CREDAI MCHI Welcomes Maharashtra Budget for Real Estate Growth
Maharashtra’s latest budget has delivered a significant boost to the real estate sector, underpinned by strategic investments in infrastructure, housing, and urban development. With a dedicated outlay for connectivity projects, industrial expansion, and affordable housing, the fiscal plan aims to accelerate economic progress while reinforcing the property market’s stability.
A key highlight of the budget is the Rs 15,000 crore investment in rural corridors, a move expected to enhance connectivity and stimulate real estate expansion in emerging markets. Additionally, the proposed Vadhvan Port in Palghar, slated for completion by 2030, is set to drive economic activity, spurring demand for residential and commercial properties in the region. The state government’s continued emphasis on transit-oriented development, including metro expansions and multi-modal corridors, will strengthen urban infrastructure, easing congestion and unlocking new land parcels for real estate projects.
Furthermore, the announcement of a third airport to serve Mumbai is poised to enhance the region’s logistical capabilities, further boosting demand for residential and commercial spaces. The allocation of Rs 8,100 crore towards urban housing reaffirms the government’s commitment to the ‘Housing for All’ mission, ensuring the availability of affordable homes across the state. Coupled with incentives for industrial development under the ‘Make in Maharashtra’ initiative and projected investments of Rs 40 lakh crore over five years, the policy framework is expected to generate heightened demand for both residential and commercial real estate.
A balanced approach towards fiscal responsibility and capital investment has instilled confidence in industry stakeholders. By streamlining policies and ensuring timely project execution, Maharashtra continues to cement its position as a key driver of India’s infrastructure-led growth, with the real estate sector poised to reap long-term benefits.
