Women today control $28 trillion in annual consumer spending, as per a study. In terms of consumer spending, women today drive almost 80% of all purchases. In terms of home buying, 74% women play the role of either contributor or influencer, as per a pan-India survey by Track2Realty, the real estate think-tank group. This includes 32% home buying by single women across the eight top cities of India.
The report says India’s financial capital Mumbai is the richest city in the country followed by Delhi and Bengaluru in the second and third place respectively. The city is home to 46,000 millionaires and 28 billionaires with a total wealth of USD 820 billion.
Green floor space accounts for only 3-5 per cent of all construction in India so far. In developed markets like the UK, where green building began almost two decades ago, around 40 per cent of all buildings would fall in that category. In the US, it would be around 30 per cent.
