Tensile structures in Mumbai
From Powai and Lower Parel to Malad and Versova: structures built for sea air, heavy monsoon and tight city sites.
Built across Mumbai
Mumbai is WhiteShed’s home market. Our factory is at Shilphata, Thane, a short drive from the city, and many of our completed projects are in Mumbai itself: corporate rooftops in Powai, residential towers in Wadala and Lower Parel, a banquet terrace in Malad and a research campus in Versova.
We take projects across the island city and the western, central and harbour suburbs, for housing societies, developers, corporate offices, hotels, banquet halls, restaurants and institutions.

What we build in Mumbai
Entrance canopies, walkways, terrace and courtyard covers, pool shade and gazebos.
Cantilever and arch parking sheds for homes, societies, offices and factories.
Motorised roofs that open and close terraces, restaurants and courtyards.
Side-guided screens that close balconies, terraces and seating against rain, wind and sun.
Building in Mumbai
What should a Mumbai project plan for?
- Sea air: salt and humidity are hard on steel, so coating, sealed connections and fixings are chosen for coastal exposure.
- Monsoon: four months of heavy rain mean drainage is designed first, with slopes, gutters and downpipes sized for it.
- Wind on towers: rooftop and podium structures on high-rises see far more wind than ground-level covers, and frames and anchors are checked for it.
- Tight sites: narrow access, working societies and limited crane space shape how the structure is split into parts and installed.
Typical projects in Mumbai
Housing societies and developers: car parking sheds, podium and terrace covers, entrance canopies. Corporate offices: rooftop umbrellas, breakout terraces and walkways. Hotels, banquets and restaurants: terrace structures, retractable roofs and zip screens. Institutions: courtyard and assembly covers.

Frequently asked questions
Yes. Our team is based at Shilphata, Thane, and visits sites across Mumbai to measure and check site conditions before design.
Yes. Rooftop and podium structures are designed for the wind at that height and fixed to the slab, columns or parapet as the building allows. We check the structure at the site visit.
Typically ₹350 to ₹700 per sq ft before GST, depending on fabric, frame, span and site access. Transport and travel depend on the site; ask for them to be itemised in the quotation. See the cost guide.
