The Group will invest approximately Rs. 1400 crore in this development. The new project will offer high-rise ultra-luxury residences with integrated amenities designed to meet the aspirations of discerning homebuyers.
Sarthak Gaur, Director, Gaurs Group
Gaurs Group has been a first-mover and one of the most prominent developers in the Yamuna Expressway belt. The Group’s landmark 250-acre township on the expressway is, Gaur Yamuna City, that was conceptualized in 2014 —long before the upcoming Noida International Airport at Jewar was even announced. Today, the township stands delivered and is home to more than 10,000 residents. The township boasts of a CBSE affiliated Gaurs International School, a Sports Park, an upcoming mall, a 9 acres Lake Park, a police post, and multiple shopping complexes. Gaurs Group has also built World’s tallest 108 ft statue of Lord Shri Krishna within this township.
“Our association with Yamuna Expressway goes beyond business—it is a commitment built on vision and belief. We were among the first to invest in the region, even when the airport was just a dream. With the imminent operationalization of the airport, this region is set for exponential growth. Yamuna Expressway is the city of the future, and we are proud to be shaping it,” says Manoj Gaur, CMD, Gaurs Group.
The Group has got possession of the plot and has applied for map sanctions and other necessary approvals. The project will undergo RERA registration process after receiving all the approvals and any sales will commence post receiving the RERA registration number of the project.
“Sector 22-D is one of the most promising sectors along the Yamuna Expressway and is fast emerging as a future-ready destination for premium housing. Our upcoming project will not only be a symbol of fine living, blending lifestyle, wellness, and connectivity but it will also emerge as the region’s icon. With this investment, we are strengthening our footprints on Yamuna Expressway; this new project will have a potential topline of about Rs 2000 cr. We are also exploring the acquisition of more land parcels along the Expressway,” says Sarthak Gaur, Director, Gaurs Group.
Beyond residential developments, Yamuna Expressway is also witnessing a surge in industrial, institutional, hospitality, and commercial activity. Several industries are already operational, while construction is underway for corporate offices, retail hubs, and recreational zones. With the airport operations expected to commence soon, the region is poised to emerge as a corporate and lifestyle hub in the coming years.

Coastal Calm to Urban Luxe: Lumeil’s Style-Based Lighting Categories Explained
25th August 2025, Jaipur : In high design, every choice is a self-portrait in form. The curve of a chair, the warmth of a finish, the fall of light at dusk — all of it becomes vocabulary in the language of space.
It is this understanding that defines Lumeil, India’s most refined e-commerce platform for premium decorative lighting. With its newest enhancement — style-based lighting categories — Lumeil reimagines the way design professionals and high-net-worth individuals discover lighting.
1. Coastal Calm
This style whispers of barefoot mornings, linen-draped lounges, and sunlight dancing across pale oak floors. Lumeil’s Coastal Calm category curates lighting that feels effortless — woven textures, sculptural whites, and soft diffusions that nod to the serenity of the sea.
Think handwoven rattan pendants, alabaster table lamps, and matte ceramics that glow as gently as a Goan sunset. Perfect for vacation homes, breezy verandahs, and clients who understand that simplicity is not minimal — it is mindful.
2. Urban Luxe
Bold, confident, and unapologetically tailored — Urban Luxe is for homes that reflect the skyline. This collection leans into strong silhouettes, warm metallics, and moody tones. Brass meets black glass. Marble meets matte gunmetal.
Each piece here is a quiet power move — lighting designed not to impress, but to intrigue on the second. Ideal for city penthouses, art-filled apartments, and homes where luxury is always lived, never performed.
3. Timeless Heritage
An homage to enduring Indian artistry, Timeless Heritage is where tradition meets taste. These are pieces that feel rooted, but never rustic — featuring inlay work, blown glass, hand-finished brass, and detailing inspired by temple architecture, Mughal motifs, and Rajasthani craftsmanship.
This category speaks to those who collect with connoisseurship — who see lighting not just as function or décor, but as a continuation of cultural legacy.
4. Modern Organic
For those who appreciate quiet restraint, Modern Organic blends the architectural with the elemental. The edit includes natural finishes, abstract forms, and tonal palettes — lighting that pairs effortlessly with natural stone, textured walls, and spaces designed to breathe.
Here, light is not cast — it is exhaled. This category is a favorite among contemporary architects and wellness-led homes — those who design with both atmosphere and aura in mind.
