This landmark initiative marks a defining moment for Indian real estate — introducing a structured platform to honour developers and projects that build not only at scale but with purpose. Strengthened by reforms such as RERA, GST, IBC, digitisation of land records, and liberalised FDI norms, the Awards also support national priorities such as affordable housing and sustainable urbanisation. They recognise developers who drive innovation, integrity, and responsible growth in the sector.
“The CREDAI Awards are our way of recognising the real changemakers of Indian real estate — those who are raising industry standards, building responsibly, and creating lasting value for the nation,” said Shekhar Patel, President, CREDAI. “These awards stand out for their focus on transparency, sustainability, and integrity, and are independently validated by CRISIL to ensure credibility. In a sector strengthened by reforms like RERA, GST, and IBC, we celebrate developers who combine innovation with accountability, and profit with purpose — shaping communities and leaving a lasting impact for generations.”
The Awards will celebrate excellence across residential, commercial, mixed-use, green developments, senior citizen, and young achiever categories, recognising developers who are transforming the way Indian cities are built and experienced. Each category will be assessed through a transparent, multi-parameter framework, evaluating design, execution, sustainability, and community impact.
By bringing together diverse voices from across the ecosystem, CREDAI aims to strengthen the bridge between policy intent and on-ground practice, ensuring that the industry’s growth remains inclusive, transparent, and future-ready. The inaugural ceremony in December will serve as a landmark platform to celebrate excellence, foster dialogue, and showcase the developers and projects shaping the future of Indian real estate.
