Abstract

The environmental effect of real estate projects is visible during their construction as well as operational phase. As the country debates the saga of Lavasa housing project, the booming real estate sector is gradually changing its urban landscape. Take the case of Gujarat, one of the most urbanised (42.6 per cent) states in the country as per the 2011 Census. The state has had a real estate boom since 2010 with an unprecedented increase in environmental clearances granted to real estate projects (See graph on p54).
