JSW One Acquires BuildNext to Strengthen Home Platform

05 May 2026 CW Team

JSW One Platforms has acquired BuildNext Construction Solutions to strengthen its presence in India’s home construction and renovation segment.

The acquisition builds on JSW One’s existing platform, JSW One Homes, enhancing its ability to offer integrated services spanning materials procurement, design, execution and project management to individual home builders, contractors and homeowners.

As part of the transaction, Pidilite Ventures will transfer its stake in BuildNext to JSW One through a share-swap arrangement, while continuing to participate in the company’s growth.

The integration combines JSW One’s supply chain capabilities, distribution network and credit solutions with BuildNext’s design and project management expertise, aimed at improving efficiency and transparency in a fragmented home construction market.

Gaurav Sachdeva, Joint Managing Director and CEO, JSW One Platforms, said, “Home construction in India remains highly fragmented… the addition of BuildNext strengthens this vision meaningfully.”

Sanket Parekh, Director, Pidilite Ventures, added, “We see significant potential in combining these capabilities with JSW One’s integrated platform…”

The move aligns with rising demand for organised, technology-led solutions in housing, driven by urbanisation, increasing incomes and preference for customised homes.
