Introduction
Property news about cricketers usually revolves around the player. This one is different. Radhika Rahane, an interior designer and the wife of Ajinkya Rahane, has bought two apartments in a single
Dadar West tower for about ₹24.75 crore, going by registration papers. The deal puts a spotlight on Dadar luxury apartments, a pocket of Mumbai that rarely gets the glitz of Worli but never runs short of buyers.
The Deal in Brief
The agreements were registered on 29 October 2026, with Kohinoor Planet Constructions as the seller. Both homes sit on the 24th floor of Oceana, on Keluskar Road South. Property data firms, including Liases Foras, put the combined price at ₹24,75,97,750. It is a very exact figure, and it shows how closely registration records can be tracked.
Flat by Flat
The bigger home has a carpet area of about 1,913 square feet and cost ₹13.97 crore. It comes with three car parking spaces. The second flat measures roughly 1,478 square feet and cost ₹10.79 crore. Together they carry six parking spaces, four on the podium level and two in the second basement. Carpet area, in case you are new to it, is the usable floor space inside the walls.
Rate Per Square Foot
Add the two carpet areas and you reach roughly 3,392 square feet. Divide the price by that, and the rate lands near ₹73,000 per square foot of carpet area. Six parking spaces come with the homes, which matters in a crowded neighbourhood. Still, this is a new tower on a high floor, so it is not a number to apply to all Dadar luxury apartments. Older buildings nearby will price very differently.
Stamp Duty
Stamp duty on the deal came to ₹1,23,79,900, or about ₹1.24 crore. That works out to roughly five percent of the price. It is a useful reminder for anyone budgeting a purchase of this size. Stamp duty is paid on top of the price and rises in step with it. Legal fees and registration charges are extra.
Waiting for 2028
These homes are not ready yet. The agreements list possession on or before 31 December 2028, which is about two years away. Buying under construction often spreads payments across stages. But it also means waiting, and delays are always possible. Are you comfortable paying rent elsewhere for those years? Most buyers forget to ask.
About Dadar West
Dadar West sits in the middle of the city, with Shivaji Park as its green heart and the Western and Central rail lines both close by. Offices in Lower Parel, Worli and Bandra Kurla Complex are within reach. The area has old Marathi roots, busy markets and, increasingly, tall towers that appeal to families wanting space without leaving the centre. Dadar luxury apartments are, in short, a bet on convenience.
A Wider Pattern
The timing fits a bigger picture. Knight Frank India counted 72,804 residential sales in Mumbai from January to September 2026, the strongest nine month stretch since 2018. Between April and September, homes priced at ₹5 crore or more recorded about ₹32,623 crore in sales, according to Lighthouse Luxury. One celebrity purchase does not make a trend. It does sit comfortably inside one.
Buyer Lessons
What can an ordinary buyer take from this? First, check the carpet area, not the marketing figure, because carpet area decides what you can actually use. Second, read the possession date in the agreement and ask about the developer’s record. Third, budget for stamp duty and parking from day one. Whether you pick one flat or two, and whichever of the Dadar luxury apartments you shortlist, make the numbers work for you, not for the headline.
Summary
Radhika Rahane’s purchase of two Dadar luxury apartments in Oceana, registered on 29 October 2026 for about ₹24.75 crore, covers roughly 3,392 square feet of carpet area, six parking spaces and a possession date of December 2028. The rate works out near ₹73,000 per square foot. For buyers, the lessons are simple: understand carpet area, budget for stamp duty and waiting time, and compare prices carefully before committing to a central Mumbai home. Treat the registration data as a guide, not a guarantee of future prices.
