The concept of a ‘green home’ has become a fad in India, and eco-friendly apartments have caught the fancy of modern homebuyers. But then, the question is, it really worth it? The answer to that question, most certainly is a resounding ‘Yes!’ The fact remains that to build or buy a green home, there is a premium on the initial cost – almost 5 per cent more than ordinary residential apartments. However, this is not a deterrent for informed buyers and consequently, there are many new residential projects that offer green homes.
There are many advantages and benefits of a green home, both tangible as well as intangible. The immediate benefits are the reduction in water and energy costs, during the entire life cycle of the building:
- Energy savings: 20 – 30 per cent
- Water savings: 30 – 50 per cent

Other long-term benefits are:
- Better quality of air that you breathe leading to the wellbeing of occupants
- Excellent and optimum use of natural light
- Conservation of scarce natural resources
- Enhanced marketability and subsequent resale value for the project

Among the slew of upcoming projects, one such green building is Raheja Revanta in Gurgaon. Raheja Revanta uses modern green principles like water harvesting and waste management. Raheja Developers have also incorporated the use of eco-friendly building materials like fly-ash cement and blocks, steel and tiles, recycled aluminum, green roofing products to present world-class, eco-friendly luxury apartments. Raheja Revanta Gurgaon also uses sophisticated technology for these premium homes– the air-conditioned apartments have advanced energy-saving VRV (variable refrigerant volume) air conditioners, high performance glass windows and water saving solutions. The project uses progressive and efficient building management systems - a combination of innovative green ideas and smart technology. Raheja Revanta is Gurgaon’s tallest tower - 56 storey high and is earthquake resistant with RCC frames. The entire project is built under the stringent guidelines of the Indian Green Building Council.
Located in one of the realty hotspots of Gurgaon, Raheja Revanta is one of the most-awaited iconic residential projects offering eco-friendly apartments. The project is situated in Sector 78, just off the NH8 near the busy intersection of Northern and Southern Periphery roads. It is also near the international airport, railway station and Huda City Center Metro station. In addition, Revanta enjoys excellent connectivity with the capital and NCR via the NH8.
Raheja Revanta Gurgaon is a world-class project that offers furnished apartments in the lap of nature– the Aravallis are a stone’s throw away! Spacious luxury apartments, floors and penthouses are available in various size options – complete with imported marble bathroom flooring, under-counter vanities, modular kitchens and built-in microwave and refrigerator.

In view of the fact that every apartment at Raheja Revanta is a ‘green home,’ it would be wise to consider investing here. Apart from the immediate tangible benefits of lower maintenance costs, a significantly healthier living environment, and an overall improved quality of life are investment that no ordinary home will be able to match.
