Boosted by rising incomes and scarce land, prices of houses in metropolitan cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, and Bangalore are currently increasing at 30-40% per year. NHB (National Housing Bank) has estimated the overall housing shortage to be at 31.1 Million Units, specifically in Rural India.
 
Property funds have now assets of about US$ 4.7 Billion following an economic expansion period, historically low interest rates and tax breaks. India’s retail property market was around US$ 292 Billion in 2004, as per ICICI Bank Ltd- the 2nd largest lender of the country, and is likely to reach US$ 463 Billion by the year 2010. NHB also plans to introduce reverse mortgages by 2006. This’ll enable retired people to get a regular income for 15 years.
