Unlike most people in Realty, Bhartiya City Developers Pvt. Ltd. comes from a background of design. They started in 1987 designing apparel. Soon, designs from their studios in Milan were being adapted by brands like Levi's, Armani, Zara and Trussardi. During the course of their evolution, they struck upon a simple truth: good design makes people happy. Be it a well cut, flattering jacket or a thoughtfully built house. To go from one to the other it took them two decades. During these years, the founder travelled extensively to the finest cities in the world. The contrast between what he saw in Munich, Florence, London, and what he came back home to was tremendous. Even the common man there could afford a good home. Cycling to work was not life-threatening. If such a life was possible in Amsterdam and Barcelona and Milan, why not here? For the founder, this was not a rhetorical question. His answer was to build a whole city, to design a way of life. That vision is Bhartiya City Developers Pvt. Ltd. and it's being built by architects and urban planners of International repute. They include Perkins Eastman-New York, Cox- Sydney and BDP Khandekar-Amsterdam for master planning; Broadway Malayan-from UK and WOW from Singapore for residential, retail and hotel; Edifice-Mumbai for the IT Park, amongst many others. Bhartiya International Ltd, the flagship company of the group, is listed on BSE and NSE. It is the country’s leader in the leather fashion industry and winner of many awards for excellence. Bhartiya City Developers Pvt. Ltd. is no exception. In 2013, Bhartiya was the first Indian developer to win the MIPIM Asia Award in its Best Futura Mega Project category (Asia- Pacific Region). Considered among the most prestigious International recognitions, the MIPIM Asia Awards recognize the industry’s best and brightest, rewarding innovation and achievement in a variety of fields.
