Antilia on Altamount Road in Mumbai is a private residence of Mukesh Ambani, designed by Perkins & Will of Chicago and Hirsch Bedner Associates of Los Angeles. The infobox gives completion as 2010. The text says it was built from 2006 to 2010 in one place and 2008 to 2010 in another. Leighton Asia began the work and B. E. Billimoria & Company finished it.
It has 27 stories, stands 568 feet (173 m) tall and covers over 400,000 square feet (37,000 m²) on a plot of 4,532 square meters (48,800 sq ft). No two floors share the same materials or plan, and the interiors use lotus and sun motifs in crystal, marble and mother-of-pearl. It is designed to withstand a magnitude-8 earthquake.
The infobox gives the cost as about US$2 billion, and a 2014 estimate gives US$1 to 2 billion. The tallest single-family house claim is disputed, since staff space houses about 600 people.
