Affordable housing sales in India saw a 17% drop in 2025, with new project launches declining by 28%, as developers increasingly focus on luxury segments. Experts suggest subdued demand and low supply will persist into the next year, attributing this to insufficient interest rate cuts and minimal developer incentives. Despite some GST and rate reductions, the impact on affordable housing has been limited, with sales share expected to hover around 18-19% of total housing sales.
