With a fast population shift from rural to urban areas, home buyers look for a property which is economical, affordable and within the reach of their pockets.

Apart from the announcement of Rs 70,000 crore, the Finance Minister has also addressed issues in the 2-critical sectors that are facing distress i.e. exports and the real estate sector.

A Rs 20,000 crore fund for the real estate sector with half of the money coming from the government. It will be established to give last-phase funding for housing projects that are not in bankruptcy court or already earmarked as bad debt.

FM Nirmala Sitharaman

It will directly benefit Govt servants. Government servants contribute to a major segment of demand for houses. To encourage more government servants to buy new houses, the FM announced the reducing of House Building Advance which will now be combined to the 10-year G-sec yield.

The stressed asset fund, which is to be used to give Rs 10,000 funding to affordable housing projects, will serve and benefit almost 3.5 lakh homebuyers. This aid will benefit buyers stuck in bankruptcy-bound projects will get assistance through the NCLT route.

New Steps That Will Boost Housing Industry

  • Relaxation of ECB guidelines for Affordable Housing
  • ECB guidelines will be relaxed to facilitate the financing of home buyers who are eligible for Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) in consultation with Reserve Bank of India (RBI).
  • This is an addition to the existing norms for External Commercial Borrowing (ECB).

House Building Advance

  • The interest rate on House Building Advance shall be reduced and linked with the 10-years G Sec Yields.
  • Government servants contribute to a major component of demand for houses. This will encourage more government servants to buy new houses.

Special Window for affordable and middle-income housing categories

  • A special window to provide last mile funding for housing projects which are non-NPA and non-NCLT projects and are net worth positive in the affordable housing and middle-income category to be set up.
  • The objective is to focus on the construction of unfinished units.
  • Govt of India on the lines of NIIF can contribute to the fund while the rest of investors would be LIC, Banks and sovereign funds.
  • The fund shall be set-up as a Category-II AIF Trust and would be professionally run with experts from the Housing and Banking Sector.
  • Fund Size – Rs 10,000 crore to be contributed by the Government of India and the roughly same amount from overseas investors.

For exporters, a new scheme for repayment of taxes paid on exports called the Remission of Duties or Taxes on Export Product (RoDTEP), will come into effect from January 2020 to replace current laws. The new RoDTEP scheme will more than enough to encourage exporters than existing schemes bring together. Moreover, a Rs 1,700 crore yearly dispensation will provide Export Credit Guarantee Corp (ECGC) to grant higher insurance cover to banks lending working capital for exports. This will allow a decrease in the overall cost of export credit including interest rate, especially for MSMEs.

Exports have also declined in the last two months in spite of a weaker rupee, while 2016 demonetization of 86% of the currency in circulation and introduction of Goods and Service Tax (GST) had sunken the realty market.

Ghaziabad Civic Body Slashes Flat costs over 50% in Madhuban Bapudham

Good news for you if you are planning to buy a house in Ghaziabad. Now you can buy EWS and LIG Flats of Madhuban Bapudham Yojana at 55% lower price. Ghaziabad Development Authority (GDA) is launching a one-month long online scheme on August 5. The applicants whose name will be selected will get EWS for 4.5 lakh and LIG flat in 10.80 lakhs.

Ghaziabad Development Authority (GDA) has housing units in Indirapuram, Swarnjayantipuram, Vaishali, Nandgram, Indraprasth, and Madhuban Bapudham. The reason behind issuing of the scheme is to attract home buyers for some time now as GDA’s properties have failed to attract buyers in the past.

To attract home buyers for its properties, the Ghaziabad Development Authority had planned to framework a Madhuban-Bapudham housing scheme in 2004 after getting 1234 acres of land. Later, in many pockets, EWS and LIG have been built. Out of this, 466 EWS and LIG have not been sold yet. Now the Ghaziabad Development Authority slashed the flat rate following a state government’s order.

An EWS flat that was previously priced nearly Rs.10 lakh will now be available for Rs.4.5 lakh. Similarly, the price of a LIG flat has been decreased from Rs 23 lakh to Rs.10.8 lakh.

As per the GDA official data, there are 296 EWS and 170 LIG flats in Madhuban Bapudham. Those whose annual income up to Rs 3 lakh can apply for an EWS flat; for LIG flats, the limit is Rs 6 lakh per annum. The scheme will be opened to the public for a month from August 5 2019.

At the same time, the authority was selling them according to the cost experienced in making them. Earlier, the state government has instructed the EWS and LIG buildings to be sold according to the mandate.

It is really a big step to provide affordable houses to its residents at such a lower price. Besides, the selected applicants will have to pay just 10% initially and the rest of the balance amount can be paid in instalments in a given time period.  GDA officials say that the first price was double, but now the price has been cut.
