The affordability index, although at a reasonable 40% (EMI/net monthly disposable income), has risen about 50% over the past two years, suggesting a price run-up faster than income growth. The affordability is also affected by mortgage rates, which has risen by 400bp during the same period. Lending institutions managed to limit the EMI increase to a certain extent by adjusting the loan tenure, thereby controlling the affordability as well. Currently, the domestic real estate market has an affordability levels (Property costs / Annual Income) of 4.5 to 5.0x compared to global level of 3.5x.
