Niranjan Hiranandani on Maharashtra's housing policy, its focus areas, and how it is a catalytic, visionary blueprint for inclusive urban transformation
Maharashtra's recently unveiled state housing policy is a commendable initiative aimed at addressing the pressing need for affordable housing in urban areas. This policy is a strategic move that aligns with the state's aspiration to be India's leading economic force. It focuses on rental housing for working women, students, and industrial workers, contributing to both economic growth and social welfare.
Benefits of the Housing Policy
One of the standout features of this policy is the walk-to-work model. This model promotes the development of rental housing near employment hubs, supported by efficient multi-modal infrastructure and last-mile connectivity. By reducing commuting stress, it enhances productivity while boosting demand in industrial and commercial real estate sectors. Over time, this will drive the need for residential projects like townships and cluster developments, fostering integrated urban growth.

DECODING THE CAPITAL MARKETS
AS WE STEP INTO 2026, the moment seems opportune to pause, reflect and take stock of one of the most animated corners of India's capital markets - the initial public offering (IPO) space. In this issue, we examine the forces shaping the primary markets, the lessons investors are learning the hard way and the questions that will determine how capital is raised. By any measure, 2025 was a blockbuster year for India's primary markets. More than 100 IPOs hit the bourses, together raising over Rs 1.7 lakh crore. From marquee, brand-led mainboard issues to a surge in SME listings, the pipeline barely paused. Strong domestic liquidity, record retail participation and a steady mutual fund bid ensured that most offerings sail through the subscription phase, often with eye-catching demand multiples. On the surface, it appeared to be a golden period for entrepreneurship and raising capital.

Al Ambition to Accountable Execution
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY'S (IT'S) 2026 inflection point in India will be less about chasing Artificial Intelligence (AI) hype and more about proving industrial-scale execution. The conversation has clearly moved beyond pilots to production, forcing companies to confront uncomfortable truths around cost discipline, governance and talent depth. Outcome-based pricing, platformised delivery and deeper hyperscaler partnerships point to a maturing services model, but they also raise the stakes. Vendors can no longer hide behind effort metrics when value is under scrutiny.
