However, now people are constructing sustainable, concrete business and value creating industries around very good process managed real estate along with very good execution skills. These definitely are the ways one can be successful in this changing scenario of the real estate in India and with this the developers need to understand and cater to the demands to the buyers so that they do not hesitate in buying their dream home.

There will be financial protection for the home buyers whose projects do not complete on time. Any delay in the construction will provide benefits to the buyers. The buyers are allowed to claim for tax benefits of Rs 2 lakhs after possession if they invest in any under-construction building and it does not complete within 3 years. However, there will be a reduction of 30,000 if the builder delays the construction beyond the limit and thus they will have to pay higher interest.
