About two-thirds of India’s domestically produced steel is consumed by infrastructure and construction, and nearly a third for government projects, observes Shalabh Chaturvedi, Managing Director, CASE Construction Equipment, India & SAARC region. Real estate predominantly uses only domestic steel.
On September 4, 2025, at the Jio Convention Centre, Mumbai, Anand Sundaresan, Director on the Board and Advisor to the Chairman at Ammann India, received the Equipment India Lifetime Achievement Award 2025, as the hall rose and gave him a standing ovation. For an industry that has seen him steer organisations, inspire teams and raise standards, this moment was more than recognition – it was gratitude. Sundaresan’s acceptance struck a chord with warmth and humility: “I accept it with pride and dedicate it to my family, colleagues and the entire construction industry. This award is a testament to the hard work and dedication of everyone involved.”
Kalpataru has launched Kalpataru Estella, a new residential phase within its 100+ acre township Kalpataru Parkcity on Kolshet Road, Thane.

Estella offers 2 and 3 BHK homes with Jodi-flat options, and future phases will include 4 BHK residences.

Sustainability features include EV charging, energy-efficient systems, and 70 per cent open green spaces, anchored by Namo Grand Central, a 10,000 sq. ft. clubhouse.
The transformation of Mumbai is not just about the physical development of infrastructure and real estate but also about the cultural and social impact. The city is becoming a hub for innovation and sustainable living, with a focus on green spaces, smart technology, and community-oriented living. This holistic approach to development is setting a new standard for urban planning and living in India.
As Mumbai continues to grow and transform, the synergy between the real estate, infrastructure, and steel sectors is crucial.
