RERA project deadline to bring relief to developers, relaxation to house buyers interests


Although MSMEs, NBFCs and HFCs were the main focus of the Finance Minister's address, the real estate sector also received a major boost from the announcements made by Nirmala Sitharaman on Wednesday. Giving a major relief to real estate developers, FM extended the timeline for completion and registration of the project by 6 months.

The move will help the developers immensely as construction activity is grinding across the country. The wait for house buyers gets a bit long, but it was inevitable.

In addition, the announcement of Rs 30,000crore special liquidity plan for NBFCs / HFCs and MFIs will ease the liquidity misery of stressed stakeholders. This would greatly benefit the real estate sector, given that NBFCs and HFCs are its main lenders.
