Signature Global Signs Rs 380 Crore MoU For Earthquake-Resistant Towers
Last Updated:
Signature Global will invest Rs 380 crore with CECO Hirun Pvt Ltd to use Hysteretic Tuned Mass Dampers in 80-100 towers.
CECO Hirun Pvt Ltd is an engineering company formed through a strategic joint venture between CECO Infratech Pvt Ltd and international partners.
Realty firm Signature Global on Saturday said it will invest Rs 380 crore on adoption of advanced earthquake resistance technology in its ongoing and future residential projects.
The company has “signed a Rs 380-crore Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Indo Italian Joint Venture CECO Hirun Pvt Ltd for this construction technology”.
The ‘Hysteretic Tuned Mass Dampers (HTMDs)’ technology is a specialised system designed to reduce vibrations in high-rise buildings caused by wind and earthquakes, the company said.
By controlling building movement, it enhances stability and occupant comfort.
“Around 80-100 high rise residential towers will be covered under this Rs 380 crore MoU,” said Lalit Aggarwal, Co-Founder & Vice Chairman of Signature Global.
He said the scope of the MoU will be expanded as per the company’s requirement.
“As India’s cities grow taller, the responsibility to ensure safety, comfort, and long-term value for residents becomes even more critical. Our collaboration with CECO Hirun Pvt Ltd combines global expertise with deep understanding of local construction practices, enabling technically robust systems that integrate seamlessly into our building designs,” Aggarwal said.
In seismic-prone regions like Delhi-NCR (Seismic Zone IV), integrating advanced vibration control solutions at the design stage is crucial for long-term safety and stability, the company said.
Agostino Marioni, Chairman, CECO Hirun India Pvt Ltd, said the company has partnered with Signature Global to deploy advanced vibration-control technology across their high-rise developments. “This initiative reflects our shared commitment to engineering excellence and innovation, setting new benchmarks for resilient, future-ready infrastructure in India,” he added.
Signature Global is one of the leading real estate companies in the country.
As of September 2025, the company has successfully delivered 16 million sq ft of real estate.
In the last fiscal year, Signature Global reported sales bookings of Rs 10,290 crore.

Banks to report all related party forex derivative transactions: RBI – The Times of India
Mumbai: RBI has required banks to report all foreign exchange derivative deals involving the rupee undertaken in India and globally by their entire group, including overseas branches, subsidiaries, and parent entities. This brings into view offshore trades that were earlier largely invisible. This applies to both OTC deliverable and offshore non-deliverable contracts, meaning even speculative offshore bets on the rupee must now be disclosed. Banks now must report detailed transaction data-size, counterparty, maturity, and structure-no later than two working days, though trades below $1 million and certain already-reported or internal hedging transactions are exempt.

Currently, under a so-called Section 21 notice, a landlord can evict a tenant without giving a reason – and with just eight weeks’ notice. The new legislation will restrict landlords to a handful of legal reasons for evictions, including wanting to move back in, anti-social behaviour by tenants or persistent rent arrears.
