The policy, aimed at promoting affordable housing and sustainable urban development, has been widely welcomed by the real estate industry.
CREDAI-MCHI, a leading real estate body in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, believes that the policy will have a transformative impact on the region's urban landscape.
The Union Budget 2025 outlines several key reforms that are expected to boost the real estate sector.
These reforms include the allocation of significant funds for the development of affordable housing, the introduction of new incentives for first-time homebuyers, and the implementation of policies to streamline the regulatory framework.
According to CREDAI-MCHI, these measures will not only make housing more accessible but also stimulate economic growth in the region.
One of the primary focuses of the new housing policy is the provision of affordable housing.
The budget proposes the allocation of Rs.
50,000 crore to the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) to ensure that every household in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region has access to a decent home.
This allocation is expected to significantly reduce the housing deficit in the region and improve the quality of life for millions of residents.
In addition to financial support, the budget introduces several incentives for first-time homebuyers.
These include tax rebates, subsidies, and reduced processing fees.
The incentives are designed to make home ownership more affordable and accessible, particularly for middle-income and low-income families.
CREDAI-MCHI has praised these measures, stating that they will encourage more people to invest in property and contribute to the overall growth of the real estate market.
Another significant aspect of the housing policy is the focus on regulatory reforms.
The budget proposes the implementation of a transparent and efficient regulatory framework to streamline the approval process for housing projects.
This will reduce the time and costs associated with project development, making it easier for developers to bring new housing units to the market.
CREDAI-MCHI has emphasized that these reforms will boost investor confidence and attract more investment into the sector.
The new housing policy also places a strong emphasis on sustainable development.
The budget allocates funds for the development of green buildings and the implementation of energy-efficient technologies.
This is in line with the government's commitment to reducing carbon emissions and promoting a more sustainable built environment.
CREDAI-MCHI has expressed its support for these initiatives, stating that they will not only benefit the environment but also create new opportunities for innovation and growth in the real estate sector.
Overall, CREDAI-MCHI believes that the new housing policy proposed in the Union Budget 2025 will have a positive impact on the real estate market in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region.
The combination of financial support, incentives for homebuyers, regulatory reforms, and a focus on sustainable development is expected to drive structured urban development and improve the quality of life for residents.
The organization is optimistic about the future of the real estate sector and looks forward to working closely with the government to implement the new policy effectively.
