In 2023, the consultant said that affordability levels are likely to marginally worsen or remain the same when compared to 2022

Home prices across the top six cities are set to jump 6-10 per cent this fiscal and 3-5 per cent in the next financial year because of a steep rise in raw material, labour and land costs, and relatively favourable demand-supply dynamics, a report said on Thursday.
