Mumbai: Piramal Realty on Tuesday said it has agreed to buy a 3.2 acre land from Mumbai-based real estate developer Nirmal Lifestyle Ltd for Rs153 crore.

The land is located, adjacent to Piramal Revanta—a residential project currently being developed by Piramal Realty at Mulund area in Mumbai, the company said in a statement.

“At Piramal Realty, we are committed to enhancing the value proposition for our customers.

In August, Nirmal raised Rs570 crore of debt financing from L&T Finance Holdings Ltd and signed a joint development agreement with L&T Realty Ltd for a residential project in suburban Mumbai.

Nirmal, which owns the land in Mulund, brought in L&T Realty to develop the residential project.
