The Square will be spread across 27,000 sq. meters.
The Square, a juxtaposition of Residential & Retail, constitutes flats of 2 , 2.5 and 3 bedroom configuration and more than 180 shops, a major anchor retail outlet, and a hyper mart on a total area of 2,81,000 sq feet. Situated on the main road, it gives easy accessibility, luring consumers to the premises. The Square also introduces a modern food court with fine dine facilities and a shopping arcade for a totally relaxing environment to chill out in.
Mr. Sunil Mantri, Chairman, Sunil Mantri Group said on the occasion, “Tier II and Tier III cities in India have tremendous potential. We see great opportunity in smaller cities and we are confident about the success of our Sholapur project. At The Square, we look forward to making available premium lifestyle offerings in southern Maharashtra. Our experience has lead to a greater understanding of the demands of ultra-modern living and we are committed towards creating landmarks of exemplary design, comfort and quality that benchmark the highest standards of urban living.”
The plush arrangements for the club house and modern gymnasium, box cricket, children’s play area, swimming pool and landscape grounds studded across The Square creates a self-contained world of extravagance and indulgence for all its residents and offers them all the amenities and facilities of modern living within its premises.
The Square promises to be a combination wherein nature and urban living co-exist with modern and premium amenities in the center of the city.
It is very shameful that the current president of MHCI (Mahrashtra Housing Chamber and Industries) – Mr Sunil Mantri – the elected president – has two faces, is a hypocrite and carries on double standards. One sweet image by keeping the journalists happy who print his bites and the other villaneous image with the existing tenants of a Building in the prestigious Malabar Hill in South Mumbai.
This Sunil Mantri of Mantri Group and Sunil Mantri Realty Ltd., GA-1, Court Chambers, 35, New Marine Lines, Mumbai – 400020, has entered our plot in a premium locality of MALABAR HILL in South Mumbai as the developer since the year 2005. The plot is at CS 260 of Malabar Hill Division is situated at Vithal Niwas, 100 Walkeshwar Road, Mumbai 400006.
Since then he and his agents have been giving threat to life and harassments to the tenants. The tenants were ready and are still ready to co-operate for the development of the plot. But this Sunil Mantri wants to forcibly vacate the tenants by giving them less than 30 percent cost of prevailing market rates in the area.
As per the Development Rules, now all the tenants have decided not to take any monetary compensation but choose for a residential flat (or a shop for old and existing shopkeepers) in the same plot – which is exactly as per the development rules.
Now this Sunil Mantri has started issuing dangerous threats and even claims to use his high level Political contacts against the innocent residents and shopkeepers. He has also filed false cases against the innocent tenants who do not give in to his petty and very unreasonable compensation.
It is shameful that this same Sunil Mantri who announces in Media about his mega public issue and his investment plans of 1,000s of crores but in reality this so called high profile developer who also holds some high office in MHCI – cannot tackle and negotiate and compensate reasonably (according to law) with a few bonafide tenants.
There have been several complaints filed against Sunil Mantri with the authorities.
I humbly request all the media persons, journalists and editors who have a conscience, and who can really print ACTUAL FACTS , then to come and visit the location at Vithal Niwas, 100 Walkeshwar Road, Malabar Hill, Mumbai 6 – to investigate with the commercial and residential tenants who are continously harassed and threatened by him.
