He acknowledged that the Indian Economy is challenged and mentioned that the Indian economy is constrained because of a high fiscal deficit; its reliance on foreign inflows to finance the current account deficit; decreased savings and lower investment; a tight monetary policy to contain inflation and strong external headwinds. He assured that the budget spelled out measures for each of the above mentioned issues. The agenda for the Union Budget 2013-14 is set for ‘higher growth
leading to inclusive and sustainable development’. The finance minister projected the economy to grow by 4.8% in the next fiscal down from 5.5% in 2012-13.
The real estate sector had high hopes this year from the Budget. However, the budget remained silent on most of the major issues such as enactment of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Bill, revision of Land Bill, granting industry status to the sector or infrastructure status to the much ailing affordable housing sector etc. None the less, there are few small measure has been taken for the real estate industry in this budget.
1% TDS on value of the transfer of immovable properties where the consideration
exceeds INR 50 lakh; No TDS for agricultural land transfer;

Increase in excise duty rate on marble from INR 30 per sq. meter to INR 60 per sq.
meter;
Impact: Although the increase in excise duty rate on marble will affect the sector by increasing in the overall construction cost.
