Mumbai, Sep 1 (IANS) The real estate sector in the financial capital is witnessing a significant increase in demand thanks to stable interest rates and a pipeline of new projects, industry experts said on Sunday.
The Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) region is experiencing significant investment, driven by increasing property values and improved connectivity.
