Embassy Terazza

Freehold boutique Juhu-front homes; the true sea aspect is Towers 4 and 3, upper floors. · RERA PM1180002601443 (T1-T4)

Juhu (Juhu Tara Road), Vile Parle West — freehold; DCPR-2034 Reg 33(11) PTC scheme via SRA (rehab off-site at Jogeshwari); 5 towers / 50 homes + 3 shops (this registration T1-T4 / 40); Birch Real Estate (Embassy); RERA PM1180002601443.

Overall Score7.5/10as of 09/26

A freehold, boutique, sea-facing Embassy address on Juhu Tara Road — where the sea view is real but tower- and floor-specific, today's access is slow until the Coastal Road lands, and the sale towers' completion waits on an off-site rehab handover.

Flags none

The five things that decide it
1A freehold, clean-title, genuinely low-density Juhu scheme — about 50 large homes and no slum-rehab on the plot (the rehab obligation is handed over off-site) — an uncommon combination for an SRA-route address.
2The sea view is tower-specific: Towers 4 (both homes) and 3 get the west/sea decks and clear the front-row Citizen Hotel above roughly the seventh floor, while Towers 1 and 5 face east over the Pawan Hans heliport — open, but not the ocean.
3Access is poor today — about 50 minutes to the Sea Link — and only drops to ~10 minutes when the Coastal Road access at Lido opens in roughly two years.
4Full floor area (FSI) is approved, but the sale towers' occupation certificate depends on an off-site rehab (PTC) handover in Jogeshwari being completed and OC'd — a delivery dependency on a separate scheme.
5It is priced at the Juhu-beachfront tier (about the level of Lodha Avalon) despite sitting a few rows back from the water — full price for a floor-banded sea view, so the tower and floor you pick decide the value.

Fundamentals

7.7/10Strong

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

Clear Title8.5/10
Freehold and cleanly owned — uncommon for an SRA-route address
  • The land is freehold and owned by the developer, with a clear-and-marketable opinion from Khaitan & Co and full vacant possession achieved after the last tenant surrendered in mid-2026.
  • That is an uncommon, favourable position for a scheme routed through the Slum Rehabilitation Authority — there is no government lease and no slum on this plot.
  • The only live suit is an old rent-control matter against previous owners, with no stay order, which the title opinion holds does not affect the developer's title.
  • One loose end: the title flags an unexplained shrinkage of the plot at the 2009 amalgamation with no supporting document — worth noting, not alarming.
  • The land carries a disclosed debenture mortgage (see the finance note).
Freehold on an SRA-authority scheme is rare — the SRA route here is the FSI mechanism (33(11) PTC clubbing), not a slum on this land.

Delivery7.0/10
Approved product; the OC waits on an off-site rehab handover

What you are buying is fully sanctioned — full floor area (FSI) is approved and the towers are boutique low-rise — so this is not a case of selling floors above sanction, and the plinth stage is normal early progress.

  • The dependency is sequencing: the sale towers' occupation certificate is tied to handing over a rehab (permanent transit camp) component to the authority, and that component is being built off-site in Jogeshwari (which Embassy completes under a power of attorney).
  • So completion depends on a separate, third-party scheme finishing and being OC'd — a real timing question to put to the developer, even though the product itself is certain.
Understand “Delivery” on the X-Ray page ↗
Developer Compliance7.5/10
Freshly registered and compliant, with a phasing note

The project is freshly registered and active with current filings, and the litigation and the debenture are disclosed consistently across the portal, CERSAI and the title report.

One note: the registration and plinth certificate cover four towers and forty homes, while the sanctioned layout is five towers and fifty homes plus three shops — Tower 5 and the shops sit outside this registration as a later phase.

Understand “Developer Compliance” on the X-Ray page ↗
Brochure-vs-Realityqualitative
Parked — no brochure yet
  • There is no marketing brochure in the file yet, so the render-to-reality check is parked.
  • The marketing name 'Embassy Bayview' signals a sea-view positioning that is, in fact, tower- and floor-specific — a claim to test against the view read once a marketing set is available.

Value

7.0/10Fair

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

View6.5/10
A real sea view — but Towers 4 and 3, and upper floors
  • The sea aspect is genuine but not uniform.
  • Tower 4's two homes and Tower 3 get the direct west/sea decks; Tower 2 catches the sea on the north-west off its living room rather than due west; and Towers 1 and 5 face east over the Pawan Hans heliport — an open outlook, but not the ocean.
  • It is also floor-banded.
  • The Citizen Hotel sits on the plot's west boundary at about 20 metres, so it trims the sea panorama on the lower west floors and clears above roughly the seventh — the upper floors and the ninth-floor private terraces are the true sea-view band.
  • The hotel is rumoured to be bought out and redeveloped, which is unconfirmed and could raise that wall.
  • Because this is out-of-corridor, the number here is a preliminary project blend; a high-floor Tower 3 or 4 home reads materially better than the scheme average.

