- The affordable housing market has witnessed the quickest recovery amongst the various realty segments impacted by Covid-19. In the third quarter of 2020-21, sales and new launches rebounded by almost 70 per cent. Further, nearly 40-45 per cent of the new launches in the top seven cities came from the affordable housing category.
- A slew of measures have been undertaken by the central and state governments for the recovery of the segment. Tax reliefs, extension of RERA deadlines, revision of circle rates, etc. have helped developers revive the supply momentum. Around Rs 130 billion have been committed under the Special Window for Affordable and Mid Income Housing stress fund for the completion of 135 real-estate projects stuck in various stages of construction. Further, the government’s pledge to recapitalise NBFCs and the National Housing Bank’s (NHB) infusion of Rs 100 billion in housing finance companies will result in credit expansion for developers.
- On the demand side, the unprecedented cut in the repo rates resulted in home loan interests coming down to sub-7 per cent levels. Besides, a supportive home loan structure, initiatives such as reduction in stamp duties and extension of the credit-linked subsidy scheme have accelerated the housing demand.
- Despite challenging times, progress has been made under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojna (PMAY) as well. Under its urban component, 4.1 million houses have been completed so far while construction is at various stages in more than 7 million houses.
- In a noteworthy move, the government launched the Affordable Rental Housing Complex (ARHC) scheme as a sub-component of PMAY-Urban. Covid-19 has underscored the need for a well developed rental housing ecosystem in India. In fact, the lack of liveable affordable accommodation in cities was a key reason for millions of migrant workers to return to their hometowns during the lockdown. The new scheme will help unlock the existing vacant housing stock. The Model Tenancy Law, which is expected to be notified in 2021, will so give a fillip to the segment.
- In the near term, the impact of Covid-19 is expected to linger, especially in terms of less availability of construction labour as well as high cost of inputs such as steel and cement. Further, banks and lending institutions are still practising tighter lending norms, making credit availability a challenge for developers.
- With projects facing cost and time overruns, there is an urgent need to implement innovative technologies to ensure faster and cost-efficient completion of construction works. To this end, techniques such as pre fabricated, pre-engineered, precast and aluminium form works will see wider adoption in the post-Covid era.
- Going forward, more than 770,000 affordable homes worth less than 4.5 million each will be added in the top seven cities by the end of 2023. Considerable demand is also expected from Tier 2 and 3 cities as many people from the organised sector will stay back in their hometowns owing to the wider adoption of the work-from-anywhere model. Favourable announcements under Budget 2021 will further ensure that demand for affordable housing stays buoyant during 2021.
- The mission of this conference is to assess the impact of recent policy and regulatory reforms on the sector, examine the new and upcoming opportunities, and discuss the key issues and concerns. The conference will also showcase the latest technologies, innovations and noteworthy projects.
