The SOBHA Story

Sobha Limited, a Rs. 26 billion company, is one of India's largest and only backward integrated real estate and contracting players in the country. Since its inception in 1995, the company has always strived for benchmark quality, a customer-centric approach, robust engineering, a high degree of business ethics, timeless values, and transparency in all spheres of business conduct, which have contributed to making Sobha, a preferred real estate brand in India.

Backward integration is what drives the organisation's turnkey projects. In a turnkey scenario, we bring the expertise of all our divisions to focus on every single aspect of a project. In other words, everything from precision engineering to aesthetic design and from quality metal glazing to high-class interiors is done in-house. This allows for stringent control of quality, which in turn gives our customers a fine combination of precision and aesthetics. The Infosys centres in Bangalore, Mysore and several other cities are fine examples of our expertise in turnkey construction.

Social Contributions

At SOBHA, we believe that some of our finest achievements do not just refer to our growth figures. They also extend to Vadakkenchery, Kizhakkenchery and Kannambra – three panchayats in the Palakkad district of Kerala, each consisting of 2 villages. To usher in holistic growth at the grass-root level, the company, under the aegis of its CSR arm, ‘Sri Kurumba Educational & Charitable Trust’, initiated Graamasobha – a unique social development initiative for the three-gram panchayats in the the the year 2006.

An in-depth Social Empowerment Mapping Exercise (SEME) was undertaken by the Social Empowerment Department (SED) of the Trust to fulfil the following objectives.

• To identify and enlist genuine beneficiary families from the two panchayats using clear-cut norms and terms
• To generate qualitative and multi-dimensional ‘Baseline Reports’ on the target families, so that specific programmes and activities could be implemented for their benefit
• To devise target-based, area-specific empowerment programmes and activities for key human development verticals like education, health, employment, housing, sanitation and water
• To design an effective mechanism to measure and monitor processes and the pace of the empowerment programmes of the Trust
• In 2006, the Trust selected and trained a team on a full-time basis to complete the exercise. For about a year, they studied the incidence, depth, and severity of poverty of the beneficiaries with the help of various mapping methods. Families, which had extremely poor living conditions or those which had a monthly income level of 7,500 or below, were categorised as Below Poverty Line (BPL). The Trust has identified nearly 4485 families (around 17171 people) from the Below Poverty Line (BPL) bracket. Beneficiary identity cards were issued to the adopted families. As a result, the Trust has detailed and authentic data about each beneficiary and his or her individual requirements.

Based on the data, the Graamasobha model was developed. The lives of thousands of underprivileged citizens are getting positively transformed through this growth model, which has a bottom-up approach to poverty alleviation.
