The Union government has also made a provision of Rs 1.5 lakh crore for long-term interest-free loans to help states in their respective resource allocations. In Hyderabad, funds for most of the infrastructure projects executed under the Strategic Road Development Programme (SRDP), including flyovers, were raised by way of rupee term loans (RTL). However, the government has decided to execute infrastructure projects under the Hyderabad City Innovative and Transformative Infrastructure' (HCITI).
The budget also includes provisions to improve connectivity to rural habitations under Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY). Furthermore, funds will be provided for essential infrastructure such as water, power, railways, and roads on Hyderabad-Bengaluru Industrial Corridor.
The real estate sector is also expected to benefit from the budget allocations. Under the PM Awas Yojana Urban 2.0, the housing needs of one crore urban poor and middle-class families will be addressed with an investment of Rs 10 lakh crore. This includes central assistance of Rs 2.2 lakh crore in the next five years. The government will also promote water supply, sewage treatment, and solid waste management projects and services in 100 big cities through bankable projects.
In partnership with state governments and multilateral development banks, the union government will facilitate development of cities as growth hubs, which includes orderly development of peri-urban areas utilising town planning schemes. Rental housing with dormitory type accommodation for industrial workers and development of investment-ready “plug and play” industrial parks will also boost the real estate sector.
The government has also encouraged states to moderate stamp duty rates and consider further lowering duties on properties purchased by women.
Industry experts have welcomed the budget, stating that investments in infrastructure, urban planning, and digitization of land records are crucial steps towards enhancing the real estate sector in Hyderabad. These measures are expected to boost the sector's contribution to the economy and address the housing needs of millions, driving inclusive growth and development.
