At Capital City, smart energy systems, solar-integrated façades, IoT-based water management, and AI-powered building controls converge to create a digitally responsive, resource-efficient environment. These technologies are designed not just to reduce operational emissions, but to enable data-driven decision-making across the building lifecycle—lowering costs while elevating user comfort and efficiency. As India's cities grow denser and its climate challenges intensify, such integrated systems represent a shift from conventional construction to intelligent urban ecosystems. Chawla's approach to sustainability is strategic, not symbolic.

These methods align with global ESG expectations while supporting India's commitments under the Paris Agreement and its net-zero targets.

The IGBC Fellow Award is among the highest recognitions for leaders shaping India's sustainable built environment. For Chawla, it underscores a broader industry transition—where developers are no longer just builders, but enablers of climate action through infrastructure. 'We see sustainability not as an obligation, but as a design imperative,' Chawla noted at the ceremony. 'Green buildings must become the default, and technology is the bridge that will get us there.' His leadership is credited with building an organizational culture that prioritizes environmental responsibility and innovation—training a workforce of over 800 professionals equipped to deliver projects that are smart, sustainable, and community-focused. As urban development accelerates, Chawla's work offers a blueprint for integrating clean technologies, ethical design, and digital infrastructure at scale. With rising investor and policy focus on sustainable real estate, his contributions position BPTP among the few Indian developers actively shaping a greener, smarter built environment.
