An MBA from Booth School of Business, Chicago, Vinod has had an illustrious career spanning 27 years with the K Raheja Corp group. He currently holds the position of Managing Director and CEO for the Commercial Real Estate Business of K Raheja Corp group, steering the overarching operational and business development strategies for the group's expansive commercial portfolio. He is on the board of directors of K Raheja Corp Investment Managers Private Limited (Formerly known as K Raheja Investment Managers LLP), Investment Manager to Mindspace Business Parks REIT. Prior to this, Vinod held office as CEO of the Investment Manager of Mindspace Business Parks REIT. In this role, he spearheaded the development of Grade A commercial real estate assets across India. It was under his leadership that Mindspace Business Parks REIT successfully debuted on the Indian Stock Exchanges in 2020.

He has been instrumental in growing several businesses multifold, while overseeing the most significant developments of the group. Vinod has, during his tenure, pioneered the concept of landmark business districts and premium residential and retail complexes, which have become benchmarks in Indian real estate. He is a key member of the leadership team that has built the K Raheja Corp group into one of the most respected names in Indian real estate.

A fine example of his work philosophy has resulted in building the brand ‘Mindspace’ – with the idea of establishing self-contained world-class business districts across cities; a concept which has completely revolutionized the Commercial Real Estate Sector in India.

Business districts were prescient, giving birth to a new-age philosophy of ‘live and work in India’. Another landmark project, conceptualized by Vinod, that redefined luxury living is the ultra-luxury residential complex, ‘Vivarea’ at Mahalaxmi, Mumbai. The residential complex now stands tall as an extraordinary approach to urban living, making it the beacon of premium residences. He has also played a vital part in the group’s initial move toward retail development, and played a key role in shaping the prominent shopping destination that is known to all as Inorbit Malls. Vinod is also a key voice on the FICCI Real Estate Committee, a congregation of top industry frontrunners, to drive policy changes in India.
