A viral LinkedIn post exposes how India's middle class, despite dual incomes, cannot afford homes that their parents bought on single salaries, revealing deep structural problems in the country's housing market

MHADA has announced plans to construct 8 lakh homes in the next five years, prioritizing affordable and rental housing for mill workers, dabbawallas, and lower-income groups. The initiative aims to boost urban redevelopment and enhance housing accessibility across Maharashtra.

CIDCO has announced prices for 26,000 homes in Navi Mumbai, sparking mixed reactions. While affordable options start at ₹25 lakh in Taloja, premium rates in Kharghar and Vashi go up to ₹97 lakh, raising accessibility concerns.

The GST Council's GoM proposes increasing the affordable home price barrier from ₹45 lakh to ₹55 lakh. If authorised, this might help budget homebuyers by matching GST incentives with growing property prices and increasing housing accessibility throughout India.
