Haryana Will Continue To Handhold Real Estate Developers With Proactive Policies In Place: Capt. Abhimanyu At Naredco Global Investment Summit

June 1, 2018, Gurugram: Minister of Finance, Government of Haryana, Capt. Abhimanyu Singh on Friday announced that the government would continue to handhold real estate developers and builders for the all round housing development including creation of affordable housing for masses not only in the State but the entire NCR.

The government would continue to chase and bring in best of policy framework for its infrastructural development provided the builders and developers indulge in collaborative efforts since the public transport requires huge funds and the state exchequer is not very well equipped with such funds and therefore, industry ought to pay its dues to the government to enable it release funds for public utilities such as housing, affordable housing and other civic amenities.

Addressing NAREDCO Haryana’s Global Investment Summit a Session on “Haryana Realty-Developing an Inclusive and Sustainable Realty Market” of Global Investment Summit under ages of NAREDCO Haryana here today, Capt. Abhimanyu Singh pointed out that the government has already put in place an integrated licensing policy and many other such policies for building suitable infrastructure across the State particularly in Gurugram but blamed industry for yet to avail of the benefits of such policy measures.

“A case in point is that of Rs.1,000 crores revenues that the state incurred in the last couple of months from real estate developers and builders, the share of Gurugram stood at meager Rs.300 crores whereas the rest of Haryana’s contribution has been to an extent of Rs.700 crore although the government focus more on the development of Gurugram”, he said.

Without being specific, the Finance Minister of State has been forthcoming saying that the state government in the last few years gave so much institutional support to the state’s real estate builders and developers and in return got lesser in proportion and therefore, appealed to the industry to come forward and make their dues payment in the form of stamp duty and other to the respective departments in the state.
