History

The 15 acres of land on which TMTC stands once belonged to leading solicitor FE Dinshaw. In 1918, Mr Dinshaw acquired the services of Mr Wittet, the then consulting architect to the Government of Bombay, to build him a country home.

In the 1960s, it was restored and turned it into a residential training centre though the original layout remains the same.
