Construction technology is constantly evolving, allowing for faster completion than in previous years. Adoption of technologies such as aluminium formwork are major steps in this direction. This is a versatile construction technology that involves recyclable and reusable materials and results in durable and highly sustainable buildings. By using the aluminium formwork, we are getting accurate dimensions and sizes as per the plans, which reduces the construction cycle time as compared to conventional formwork systems.

The struggling Real Estate sector and the home buyers trapped in Covid–19 worries, have been relieved a bit with the measures being taken by the government.

Now that government has allowed the functions of construction activities, it is now necessary to first focus on under-construction projects.

The focus of developers and the industry at large needs to be on project completion and timely delivery.
For the speedy recovery of the sector, which was already affected due to pandemic, we expect the government to implement a Real Estate stress fund. A policy to clear unsold inventory first and the most important better clarity on GST. There is great confusion among the taxpayers, as they are clueless about how much they are obliged to pay on purchase of homes. When there is better clarity, buyers will certainly leave the fence and come back to the market.
The industry aspires to see a win-win situation for the developers and homebuyers. With GST, stamp duty, income tax, and capital gains tax already a burden on homebuyers; an income tax rebate could be provided for new home buyers. A temporary suspension of GST or introduction of 1 per cent GST for under-construction properties would help reduce the transaction cost for the homebuyers and would boost the much-needed demand in the market. The focus of developers and the industry at large needs to be on project completion and timely delivery.

Consumers will prefer seeing properties online through virtual tours and may not visit the site physically. The industry is taking all possible measures to mitigate the impact of the pandemic on their businesses by ensuring favourable pricing, moderating sales targets, etc, and we hope for the continued support from the Government.
