Piramal Revanta is one those projects that is centrally located and enjoys excellent connectivity from LBS Marg and the proposed Goregaon-Mulund Link Road (GMLR). Residents in Mumbai can have the advantage to enjoy the best of both worlds; new-age infrastructure as well as calm and serene greenery.
Exceptional Connectivity
Mulund is where all ‘roads’ converge. The international airport is less than 20 kilometres away, via the Eastern Express Highway. The Highway, Airoli bridge and its parallel-running LBS Marg allow commuters to reach offices and industrial belts in the Bandra-Kurla Complex, MIDC, Sion, and Airoli within a short span of time. Other major roads such as Ghodbunder road enable excellent linkages to Dahisar and the Ahmedabad highway. Mulund’s railway station ferries commuters to downtown Mumbai and Navi Mumbai, typically within an hour.

Closer To Nature
There is an emerging trend of Biophilic design witnessed, which helps connect the natural environment by using natural materials, spatial design, and views or access points to nature. This growing trend is seen in various upcoming properties, including Piramal Revanta, a new-age luxury high-rise development, nestled in the heart of Mulund.
