Real Estate Construction Costs in India Surge by 11%

Date:

Construction costs for real estate projects in India have risen sharply by 11% in the past year, driven by a combination of factors, including rising prices of key building materials, labor shortages, and supply chain disruptions. This significant increase is impacting both residential and commercial real estate developers, who are facing higher expenses for ongoing and upcoming projects.

The surge in costs is largely attributed to the rising prices of cement, steel, and other raw materials, which have seen price hikes due to global supply chain constraints and inflationary pressures. Additionally, labor costs have also escalated, with demand outstripping supply in several regions, further straining project budgets.

Industry experts warn that the higher construction costs could lead to an increase in property prices, especially in urban markets, where demand for real estate continues to remain strong. This could also delay project timelines, as developers grapple with escalating expenses and tighter margins.

Despite these challenges, the real estate sector remains resilient, with demand for both housing and commercial spaces continuing to grow, particularly in major cities and emerging urban centers. However, the rising construction costs are expected to have a ripple effect on the overall market, influencing homebuyers, investors, and developers alike.
