There are many ‘firsts’ that stand to our credit. Way back in 2004, we introduced India’s first 5-year Warranty on Real Estate, that RERA mandated only in 2017. We then introduced India’s first and only 7-year warranty in Real Estate. In 2014, we designed and launched the award-winning ChildCentric® Homes, which revolutionised the Real Estate sector for both, the developer, and the home buyer. IntelliplexesTM, SkyVillasTM, and The Imperium series are our other highly successful product lines. In our 50th Year, we launched yet another first-of-its-kind industry initiative—Gera’s Home Equity Power—a means to provide financial flexibility to customers to meet financial emergencies.
