Construction of Bungalow. Real Estate and Infrastructure Industry
Bungalow is a one-story house, cottage or cabin. Bungalows are generally small in terms of square footage, but it is not uncommon to see very large bungalows. Bungalows were originally designed to provide affordable, modern housing for the working class.
Bungalows are most often one-story houses, although they often also include an additional half story, usually with a sloped roof. There are various types of bungalows, including raised bungalows that have basements partially above ground to let in additional sunlight. There are also some that branch away from the original definition by adding additional levels such as lofts and half levels. Common features of the bungalow include a dormer window and a veranda.
The real estate sector is one of the most globally recognized sectors. Real estate sector comprises four sub sectors – housing, retail, hospitality, and commercial. The growth of this sector is well complemented by the growth of the corporate environment and the demand for office space as well as urban and semi-urban accommodations. The construction industry ranks third among the 14 major sectors in terms of direct, indirect and induced effects in all sectors of the economy.

Retail, hospitality and commercial real estate are also growing significantly, providing the much-needed infrastructure for India’s growing needs.
The construction of commercial houses, residential housing, and business spaces, such as hotels, restaurants, theaters, and industrial buildings, namely factories and government buildings, are all covered by the real estate sector. Real estate also involves activities such as the purchase, sale, and development of land. Thus the real estate activities encompass both construction and housing sectors.
The unprecedented growth in the Indian industrial real estate sector is fuelled by two important forces. First, the fast expansion of the Indian industrial sector has created a large demand for manufacturing and office buildings. Second, the liberalization policies of the government of India have simplified the investment process by reducing the need for permissions and licenses for starting any large construction project.
