But with the passage of time, things are coming back on track and partial credit for it goes to the effort taken by the Government. Here, we have to understand one thing: every good thing is difficult to adapt to at first but has a beneficial long-term impact.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Demonetisation, too, slowed things down at first, but it has great advantages that will revive the economy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The year 2025 is being considered a great year for home buying. We have listed a few reasons in support. All these are government schemes that a prospective home buyer can take advantage of \u2013<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Real Estate Regulatory Act<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/rera.rajasthan.gov.in\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">RERA<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> will help regulate and bring transparency to the real estate sector. Also, it is beneficial both for the developers and buyers. A lot of clarity, in the sense of working and procedures, will come with its initiation. With RERA now an integral part of the real estate picture, it will reassure buyers&#8217; confidence in the market.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This will lead to improved sales figures in the market.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The timely completion of projects will be ensured.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The carpet area must be mentioned.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mandatory provision of information like land title and approval layout will be required.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pradhan Mantri Credit Link Subsidy Scheme<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Effective for 1st Jan 2017 thes aid scheme offers an interest subsidy of INR 2.3 2.5 lac to the buyers who intend to buy a house ranging up to 110 sq.mtr. The condition here is that neither the beneficiary nor any of his family members should have a Pakka house under their name.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Income Tax Exemption for Buyers<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Under Section 24(b) buyers are eligible for income tax exemption. Interest on home loan increased from INR 1,50,000 to INR 2,00,000 for 5 years instead of 3 years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Under Section 80C tax exemption is applicable on principal amount with limit INR 1,50,000 with other exceptions like Bank FD\u2019s, LIC Premium, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Service Tax<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For projects developed under Prime Minister Awas Yojana home buyers are now not required to pay any service tax.

EPF members can now withdraw 90% of the amount to make payments for the new home.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Conclusion<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Government schemes like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.trimurty.com\/blog\/rajasthan-real-estate-reras-role-for-buyers-and-investors\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">RERA<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, tax exemptions, and home loan subsidies make home buying more accessible and secure.
