Housing For All' to boost Indian economy: Report
31 Aug, 2015, 1656 hrs IST, Sachin Dave, ET Bureau
The report, however, went on to add that the success of this scheme would also depend on how the existing urban infrastructure is ramped up.
MUMBAI: Housing For All, the recent project by the Indian government is set to provide a much needed boost to theIndian economy, India Ratings and Research ( Ind-Ra) said in a report.
The report however went on to add that the success would also depend on how the existing urban infrastructure is ramped up. "The direct benefit of HFA to the economy is estimated to be Rs 15,000 crore in a seven-year timeframe (FY16-FY22). Funding of the investment of Rs 15,000 crore through public-private partnerships and ramping up the supply of raw materials for construction namely steel and cement are big challenges for the execution of the HFA scheme. Municipal services such as supplying piped water, sewerage, sanitation and municipal solid waste management are also far from being equipped to take on a project of this magnitude in the next seven years," the report added.
The scheme is set to provide about 2 crore houses in three phases from 2016 to 2022. There is a central government grant of about Rs 1,00,000 for slums and about Rs 1,50,000 for other households. "Central government will provide interest subvention to households at 6.5% for loans up to a 15-year tenor through two nodal agencies - Housing and Urban Development Corporation Limited ('IND AAA'/Stable) and National Housing Bank ('IND AAA'/Stable). The government will have to find more resources to finance this, so as to adhere to its fiscal deficit target," the report added.
According to the research report the demand for cement for the scheme alone to be closer to 2015 production levels. However, an increase in capacity for many manufacturers may lead to redundancy after the project gets over the report reiterated
