Two big mistakes I see with young entrepreneurs
1. They're in a hurry to designate themselves CEO/Chairman etc on Linkedin
2. They mistake valuations for values.
Who’s on the buyer’s side? Brokers who achieved most volume sales for ‘not so credible builders’ haven’t been penalised; it’s the consumer who paid with his hard earned money. Shouldn’t there be a platform of such credible consultants?

Biggest problem in Delhi is unauthorised colonies; small plots sold vide GPA with narrow lanes & multistorey construction. Tinder box for calamities. Wonder why Govt(s) isn't strict about unplanned urban expansion. Maybe, only capital in the world with 10,000+ UA settlements
One of the fundamental challenges facing urban development in India is not merely the quality of policy, but the gap between policy intent, implementation, and compliance.
Too often, urban policies are framed with caution, implemented inconsistently, and enforced selectively. This creates an environment where regulatory adherence becomes the exception rather than the norm. Citizens, businesses, and even institutions frequently resort to shortcuts, with non-compliance often being regularized later through administrative discretion or corruption.
The real estate sector reflects a similar reality. A significant portion of the industry continues to be dominated by family-run enterprises that have evolved organically over decades. While many have built successful businesses, the sector as a whole often suffers from a shortage of professional management, institutional processes, and long-term strategic thinking.
The contrast becomes evident when we look at professionally managed developers. Their visibility, credibility, and customer trust are not accidental—they are outcomes of governance, transparency, accountability, and professional leadership.
As India urbanizes at an unprecedented pace, the next phase of growth will require more than capital and land. It will demand stronger institutions, professional talent, disciplined execution, and a culture that values compliance as much as ambition.
Cities are ultimately shaped not only by the policies governments create, but by the standards that industries and citizens choose to uphold.

Real estate consultants would differentiate themselves not by the volume of sales but by their credibility of advice. Brokers who achieved most volume sales for ‘not so credible builders’ haven’t been penalised; it’s the consumer who paid with his hard earned money. #rehive
A cooperative platform for active real estate consultants is a need; where professionals share insights, information and learn from each other. A not for profit venture where each participant brings value to the table.

Why do so many real estate events feel the same?
A large part of the agenda is spent on felicitating sponsors. Many sharp critics and thinkers are invited, but rarely asked to speak. Over time, events start feeling like cozy clubs—where everyone praises each other and the real conversations happen only after the microphones are switched off.
Ironically, post-event networking often gets more importance than the actual debates and discussions on stage. The result is predictable: safe panels, familiar voices, and very little honest exchange of ideas.
If this continues, real estate events risk losing their relevance. Those who truly matter will stop speaking—or stop attending altogether—while the stage is occupied by those who can afford visibility rather than those who have something meaningful to say.
Perhaps it’s time to rethink what these platforms are really meant for: recognition, or real dialogue?
You don’t just need advice—you need a team on your side. And there’s none better than a buyer’s advocate who works solely to protect your interests and deliver on your defined investment objective, not someone else’s agenda. Text : 9899054949

There's a lot of confusion about the concept of #TOD and the Delhi TOD policy. I've requested my team to compile info from the thought leaders of @DelhiConsortium as a handbook; as an easy read for all stakeholders. Feel free to seek a Hardcopy / .pdf on mail
