Housing

Rapid urbanisation has intensified the demand for urban land, leading to soaring land prices that marginalise the urban poor and economically weaker sections, often pushing them to the city fringes. Even middle-income groups increasingly depend on financial support to afford housing within urban centers. iDeCK collaborates with state authorities to address these challenges, focusing on affordable housing solutions. Our services include transaction advisory, PPP project structuring, drafting regulations and amendments, and assessing state policies. Additionally, we provide project management consultancy to bridge the housing infrastructure gap, enabling inclusive development and fostering private sector participation in affordable housing projects
