Samir Jasuja, Founder & CEO, PropEquity said, “The Budget announcements will give a boost to housing demand in tier 2 cities and create opportunities for employment. These include proposals for development of airports, promotion of GCCs, tourism, relaxation on second homes, and more importantly tax exemption on income up to Rs 12 lakhs. The continued focus on infrastructure development like metro rail, highways and expressways will augment the growth in all segments of the real estate sector.”
“Sales value have risen by 20% even as sales have increased by only 4% in 2024 points to a rapid increase in price of homes in these cities owing to factors like rise in cost of raw materials, speculative investments etc. which may impact the real estate market.”
