Elon Musk’s Starlink real estate deal in Mumbai has a Hrithik Roshan connection
Starlink Satellite Communications Private Ltd has leased an office space measuring 1,294 sq ft in Mumbai's Chandivali area for a total rent of ₹2.33 crore
Elon Musk’s satellite internet venture, Starlink Satellite Communications Private Limited, has leased a 1,294 sq ft office space in Mumbai’s Chandivali area for five years, at a total rent of ₹2.33 crore, according to property registration documents accessed by Propstack.
Maharashtra on November 5 became the first Indian state to partner with Elon Musk-owned Starlink to provide satellite-based internet connectivity across remote regions. The Government of Maharashtra signed a Letter of Intent (LoI) with Starlink Satellite Communications Private Limited, formalizing the partnership.
The commercial space was earlier leased in the same building where Bollywood actor Hrithik Roshan and his father Rakesh Roshan's company HRX Digitech LLP purchased three office units for ₹31 crore earlier this year.
The company has leased the ground floor of the Boomerang building in Chandivali, comprising a carpet area of 1,294 sq ft, according to documents accessed.
The property, owned by Nikunj Sheth, was registered on October 14, 2025. The documents indicate that a stamp duty of ₹66,500 and a registration fee of ₹1,000 were paid.
Starlink will pay a monthly rent of ₹3.52 lakh, with a 5% annual escalation, and has deposited ₹31.7 lakh as security, the filings showed.
Additionally, the company will pay the common area maintenance (CAM) of ₹15.79 lakh for a period of five years. The documents show that the office space is leased along with one car parking space.
Starlink Satellite Communications Pvt Ltd could not be reached for a comment.
“Elon Musk’s Starlink has chosen Mumbai as a key operational hub for its upcoming satellite internet rollout. Mumbai will play a strategic role for Starlink’s India operations as they push Starlink’s high-speed satellite connectivity,” said Raja Seetharaman, cofounder of Propstack.
“Potentially, this could transform connectivity for millions by overcoming limitations of fibre and mobile networks,” Seetharaman said.
Hrithik Roshan owns three office units in the same building
The boomerang building where Starlink has leased the space is the same building that Bollywood actor Hrithik Roshan and his father, Rakesh Roshan, through their company HRX Digitech LLP, purchased three office units for ₹31 crore in July 2025, according to property registration documents accessed by Propstack.
The three office units are on the first floor of the Boomerang building in the Chandivali area of Andheri East.
Documents show that the three office units are spread across an area of 13,546 sq ft, for which an agreement was registered on July 9, 2025.
Similarly, in September 2024, the Roshan family entity bought five office units on the fifth floor of the same building for ₹37.75 crore.
