Apart from bigger houses, government subsidies will also be flow a bit more liberaly. 

The citizens falling under LIG group have an income that is between Rs 3 lakh to Rs 6 lakh. With the increase in carpet size, one can expect bigger homes after Budget 2019. 

Further, the government may announce Rs 8 lakh subsidy for home loans from previous Rs 6 lakh.  With the increase in subsidy, the home buyers can avail up to Rs 6.5% interest relief.
