According to realty sources, the flat was sold last month by Lodha Developers to Vishad P Mafatlal and Rupal V Mafatlal; both the buyers have mentioned Mafatlal Centre, Nariman Point, as their contact address during the purchase.

The total amount paid by the Mafatlals is Rs 88,99,30,000, while the ready reckoner rate for the flat is Rs 82,87,51,500. Apart from this, the Mafatlal’s paid Rs 4.44 crore as stamp duty to register the flat with the state government’s registration department. The per sq ft rate comes close to Rs 90,000. The flats being on lower floor could be the reason for it going cheaper than earlier deals. (Floor rise usually charged adds to the cost) Vishad Mafatalal is MD of Mafatlal Denim and is associated with few other companies.

A detailed email sent to the Mafatlals did not elicit any response.
