Housing Sector - Macro viewMajor contributor of the total turnover of the Indian real estate sectorLow Penetration: Housing to GDP ratio is approx. 5-6% (significantly lower than the levels achieved in most of the advanced as well as emerging economies )As per the NHB report on Urban Housing shortage in India (2012-17), India needs 18.8 million housing units in the cities alone,most of whobelong to EconomicallyWeaker Section (EWS)/ Lower Income Group (LIG)categories.People who belong to the these sections have no access to formal housing finance.Housing Demand to Grow….The Government has announced ‘housing for all by 2022’ as one of its headline missions. Another key area of focus for the government is increasing the number of business hubs in the country - ambitiously termed the ‘100 smart cities plan’. Both of these represent tremendous opportunities for the sector.The easing of interest rates would both increase buyer affordability, spurring demand, and also strengthen the financial performance of real estate companies…With increased emphasis on Affordable HousingAround 95 per cent of urban housing shortage mainly exists in EWS & LIG and around 90 per cent of rural housing shortage primarily exists in lower income and marginalised groups. Hence, demand for affordable housing will continue to increase in India for the coming years
