Leave a comment

The Prestige Group has emerged as the only developer in India to receive the coveted ‘Crisil DA1 Excellent’ rating.

Bangalore, India, Thursday – May 24, 2012 — The Prestige Group ( http://www.prestigeconstructions.com ) has emerged as the only developer in India to receive the coveted ‘Crisil DA1 Excellent’ rating. While the Crisil DA1rating, which is the highest form of certification among developers, is sought by all in the sector, it is only the Prestige Group which has managed to walk away with the ‘Excellent’ rating from them, within India, thus reinforcing their position as one of the foremost developers in the country today.

Mr. Irfan Razack – CMD, Prestige Group said, “While the Prestige Group has always attempted to create benchmarks and raise the bar through their innovation, creativity and determination to provide international standards of quality and design in their various developments, a certification of the highest level from an authority such as Crisil will surely reinforce the faith that thousands of loyal Prestige patrons have in the company.”
