Mumbai Property Law
Expert Property Lawyer in Mumbai
Why Mumbai Property Law Needs a Specialist
A property lawyer in Mumbai is not the same as a property lawyer anywhere else in India. Mumbai has its own legal instruments the CTS (City Survey) system for title identification, the Maharashtra Ownership Flats Act, the Maharashtra Co-operative Societies Act, MahaRERA, and a housing society ecosystem that governs how a large proportion of Mumbai’s residential property is owned and managed. You need someone who works within this system daily.
Our property lawyers in Mumbai are practising advocates before the Bombay City Civil Court, MahaRERA, DRT Mumbai, and the Bombay High Court. Our head office is in Sanpada, Navi Mumbai at the centre of the Mumbai Metropolitan Region. We cover South Mumbai to Panvel, Andheri to Thane, without the delays of outsourcing local court work to someone we have not personally vetted.
Whether it is a title search before you buy a flat in a redeveloped building, a CTS verification for a plot in Thane, a MahaRERA complaint against a builder who delayed your Navi Mumbai project, or a housing society redevelopment dispute we have handled it before, and we can handle yours. Also relevant: our SARFAESI and DRT practice for lenders and borrowers dealing with secured property enforcement in Mumbai.
We also publish practical guides on Mumbai property law see our legal blog for articles on MahaRERA complaints, CHS redevelopment, and stamp duty in Maharashtra.

Property Legal Areas Unique to Mumbai
CHS Redevelopment Advisory
Cooperative Housing Society redevelopment is one of Mumbai's most legally contested areas. We represent societies and individual members in developer negotiations, member objections, and disputes before the Registrar of Cooperative Societies and the Bombay High Court. Read our CHS redevelopment guide.
CTS Number & Property Card Verification
CTS numbers are the primary title identifier in Mumbai. Before any purchase in the city, we extract and analyse CTS records, property cards, mutation entries, and encumbrance history then give you a clear legal opinion on whether the title is clean. See our full title search service.
SRA & Slum Rehabilitation Matters
SRA properties carry complex Maharashtra-specific transfer restrictions and eligibility conditions. Buyers, occupants, and developers often get this wrong. We advise on the legal status of SRA properties, eligible entitlements, and the correct procedure for any SRA-related transaction or dispute.
MahaRERA Complaints
Possession delays, specification changes, refund denials we represent homebuyers before MahaRERA across Mumbai, Thane, and Navi Mumbai. Fast, focused, and effective. Read: How to File a MahaRERA Complaint.
7/12 Extract & Revenue Records
For agricultural or conversion plots in the Mumbai region Thane, Raigad, Palghar districts 7/12 extracts and revenue records are the key ownership documents. We verify these and advise on the legal status of land conversion before any investment decision.
MHADA & Government Housing
MHADA properties have specific Maharashtra regulations on transfer eligibility, resale restrictions, and NOC requirements. We handle the legal process for buying, selling, and transferring MHADA properties ensuring compliance at every step. Also see: MHADA Property Transfer Guide.