Layout & Living7.5/10
Efficient full-floor plates with generous decks
  • The layout is strong: Towers 1-3 are single full-floor homes with large living/dining, servant quarters and wide wrap-around private decks on multiple faces, on a largely regular, multi-aspect plate.
  • The efficiency drafts in the mid-to-high eighties.
  • The figures are read off scanned drawings, so treat them as provisional until the area statement is confirmed.
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 Area8.0/10
Decks are owned; the one check is Tower 4's lobby
  • The decks, terraces and gardens are sold as disclosed exclusive area that you buy — not a restricted-common-area problem.
  • In Towers 1-3, one home per floor means any private lift lobby is low-risk (you enjoy it without a multi-flat carve-up).

The check to keep for Tower 4, which has two homes per floor around a split lift lobby: confirm against the registered agreement (none exists yet) whether that lobby is charged as exclusive area beyond the RERA carpet.

Understand “Non-RERA Area” on the X-Ray page ↗
Pricing6.0/10
Beachfront-tier pricing, set back from the beach
  • The expected rate is the Juhu-beachfront top tier — about the level of Lodha Avalon (roughly Rs.1.0-1.2 lakh/sqft registered, asking around Rs.1.5 lakh+).
  • But this scheme sits a few rows back from the water, its sea view is floor-banded and on only two of five towers, and access today is slow.
  • That is full price for a partial version of the beachfront asset — fair rather than cheap, with the freehold, boutique scale and brand justifying a premium.
  • Pick the tower and floor deliberately, and ask whether any part of the price is payable in cash.
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

7.6/10Strong

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

Compound Density9.0/10
Genuinely low density — no slum on the plot
  • This is a boutique compound: about 50 large homes and three shops on roughly two-and-a-half acres, with no slum-rehabilitation buildings on the plot at all — the rehab obligation is discharged off-site.
  • There is no on-compound cohabitant density driver, which is a clear positive and unusual for a scheme routed through the SRA.
Understand “Compound Density” on the X-Ray page ↗
Neighbourhood6.5/10
An established, height-capped low-rise beachfront belt
  • The surroundings are an established Juhu beachfront belt that is aviation-height-capped, so it cannot densify into high-rises — a structurally calm setting.
  • The near-term watch items are the rumoured redevelopment of the Citizen Hotel on the west boundary, an Embassy 'Future Development' pocket on the north-west corner, and Tower 5.
  • The static picture is favourable; the on-ground pipeline detail is a field item.
Understand “Neighbourhood” on the X-Ray page ↗
Peak-Hour Connectivity3.0/10
Slow today (~50 min); ~10 min once the Coastal Road opens
  • Getting to a fast artery is the weak point today — about 50 minutes to the Bandra-Worli Sea Link, typical of land-locked Juhu.
  • The offsetting upside is concrete and near-term: the Versova-Bandra Coastal Road access at Lido Cinema is expected to cut that to around 10 minutes within roughly two years.
  • The score reflects today; the upgrade is a real reason to weigh the two-year horizon.
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 vent to outside air
  • The full-floor plates put the kitchen on the external wall with an adjacent utility and deck, giving a real path to outside air — a pass, which matters for daily Indian cooking.
  • Worth a final confirmation of the kitchen opening on a legible plan.
Understand “Kitchen Ventilation” on the X-Ray page ↗
Lift Wait8.5/10
Comfortable, near-private lifts
  • Lift comfort is a strong point: in Towers 1-3 a single full-floor home has its own two-lift lobby plus a service lift, and the wait-time model returns a comfortable grade across the luxury band and even with slow lifts.
  • For a low-density boutique stack this is well provisioned.
Even at a conservative 2 m/s the modelled peak interval stays in the ~40-second band — comfortable for one to two homes per floor.
Understand “Lift Wait” on the X-Ray page ↗
Water Adequacyqualitative
Water conditions still to be read from the SRA approval
  • Water adequacy is not yet scored — the Hydraulic-Engineer and water-No-Objection Certificate conditions have not been read from the SRA approval, and the model agreement carries no unit count to reconcile.
  • The low density (about 50 homes) eases demand, but the approval conditions decide it; treat as an open item.
Understand “Water Adequacy” on the X-Ray page ↗
Parking9.0/10
Genuine self-park with a very high bay ratio

All parking is in two basements reached by a drivable ramp, with individually marked covered bays and no car-lifts, puzzle racks or mechanical parking — you drive to your own bay.

Provision is generous: roughly 207 car bays plus visitor bays for 40 homes, about five per home, over just two basement levels. Among the strongest parking in the Juhu set.

