The beginning of the beginnings

Understanding the financial distress of a farmer and evaluating the challenges of the EPC companies, Pranav created a path breaking co-development model under which he established a team of experts for land acquisition from the farmers on lease and further help EPC companies in facilitating the establishment of mega solar and wind energy projects. The strategic model put less fertile lands to a great use and enabled the farmers with a recurring source of monthly income while retaining their land's possession. Further understanding the challenges of creating an infrastructure for mega energy projects in such remote areas, Pranav facilitated the process of developing roads, sewages, pipelines, boundary walls, street lighting and more. Hence, Pranav’s vision towards energy development created a sustainable WIN-WIN model for the farmers and the EPC companies while generating new avenues of green and clean energy production for the country.

The successful journey Valente NRG propelled his ambitions and pushed Pranav to strive further into the world of real estate. The year 2018 marked the onset of an era with the announcement of another venture backed by Pranav’s vision- Swarna Griha. Pranav holds a deep connection with Swarna Griha and calls it his dream project because this project fulfils the dream of a common household. Swarna Griha, a venture under Felicity Adobe, provides premium affordable housing to lower middle class and middle class income group. Followed by Prime Minister's vision of “Pradhan Mantri Awaas Yojana”, Swarna Griha I was launched in 2018 at a mere price of 14.5 lakhs to bring million dreams to reality.

This success encouraged Pranav for another leap and by 2019, he announced a new chapter in premium affordable living with Swarna Griha II. Pranav made the dreams happen and glorified them with the sense of premium living. Introduction of MIVAN shuttering, imported from Malaysia, helped Pranav entrench a new pedestal in the sphere of construction for Tumakuru and lead to the development of 700 homes. Under the umbrella of Swarna Griha, Pranav launched Swarna Griha III and IV in 2021 and 2022 respectively and introduced premium living and automated homes at the cost of affordable housing on the lands of Kolar and Belgaum. It was a challenge for some customers to buy their dream home due to mismanaged tax filings and poor banking history but Pranav didn’t let this become a set back and established a team to guide such customers through banking procedures while handholding them through loan application process.

The year 2023 was wrapped on a record-breaking note for Swarna Griha as the company clocked 120+ crores of revenue by selling 1000+ homes across all projects. Continuing his streak of fulfilling countless dreams further, Pranav aims at developing 10000 homes with an estimated development of 30 lac sq. Ft. affordable township within next two years and extend the legacy of Swarna Griha to other states. The year 2024 also marks the commencement of two new mega projects for Bengaluru in the area of premium and luxury residences as planned by Pranav Sharma.
