Manan Bohra
Founder & CEO
Manan’s journey didn’t begin in air conditioned offices but at bustling construction sites, shadowing his father through vendor meetings, material yards, and project walkthroughs. This early exposure gave him a front-row seat to the realities of the business.
His true initiation, however, came when he was given a modest project in Karjat, limited budget, lean team, and high stakes. It was in these conditions that Manan learned the unglamorous but vital truths of construction: from managing labor to guarding against material theft, from dealing with delays to earning customer trust through transparency.
Those formative experiences now shape his leadership philosophy, one grounded in ownership, resilience, and continuous learning. Under his direction, Rock & Green Developers has grown into a next-generation real estate company known for its integrity, precision, and people first approach. Manan Bohra stands as a symbol of the new wave in Indian real estate: young, committed, and impact-driven, building not just structures, but trust and lasting value. Let’s hear more from him.
How do you deploy your experiences to extract strategic insights and governance expertise currently?
I focus on keeping operations lean, precise, and fully transparent. While our systems aren’t massive they are incredibly efficient. We rely on structured workflows, from daily site reports and supplier updates to customer feedback and financial tracking, all of which are digitized and reviewed regularly to maintain control and clarity.
I operate with a clear rhythm: weekly micro-reviews to stay close to the ground, and quarterly macro reflections to evaluate direction and strategy. This cadence helps us stay agile while never losing sight of long-term goals.
One of our most effective practices is conducting post-mortems at the end of each project phase. We create a 'lessons learned' document that openly assesses what worked and what didn’t. This turns experience into repeatable systems, rather than just anecdotes.
I also place strong emphasis on identifying and tracking the right KPIs.In construction, where variables shift constantly, consistent KPI monitoring isn’t optional, it’s mission-critical. It ensures we don’t just build projects, but build smarter every time.
What are the best practices you ensure the team follows to maintain the company’s position as a builder that homebuyers trust?
Trust isn’t a one-time achievement, it’s something we have to earn every single day. In real estate, even a small misstep can erase months of hard work and good will. That’s why at Rock & Green Developers, we’ve embedded a few non-negotiable practices into our culture.
First, we practice complete transparency. If there’s a delay or a mistake, we don’t hide it, we communicate it immediately and fix it. We call this zero-ego account ability: no blame-shifting, just solutions.
Second, ownership is everything. Once a task is assigned, the person owns it end-to-end. Whether it’s a minor update or a major execution item, responsibility doesn’t get passed around. We don’t ask who made the mistake, we ask who’s solving it.
Third, delivery is sacred. We don’t reward effort alone, we reward outcomes. If we’ve committed to something, we get it done.
Finally, quality control isn’t outsourced to paperwork. We physically show up on-site, review progress ourselves, and ensure every detail meets our standards. We're not perfect, but we’re consistent, and that’s what builds real, lasting trust.
What are the ways you guide the company to contribute towards the environment and social responsibility through every operation?

What are the ways you guide the company to contribute towards the environment and social responsibility through every operation?
At Rock & Green Developers, sustainability isn’t a buzzword, it’s the foundation of how we
operate. We’re working toward making our construction practices net zero by 2030. It’s ambitious, but essential. We’ve built an in-house R&D team focused on low -emission methods, energy-efficient design, and smarter material use.
Social responsibility is equally critical. We ensure our sites are clean, organized, and minimize disruption, less noise, less debris, more dignity for the neighborhood. For us, real development means creating spaces that uplift both people and the planet. We don’t believe in greenwashing, we believe in accountable, lasting impact.
What is your anticipation on the market, going forward?
The next decade will be about endurance over noise. We’ll see consolidation in the industry, with weaker players exiting and strong, value-driven developers rising. Homebuyers today are well-informed, they research deeply and ask the right questions. Regulatory bodies like RERA are tightening governance, which is great for long-term trust.
Design will take center stage, as people seek homes that reflect evolving life styles. A market correction is also likely, bringing more realistic pricing and renewed focus on quality. Regions like Karjat, Panvel, and Navi Mumbai are poised for smart, structured growth if developers approach them with discipline and fore sight.
What is your success mantra and where do you envision yourself to be in the next few years from now?
My success mantra is simple, ‘Cash is king, but vision is queen’. Cash keeps the business stable, but it’s vision that drives us forward. In the next few years, I see Rock & Green Developers launching our flagship mixed-use project and making a strong entry into Navi Mumbai with bold, design-led developments.
We aim to be recognized for our discipline, creativity, and flawless execution. The long-term dream is to create a high-tech, self sustaining township where homeowners pay near-zero maintenance and utility bills. Ultimately, we want people to trust that if it’s Rock & Green Developers, it’s done right.
