A mere hour with Niranjan Hiranandani is not enough. The czar of real estate has been in the business of real estate for far too long and, one can safely say, has learnt everything there is to know under the sun. He has also learnt to take everything in his stride, which is of paramount importance in the perennially shifting arena of real estate development.
What makes him distinct in the unsporting world of real estate is his ability to be direct and outspoken. Be it government rules or the dynamically shifting nature of the development business, Hiranandani has remained true to his conscience at all times. Perhaps, it’s this reason that also makes him much sought after across industries. Besides being co-founder and MD at the Hiranandani Group, and CMD of Hiranandani Communities, he is also the national president of Naredco, the president of the apex industry body Assocham (The Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry of India) and in January was appointed as one of the board members to find a resolution for Unitech. He considers this role as a public service to resolve the issues of numerous stranded home buyers.
All the above responsibilities, while being a feather in his cap, rests lightly on his able shoulders.
