In Conversation With Pushkar Gokhale, Business Head of the Security Solutions Business of Godrej Enterprises Group. 

Pushkar Gokhale discusses how Godrej Enterprises Group is redefining premium home security through AI-enabled surveillance, facial recognition lockers, smart access systems, and connected IoT ecosystems tailored for high-net-worth homeowners. He also shares insights into the growing demand for seamless, design-led security solutions that combine advanced technology with personalised living experiences.

Please share details of your security solutions most suited for luxury homes (facial recognition, smart locks, surveillance, AI monitoring, etc.).

Godrej Enterprises Group’s Security Solutions portfolio is designed to meet the evolving needs of luxury homeowners who value both functionality and refined aesthetics. Our approach focuses on multi-layered ecosystems that seamlessly integrate access control, asset protection and monitoring.

At Smart Home Expo 2026, we unveiled NX Pro Ncrypt, India’s first facial recognition-enabled home locker. The solution integrates facial recognition, biometric fingerprint access, and digital PIN authentication into a single system, delivering enhanced convenience, privacy, and security through advanced AES encryption.

Our offerings also include premium home lockers such as NX Pro Luxe and Matrix Home Lockers, along with advanced electronic security solutions, including SeeThru Pro Nova, Neo Pro View, and Godrej SeeThru Nex Pro.

Further strengthening our connected ecosystem, our IoT9 technology platform enables homes to intuitively respond to residents by automatically adjusting lighting, temperature, and connected devices based on individual preferences. 

How do you ensure convenience, personalisation and ease of use for high-net-worth homeowners?

Our solutions are designed for flexibility, personalisation, and seamless control.

Our Video Door Phones allow master monitors to connect with slave monitors, outdoor stations, and CCTV cameras, enabling seamless communication and centralised control across large residences.

Our Wi-Fi Home Cameras further enhance convenience by offering mobile device access, intelligent alerts, and customizable settings for real-time monitoring.

At Smart Home Expo 2026, we also showcased our connected ecosystem powered by IoT9 technology, where homes automatically respond to user preferences. The moment a user unlocks the home using biometrics, lighting, temperature, and connected devices adjust automatically to create a seamless and personalised living experience.

Integrated with Alexa and Google Home, the ecosystem enables intuitive control across locks, cameras, sensors, and smart devices. 

Do your solutions incorporate AI for predictive threat detection, behaviour analysis, or automated alerts?

Yes, our solutions already incorporate intelligent monitoring and automated alert capabilities.

Our Wi-Fi Home Cameras feature humanoid detection technology that identifies human movement, sends real-time alerts, and triggers motion-based recording while reducing false alarms.

Our newly launched NX Pro Ncrypt combines facial recognition, biometric authentication, and digital PIN verification to strengthen intelligent access control.

Through our IoT9 technology ecosystem, connected devices can also respond dynamically to user activity, enabling more intuitive and adaptive security experiences.

Looking ahead, we see AI evolving toward contextual intelligence and predictive security, enabling systems to recognise behavioural patterns and deliver proactive responses. 

How do your products align with premium interior aesthetics?

Our products are designed to seamlessly blend advanced security with sophisticated interiors.

Solutions such as NX Pro Luxe and the newly launched NX Pro Ncrypt feature refined finishes, minimalist aesthetics, and contemporary designs suited for premium homes.

Our Matrix Home Lockers combine strong protection with elegant styling, while products like the SeeThru Pro Nova Video Door Phone feature slim profiles, clean lines, and intuitive interfaces.

Our connected locks, sensors, and IoT-enabled devices are also designed with premium finishes and compact profiles that integrate naturally into modern luxury spaces. 

Could you share examples of your products installed in luxury residences?

Our solutions are widely adopted across premium homes, villas, upscale apartments, and managed living spaces.

Matrix Home Lockers are commonly used to safeguard jewellery, heirlooms, and luxury watches, while personal lockers like Verge secure everyday valuables.

The newly launched NX Pro Ncrypt is particularly relevant for modern homeowners seeking future-ready security with facial recognition and biometric access.

Our Video Door Phones, Wi-Fi Cameras, connected locks, and integrated sensor-led solutions are also increasingly being adopted in luxury residences for enhanced convenience, visibility, and connected living experiences. 

What trends in integrated home security do you foresee shaping the luxury segment over the next 3–5 years?

The luxury home security market will increasingly be shaped by AI-driven predictive security, hyper-personalised smart spaces, and deeper ecosystem integration.

Consumers will expect homes to intuitively adapt to their preferences, from lighting and climate settings to access permissions and security controls.

Touchless and contactless solutions will continue gaining momentum. We also foresee growing demand for unified connected ecosystems where digital locks, surveillance systems, Video Door Phones, sensors, and automation platforms operate seamlessly together.

At Godrej, innovations such as IoT9 technology and our connected access solutions strongly align with these future trends. 

What hospitality-focused innovations did you showcase at Smart Home World Expo 2026?

The solution allowed guests to securely access room locks directly through a mobile browser via a simple web link, eliminating the need for app downloads.

This created a seamless, contactless, and faster check-in experience while also helping hospitality operators improve efficiency and reduce operational bottlenecks.

The innovation reflected our focus on creating intelligent, user-centric, and frictionless access solutions for the future of hospitality.

What did visitors appreciate most at the Smart Room showcase at the Expo?
