The company was founded and started by my grandfather. His dream and vision were to construct high-quality homes with ample space, create landmarks at every location we develop, and ensure that we make homeownership a reality for everyone who purchases from us.

In the real estate industry and as a developer, our projects are more than just products. We deliver dream homes to our customers, which means working with the best architects and designers is non-negotiable.

We build large homes with larger spaces, as we believe that spaces uplift lifestyles, and rightfully so, we stand out in the industry for the quality and space that we ensure our consumers appreciate.
Prime Insights: Can you highlight a major milestone or achievement that defines your company’s growth story?
As a real estate group, we passed through two major milestones that put us on the map of Mumbai & Thane. Our first project, RUTU TOWERS—a specification of 2 BHK with a large space and a circular-shaped balcony—is one of the tallest towers for our group in the Thane belt. Known for its luxurious and spacious homes, RUTU TOWERS was a unique project. Another project of ours, RUSHI TOWERS, was a combination of 3 BHK homes based in Lokhandwala, Andheri West, which had a division into two towers that created a mega-buzz in the real estate market. The project also included 4 BHK duplex homes. We were quite ahead for those times.

As a real estate developer, we are always intrigued and involved in any change that is happening in our industry. We constantly strive to integrate and provide our clients with an upgraded lifestyle through all our offerings. As for the internal part of constructions, we have adapted to Mivan technology, which is now being adapted by many real estate giants.

Prime Insights: What unique strategies have contributed to your company’s consistent growth and market leadership?
In the real estate market, moving ahead with time and employing upgraded strategies is the way to go. Firstly, we initiate an in-depth study of the requirements that the real estate market needs. This approach ensures accurate alignment with the demand and supply of residential and commercial properties. Once we are on board, there is always a pre-launch awareness that is customized and marketed to target buyers. After that, the sales strategy is implemented to ensure that both pre-sales and post-sales services are clear, and that the property delivery meets high expectations.

The future of the real estate industry, along with our company, definitely looks bright and fruitful. Our focus is currently on our flagship project, Rutu City in Thane, which is a 15-acre township. We are introducing larger spaced homes with nature views and lush greenery, multiple modern amenities that upgrade one’s lifestyle, and the best quality of construction. We are confident that this project will stand out among all our competitors in the area and in Thane City, too. Moving on, we look forward to initiating and constructing boutique towers in Central Mumbai and suburban areas, too.
Prime Insights: What message would you like to share with aspiring entrepreneurs and businesses aiming for long-term success?
Having spent more than a decade in this industry, there are a few foundational pointers that have always helped me and proven right in the long run. I firmly believe that a solid plan and execution are essential before making any decisions. Secondly, assemble a team comprising focused, positive, and goal-aligned members. A dream team is the only way one can reach their highest standard of achievement. Always maintain dedication and sternness in your decision-making. Additionally, be welcoming to change and freedom of speech from everyone around you, but only if it supports your work culture and final goal.

And lastly, learn and ensure that you respect time.’ Time management is always the key to success.
