Ahmedabad (Gujarat) [India], August 21:<\/strong> Gujarat\u2019s real estate and infrastructure story took centre stage as Ahmedabad hosted a curtain raiser for the 17th NAREDCO National Convention, slated for August 29\u201330 in New Delhi. Themed \u201cResilient India: Inclusive, Sustainable, and Future-Ready,\u201d the convention is being positioned as India\u2019s most influential policy-driven real estate platform.<\/p>\n

Ahmedabad\u2019s success with smart city projects, ring road infrastructure, and affordable housing models has made it a beacon for mid-sized cities eyeing sustainable urbanisation.<\/p>\n

Shri Suresh D Patel, Hon. Secretary, NAREDCO and President, NAREDCO Gujarat,<\/strong>\u00a0remarked:\u00a0\u201cGujarat has long been at the forefront of infrastructure-led growth. From industrial parks to sustainable housing, we have built models worth scaling. The upcoming convention will allow us to collaborate on policy reforms that remove bottlenecks in affordable housing, increase private capital inflow and reforms in tax burdens.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Key convention topics\u2014such as green materials, RERA reforms, and integrated urban mobility\u2014will hold special relevance for Gujarat\u2019s cities navigating their next growth chapter.<\/p>\n

Dr<\/strong>Niranjan Hiranandani<\/strong>,\u00a0Chairman, NAREDCO<\/strong>, remarked,\u201cUrban planning is now central to India\u2019s economic strategy.\u00a0<\/em>With construction accounting for a large portion of carbon emissions, the real estate sector must move from conventional approaches to smart, sustainable models. This means adopting green materials, planning for energy efficiency, and integrating smart infrastructure. India\u2019s urban centers have the potential to lead this transition, and Delhi, with its strategic significance, must lead by example. We need public-private cooperation, but more importantly, a shift in mindset where \u2018green\u2019 becomes the default and not the exception.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Shri G Hari Babu<\/strong>,\u00a0President, NAREDCO<\/strong>, highlighted that the convention would function as a policy accelerator.\u201cWe\u2019re at a tipping point where growth, regulation, and innovation must align. This convention is not just a gathering\u2014it\u2019s where ideas are converted into action. The sector\u2019s ability to attract global capital, improve last-mile project delivery, and serve end-users depends on how quickly we resolve policy friction points like delays in approvals, inadequate rental frameworks, and high construction input costs,\u201d<\/em>he said.<\/p>\n

Union Minister of Housing and Urban Affairs, Shri Manohar Lal<\/strong>, has confirmed his presence\u00a0as Chief<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0Guest<\/strong>, signalling strong central government participation in what is widely seen as the sector\u2019s most influential public-private policy forum. The convention\u2019s official logo was unveiled on 1st<\/sup> August, 2025,\u00a0by Delhi<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0Chief Minister Smt.\u00a0<\/strong>Rekha Guptaa<\/strong> at the curtain raiser in New Delhi.<\/p>\n

At the core of the two-day event are some of the most pressing issues shaping the real estate and infrastructure sectors.\u00a0These include the\u00a0evolution of RERA\u00a0<\/strong>and associated policy reforms to improve compliance transparency, grievance redressal, and developer credibility.<\/span>\u00a0Affordable housing and urban development<\/strong>\u2014especially rental housing models, credit-linked subsidies, and PPP frameworks\u2014will receive focused attention, aligning with India\u2019s long-standing housing-for-all mandate.<\/p>\n

Capital formation and finance are also expected to dominate the discourse. As interest in Indian REITs grows and foreign investors eye residential and infrastructure assets in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, the convention will delve\u00a0into investment<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0instruments<\/strong>, credit enhancement mechanisms, and sovereign support models that can derisk private capital in long-gestation projects.<\/p>\n

In a nod to sustainability, technology, and future-readiness, the event will feature discussions\u00a0on new-age<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0construction technologies<\/strong>, such as prefabrication, BIM, and green materials. It will also\u00a0explore development<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0models for central business districts (CBDs)<\/strong>in ageing city cores\u2014integrating heritage, density, and functionality.<\/p>\n

Mobility and quality of life-key metrics in global urban indices\u2014will also be addressed through sessions\u00a0on transit-oriented<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0development<\/strong>, multimodal transport<\/strong>, and urban livability benchmarks<\/strong>. Rounding off the agenda, the topic of\u00a0ease of doing business\u00a0<\/strong>will be approached through tangible reform discussions on single-window clearances, digitisation of land records, and reducing the regulatory load on real estate developers and investors.<\/p>\n

With over 800 delegates expected, the 17th NAREDCO National Convention is poised to serve as a springboard for consensus-building, solution design, and forward policy momentum in India\u2019s real estate and urban planning narrative.<\/p>\n
