IIFL HF handbook for affordable green housing launched

IIFL Home Finance recently launched a handbook for affordable green housing to provide consumers, builders and the construction ecosystem with a definitive framework for building green homes.

The handbook, conceived by IIFL and renowned architect Ashok Lall, was launched at a virtual event.

Speaking at the launch, SK Hota, MD, National Housing Bank, said, “The need of the hour is to take green buildings to residential housing and more particularly to the ones in affordable housing segment. It is a myth that green housing is only for the premium segment and is not viable for the affordable housing segment.”

Commenting on the book, author Lall said, “This is work in progress and this is making the right beginning towards sustainable affordable housing development in India.”

Monu Ratra, CEO, IIFL Home Finance, said, “This handbook is our contribution towards sustainable affordable housing in India.”
