GMI Infra: How a Chandigarh-Based Developer Is Building Real Estate That Stays Relevant Over Time

Chandigarh, November 28, 2025: Real estate across India is entering a phase where long-term usefulness matters more than short-lived excitement. Homebuyers want stability, businesses want predictability and cities want development that complements their natural rhythm. In this environment, GMI Infra, headquartered in Chandigarh, has emerged as a developer that focuses on durability, thoughtful planning and steady execution.

At the centre of this approach is its CEO and Founder, Mohit Bansal, whose philosophy is rooted in clarity, discipline and a deep understanding of how people actually use the spaces they live and work in.

A Developer Shaped by Structure and Observation
 
Mohit Bansal’s journey into real estate was shaped not by legacy, but by analysis. He got a degree in computer science and applied mathematics from the State University of New York and now approaches the area of development in infrastructure with the mindset of a problem. He set up GMI Infra in 2018, but before that he was observing the Indian infrastructure development for several years in different climates and terrains across the country. These observations convinced him even more that development should be in line with the geography, people’s requirements and the maintenance of the project for a long period.

This clarity forms the foundation of GMI Infra’s approach: build steadily, plan maturely and ensure that each environment supports both people and economic activity.

Portfolio Built on Real-World Understanding

GMI Infra’s projects are shaped by how people live their lives and how businesses operate on the ground.

GMI Business Park

Spread across approximately 90 acres, GMI Business Park integrates commercial and industrial units and service enterprises in a stable environment. It has become a dependable economic cluster where companies can function without disruptions.

Free Trade Zones & Logistics Parks – Across Uttar Pradesh (Upcoming)

Driving India’s next wave of industrial growth. GMI Infra has signed an MoU with the Government of Uttar Pradesh to develop free trade zones and a 200-acre logistics park. Valued at INR 500 crore and projected to scale to INR 1,000 crore, this transformative project is designed to enhance international trade, attract FDI, and foster innovation-driven manufacturing — marking a major milestone in India’s economic development journey.

Industrial Parks in Rajasthan

GMI Infra has in its pipeline the development of two state-of-the-art industrial parks in Rajasthan, strategically planned to boost manufacturing, warehousing, and logistics capacity in the region. With a combined project value of INR 1,000 crore, these parks will feature modern industrial plots, plug-and-play facilities, wide road networks, and green-certified infrastructure.

Mohali IT Park (Upcoming)

GMI Infra is developing a next-generation IT park in Mohali, envisioned as a future-ready hub for technology companies, startups, and global innovation teams. With an investment of ₹700 crore, the IT Park will feature Grade-A office towers, co-working zones, data-ready infrastructure, sustainable design, and a walkable, campus-style environment. Aligned with Mohali’s growing position as a technology corridor, this project will attract IT/ITES companies, create high-skilled employment, and contribute to the region’s digital-driven economic growth.

GMI IT Tower

Designed for emerging tech companies and service firms, the tower focuses on practical layouts, reliable facilities and efficient planning. It reflects the understanding that modern businesses want workspaces that support productivity, not distractions.

GMI Elite Homes

Modern families prefer simplicity, comfort and environments that feel stable. Elite Homes was created with this understanding. The emphasis is on usable space, thoughtful planning and a peaceful residential atmosphere.

New Districts Designed for the Next Phase of Growth

GMI Infra’s upcoming developments demonstrate its shift toward larger, integrated ecosystems.

GMI Residences

Planned as one of the tallest residential structures in Punjab, GMI Residences brings height and calmness together. Its design prioritises open views, privacy and a peaceful living experience.

GMI IT District

The GMI IT District is envisioned as a full ecosystem for technology, research and innovation. With dedicated spaces for IT companies and collaborative environments, it aims to become a strong source of jobs and economic movement.

GMI Platinum Square & GMI Sky Greens

These upcoming developments reflect GMI Infra’s move into city-shaping projects. Platinum Square focuses on commercial visibility, while Sky Greens represents a modern approach t sustainable, wellness-orientated living.

Across all projects, the company’s focus remains consistent: create environments that feel steady, adaptable and valuable over time.

A Leader Defined by Discipline and Purpose

Mohit Bansal is a professional who is very deliberate and systematic in his actions and this is his signature style among his groups. Before making any decision, he examines the topography of the area, the availability of utilities, the behaviour of the residents and the maintenance to be done in the long run. His engagement in various forums such as TiECON, BRICS CCI, CII, TEDx and national sustainability talks indicates that he is very much concerned about the development of Indian cities in a manner that is both responsible and intelligent.

Moreover, the fact that he is involved in other domains—including projects like Whispering Homes and MindSci AI—is a testimony to his futuristic vision that encompasses design and technology as well as planning. Besides, he is already supporting the education and health of children in Chandigarh, Mohali and Punjab through the GMI Charitable Trust, thus adding to the belief that development should be measured by the improvements it brings to the lives of the people in the community.

A Direction Focused on Steady, Responsible Expansion

GMI Infra’s roadmap includes multiple IT parks, industrial corridors, logistical hubs and urban districts across North and East India by 2030. The goal is not speed but clarity. Not expansion for scale, but expansion that remains relevant and valuable.

Mohit Bansal believes that development should improve both the experience of living and the environment in which it unfolds. He is creating such places through GMI Infra, which are people-friendly, economically increasing in the local area and urban futures which are more stable overall.

As Chandigarh and North India evolve, GMI Infra’s grounded, thoughtful approach offers a model for real estate that grows with cities rather than competing with them.
