The 2024 budget introduces significant reforms impacting various sectors, particularly commercial real estate, coworking spaces, and senior living. These changes are poised to reshape the landscape, presenting new opportunities and challenges. Let’s explore these insights and understand their implications.
Emphasis on Commercial Real Estate
Commercial real estate plays a crucial role in the economy, providing the infrastructure necessary for businesses to thrive. The 2024 budget underscores the importance of this sector, introducing measures aimed at boosting investment and development. Tax incentives, regulatory simplifications, and enhanced funding for infrastructure projects are some of the key initiatives designed to stimulate growth in commercial real estate.
Impact on Coworking Spaces
Coworking spaces have become an integral part of the modern work environment, offering flexible and cost-effective solutions for businesses and freelancers. The 2024 budget includes several reforms that are expected to further bolster this sector.

Transformations in Senior Living
The senior living sector is also set to benefit from the 2024 budget. Senior care services are taxed at an 18 percent GST rate. Interestingly, although services offered by residents’ welfare associations, which typically serve working individuals, are exempt from GST up to Rs 7,500 per month per unit (as per central government regulations), seniors reliant on pension or interest income do not benefit from similar concessions. With an aging population, the demand for quality senior living facilities is on the rise. The government’s reforms focus on improving the standards and availability of these facilities.

Expert Insights
According to industry experts, these reforms are expected to have a significant positive impact. As noted on Moneycontrol, “The budget’s focus on infrastructure and regulatory support is a game-changer for the coworking and senior living sectors. These changes will not only drive growth but also enhance the quality of services provided.”
“We recognize a significant opportunity in integrating coworking spaces with SEZs (special economic zones). This integration would create a mutually beneficial scenario, combining the agility and innovation focus of the coworking sector with the advantageous regulations of SEZs for businesses. This potent combination could attract both domestic and international companies, driving economic growth and developing dynamic business hubs in tier II cities,” said Sumit Lakhani, deputy CEO of Awfis Space Solutions, in the current budget 2024 discussions.
The 2024 budget brings forward substantial reforms that promise to reshape the coworking and senior living sectors. By providing tax incentives, regulatory support, and increased funding, the government aims to stimulate growth and improve the quality of services in these areas. As the landscape evolves, businesses and individuals alike can look forward to enhanced facilities and opportunities in coworking spaces and senior living communities.
