A reputation for innovation, quality and trustWe are known to be a professionally managed organisation with a stable and confident business model. We have shown an impressive compounded annual growth rate—even during difficult market and business cycles (like the depression of 1996, the post-9/11 shadow period and the present recession). And in the process of successfully negotiating changing conditions, Brigade has created a brand name that stands for trust, reliability and innovation, across all our domains.
National and international recognition Construction World ranked Brigade among India\'s top10 builders in 2007 and 2008. The company has also been awarded the \'Regional Developer of the Year–South\' Award 2009, instituted by Realty Plus, India\'s leading real estate publication.
This year, Brigade was on the Forbes magazine list of the top 200 \'Best under a Billion\' companies in the Asia-Pacific region. In the words of Forbes magazine, \'Judging from its performance relative to the regional benchmark, our list has historically been a good place for investors to get ideas about Asian investments. That could prove particularly true this year. Members of our 2008 list have proven themselves capable of navigating stormy economies thus far—a good sign should global growth continue to sag.\'(For a full list of recognitions, see the Awards and Certifications links on the right.)
