According to a report by Hindustan Times, the property, measuring approximately 7,802 square feet, is located in Kapol Co-operative Housing Society and is owned by Ajay and his mother, Veena Devgn.

The BMC’s K/West ward had issued a notice under Section 354A of the Mumbai Municipal Corporation Act on September 10, 2026, alleging unauthorised additions and alterations at the property. The notice directed the owners to immediately stop the work and produce the requisite permissions within 24 hours. It also warned that the construction could otherwise be demolished at their risk and cost.

In a speaking order dated October 6, the designated officer rejected the owners’ reply, stating that no documents establishing the legality of the construction or permissions from the competent authority had been submitted. Consequently, the civic body treated the work as unauthorised and directed its immediate removal.
