HoABL, through its wholly owned subsidiary HoABL Impactum Land Pvt. Ltd., has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with NITCO Limited, its wholly owned subsidiary NITCO Realties Pvt. Ltd., and promoter Vivek Talwar.
The proposed joint development covers land parcels located at Thal and Lonare in Alibaug, Raigad.

₹4,500 Crore Combined Revenue Opportunity
According to the announcement, the proposed joint development is expected to generate approximately ₹3,000 crore in revenue for HoABL and ₹1,500 crore for NITCO over five years.

For NITCO, the project provides an opportunity to monetise its land assets through a premium real estate development model while partnering with an established branded land developer.

The development is planned to include:
- Luxury apartments

- Integrated residential and hospitality offerings
The boutique hotel is proposed to be operated under Miros, although further details regarding the hospitality partner are expected to be announced later.
Global architects and partners are expected to be involved in designing the development.
Second Major Alibaug Project for HoABL
The project will be HoABL’s second development in Alibaug, following its Sol-de-Alibaug project.
HoABL has been expanding its presence in Alibaug as the region increasingly attracts premium residential and lifestyle demand. The company believes the area’s natural environment, coastal location, improving infrastructure and growing demand for luxury housing have strengthened its position as a high-value residential destination.
HoABL Expanding Beyond Branded Land Development
The proposed Alibaug project represents a broader strategic move by HoABL from its traditional branded land-development model toward a wider real estate platform.
The company plans to combine premium residential formats with hospitality and destination-oriented developments.
According to HoABL, the objective is to create differentiated destinations that combine residences, amenities and hospitality services.
NITCO Transaction Subject to Approvals and Definitive Agreements
NITCO clarified that the proposed transaction remains subject to conditions precedent, statutory approvals and execution of definitive agreements.
The company also clarified that HoABL Impactum is not related to NITCO’s promoter group, and therefore the transaction does not constitute a related-party transaction.
Further details regarding the project’s configuration, development timeline, location-specific plans and hospitality arrangements are expected to be announced subsequently.
Alibaug Emerges as Premium Real Estate Destination
The announcement highlights the growing positioning of Alibaug as a premium residential and lifestyle market.
HoABL’s existing Sol-de-Alibaug development covers more than 20 acres and includes luxury villas and plotted developments along with multiple amenities and clubhouses.
The company said its Alibaug projects have attracted a premium customer base, including celebrities and senior corporate executives.
