The World Realty Congress (WRC) Awards 2025 in Dubai recently acknowledged ADDA, a prominent Indian PropTech platform, for its innovations in Community and Property Management. The recognition highlights the platform’s ability to meet rigorous international standards.
The double victory at the World Realty Congress Awards, which recognizes technological innovation and service excellence across the Middle East and globally, is a powerful validation. It confirms that Society management software born in India can not only compete but dominate against the world’s biggest players.
On December 12, 2025, at the Mövenpick Grand Al Bustan, ADDA was honored with two significant accolades:
- Best Tenant Engagement Solution – Silver
- PropTech Company of the Year – Bronze
This achievement reinforces ADDA’s leadership and, more importantly, showcases the success of a sustainable, India-first apartment association management software model on a demanding global stage.
What are the best property management practices derived from the Dubai market?
The Dubai real estate market is well known for its highly regulated and sophisticated environment, particularly its rigorous governance structures and strong emphasis on financial transparency, driven by government initiatives like Mollak.
Over the last six-plus years, ADDA’s close engagement with this demanding society management and real estate market has acted as a powerful catalyst. These world-class operational and governance requirements have been systematically engineered and refined within the ADDA’s society maintenance and accounting app.
This global innovation loop has a direct and massive benefit for ADDA’s Indian customer base: our Resident Welfare Associations (RWAs) and Managing Committee members.
What global best practices are now in-built in ADDA, and why does it matter to Indian Management Committee members?
Unlike the professional Owner Association Management (OAM) companies in Dubai, most Indian Management Committees consist of volunteers. These are residents who dedicate their personal time but often lack formal training in housing society management, governance, or finance.
This is where the ‘Dubai-incubated’ innovations become transformative for Indian management committees and RWAs:
- Automated Statutory Accounting – Simplifying complex financial compliance.
- Detailed Financial Transparency Reports – Building trust and accountability among residents.
- Guidelines & Violation Tracking – Centralises community rules and violation handling in a transparent, rule-based system. With this module built into the product, Indian MCs avoid personal conflicts and ensure fair, documented enforcement.
- Budgeting & Expense Comparison – Tracks budget vs actuals with category-wise and year-on-year comparisons. This module immensely helps Indian MCs proactively control costs and justify spends with data.
- PRPO (Purchase Request → Purchase Order) – Introduces approvals and budget checks before any expense is committed. This module greatly reduces financial risk and protects MCs during audits and disputes.
- Defect Liability Period (DLP) Tracking – This module is a huge boon for developers, which helps their community management team track defects, warranties, and developer liabilities after handover.
- Community Forms – This feature is of huge help, which standardises submissions for renovations, access cards, move-ins, and approvals, and eliminates incomplete requests, follow-ups, and ad-hoc decision-making.
These advanced features now empower Indian volunteers to manage their communities with professional precision, significantly higher operational efficiency, and strict adherence to best practices with ADDA ERP, regardless of the volunteer’s background or experience level.
ADDA’s World Realty Congress 2025 success is ultimately a win for every RWA and Managing Committee in India, bringing world-class governance standards right to their fingertips.
