What IGBC Certification Really Means — And Why Sustainable Real Estate Matters Today

Sustainability is no longer an optional consideration in real estate — it has become a defining measure of responsible development and long-term value. As cities grow and environmental concerns intensify, homebuyers are increasingly seeking spaces that support healthier living, consume fewer resources, and remain future-ready.

This is where the Indian Green Building Council (IGBC) plays a transformative role. And at Tejraj, we’re proud that every one of our projects achieves IGBC Platinum/Gold certification, reflecting our uncompromising commitment to sustainable development.

Why IGBC Certification Matters

The IGBC certification is India’s most respected framework for evaluating the environmental performance of buildings. It assesses how well a project performs across critical parameters including:

• Energy efficiency
• ​Water conservation and management
• Indoor air quality
• ​Waste management systems
• ​Sustainable material usage
• ​Site and landscape planning

A Platinum/Gold rating is the highest validation that a project meets exceptional standards across all these areas. But beyond the technicalities, it’s about creating spaces that directly improve the lives of the people who inhabit them.

Sustainability at Tejraj: Designed, Not Added

At Tejraj, sustainability begins long before construction. It starts at the blueprint stage.

Our design philosophy ensures that every element — from orientation to ventilation to materials — contributes to performance, comfort, and long-term environmental value. We optimise:

• ​​Energy systems that reduce consumption
• ​Ventilation pathways for cleaner, natural airflow
• ​Daylight optimisation to minimise artificial lighting
• ​Rainwater harvesting and responsible water use
• ​Material selection that is durable, safe, and eco-friendly
• ​Waste management systems that support a cleaner community
• Green landscape planning that enhances both ecology and lifestyle

This integrated approach ensures that sustainability isn’t a feature — it’s the foundation.

A Lifestyle That Rewards You Every Day

An IGBC-certified home offers more than environmental benefits. It enhances everyday living:

• ​Lower utility bills through efficient energy and water systems
• Better indoor air quality with low-toxicity materials
• ​Naturally cooler, brighter homes
• ​Reduced environmental footprint
• ​Long-term durability and resilience

It’s a lifestyle upgrade backed by science and thoughtful design.

The Future of Real Estate Is Green

As homebuyers become more conscious of health, cost, and impact, sustainable development is emerging as the true mark of future-ready real estate. IGBC certification is not just a badge—it is reassurance.

Reassurance that your home:

•  Supports your well-being
•  Enhances long-term value
•  Performs efficiently for years
•  Minimises its environmental footprint
