Earmarking Sustainable Development, CREDAI National President Mr Boman Irani, shares his thoughts “It is an absolute honour to be chosen to serve as president of CREDAI. This gives us an opportunity to build on the extraordinary work done and milestones achieved by my accomplished predecessors. Indian Real Estate stands at a cusp of a revolution, and we at CREDAI are extremely focussed to facilitate growth for all stakeholders involved. We intend to continue to work closely with the Government to ensure a more conducive eco-system that enables sustainable growth, providing complete transparency and enhancing governance standards for our homebuyers and ancillary industries. We understand the responsibility we bear as a distinguished industry body, and we hope to guide our members into a new era of inclusive and sustainable growth. To achieve the same, we have collaborated with IGBC for achieving our motto ‘Better Buildings, Building Better’, that will go a long way in enabling developers to build sustainably. We intend to build on strong platforms to supplement inclusive, holistic growth within the Indian Real Estate fraternity.”

CREDAI MCHI President Mr Domnic Romell, comments “The Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) remains one of the most valuable property markets in the country, contributing majorly to the state and national economy. CREDAI-MCHI will continue to work towards good governance, rejuvenating housing policies, optimizing zero carbon practices in MMR. CREDAI MCHI has scaled newer heights under able leadership in the past, and it gives me immense joy to take this legacy forward amidst an exciting time for the industry, as infrastructural and real estate growth comes to the fore. We are entering into a new era with focused work towards increasing prominence of sustainability in the MMR real estate.”

CREDAI National Past President, Mr Harsh Vardhan Patodia, opines “Over the past 24 years, CREDAI has successfully established its position as a leading industry body, and we are extremely optimistic and convinced in Boman’s vision to take not just CREDAI but also the Indian Real Estate industry to greater heights, characterized by sustainability and transparency.”
