Size of real estate market to grow to $650 bn by 2040 from $120 bn now: Niti Aayog
Kumar said the recent Interim Budget has demonstrated that the government would take steps to make sure that the real estate sector grow and develop further so that this industry contributes even more to the economy. Reuters

Indian real estate market is expected to jump over fivefold to USD 650 billion by 2040 and its share in the country's gross domestic product (GDP) is set to double from the current seven per cent, Niti Aayog Vice-Chairman Rajiv Kumar said Friday. "The government is committed not only to real estate sector but all aspects of it. The government is very conscious and cognisant of what happening in the sector and how it contributes to the economy," he said while addressing a global luxury realty conclave organised by India Sotheby's International Realty.

Kumar said the recent Interim Budget has demonstrated that the government would take steps to make sure that the real estate sector grow and develop further so that this industry contributes even more to the economy. The Centre has offered a lot of tax incentives to developers building affordable houses and also tax sops to homebuyers looking to purchase second homes.

Highlighting the importance of this sector, the Niti Aayog vice-chairman said the real estate sector is contributing seven per cent to the country's GDP and its share is expected to double by 2040. The current size of the real estate market is already USD 120 billion dollar and this will grow to USD 650 billion by 2040, he said, adding that the industry employs 55 million people now and this number will rise to 66 million as it grows.

"This sector is heart of the economy. It has backward linkages with 200 other industries," Kumar said. He also said the real estate sector would contribute more with rapid urbanisation. Kumar said the two legislations -- the goods and services tax and the RERA -- implemented by the government would help in organised growth of this sector.

He asked real estate companies to blend best of Indian culture and best of global facility and technologies in their future development of properties. Speaking on the sidelines of the event, Embassy group President (Residential Business) Reeza Sebastian said there is a good demand for completed housing units in all categories including luxury homes.

Tata Housing Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer said the demand for luxury houses is slow and this has given an opportunity to better our product portfolio in terms of design and other services. Colliers International National Director Gagan Randev said: "Luxury real estate market has become much more discernible with a preference in most markets for gated communities offering a luxury lifestyle. Developers are differentiating their high end products and this has resulted in success of branded residence."
