This recognition marks Riverdale as Pune’s largest and most advanced, green-rated luxury address, setting a new benchmark for sustainable living.

“This certification is a proud milestone for Duville Estates. For three of our projects to be awarded this recognition in achieving the highest certification, ‘Platinum’, goes a long way in confirming our commitment to providing environmentally friendly and sustainable homes.  Our Duville Engineering Team ensures comprehensive adherence to the guidelines set to help minimize the release of pollutants into the air, thereby protecting the local environment and the ecosystem. This, most certainly, contributes to the overall sustainability of the project. We have deliberately chosen to place environmental stewardship at the heart of urban luxury,” said Tushad Dubash, Director, Duville Estates.

Riverdale is not just a premium residential offering, it is a conscious ecosystem crafted for a changing world. Our standards reflect a clear commitment to creating communes that offer better living for every member of the family while actively contributing to a greener, more sustainable tomorrow.

Duville Estates, as part of its ‘Design-Thinking’ process, ensures at the project planning level itself how to balance environmental sensitivity with practical modern luxury. Every element of the development, from construction to landscaping, has been integrated with sustainability at its core. All construction materials have been sourced within a minimal radius to minimize transportation emissions, thereby streamlining timelines and ensuring climate compatibility.

“Duville Engineering maintains stringent guidelines to safeguard the health and safety of the construction workers on site by implementing measures such as using dust suppressants, covering stockpiles to minimize the spread of dust and minimizing exposure to airborne contaminants as well as regular monitoring of the index,” said Vikas Patankar, Head-Projects, Duville Estates.

Further, Duville Estates uses low-emission and fuel-efficient construction equipment to reduce emissions.  This hyper-local approach not only boosts energy efficiency and reduces the carbon footprint but is reflective of Duville Estates’ commitment to creating resilient, future-ready communities.

On World Environment Day, Riverdale Grand, Riverdale Grove and Riverdale Suites stand tall as a symbol of what’s possible when visionary design meets a deep respect for the environment offering residents not just a home, but a lifestyle that’s as conscious as it is luxurious.

“We welcome the 2024 Budget’s progressive measures to reduce customs duties on gold, silver, and platinum. These changes, coupled with the government’s commitment to enhancing domestic value addition and craftsmanship, are poised to significantly benefit the jewelry industry, further contributing to the sector’s growth. 

The new tax regime, with its focus on increased disposable income, will boost demand for jewelry as consumers will invest in asset creation. 

Kalyan Jewellers looks forward to leveraging these positive changes to further enhance the quality and global competitiveness of the organized Indian jewelry sector, contributing to the industry’s growth and India’s continued economic prosperity.”
