Below Reaction on Post-Budget By Ashish Raheja, CEO & MD, Raheja Universal
“The Union Budget 2026 continues the government’s push towards infrastructure-led growth, with a strong capital expenditure commitment of ?12.2 lakh crore. What stands out for us is the focus on building well-planned cities beyond the metros. The creation of city economic regions, with ?50,000 crore allocated per region over five years, will significantly improve connectivity and urban infrastructure in Tier II and Tier III markets, opening up new opportunities across residential, commercial and mixed-use developments.
The proposed Infrastructure Risk Guarantee Fund is a practical step that can ease construction-phase risks and encourage greater private investment in large, long-gestation projects. We also see this as a positive signal for the commercial real estate market. The proposed tax holiday for Global Capability Centres (GCCs) is expected to generate demand for large-scale data centres and facilitate local employment.
Overall, these measures support the broader vision of Viksit Bharat by helping create more sustainable, liveable and future-ready cities for both developers and homebuyers.”
