Emphasis is on size i.e. No major builders are selling small units although there is huge demand for this segment. Offices of 500 sq ft size also on offer at an attractive price of Rs 29.9 lakh backed by a spread-over of 2 years.

Kandivli, Mumbai -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/08/2012 -- Royal Palms Estates, Mumbai's leading developer, has introduced an innovative real-estate option to enable buyers to get their own offices they had always dreamed of. Royal Palms Estates' new ready-possession project "Smart Business Suites" at Goregaon East in Aarey Colony comprises of 96 units ranging from sizes in multiples of 500 sq ft each. The company is offering these business suites or commercial units at an attractive price of Rs.29.9 lakh for a 500 sq ft unit which comes to about Rs 6,100/- per sq ft - a rate unimaginable within Mumbai municipal limits. What's more, a buyer does not have to pay the full amount on possession but only a down payment of Rs 9 lakh and the balance amount is to be paid over a period of 2 years through zero interest monthly installments.

The smallest office unit can seat about 12 persons plus a cabin for the owner and is self-contained. Furthermore, the offices are air-conditioned and furnished.

Buying property at Royal Palms (http://www.royalpalmsindia.com) is a bargain in more ways than one. On one hand Royal Palms offers property at rates which are 30% - 60% below the going market rates and on the other hand one gets an option to pay in installments. This not only helps those with lesser cash flows, but one is also spared the trouble of cumbersome bank procedures for a loan. Besides, bank loans attract heavy interest which one is saving here. Property buyers are also given a FREE lifetime membership of the Emerald Club (cost 2 Lac) located within the complex.

For Investors looking at parking of own funds, this is even more lucrative as they own a ready-possession commercial space for 25% of its value. If they further rent it out they can recover their investments in a very small time. This is because capital appreciation is assured in this space-starved city. Additionally, most experts feels that the office spaces segment in India is on a gradual improvement curve, with demand just about beginning to pick up.

Royal Palms (http://www.royalpalmsindia.com) has already sold over 1800 offices totaling 800,000 sq ft with top names like Topsgroup, Kapole Advertising, Prime Focus, Ruchi Infrastructure, Connect Star Networks Pvt Ltd, Essel Shyam Telecom, Monarch etc having their business HQ here.

Adds Nensey, "A buyer will get on ownership at Royal Palms what he would get on rent or lease at Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC) or Andheri. Many companies which are based in Andheri, BKC or in South Mumbai are looking at shifting base with a larger area to suburbs like Goregaon. This makes acute business sense. E.g. A company owning a 1000 sq ft office in BKC or Andheri can get out of it and for the same price buy a 4000 - 5000 sq ft office in Royal Palms."

Spread over 240 acres of lush green land in Goregaon East , Royal Palms Estates (http://www.royalpalmsindia.com ) is just 7 minutes from the WE Highway and 7 kms away from the International airport. Says Nensey, "Supported by the exclusive, state-of-the-art infrastructure already in place corporates can also take advantage of the hospitality facilities that Royal Palms has to offer. Two five star hotels with over 800 rooms in the development make staying or working at Royal Palms a smoother affair."

Goregaon sits in the center of Mumbai, with proximity to and excellent connectivity with Airports, SEEPZ, MIDC and Andheri East, An increasing number of swank malls, commercial developments at strategic locations, high-rises, multiplexes and numerous flyovers, are giving the suburb a whole new profile. Despite the growth, the suburb has retained its greenery and peace.

Concludes Nensey, "Over the past decade Royal Palms has managed to keep pace with market needs and produce ideas that are totally in sync with the demand from across large, small and mid-sized players, offering every investor / buyer state-of-art facilities at minimal capital investment."

Kandivli, Mumbai -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/14/2011 -- Dreamz Realty has launched second phase of Sai Nisarg - affordable second home plots at Shahapur - just 10 minutes drive from the Mumbai-Nashik Highway and about 90 minutes from Dadar (Mumbai). The company is offering plots in the size of 1625 sq ft to 4000sq ft etc. These are being offered at an attractive rate of Rs 325 per sq ft. which makes it possible for one to own a bungalow plot - near Mumbai - for as less as Rs 5.25 lacs.

Sai Nisarg is situated in the beautiful environs of Shahapur, which has been declared as Tourist Destination by Govt. of Maharashtra, complete with a view of the pretty hillocks in the distance.

Although set amidst beautiful natural green surroundings Sai Nisarg is close to the market area and just 15 minutes from Asangaon railway station and has facilities like a cafe/restaurant, grocery outlet and other utilities within the project site

Destinations like Shahpur have become quite popular with second home / bungalow buyers in view of the easy accessibility, proximity to Mumbai, affordability and unspoilt natural beauty.

The pharmaceutical market in Japan, valued at $69.4 billion in 2009 is the second largest pharma market in the world. Accreditation is a step towards strengthening Elder's position as a supplier of APIs and intermediates in the Japanese market. Elder has already filed a PCT patent for one of the advanced intermediates for the Japanese market.

Kandivli, Mumbai -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/05/2011 -- Elder Pharmaceuticals Limited, the USD 160 mn Indian pharmaceuticals major has received accreditation from Ministry of Health-Japan for its API [Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients] plant at Patalganga, Maharashtra opening up the fast-growing Japanese markets for the companies products. This accreditation is considered to be very difficult to get as only companies with the very best of infrastructure and quality are able to get this accreditation.

"Elder is positioning itself to be an API and advanced intermediate supplier to the Japanese market. This accreditation for the API plant is a step towards strengthening Elder's position as a supplier of APIs and intermediates in the Japanese market," informed Mr. Alok Saxena, Director, Elder Pharmaceuticals Limited. "The company has also developed two products going off patent in the Japanese market in 2014. One of the products is from the CNS category and the second is from the GI segment."

The pharmaceutical market in Japan, valued at $69.4 billion in 2009 is the second largest pharma market in the world. Key growth drivers for branded pharma include the growing use of chronic high-value innovative treatments driven by an increasingly elderly population, the high proportion of the healthcare budget spent on pharmaceuticals compared to other developed pharmaceutical markets, and the low level of generic penetration. Japan is increasing the share of its healthcare spend on generics pharma and it is targeting this share to go up to 30% of its total market by 2013.
