About us
We build about one thing at a time — and finish it
Prabhav Construction has developed residential and commercial property across the Mumbai Metropolitan Region since 2000, at a pace that lets the same team stay with a building from the first soil test to the day the keys change hands.
About Prabhav
Twenty-five years of building the way we would want to be built for
Prabhav Construction began in 2000 with a single low-rise building in Mulund and one working rule: never sell a home we do not yet have the approvals to build. Twenty-five years later that rule has not changed, and it still decides which land parcels we buy and which ones we walk away from.
We are a developer of deliberately modest volume. Twenty-odd projects across the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, roughly 2.4 million square feet, and about 1,800 families housed. That pace is a choice — it lets the same core team stay on a project from the first soil test to the day the society takes over the keys.
What we sell is a set of drawings and a date. Our job is to make sure both are honest at the point of sale and still true at handover. Every project carries its MahaRERA registration before the first booking, every buyer receives a monthly construction update, and every completed building has been handed over with its occupation certificate in hand.

What we stand for
Three statements we are willing to be measured against
Our Vision
To be the developer that Mumbai families recommend to each other — known less for the scale of what we build than for the reliability of how we build it.
Our Mission
To develop well-planned, legally clean, thoughtfully specified homes and workplaces, and to hand every one of them over on or before the date we committed to.
Our Values
Approvals before sales. Documents before promises. Daylight and open ground before saleable area. And a phone that gets answered after possession, not just before it.
Rajesh Tiwari
Founder & Managing Director
The founder
A building is the largest thing most families will ever buy on trust. That obligation does not end at possession — it is the whole business.
Rajesh Tiwari founded Prabhav Construction in 2000 after fourteen years on site as a civil engineer and project manager, having worked through every stage of construction from excavation to snagging on projects across Mumbai and Thane.
That background shaped the company's structure: Prabhav has always kept its engineering, planning and liaison functions in-house rather than outsourcing them to contractors. It is slower and more expensive, and it is the reason our delivery record reads the way it does.
Rajesh remains personally involved in land acquisition, structural design review and the monthly site walk on every active project. He holds a B.E. in Civil Engineering from Mumbai University and is a member of the Maharashtra Chamber of Housing Industry.

The team
The people who stay with a project from soil test to handover
Six functions, all in-house. On a Prabhav site the person answering your question is usually the person who made the decision.
Vikram Shetty
Head — Design & Planning
Leads architectural coordination and unit planning. Believes a floor plan is only good if it works with the furniture people already own.
Priya Nair
Head — Sales & Customer Relations
Owns the buyer relationship from the first site visit through to society formation. Fifteen years in Mumbai residential sales.
Suresh Kulkarni
Head — Legal & Liaison
Handles title diligence, MahaRERA compliance and municipal approvals. The reason our projects launch with paperwork complete.
Meera Joshi
Chief Financial Officer
Manages project finance, escrow discipline and vendor payments. Chartered Accountant with eighteen years in real estate finance.
Arjun Rane
Head — Quality & Safety
Runs third-party material testing and site safety audits. No slab is cast without his sign-off.
How we work
Four stages, in this order, every time
Most delays in this industry come from doing these steps out of sequence. We do not start one until the previous one is finished.
- 01
Land & due diligence
We buy only clear-title parcels. Title search, encumbrance check, survey verification and a soil investigation happen before the cheque is written — not after.
- 02
Design & approvals
Architecture, structure and services are coordinated in-house, then taken through municipal sanction and MahaRERA registration before a single home is offered for sale.
- 03
Construction
Our own engineering team runs the site. Third-party material testing on every batch, a documented safety audit each week, and a photographic progress report to buyers each month.
- 04
Handover & after
Snagging with the buyer present, occupation certificate in hand before possession, society formation support within ninety days, and a five-year structural warranty.
Our journey
Twenty-five years, in order
The decisions that shaped how Prabhav builds today — each one a deliberate choice rather than a milestone we drifted into.
- 2000
The first building
Prabhav Construction is founded in Mumbai. Our first project — a 24-home low-rise in Mulund — is completed and handed over in 2003.
- 2006
In-house engineering
We bring project engineering and site supervision fully in-house, ending our reliance on turnkey contractors.
- 2011
Crossing a million square feet
Cumulative delivered area passes one million square feet across nine completed residential projects in the MMR.
- 2015
Our first high-rise
Prabhav Heights breaks ground in Borivali West — a single 24-storey tower with all parking pushed below grade.
- 2017
RERA from day one
Every project in the portfolio is registered with MahaRERA within the first compliance window, ahead of the statutory deadline.
- 2021
Early delivery through a hard year
Prabhav Greens is handed over two months ahead of schedule despite pandemic disruption, with the occupation certificate in hand.
- 2023
Into commercial
Prabhav Business Square launches on Ghodbunder Road — our first Grade-A workplace and high-street retail development.
- 2025
Codename Crown
Our most ambitious residential project to date opens for first bookings: two 38-storey towers, 228 corner homes, 72% open ground.
Recognition
Awards and certifications
We do not build for awards. But when the industry notices the delivery record, it is worth recording.
