Meanwhile, the National President of NAREDCO, G Hari Babu mentioned in the report, “With profound initiatives such as the Real Estate Regulation and Development Act (RERA), Goods and Services Tax (GST), and various housing schemes like Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY), the government has aimed to reshape the landscape of the real estate sector in India in the past ten years.”

Additionally, the Chairman of Anarock, Anuj Puri said that the housing prices have registered a significant demand that led to the growth across the top seven markets. It includes Delhi-NCR, MMR (Mumbai Metropolitan Region), Kolkata, Chennai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Pune.

According to the latest government data, around 1.23 lakh real estate projects have been registered, since RERA’s inception to date, and more than 1.21 lakh consumer grievances have been addressed so far.
