“I congratulate the Finance Minister on a positive union budget. With various announcements for the realty sector regarding development of smart cities and industrial towns, the budget will boost the growth of the sector. REITs will ensure easy flow of FDI and raising funds for developers. Special announcement for SEZ and tax rebate on housing loans will increase investments. I hope that the economy on the whole gets a positive boost post this budget which will in turn will aid the housing sector by escalating demand for quality housing.”
