• The affordable housing segment has been among the front-runners in the real estate sector. To further accelerate growth in the segment, the Union Budget 2022-23 has proposed an allocation of Rs 480 billion under the government’s Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) to complete around 8 million houses.
• While the PMAY scheme continues to be the biggest growth driver for the segment, the central and state governments have taken crucial and timely measures to address supply-side constraints and revive market demand post the Covid-19 pandemic. One of these has been the setting up of the SWAMIH Fund to help in funding delayed projects in the affordable segment. Other measures such as tax reliefs, extension of RERA deadlines and revision of circle rates have also helped developers revive the supply momentum.
• Meanwhile, on the demand side, the unprecedented cut in repo rates has brought down home loan interests to sub-7 per cent levels. Besides, initiatives such as a supportive home loan structure, reduction in stamp duties and extension of the credit-linked subsidy scheme have accelerated the housing demand.
• In a noteworthy move, the government has launched the Affordable Rental Housing Complex (ARHC) scheme as a sub-component of PMAY-Urban under the Atmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyan. The scheme has created a sustainable ecosystem of affordable rental housing solutions to achieve the overall objective of Housing for All, encompassing the need for affordable rental housing.
• With regard to the participation of private developers, since the high-margin premium segment of affordable housing has been growing at a sluggish pace in recent years, developers are turning to affordable housing in a big way. In the past three to four years, several incentives, subsidies, tax benefits and, most importantly, institutional funding have been extended to private developers to spur growth in the affordable housing segment.
• Policies such as PPPs for affordable housing and land pooling have further boosted developer confidence in the space. Given that the affordable housing segment was the fastest to recover from the first wave of Covid-19 in 2020, more developers are keen on making inroads into this segment.
• That said, 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. Techniques such as pre-fabricated, pre-engineered, precast and aluminium form works will see wider adoption in the post-Covid era. Apart from this, banks and lending institutions are still practising tighter lending norms, making credit availability a challenge for developers.
• Overall, with affordable housing driving over half of the demand in the real estate sector during 2021, the segment is all set to offer investment opportunities of around Rs 45 trillion in the next four to five years. This is set to open up a range of opportunities for developers, material and equipment suppliers, innovative and sustainable construction technology providers, housing finance companies and private funds.
• The mission of this conference is to understand the impact of recent policy and regulatory reforms on the sector, examine new and upcoming opportunities, and discuss the key issues and concerns. The conference will also showcase the latest technologies, innovations and noteworthy projects.
