Shashi Prabhu & Associates

What Shashi Prabhu & Associates does

Shashi Prabhu & Associates is a Mumbai-based multidisciplinary architecture, engineering, and project management consultancy founded in 1967 by architect Shashi Prabhu. The firm provides integrated design, engineering, and advisory services across healthcare, sports infrastructure, education, civic and government, and urban planning verticals, serving institutional clients including state governments, cricket associations, university boards, hospital operators, and corporate foundations. Its portfolio includes nationally significant landmarks such as Wankhede Stadium (original 1974 design and 2010 renovation for the 2011 World Cup Final), Lilavati Hospital, Indira Gandhi Indoor Stadium (1982 Asian Games), Barsapara Stadium, and the upcoming INR 950 Cr Indian Institute of Management Mumbai campus.

The firm operates a fully integrated service model encompassing architecture, interior design, landscape architecture, MEP engineering, urban design, project management consultancy (PMC), and transactional/PPP advisory under a single practice. Technical capabilities include BIM/AI-driven design workflows, parametric architectural design, large-span structural engineering (notably the Wankhede cantilevered tensile roof), and earthquake-resilient structural steel framing. The firm maintains offices in Mumbai (headquarters located within the Wankhede Stadium complex) and Pune, with international operations in the UAE covering 2,000+ villa projects and cross-border collaborations in the US, Europe, and Australia.

The firm is privately held and family-controlled, led by founder Shashi Prabhu alongside second-generation partners Amol Prabhu (Cornell-educated engineer with US project experience) and Atul Prabhu (BIM/AI and urban development specialist leading UAE operations). Revenue is generated through project-specific professional service fees on large-scale public and institutional commissions; the firm does not publicly disclose revenue or financial details and operates without external institutional investment.
