Experion Developers has crossed Rs. 4,000 crore in revenue for FY 2025–26, marking a defining milestone in its growth trajectory and reinforcing its position as a leading player in India’s evolving luxury real estate market.

Experion Developers’ landmark luxury project showcases design-led architecture and premium living spaces

The milestone reflects the emergence of a developer steadily reshaping the contours of luxury housing through a disciplined, design-led, and institutionally anchored approach to development. At a time when real estate growth is often associated with aggressive expansion, Experion has quietly almost doubled its revenue from Rs. 2,200 crore in the previous financial year through calibrated market selection, strong demand absorption, and a clear focus on the luxury segment.

B.K. Malagi, Vice Chairman, Experion Developers said, “Crossing Rs. 4,000 crore in revenue is a significant step for us and reflects the steady momentum we’ve built over the past years. It comes from a clear focus on tapping the right markets, strong execution, and staying fundamental in how we grow. We will continue to strengthen this momentum and drive stable, long-term revenue growth.”

Flagship Projects Shaping Luxury

Experion Windchants, one of the landmark communities located on Dwarka Expressway, gained international recognition when its signature Skywalk was featured by National Geographic, highlighting its distinctive design. Continuing this legacy, One42 Golf Course Road has emerged as a benchmark in ultra-luxury living, with recent transactions exceeding Rs. 1 lakh per sq ft. The project reflects an elevated, design-led philosophy centred on exclusivity, spacious living, and low-density residences for UHNI buyers.

Saatori, Experion’s second project in Noida after the success of Experion Elements, recorded approximately Rs. 1,800 crore in sales at launch, with more than 400 units sold. The response underlined the strength of demand for premium housing in Noida and demonstrated Experion’s ability to extend its success beyond Gurugram.

Product-Centric Growth Anchored in Design and Wellness

At the core of Experion’s growth is a design-first philosophy that integrates international architectural expertise with a deep understanding of Indian urban living. The company has partnered with leading global design firms, including Kohn Pedersen Fox (KPF), SCDA Architects, DPA Architects, and DSP Design, embedding global standards in master planning, spatial design, and overall product experience.

Experion Developers was the first real estate developer in India to receive WELL Precertification for residential projects, recognising homes designed for healthier living through cleaner air and water, better ventilation, more daylight, and enhanced liveability.

Havmor, part of Lotte India Corporation Pvt. Ltd., has launched its latest innovation—Guava Chilli Ice Cream, inspired by the much-loved Indian street-style combination of guava sprinkled with chilli and masala.

Introducing a first-of-its-kind nostalgic flavour inspired by India’s beloved guava with chilli, reimagined for the modern consumer

Rooted in a familiar taste memory, the new flavour delivers a balanced blend of sweet, tangy, and spicy notes staying true to Havmor’s philosophy of evolving existing preferences rather than reinventing them.

Guava Chilli Ice Cream captures the essence of a nostalgic street-side experience and translates it into a creamy, indulgent format. Crafted with 25% fruit preparation, the product reinforces real fruit credentials while retaining Havmor’s signature milk-based richness.

Built on Insight, Not Experimentation
Commenting on the launch, Rishabh Verma, Head Marketing, said, “Guava with chilli is a deeply rooted flavour across India.

The chilli sachet introduces personalization, while the fruit content and creamy texture ensure authenticity. Early response has been very encouraging, with the product emerging as one of our top-performing tubs.”

The product is now available across general trade, Havmor parlours, and quick commerce platforms like BlinkIt, Zepto, Swiggy Instamart and Flipkart Minutes.

Supported by a high-impact OOH and social media campaign, the launch aims to bring alive the quirky nostalgia of this iconic pairing for today’s consumers.

India ranks as the fifth most spammed country in the world, according to the latest data released by Truecaller. Indonesia tops the list, followed by Chile, Vietnam, and Brazil.

Truecaller reveals global spam report 2025

The insights are based on anonymized and aggregated data from Truecaller, which has over 500 million users globally. In 2025 alone, the platform identified more than 68 billion spam and fraud calls worldwide.

India also features prominently in regional rankings, recording a spam intensity of 66%, placing it among the top five most affected markets globally. The nature of spam calls in India reveals a strong commercial bias, with sales and telemarketing calls accounting for 36%, followed by financial services at 18%, and scams contributing 12% of all spam activity.

Globally, the drivers of spam vary significantly by region. In Indonesia and Mexico, over 40% of spam calls originate from financial institutions such as banks and lenders. Chile stands out with debt collection accounting for 38% of spam calls -the highest concentration of a single category worldwide. Meanwhile, in Brazil and Nigeria, telecom-related calls dominate, often blurring the line between legitimate communication and fraud.

These patterns highlight a growing global concern: as automated spam continues to scale, trust in unknown calls is rapidly declining.

