Sarthak Gaur, Director of Gaurs Group, said, "The remarkable turnover of Rs 4,786 crore in the first three quarters of 2024-25 is a testament to the strength of our portfolio. Completely selling out 2 projects one after the other in a matter of 2-3 days is no mean achievement and we are very proud to be in that league." Manoj Gaur, Chairman and
