Company History - Housing Development and Infrastructure
We are part of the Wadhawan Group, which was founded by the late Mr.
 Dewan 
 Kuldip Singh Wadhawan in 1973. The Wadhawan Group was founded for the
 purpose  
 of land aggregation, land management, land development and
 construction of residential, 
 commercial and retail units, townships and infrastructure. Initially,
 the Wadhawan Group 
 was also involved in the marketing of residential, commercial and
 industrial plots. In 1973 
 the first residential building named Kapil Kunj at Vasai was
 completed by the Wadhawan 
 Group. In 1978, all the projects of the Wadhawan Group came under the
 brand name of Dheeraj.
 
 As of December 31, 2006, the Wadhawan Group has developed (including
 our developments) 
 approximately 72.8 million square feet of saleable area and,
 additionally, has constructed 
 approximately 5.5 million square feet of rehabilitation area under
 slum rehabilitation schemes.
 
 Our Company was incorporated on July 25, 1996 as Housing Development
 and Improvement 
 India Private Limited, with the objective of developing large-scale
 real estate projects including 
 residential, commercial and retail projects such as shopping malls,
 multiplexes and integrated 
 townships and partnering in development of public infrastructure.
 
 Since our incorporation in 1996, we have developed and constructed 23
 projects covering 
 approximately 11.0 million square feet of saleable area, including
 approximately 5.7 million square 
 feet of land sold to other builders after Land Development, all in
 the Mumbai Metropolitan Region. 
 We also have constructed an additional 2.0 million square feet of
 rehabilitation area under slum 
 rehabilitation schemes.
