In India's urban landscape, the real estate sector has emerged as a key player in the nation's climate action narrative, leading a quiet revolution toward sustainable development.
The National Institute of Urban Affairs (NIUA) and Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI) released "Build Right for the First Time," revealing India could slash 8 gigatons of CO₂ emissions by 2050 through net-zero construction practices. The additional investment of ₹4,566 per square meter promises significant returns through reduced emissions and operational savings.
Lalit Kumar Aggarwal of Signature Global states: "Building green is not just environmentally responsible, it's economically sensible." The company integrates sustainability through energy-efficient designs, low-carbon materials, and advanced cooling technologies.
Ashok Kapur of Krishna Group emphasizes: "Sustainability in real estate is no longer optional—it's inevitable. Today's homebuyers increasingly prioritize eco-friendly practices."
Revolutionary cooling systems five times more efficient than conventional alternatives are being implemented. The NIUA-RMI report calls for green construction incentives and updated building codes. States like Gujarat and Maharashtra are pioneering net-zero building codes.
The transformation is underway as developers reimagine their role in society. This cultural evolution recognizes buildings as integral components of a sustainable urban ecosystem, creating a legacy for future generations through India's green building revolution.
