17th NAREDCO National Convention Set to Spotlight Regulatory Reforms, Urban Transformation, and Real Estate Growth
National Real Estate Development Council (NAREDCO) today announced the 17th edition of its flagship National Convention, scheduled for August 29–30, 2025, in New Delhi. With the theme “Resilient India: Inclusive, Sustainable, and Future-Ready”, the convention aims to foster serious dialogue between the real estate industry, policymakers, investors, and technology leaders.
Smt. Rekha Gupta, Hon’ble Delhi Chief Minister assured the industry members that “Government just needs 2 years to revamp Delhi and fill the bottleneck of past 10 years of developmental backlog. We urge the industry members and developers to come up with the PPP models for developing state of the art hospitals, schools, shopping malls, accommodations and infrastructure and the government will give the full policy and funding support.Our vision is to convert all the slums in Delhi into permanent homes. In addition, we urged the industry to come up with a roadmap on parali-processing units to manage and reduce the AQI level in Delhi.
“With a double-engine government, we will propel Delhi towards double-digit growth, ensuring a prosperous future for its citizens,” said Smt. Rekha Gupta, Hon’ble Chief Minister of Delhi Dr Niranjan Hiranandani, Chairman, NAREDCO, remarked, “Urban planning is now central to India’s economic strategy. 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’s urban centers have the potential to lead this transition, and Delhi, with its strategic significance, must lead by example.
Shri G Hari Babu, President, NAREDCO, highlighted that the convention would function as a policy accelerator. “We’re at a tipping point where growth, regulation, and innovation must align.
Shri Rajan N Bandelkar, Vice Chairman, NAREDCO, said, “India’s cities need a bold reimagination-from finance to floor space, from carbon to connectivity. Shri Praveen Jain, Chairman Emeritus, NAREDCO, added, “The 17th National Convention is a defining moment for India’s real estate sector. It is where experience meets innovation, and where industry and government come together to script the next chapter of urban transformation.
Union Minister of Housing and Urban Affairs, Shri Manohar Lal, has confirmed his presence as Chief Guest, signalling strong central government participation in what is widely seen as the sector’s most influential public-private policy forum.
Mobility and quality of life-key metrics in global urban indices—will also be addressed through sessions on transit-oriented development, multimodal transport, and urban livability benchmarks. Rounding off the agenda, the topic of ease of doing business 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. 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’s real estate and urban planning narrative.
