Welcome to another episode of “Keeping It Real” by Housing.com! Today, we’re diving into the Union Cabinet’s recent approval of 12 new industrial smart cities with a massive investment of Rs 28,602 crore. Designed with ‘plug-n-play’ and ‘walk-to-work’ concepts, these smart cities will span 10 states and key industrial corridors, aiming to ease congestion in major urban centers and strengthen the Golden Quadrilateral.
Despite the positive response to the government’s infrastructure push, PropTiger.com’s latest report shows a 6% decline in housing sales across India’s top eight markets during April-June, with notable exceptions in Bengaluru and Delhi-NCR, where demand grew by 30% and 10%, respectively.
To explore these developments, we’re joined by Mr Angad Bedi, Chairman and Managing Director of BCD Group—a prominent real estate player based in Bengaluru. We’ll discuss what’s driving BCD Group’s growth, the impact of the new smart cities, and the trends shaping the future of real estate in India.
