It additionally highlights the key structural constraints and recommends strategic interventions to address them, supporting the transition from policy design to effective on-ground implementation.
India’s real estate sector continues to serve as one of the core drivers of the national economy, underpinned by sustained demand, deeper reforms and high‑growth segments. As the country’s second-largest employment-generating sector, real estate continues to attract significant investor interest, with institutional inflows exceeding USD10 billion in 2025. This trajectory positions the sector to reach USD5 trillion or more by 2047 and solidify its role as an essential pillar of the Viksit Bharat vision.
