NAREDCO Maharashtra Postpones Major Real Estate Forum Amid Mumbai's Heavy Rains

Due to relentless rainfall that has battered the city over the past few days, NAREDCO Maharashtra announced that it has indefinitely postponed its most anticipated event of the year, The Real Estate Forum 2025, originally scheduled for August 20. The decision was prompted by red-alert weather warnings issued by the India Meteorological Department and widespread flooding across Mumbai on August 18 and 19.

India's Largest Real Estate Congregation Deferred

The theme of this flagship gathering - "Reimagining Maharashtra: Global Alliances to Local Impact" - underscores its stature as India's largest real-estate congregation, expected to attract government dignitaries, industry visionaries, and innovation champions. Key leaders, including Maharashtra's Chief Minister and Mumbai's Municipal Commissioner, were slated to attend.

Severe Weather Conditions Force Safety Measures

The torrential showers—over 300 mm of rainfall recorded in just 24 hours, have paralyzed key parts of the city and its suburbs, disrupting travel, halting flights, and flooding critical infrastructure. NAREDCO cited prevailing safety challenges and transport uncertainties in their decision to defer the event.
