In the medium term, it should go beyond 8%. I am happy with the first quarter (Apr.-Jun., 2005-06) growth, but we are still second (to China in GDP). We must strive to become the first.” The Hindustan Times, New Delhi, 01-10-05 P. Chidambaram Hon’ble Finance Minister Government of India

  16. Industrialist View on Housing and a Visionary Let me conclude the presentation with – “We need to overhaul our land related laws, taxation and information system. It is estimated that 90% of land in India are subject to legal disputes over the ownership. Stamp duty ranges between 8-15% of the property value, encouraging avoidance. On the other hand, property tax rates are low and collection is inefficient. All this has led to Indian lend prices being the highest among the Asian nations related to average incomes and low tax collections is hampering our ability to maintain urban infrastructure. Effective land reforms can really boost housing and retail sectors, two of the largest sectors of the economy outside of agriculture and generate huge employment opportunities.” Azim Premji Chairman, Wipro JRD Tata Memorial Lecture, The Economic Times, 31-08-05