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 ↗
Community8.0/10
A professional, HNI community
  • The buyer profile reads professional and HNI-dominant: full-floor and large-format luxury homes under the Embassy brand on the Juhu seafront at a very high ticket, with no rehab community on the plot.
  • Whether any part of the price moves in cash is still to be verified.
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?

MEDIUM
Sale OC is linked to an OFF-SITE PTC/rehab handover at Jogeshwari (third-party scheme)
MarketedPossession 31/12/2031
DocumentedPOSITIVE on certainty: FULL floor area (FSI) approval is in place and the scheme is low-density with not much left to build. The residual is the OC gate — the incentive Sale floor area (FSI) (7,134.85 sqm) and sale OC are co-related (C18/C65) to the off-site PTC/rehab component in M/s Parth Construction's Jogeshwari (E) scheme (completed by Birch under POA). So the sale-tower OC depends on the off-site SRA unit handover being COMPLETE WITH OC. Per C61 this is a timing/sequencing item on a fully-sanctioned product, not a product-certainty risk. Frame as a question for the buyer.
Full floor area (FSI) is approved and the scheme is low-density, so what remains is the OC gate: the sale towers' occupation certificate depends on the off-site Jogeshwari rehab (PTC) handover being completed and OC'd — a question worth asking the developer.

MEDIUM
Access is poor today (~50 min to Sea Link) but ~10 min once the Coastal Road (Lido) opens
Marketedn/a
DocumentedToday the drive to the nearest fast artery (Bandra-Worli Sea Link) is ~50 minutes — poor, land-locked Juhu access. The under-construction Versova-Bandra Coastal Road access at Lido Cinema (~2 years out) is expected to cut this to ~10 minutes — a large, near-term contingent upgrade to connectivity.
Getting out is slow today — about 50 minutes to the Sea Link — but the coming Coastal Road access at Lido should cut it to roughly 10 minutes within a couple of years.

LOW-MED
Out-of-corridor sea view is unverified and floor-banded (marketed 'Bayview')
Marketed'Embassy Bayview' — sea-facing Juhu residences
DocumentedOrientation confirmed (Rexray field + Cesium massing): the sea/west premium is real but concentrated on TOWER 4 (both units) and TOWER 3; Tower 2 gets an north-west partial; Towers 1 and 5 face EAST (Pawan Hans heliport, not sea). The plot is ~300-350 m back from the beach; the near west arc is the Citizen Hotel (20 m, CTS 960) which clips the LOWER west floors and clears above ~F7, so the sea aspect is an upper-floor asset (~F7-F9 + 9th-floor private terraces). OOC -> never sealed blind; front-row-to-beach heights beyond Citizen Hotel still a field ask.
The sea view is real but tower- and floor-specific: Towers 4 and 3 get the west/sea decks (upper floors clear the front-row Citizen Hotel), while Towers 1 and 5 face east — not the whole scheme is 'sea-facing'.

LOW-MED
Citizen Hotel (20 m, on the west boundary) clips the low-floor sea panorama, esp. Tower 4
Marketed'Bayview' panoramic sea view
DocumentedThe Citizen Hotel sits at CTS 960 on the plot's west boundary, directly in the sea sightline of the west-facing towers (T4 most of all). At ~20 m (~6-7 storeys) it partial-blocks the LOWER west floors and clears above ~F6-F7, so the panoramic sea view is an upper-floor asset. It is rumoured to be bought out / redeveloped (UNCONFIRMED) — if it rises, it becomes a taller west wall (C20 front-row-regime threat).
The Citizen Hotel on the west boundary trims the sea panorama on the lower west floors (mainly Tower 4) and clears higher up; talk of it being bought out and redeveloped is unconfirmed and could change the view either way.

LOW-MED
Private lift-lobby exclusive-area check — Tower 4 (2/floor) more than Towers 1-3 (1/floor)
Marketedn/a
DocumentedIn Towers 1-3 (ONE flat per floor) any private lift-lobby included as exclusive area is low BMC-enforcement risk (lobby-as-bonus, Nautilus pattern). Tower 4 (TWO flats per floor around a split core) is trickier — a multi-flat exclusive-lobby exposure (Crown-adjacent) if that lobby area is sold beyond RERA carpet. No registered the agreement exists yet (0 sold) to size it.
In the single-flat-per-floor towers a private lift lobby is low-risk; in Tower 4 (two flats per floor) it's worth checking whether the shared lobby is sold as exclusive area — verify against the registered agreement when one exists.

