Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 25: "CREDAI-MCHI congratulates the government
on its third term and anticipates more financial measures to strengthen the economy
under the current administration.
Mumbai, as a vital economic engine, must focus on comprehensive city development,
including infrastructure improvements and future growth planning.
Given that over 50 per cent of real estate projects in Mumbai are redevelopment
projects, the government should consider levying no GST on redevelopment projects.
This step would ensure safer, better, and more affordable housing for the citizens of
Mumbai.
To address the validated demand for 11.2 million houses, redefining affordable housing
for metro cities like Mumbai is critical. A uniform affordable housing criterion for both
metro and non-metro cities, without a price cap, should be established, with all houses
of 60 sq m declared as affordable housing. Additionally, increasing tax exemptions on
home loans and making the interest component on home loans tax-free under the
relevant sections of the IT Act are crucial steps to make housing more accessible.
We hope that the government formulates financial policies in a democratic manner,
ensuring that the diverse needs of all stakeholders are addressed."
