About

Ashwinder R. Singh has led platforms across advisory, development, and PropTech at scale in Indian real estate. Four institutions. Four CEO mandates. Thirty years. Built on a consistent architecture—scale, institutional capital, technology, and disciplined execution. Today, as Vice Chairman & CEO, BCD Group, and Co-Founder of BCD Royale, he is transforming a 70-year construction legacy into a capital-disciplined development platform. BCD City—a 70-acre integrated township in Bengaluru—is that transition in motion. Previously, he served as CEO, JLL Residential India; Co-founder & CEO, ANAROCK—now India’s largest residential advisory and PropTech platform; and CEO, Bhartiya Urban, where he led a 150-acre integrated township. Across these mandates, he has been associated with real estate transactions exceeding ~$5 billion. His foundation lies in capital. Citibank. Deutsche Bank. ICICI Bank. Fullerton Singapore. Bajaj Housing Finance. Fifteen years across structured finance, housing credit, construction finance, and cross-border capital—an orientation that continues to shape every decision. Today, his work extends beyond operating roles. Mentor at Earth Fund—backed by Brigade and Gruhas (Nikhil Kamath)—focused on PropTech, UrbanTech, and sustainability. Chief Advisor to BitSave and Loan Network. Mentor to founders through IIT Bombay E-Cell and India Accelerator. Chairman, CII Real Estate Committee, and member of the CII National Ease of Doing Business Task Force. Advisor to NAR-India and RICS SBE. He has led CII delegations to the UAE, Singapore, and London. He also contributes to shaping industry discourse—as Chief Advisor (Real Estate) to Republic Media Network, and through advisory roles with Realty+ and Construction Week. A three-time Amazon #1 bestselling author, his work is widely referenced across the industry. The compass is personal. His father—a decorated 1971 war veteran and UN peacekeeping martyr. That legacy does not sit on a wall. It shows up in decisions. Nation before self. Integrity above ambition.
