A Shayona site under construction

Construction

The company the rest of the group grew out of.

Building began in 1989. The firm was constituted as Shayona Land Corporation in 1997, and on 1 April 2026 it converted and began trading as Shayona Constructions Limited, a public limited company. The name on the buildings has not changed.

Seventy-five and more projects, private and government together. Fifteen thousand and more homes handed over as at 31 March 2026, twenty thousand and more commercial units sold, and sixty-five million square feet covered. Ten million square feet are underway.

The private half sells: apartments, bungalows, shops, offices and industrial estates, nearly all of it in Ahmedabad and much of it within a few kilometres of where the family has always lived.

The other half does not sell anything. It builds to a public specification, hands the finished thing to a government department, and walks away. The work is judged differently — by whether it opens on the date it was promised, and by how it wears.

The two are kept apart here, as they are kept apart in the office. A public contract is not a scheme with a brochure, and the record reads more honestly when neither is asked to stand in for the other.

A drawing of four blocks going up together, none of them the same height and no two with the same elevation. In each, the ground opens, a podium is cast, columns rise and a floor slab lands on them storey by storey, the bays fill in behind the frame from the bottom up, and a parapet closes the top. They start and top out at different points, so at any moment one is finished, one is halfway and one has barely left the ground.

Scrub it with the page, forwards or back. Four blocks go up at their own rates — different heights, different bay rhythms, four different elevations — and each ends the way every one of them ends, with somebody being handed the keys. It is a drawing rather than a film: the group holds no time-lapse of a building going up, and a fabricated one would be a picture of something that never happened.
