DP Singh discussed the transformation of the real estate sector in India, noting that most old builders have either been jailed or bankrupted due to lack of compliance with regulations. He praises new generations of developers for adhering to RERA laws, paving the way for a significant shift in the industry.
Regarding urban infrastructure, Singh emphasized the need for long-term master planning and radical change to improve Delhi NCR's poor air quality. He calls on the government to conduct studies to identify challenges and encourages "think big," "create surplus" thinking in urban infrastructure planning.
On sustainable and green building practices, K.P. Singh stressed their importance, highlighting DLF's achievements in this area, including international recognition for green buildings. The Chairman Emeritus believes progressive developers will adopt such practices due to government incentives.
For young entrepreneurs aspiring to make a mark in the real estate sector, Singh offers practical advice: ensure complete compliance with laws, pay taxes, and test your projects to build trust.
Reflecting on his career, KP Singh attributes his biggest achievement to winning over farmers' confidence to buy land, a feat made possible through his leadership and perseverance. His legacy is considered remarkable in the real estate industry.
Singh's views underscore India's growth potential, its growing economic influence, and the pivotal role of Indian leadership in the country's transformation on the global stage.
