Experts emphasized the crucial role of RERA in fostering trust and highlighted emerging opportunities in commercial spaces and data centers. Addressing a skilled workforce shortage and promoting faster construction methods were also key discussion points for future growth.

Speaking at the NAREDCO Real Estate Conclave, Niranjan Hiranandani, Chairman of Hiranandani Group, stressed the need for stronger government-industry collaboration, better urban master planning, and large-scale skill development. He highlighted that India is already short of 2 million skilled construction workers, a gap that could widen to 5 million in the next four years. Hiranandani called for continuous learning among developers, greater adoption of innovation and technology, and accelerated self-reliance in manufacturing.