A Digital Platform Curated Like a Private Gallery
Lumeil’s categorization is not an algorithmic filter. It is an editorial lens — created by and for design professionals who believe that selection should inspire, not overwhelm.
With each style, the platform offers nuanced discovery, designer notes, and pieces that feel less like “SKUs” and more like signature pieces in a collector’s cabinet.
“We do not curate for clicks. We curate for character. These style categories are designed to give clarity to chaos — to help both designers and homeowners discover pieces that feel aligned with who they are, not just what’s trending.” Naman Jain, Co-Founder, Lumeil

Savoury Bao’s
I. Char Siu Bao
Craving rich, meaty indulgence? The Cantonese-style barbecue pork belly bao is a feast for the senses. Tender, marinated pork belly is slow cooked to perfection and infused with a blend of spices. Wrapped in pillowy bao dough, each bite bursts with savory goodness that leaves you wanting more.
II. Veg Bao
Looking for a fresh and flavour-packed bite? The veg bao brings together crisp leafy greens, tender mushrooms, crunchy carrots, and sweet onions, tossed in a savoury sauce. The result is a textural delight with a soft, chewy bao exterior with a vibrant, flavourful filling that’s light yet satisfying.
Dessert Bao’s
III. Black Sesame Bao
Do you enjoy bold, nutty flavours with a hint of sophistication? The black sesame bao delivers just that. Fragrant, slightly sweet, and earthy, each bite offers a refined depth of flavour that is comforting yet adventurous, perfect for those who love a little culinary elegance in every bite.
IV. Dou Sha (Red Bean) Bao
Craving a taste of nostalgia? The red bean bao brings you straight back to childhood kitchens, where sweet, tender red beans were a treasured treat. Wrapped in fluffy, airy bao dough, each bite is a harmonious mix of sweetness and texture, evoking cozy memories and familiar warmth. Inspired by cherished family recipes, it’s a bite that feels like home.
This World Bao Day, don’t forget to savour every bite, enjoy the tale, and make it a memorable foodie experience!
Beyond Beautiful: Why Designers Trust Lumeil When Projects Cannot Fail
21st August 2025, Jaipur – In the realm of high-stakes interior design — where timelines are tight, expectations are exacting, and every object must carry the weight of intent — lighting is never an afterthought. It is, in fact, the signature — the final stroke on the canvas that elevates a well-designed space into an unforgettable one.
And in that rarefied space, where the margin for error is as narrow as the brief is bold, one name is quietly — but confidently — earning trust where it matters most: Lumeil.
The Brand Designers Do Not Just Admire — They Rely On
Lumeil, India’s most curated e-commerce destination for decorative lighting, has become the insider’s choice for architects and interior designers building homes for the country’s top 1%. Not because it dazzles with noise. But because it delivers — on time, with taste, and without compromise.
Lumeil has lit up India’s most exacting projects with products that are not only beautiful but bulletproof in their reliability. In a category flooded with inconsistency, Lumeil has earned a reputation as a procurement partner who understands the stakes.
“Quiet Luxury” Is a Mood — But Also a Method
Every piece on Lumeil’s platform is hand-selected, designer-approved, and thoroughly vetted. But beyond the surface sheen lies what truly sets the brand apart: an invisible infrastructure of precision coordination, real-time inventory accuracy, and proactive support.
It is the kind of operational excellence that is often invisible to the end user — but invaluable to the professionals behind the build.
“We don’t just work with brands we love — we work with partners we trust,” says a Mumbai-based interior architect who has specified Lumeil lights across multiple homes in Udaipur, Goa, and London.
“Lumeil has never let us down — and that is rare in this industry.”
A Curated Platform. A Studio Mindset.
Unlike traditional marketplaces drowning in endless scrolls of generic options and catalog overwhelm, Lumeil has built its model more like a private design studio. The experience is white glove, the interface is intuitive, and the team speaks the language of design, not discounts.
Its collections are not trend-chasing, but trend-transcending — refined for those who do not need lighting that shouts but speaks. Whether it is the textured quiet of an alabaster sconce or the sculptural drama of a statement chandelier, the Lumeil edit feels deliberate, not decorative.
For Projects That Cannot Fail, Neither Can the Lighting
Lumeil’s B2B partnerships are built not just on product curation, but on project fluency — the ability to anticipate needs, match mood boards with inventory, and problem-solve mid-project with grace and speed.
