Meanwhile, Bengaluru leads premium home sales in the 2-5 crore range, reflecting growing demand for high-value properties. Additionally, a GST reduction to zero on life insurance premiums aimed to boost coverage affordability, yet life insurance penetration remains low, prompting families to reassess their financial protection needs amid evolving responsibilities.
