COVER STORY - RANKING TOP 50 COMPANIES THE TOP 50 REAL ESTATE & INFRA COMPANIES BY JAYASHREE KINI MENDES en years is a long time to be an industry and flourish. We are not boasting, but when one considers the competitive market, we have not done too badly. Construction Week India is by Tno means a conventional magazine. Last year, we began a journey with no little trepidation when we set out to rank established real estate and in- frastructure giants. This year, a little more boldly, we have done it again. While we were a novice at calibrating data last year, this time round we did relook our approach to make the exercise more effectual. We sought out compelling parameters that could with- stand the test of time, and disagreements, if any. For that reason, we took help from renowned consultants who could corroborate the criteria and segregate the submit- ted data. The criteria to rank companies were: Number of projects launched last two years; Projects completed last one year; construction methodologies; milestones; Number of cities present in and projects in those cities; change of management level employees, if any, recently; list of green projects; and best practices followed. We adopted an unbiased approach to tally the scores DQGDUULYHGDWWKHͤQDOOLVW7KHPRUHSRLQWV\RXVFRUH on the parameters, the faster is the climb up the ranking sheet. There are plenty of surprises this year. We hope you will appreciate our efforts and understand that this was just a way of understanding how the Indian real estate market is faring in these turbulent times.