It is why the country’s top design practices return — not because they are wooed, but because they are understood.
“We built Lumeil for people who love beauty but cannot afford delay. For clients who are discerning, yes — but also deadline-bound. We understand that in this business, reliability is the real luxury.”
— Naman Jain, Co-Founder, Lumeil
Ras Al Khaimah Emerging as One of the Region’s Fastest-Growing Real Estate Markets
Ras Al Khaimah, UAE , August 21, 2025: Ras Al Khaimah is experiencing an unprecedented real estate boom, rapidly emerging as one of the most dynamic property markets in the United Arab Emirates, guided by the forward-looking vision of His Highness Sheikh Saud bin Saqr Al Qasimi, UAE Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Ras Al Khaimah.
The Emirate is shaping its skyline as it builds its resilient, diversified economy, in line with its ambitious strategy that centers around sound planning, sustainability, enhancing quality of life for its citizens and residents and world-class developments.
In the past three years, property sales and prices have surged in Ras Al Khaimah, driven by a wave of hospitality, commercial and residential projects. Moreover, an expected population growth from 0.4 million to 0.65 million by 2030 is set to generate demand for an estimated 45,000 additional residential units. This sustained growth is anchored in a diversified economy, investor-friendly regulations and the entry of global developers into the market, such as Emaar, Aldar and Ellington, alongside local leaders Marjan, Al Hamra and RAK Properties.
At the forefront of Ras Al Khaimah’s transformation is Al Marjan Island, a premier waterfront destination making strides in the sector under the leadership of CEO Eng. Abdullah Al Abdooli, and playing host to ultra-luxury brands including Wynn, JW Marriott, Nobu, Missoni and The Address. Further expanding its offering, Marjan is developing RAK Central, a multifunctional hub that blends business, lifestyle and innovation, and is set to become one of the Northern Emirates’ largest commercial districts. The development features premium Grade-A offices and prioritizes environmental sustainability through cutting-edge green building practices, in line with the Emirate’s 2030 Vision.
For its part, developer Al Hamra, led by CEO Benoy Kurien, continues to set the standard for integrated living with Al Hamra Village’s more than 4,000 homes, golf course and vibrant community of over 10,000 residents, complemented by major projects such as Waldorf Astoria Residences, Falcon Island, Al Hamra Waterfront and the Emirate’s largest and most popular retail hub – Manar Mall.
Further along the coast, RAK Properties is enhancing the Emirate’s shoreline with its flagship Mina development, already home to award-winning resorts, such as Anantara Mina Ras Al Khaimah and InterContinental Ras Al Khaimah. The development is gearing up to welcome upcoming additions, such as Nikki Beach, Staybridge Suites and the planned Four Seasons.
“The vision for Ras Al Khaimah is becoming a reality,” said RAK Properties Chairman Abdulaziz Abdullah Al Zaabi. “We are creating a vibrant, sustainable environment that is attracting global investment while maintaining the unique culture and natural heritage of our Emirate.”
Meanwhile, the company’s CEO Sameh Muhtadi asserted that: “What we have seen over the past couple of years is remarkable. We are witnessing unprecedented global interest – and this momentum will only continue.”
Underpinning Ras Al Khaimah’s real estate evolution is a robust infrastructure. The Emirate boasts eight hospitals, including the state-of-the-art RAK Hospital, and a modern education system where private schools are regulated by the Department of Knowledge. Additionally, the Emirate consistently ranks among the safest places in the world, adding to its growing livability credentials.
Tourism is another central pillar of the Emirate’s advancement, setting a record in 2024 that saw Ras Al Khaimah welcome 1.28 million tourists, drawn by attractions such as Jais Flight – the world’s longest zipline – Bear Grylls Explorers Camp and 1484 by Puro, the UAE’s highest-altitude restaurant. A leading stakeholder in the sector is RAK Hospitality Holding, which, under CEO Alison Grinnell, continues to drive the tourism-hospitality nexus with strategic hotel acquisitions and innovative offerings.
Ras Al Khaimah is undeniably one of the fastest-growing markets in the region, industry leaders agree, as new beachfront apartments, luxury villas, golf communities and lifestyle hubs continue to attract investors and residents alike. At the heart of it all is Ras Al Khaimah’s 2030 Vision – a sustainable, inclusive strategy that places people at its core. With more global developers, investors and residents joining the journey, the Emirate is becoming a benchmark for smart urban growth, vibrant communities and opportunity-driven living.
