OC. The sale tower's Commencement Certificate is at plinth.
MEDIUM
About 42% of the sale tower's buildable area is floor area (FSI) shifted in from the clubbed slum scheme.
Marketed[MKT] A premium redevelopment on a 2,120 sqm Worli plot.
Documented[REG] Free-sale floor area (FSI) 8,481.44 sqm at floor area (FSI) 4.0 is fully sanctioned/consumed on the Proforma A (no ungranted future-scheme floor area (FSI)). BUT the agreement recitals show ~3,566.74 sqm of it is 'Shifted Free-Sale floor area (FSI)'/PTC from the RKEPL 33(10) scheme; the plot's own zonal floor area (FSI) is far smaller.

Roughly half the tower rehouses the society's original members, floor-by-floor below the sale flats.
Marketed[MKT] A boutique full-floor luxury tower.
Documented[REG/GOV] Tenement statement: ~26 existing society residential members (+1 commercial) rehoused on floors 12-21; ~26 sale units on floors 22-45. Same-building co-habitation (C02/C51).
MEDIUM
The proforma agreement is heavily promoter-tilted, including a first charge that outranks the buyer's home loan.
Marketed[MKT] A RERA-model agreement.
Documented[REG] Deviation report adds: promoter's first/overriding/paramount lien over the flat AND car park ranking above any buyer mortgage (cl. xvi/31); a clause disclaiming ALL marketing/brochure representations; perpetual, unchangeable building name + IP owned by promoter; buyer cannot assign/sublet without consent while promoter may freely assign to affiliates; asymmetric jurisdiction (promoter may sue in any number of courts; buyer waives forum objection); non-refundable deposits.

Marketed[MKT] 'Sea Face' branding / Worli sea views.
Documented[REXRAY-FIELD] cesium massing: the plot fronts the 27.45m A.G. Khan Road (second row). north-west sea arc carries Imperial Worli (top 153m @191m) and Lodha SeaFace (top 176m @281m); a speculative Sterling SRA sale tower (~202m, SW @385m) could rise as tall as this 192m tower. The 192m height + deep podium clear the EXISTING front row at upper floors only.
LOW-MED
Planning-authority and unit-count labels need a quick reconcile across sources.
Documented[REG] Portal names planning authority 'SRA' while the sanctioned plan title block cites 'Reg 33(11) DCPR 2034'; portal shows 28 sale apartments vs the layout tenement statement's 26 sale units.
Five questions to ask before you commit
  1. Is my occupation certificate tied to completing the off-site slum-rehab building?
  2. What is the current status of the 2023 pendency filed by the earlier developer?
  3. From exactly which floor does the sea view clear the buildings in front?
  4. What completed project shows the developer's delivery and finish quality?
  5. Can the ~50%-by-plinth payment schedule be renegotiated, and does the builder's charge rank above my home loan?
