Birla Niyaara Tower C Launch Deferred to H1 FY27 Due to Supreme Court-Related Approval Delays

Tower C Launch Deferred as Regulatory Approvals Extend

Aditya Birla Real Estate disclosed during Q3 FY26 earnings that Tower C at Birla Niyaara, Worli, has been pushed to H1 FY27 owing to unforeseen approval delays stemming from a Supreme Court order. The company's Board of Directors meeting on January 28, 2026 preceded the earnings call on January 29, 2026.

The deferral represents a shift in the developer's earlier timeline. The company had previously expected the Tower C launch in March, which would have aligned with the final quarter of FY26. The new window of H1 FY27—comprising October 2026 through March 2027—reflects the regulatory hurdles now encountered.
