Union Budget 2014-15 Reactions: Sachin Agarwal, CMD, Maple Shelters

The budget has reduced the FDI norms for minimum built-up area for affordable housing. Additionally, Rs. 4000 crore have been allocated towards the creation of low-cost housing. This is extremely promising for the affordable housing sector and we will see an increase in housing development for the under-privileged in the peripheral areas of cities like Pune. The relief provided on individual income tax and interest on housing loans is very significant for the budget homes sector, since these measures have greatest pertinence to the more financially sensitive home buyers. I am happy with this budget, in which the Financial Minister has shown great foresight and set the path for economic revival.
