However, Sanjay describes Tata Housing as an organization with a purpose and not just a business. During the pandemic, when the entire world's industries were facing the brunt of unemployment, health and financial crisis, Tata Housing Developments ensured that its construction workers receive proper health insurances, education regarding the same, and timely & quicker payments.
