Chandigarh: Tata Steel, one of India’s most trusted names in construction and infrastructure, has launched Aashiyana 3.0, a next-generation platform that combines curated content with e-commerce to assist Individual Home Builders (IHBs) in creating their dream homes with greater certainty, efficiency, and control. Positioned as India’s first content-to-commerce homebuilding platform, Aashiyana 3.0 aims to redefine the home construction journey for consumers by integrating products, knowledge, and interactive tools in one digital ecosystem.


A Revamped Experience for Home Builders

The revamped portal has been designed with a consumer-first philosophy, offering not just Tata Steel’s premium products but also intuitive guidance and expert insights for every step of the homebuilding process.

Aashiyana 3.0 stands out by featuring self-help tools, DIY tutorials, product videos, and expert views that help home builders plan, design, and execute their projects while keeping them within budget. By combining content with commerce, the platform transforms into a comprehensive homebuilding advisor, assisting customers from the very beginning of their construction journey to its successful completion.


Content-Centric Approach

The platform’s content library is among its most unique features. It offers bite-sized, interactive content across 31 broad topics that span all five stages of home construction — from initial planning to finishing touches.

The content is presented in engaging formats such as articles, videos, comic strips, infographics, illustrations, and quizzes. This knowledge-focused approach ensures that even first-time home builders can easily understand complex technical concepts.

In addition, Aashiyana 3.0 includes DIY guides, product explainer videos, and expert-led tutorials that empower users to make informed decisions without requiring constant professional intervention.


Inspiration Meets Practicality

Recognizing that homebuilding is as much about aesthetics and design as it is about durability and quality, Aashiyana 3.0 introduces tools that enable IHBs to visualize their dream homes.

  • A design quiz helps users identify their personal style preferences.

  • A library of over 300 architecture plans offers creative inspiration for home layouts.

  • The platform introduces “idea boards” and visual planning tools, allowing users to curate and save design concepts they can later share with architects, contractors, or interior designers.

This blend of inspiration and practicality makes Aashiyana 3.0 a one-stop destination for both the functional and creative aspects of homebuilding.


A Platform Designed for Engagement

Speaking at the launch, Ashish Anupam, Vice President – Long Products, Tata Steel, said:

“Home builders today expect much more than just an online store. They seek inspiration, expert guidance, and intuitive tools to simplify complex decisions. The new Tata Steel Aashiyana platform (Aashiyana 3.0) is designed to address these critical consumer needs, making it a go-to place at every step of homebuilding. Evolving from a marketplace, Aashiyana 3.0 delivers an enhanced experience and expects to become a home builder’s most trusted advisor and friend.”

The gamified and interactive features of the platform are designed to increase user engagement, reduce dependency on human-assisted interactions, and encourage consumers to spend more time exploring the platform. By creating a personalized and seamless purchase journey, Tata Steel expects to drive higher customer satisfaction, greater platform stickiness, and increased gross merchandise value (GMV).


Strategic Goals and Consumer Benefits

Aashiyana 3.0’s launch is part of Tata Steel’s broader vision to digitally transform the homebuilding segment, enabling consumers to plan and execute projects confidently. The platform aims to:

  • Improve consumer experience by providing expert content and interactive tools.

  • Enhance decision-making through simplified, step-by-step guidance.

  • Build brand equity by becoming a trusted partner in the consumer’s homebuilding journey.

  • Reduce customer acquisition costs through organic engagement and loyalty-building strategies.

The addition of stage-by-stage construction guides, design ideas, and practical tools ensures that IHBs are well-supported from the planning stage all the way through execution, avoiding common pitfalls and delays.


Why Aashiyana 3.0 Matters?

The homebuilding industry in India has traditionally been fragmented and challenging for individual builders, who often face difficulties in sourcing quality materials, designing effective layouts, and staying within budget. With Aashiyana 3.0, Tata Steel brings together a curated marketplace and an educational hub, empowering IHBs to visualize, plan, and create their dream homes with confidence.

The platform’s unique ability to combine knowledge resources with product access sets it apart as a pioneering digital ecosystem — one that is likely to become a model for the future of home construction in India.


Key Highlights of Aashiyana 3.0:

  • India’s first content-to-commerce platform for homebuilding.

  • 31 broad topics covering all 5 stages of construction.

  • 300+ architecture plans and idea boards for design inspiration.

  • DIY tutorials, videos, quizzes, and expert guidance.

  • Interactive self-help tools for planning and budgeting.

  • Focus on improving user engagement and reducing human-assisted journeys.
