The government's introduction of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 (RERA) has brought much-needed transparency to the sector, leading to disciplined growth and sustainability solutions. Since its enactment, over 1.25 lakh projects have been registered under RERA across the country.
Industry leaders believe that the housing and real estate sector needs a constant push to achieve the goal of 'Viksit Bharat' by 2047. This push will not only generate more employment opportunities but also contribute significantly to the country's GDP. The real estate sector is currently valued at Rs 24 lakh crore, with a GDP contribution of around 13.8%.
In a bid to provide 'ease of living' and dignity to millions of Indians, the government has decided to further expand the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) and construct 3 crore additional rural and urban houses. This move is expected to give a significant boost to the sector, attracting more foreign investment and driving growth.