“The scale of what this data shows should concern everyone. Fraud, impersonation, and scams are affecting people’s daily lives in a way we have never seen before. In some countries, most unknown calls are now spam – that is a fundamental breakdown in how communication works. Our mission is to build trust in communication, and in 2026, we are focused on stopping fraud before it reaches people,” said Rishit Jhunjhunwala, CEO of Truecaller.

On March 31, 2026, Truecaller surpassed 500 million monthly active users globally, with more than 150 million users outside India. The complete report, including the full top 10 rankings and detailed regional insights, is available at the Truecaller Insights page.

About Truecaller

Truecaller is an essential part of everyday communication for 500 million active users worldwide, with more than one billion downloads since launch and 68 billion spam and fraud calls identified in 2025 alone. The company is headquartered in Stockholm and has been publicly listed on Nasdaq Stockholm since October 2021.

There’s a meaningful shift underway in how luxury homebuyers across NCR are making their choices. The decision is no longer just about upgrading to a larger apartment or a more premium address; it’s about rethinking where and how they want to live. Many are moving away from dense, central pockets that once defined prestige, toward more planned, open environments that offer a sense of calm and balance.

Noida Expressway: Redefining NCR’s luxury landscape through low-density living, expansive greenery, and world-class connectivity

It’s this shift in what people are looking for that naturally brings the Noida Expressway into the conversation. What draws attention here isn’t just new supply, but the consistency of planning: sectors that feel intentional, roads that don’t feel overburdened, and a rhythm of development that allows daily life to unfold with far less friction. Without needing direct comparisons, the difference is easy to sense: this is less about navigating density and more about inhabiting a space that feels designed for how people actually want to live. What’s also working in the Expressway’s favour is a growing sense of trust—something that goes beyond the usual infrastructure checklist. The Noida–Greater Noida Expressway has been around long enough for people to see how the corridor has evolved, making it easier to believe in what’s coming next. According to Anarock, the average residential price in Noida was approximately Rs 4,795 per sq. ft. in 2020. By Q1 2025, that figure had risen to Rs 9,200 per sq. ft., representing nearly 92% growth. Greater Noida performed even stronger at 98%, outpacing the broader NCR average of 81%.

The newly inaugurated Noida International Airport adds to that confidence, not just as a travel hub but as a signal that this side of the NCR is only going to become more relevant over time. Even metro expansions play into this perception; they don’t just reduce travel time, they make the area feel more connected and within reach in a very real way. For many luxury buyers today, the decision isn’t based on what the neighbourhood offers at this moment, but on what it promises to become, and increasingly, the Noida Expressway seems to answer that with quiet assurance.

In pockets like Sector 150 Noida and Sector 128 Noida, the focus isn’t just on taller towers or striking skylines, but on how much space is left around them. Wider greens, walking tracks, sports facilities, and a more open layout start to shape the experience of living here. It feels less compressed, more breathable. Moreover, the kind of buyer this corridor is attracting also says a lot about where the demand is coming from. HNIs and NRI buyers are leaning toward developments that offer a certain level of management, security, and brand assurance—homes they can trust even from a distance. Then there’s a more globally exposed professional segment that is drawn to smart features, wellness-led amenities, and a sense of community.

Rohan Agrawal, a mid-30s professional, had been scanning options across NCR for a while. “I was looking at multiple pockets, but something didn’t quite add up,” he says. “Gurugram had everything on paper, but it felt too crowded every time I visited. Central Noida was convenient, but the density wasn’t what I wanted long term.” His perspective shifted when he began exploring the Noida–Greater Noida Expressway.”

“What worked for me was the ease of getting around—reaching other parts of NCR didn’t feel like a task anymore,” he explains. He found himself spending more time around Noida Sector 150, where the difference became more tangible. “There’s a lot more open space, more greenery—it just feels less packed and easier to live in day to day.”

For Rohan, the decision gradually became clearer. “It wasn’t one single factor. It was how connectivity, space, and a more balanced pace of life all came together in one place.”

Another way to read the market’s direction is through the kind of developers choosing to deepen their presence here. When established names commit to a corridor, it usually reflects a certain confidence in how the area will evolve as a place to live. In that context, Prateek Canary in Noida Sector 150 offers a clear example. The project has been envisioned as a low-density, super-premium development, where the emphasis is on space, openness, and a more elevated living experience. It aligns closely with what this micro-market is coming to represent: lush green surroundings, uninterrupted views, and a quieter, more refined pace of life. With Prateek Canary already contributing to the micro-market’s evolving premium character, the group is planning to come up with an ultra-luxury development, which is likely to uplift the luxury narrative here.

What’s unfolding along the Noida–Greater Noida Expressway is part of a broader shift in how luxury is being understood across NCR. In that sense, the growing interest in this corridor isn’t just about market momentum. It reflects a changing urban aspiration, where long-term livability is starting to matter more than where a location once stood in the hierarchy.
