REAL ESTATES FORUM

The NCR board is likely to hike the minimum floor area rates (circle
rates) for property transactions in and around the Capital by 20-30%.
The minimum rates are expected to make it easier for people to buy
houses by entitling them to bigger home loans, besides generating more
revenues for the government.

Housing price index soon
A nation-wide housing price index may be a reality soon. The National
Housing Bank, in collaboration with the National Council of Applied
Economic Research, is close to finalising the methodology to be
adopted for the index, named NHB Residex. The index will give a
realistic picture of housing price movement to policy-makers and
consumers in major cities of the country.
