NBCC, a Navratna CPSE under the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA), has implemented and handed over the NABARD regional office building project at Salt Lake in Kolkata. Delivered in a record time of 24 months the building was inaugurated recently by NABARD Chairman Dr. Harsh Kumar Bhanwala.

Speaking about the project, NBCC Chairman-cum-Managing Director Dr. Anoop Kumar Mittal said, “The eco-friendly 3-star project incorporates all features of a modern green building. NBCC is always in the pursuit of sustainable development, using processes and materials that are environmentally-responsible and resource-efficient – right from planning to design, construction, operation, maintenance and renovation.”
