CREDAI NCR’s New Leadership Seeks Faster Approvals and Policy Clarity
With persistent project delays, approval bottlenecks, and regulatory uncertainties continuing to weigh on the National Capital Region (NCR)’s real estate market, the newly formed Executive Committee (EC) and Governing Council (GC) of the Confederation of Real Estate Developers’ Associations of India, National Capital Region (CREDAI NCR) is expected to push long-pending reforms.
CREDAI NCR, the regional chapter of the Confederation of Real Estate Developers’ Associations of India (CREDAI), represents developers across Delhi, Gurugram, Noida, Ghaziabad, and Faridabad. The sector has long sought time-bound approvals, simplified compliance norms, speedy dispute resolution, and uniform policy interpretation across authorities—critical for improving delivery timelines and restoring buyer confidence.
NCR’s real estate market is particularly complex due to overlapping regulatory jurisdictions and litigation-heavy projects. Developers often require separate approvals for land-use, environment clearances, building plans, and occupancy certificates, issued by different authorities with limited coordination. CREDAI NCR’s new leadership aims to digitize approval systems, streamline processes under the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act (RERA), and introduce clear protocols for environmental and land-use permissions. These steps could reduce project delays, lower costs, and enhance transparency for both developers and buyers.
The formation of the new leadership brings renewed optimism. A more responsive and reform-focused committee is expected to strengthen communication between developers and authorities, accelerate stalled projects, and improve accountability within the industry. Stakeholders believe a united approach could unlock efficiency and contribute to predictable project execution—a long-awaited benefit for NCR homebuyers.
The new team includes Vishal Gupta, elected President, along with Vice Presidents Anil Kumar Gupta, Dinesh Gupta, Gaurav Gupta, Manish Agarwal, and Vineet Kanwar. Nikhil Hawelia will serve as Secretary, and Arpit Goel as Joint Secretary. The Governing Council has also been expanded with newly inducted members, collectively taking over from the outgoing leadership.
President Vishal Gupta, speaking after assuming office, said he was “humbled” by the responsibility and emphasised the board will work with “renewed enthusiasm, accountability, and proactive engagement” with government bodies and stakeholders. “We take a collective pledge to act with speed and transparency, address industry-critical matters, policy bottlenecks, and ongoing regulatory concerns, and contribute to a modern, sustainable, and robust real estate landscape,” he added.
With a more assertive leadership team in place, industry observers expect CREDAI NCR to play a stronger role in shaping the next phase of real estate reforms in the region. Measures such as faster approvals, clearer policy frameworks, and digitization of compliance processes could give homebuyers the stability, predictability, and confidence they have long awaited, while also helping developers execute projects efficiently.