LOW
Aviation height cap binds — a boutique low-rise by regulation (protects and limits the view)
MarketedLow-density Juhu sea-facing residences
DocumentedAAI Juhu height NOCs cap the towers at ~31-44 m AMSL, which binds before floor area (FSI) on this near-aerodrome plot (C66). This keeps the scheme boutique low-rise (G+7 to G+9) with in-situ character, and it also caps the surrounding belt — protecting the sea aspect from future high-rise while limiting the subject's own height upside.
Airport height limits cap the towers at roughly 31-44 m, so this is a low-rise boutique scheme by regulation — which both keeps the neighbourhood low and limits the building's own height.

Rs.882.5 cr Catalyst debenture on the land — disclosed, non-convertible
Marketedn/a
DocumentedBirch has mortgaged the land to Catalyst Trusteeship for Rs.882.5 cr of NON-CONVERTIBLE debentures (Rs.782.5 cr drawn). Disclosed on the portal, in CERSAI and the finance letter (C10 consistent). Non-convertible -> no equity-conversion/control risk (not the C05 fund-convertible flag). Ordinary large-project structured financing; releases as flats sell.
The developer has an Rs.882.5 crore debenture secured on the land — fully disclosed, non-convertible, and normal for a project this size; not a control risk.

Prior-owner tenancy suit (RAD 200002/2019) — no injunction, does not affect title
Marketedn/a
DocumentedThe one disclosed live matter is a Small Causes rent-control suit (Ketan Hule vs GRPL/Eknath), part-heard, no injunction, against PRIOR owners; the title opinion holds it does not affect Birch's title, and vacant possession of the whole plot has been achieved (last tenant surrendered 11/06/2026).
The only live suit is an old tenancy dispute against previous owners with no stay order; the developer holds clear title and vacant possession.

Sanctioned layout is 5 towers/50 flats+3 shops; this RERA covers only T1-T4/40
Marketedn/a
DocumentedThe layout/Proforma sanction 5 towers (50 flats) + 3 shops; the current registration and plinth Commencement Certificate cover only T1-T4 (40 flats). Tower 5 (+~10) and the 3 shops sit outside this registration. Aviation NOCs even reference T1-T7 in the envelope. Reconcile the phasing/registration for Tower 5 and the T6/T7 envelope references.
The approved plan has five towers and fifty homes plus three shops, but this registration covers only the first four towers (forty homes) — Tower 5 is a later phase.

CRZ-II coastal plot — MOEF/CRZ NOCs gate plinth Commencement Certificate
Marketedn/a
DocumentedThe plot falls in CRZ-II; MOEF and CRZ NOCs are conditions precedent to plinth Commencement Certificate (C29). CRZ clearance (11/05/2026 MCZMA meeting) records '5 wings, 50 residential flats + 3 shops'; SEIAA Environmental Clearance granted 20/07/2026. Coastal-regime conditions to be tracked.
It's a coastal (CRZ-II) plot; the coastal and environmental clearances are in hand but carry conditions worth tracking.

POSITIVE
Freehold land on an SRA-authority (33(11) PTC) scheme — clean title
Marketedn/a
DocumentedUnusually for an SRA-authority scheme, the land is FREEHOLD and owned by the developer (Birch), with a clean & marketable title opinion save the Catalyst mortgage. There is no MHADA/collector lease and no on-plot slum — so no leasehold renewal premium (C03 N/A) and no on-plot rehab cohabitation.
The land is freehold and cleanly owned by the developer — no government lease, no on-plot slum — which is a strong, uncommon positive for an SRA-route scheme.

POSITIVE
Boutique, very low on-plot density (~50 flats, no on-plot rehab)
MarketedExclusive low-density residences
Documented~50 large/full-floor flats + 3 shops on ~2.5 acres with the entire rehab obligation discharged off-site -> very low intra-plot density and no cohabitant nuisance driver.
Roughly 50 large homes on 2.5 acres with no slum-rehab on the plot make this a genuinely low-density, exclusive compound.

POSITIVE
Genuine basement self-park with a very high bay ratio
Marketedn/a
DocumentedSelf-park across 2 basements via drivable ramps (no car-lift/puzzle/mechanical), ~5.2 covered dedicated bays per unit plus visitor bays. Anchor A (C14/C64).
You drive to your own covered bay via a ramp, with roughly five bays per home — excellent, genuine self-park.

Five questions to ask before you commit
  1. Where does the off-site Jogeshwari rehab (PTC) component stand, and is it completed and OC'd — since the sale towers' occupation certificate depends on it?
  2. For a true sea view, which tower and floor? (Towers 4 and 3, upper floors clear the Citizen Hotel; Towers 1 and 5 face east.)
  3. Is the Citizen Hotel on the west boundary being bought out or redeveloped, and to what height — it governs the lower-floor sea view?
  4. What is Tower 5's timeline, and what is the 'Future Development' pocket on the north-west corner?
  5. What is the registered price and carpet for a first sale, is any part in cash, and — in Tower 4 — is the shared lift lobby charged as exclusive area beyond the RERA carpet?
