Minister Aaditya Thackeray, Cabinet Minister of Environment, Tourism and Protocol, Government of Maharashtra at a town hall session at the Blox HeadQuarters. Thackeray commended Aditya Jhaveri for the efforts and vision of disrupting the real estate industry through digitization saying, “In today’s world of home delivery where almost everything reaches you directly, why not bring the process of buying your new home to your phone. And that’s what you’ve been trying to achieve and I congratulate you .“ The event was also graced by multiple Real Estate developers and other key stakeholders from real estate and technology.

Blox provides instant site visit bookings and a dedicated Relationship Manager to assist with virtual and physical site visits across the city. Blox is committed to offering home buyers complete transparency and convenience through an integrated end to end home buying experience with verified inventory listed directly from multiple Real Estate Developers. In less than 7 months since commencing business in the industry, Blox has already listed over 300 developers on its platform and actively services around 500 projects in Mumbai and Thane.

In presence at the event, were the dynamic Developers from the Real Estate industry responsible for making the Mumbai city skyline as we know it today. The palpable energy in the room was heightened by Amit Bhosale- Managing Director, ABIL Group; Jayesh Shah -Chairman, Shree Naman Group; Sarjan Shah -Vice Chairman & Managing Director, Group Satellite; Jayvardhan Goenka- Executive Director, Dynamix Group; Anuj Khetan- Director, VKG Group; Krish Raveshia – CEO, Azlo Realty; Vedanshu Kedia- Director, Prescon Realtors amongst others.

Mr. Aaditya Thackeray, who attended the event, showed his immense support for the growth and development of Blox and the digitization of the real estate sector. He, along with Founder & CEO Aditya Jhaveri, expressed his views on how digitization and technology can redefine and transform the real estate sector, to one that would transcend imagination and help thousands of home buyers find their dream homes. And taking the lead is Blox aiming to offer a seamless experience with complete online and offline capabilities.

Speaking at the townhall meeting, Mr. Aaditya Thackeray said, “ One of the biggest issues for Maharashtra is housing. Giving access to homes for all has been a challenge along with buyers finding their dream home. In today’s age, where almost every daily need and service can be accessed online, Jhaveri is aiming to achieve digitisation and modernisation for home buying with Blox and bring homes to everyone’s fingertips. For this we appreciate and thank you. To support the real estate industry and the revival of the economy post COVID, the Government of Maharashtra has also reduced the stamp duty for registration of residential houses, waived off property tax for homes of less than 500 sq ft size and BMC has reduced premiums on housing projects in the past one year. All efforts are being made to make housing a reality for all in the state, especially in a city like Mumbai .”

We were fortunate to organize an event like this, where one gets to interact with some of the most impressive minds in real estate and tech on the future of the real estate tech economy. We at Blox truly believe that there are better ways to serve every single homebuyer in India, and I’m very excited about the participation from the industry. As a result, we remain confident in our vision of digitizing the industry and look forward to many more opportunities that will only contribute to the growth of a successful digital real estate platform”
