Saifee Burhani Upliftment Trust
Saifee Burhani Upliftment Trust (SBUT) is a not-for-profit trust that was set up in 2009 to undertake the redevelopment of one of India’s most vibrant but congested localities -- Bhendi Bazaar -- in Mumbai. This project was envisioned by the late Syedna Mohammed Burhanuddin and is now spearheaded by his son and successor His Holiness Syedna Mufaddal Saifuddin. This ambitious redevelopment project comprising 16.5 acres of landform has approximately 250 existing buildings, 1250 shops and 3200 families. The new transformed place will create a vibrant and modern urban area that will not only set a precedent for urban renewal projects in Mumbai, but will also provide impetus for other urban renewal projects in the country, and throughout the world.
