The repo rate cut is a reduction in the interest rate at which the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) lends to commercial banks. This reduction is aimed at lowering the cost of borrowing for individuals and businesses, making loans more affordable.
The repo rate cut benefits home buyers by reducing the interest rates on home loans, which in turn reduces the monthly EMI (Equated Monthly Installment) and increases the purchasing power of buyers, making it easier for them to afford homes.
Tax exemptions for first-time home buyers include deductions on home loan interest and principal repayment, which reduce the overall financial burden on buyers and make home ownership more affordable.
These measures are expected to increase demand for affordable housing, boost the construction industry, create jobs, and contribute to the overall financial well-being of the population by providing more affordable housing options.
