Please tell us about yourself and Vibgyor Housing UP?
It is almost just 2 years when I came down to Uttar Pradesh with the vision and concept of affordable housing with the motive to cater affordable flats for those who might have dreamt of having their own flat according to the budget. It really makes me happy that this concept has been appreciated by the people of Uttar Pradesh.

What is your mission and vision?
Our mission is to provide affordable homes to those who need it. It is the key to equitable, social and economic growth of India. Creating a long term solution for quality affordable housing is critical to satisfy the growing aspirations of more than 200 million families.
Having already achieved the highest accreditation of process and quality (NSEN ISO: 9001:2000), the vision of the Group is to make foothold in all the segments of its industrial & commercial activities; to garner the largest market share with its world class products and services and win the hearts of more and more people. With this end in view, the Group has adopted Life Cycle Stage Development Plan as the most important and effective tool. Training and development programs at all stages have been designed by mapping the competencies to specific roles. The marketing platform has been designed on global CRM (Customer Relationship Management). The Group envisions making a niche as a leading Corporate House in India with significant global presence.

The rupee has gone down against the dollar. As we speak, it has touched 68 to the dollar. Is it not a good time for NRIs to invest in Indian property since they will get more purchase out of the dollar?
With the Indian rupee depreciating by over 20 percent since the past two years and now hovering around Rs 68 a dollar, the Indian real estate market offers one of most lucrative investment option for non-resident Indians (NRIs). The quires of the projects have increased so I feel on the rupee depreciation against the dollar this is the right times for NRIs to buy a property in India.

Apart from housing projects, your group has diversified activities. Please tell us something about those activities…
Gems and jewellery is synonymous with and contemporary to our Indian tradition. The collection and components of jewellery includes traditional gold, diamond and platinum, coupled with a variety of other precious and semi-precious metals and stones. India is the home for the world's most competitive gems and jewellery market owing to its low cost of production and the gift of skilled craftsmen and designers.
