GOVERNMENT OF KERALA BUILDING STATISTICS 2017-18 HOUSING DIVISION DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMICS & STATISTICS THIRUVANANTHAPURAM 2021 Preface Over the last few decades, construction sector has become one of the key drivers of the economy of Kerala, in terms of both generation of income and creation of employment opportunities. This sector contributed nearly twelve per cent of the Gross State Domestic Product of Kerala in 2017-18. Since it being a basic need of human beings, providing safe and adequate housing facilities to the people is a cause of great concern for every welfare state. Various programmes, policies and initiatives are organized by the governments to meet this challenge. Investors in this sector, including individual builders, are keenly observing even minute changes in price, policies, laws, regulations etc. At the same time, ever-increasing density of concrete buildings is seen alarmingly by the environmentalists. In these circumstances, the statistics related to construction activities are of prime importance to Government, various stake holders, environmentalists and researchers alike. Along with the growth of construction sector, the need for reliable housing statistics has also increased considerably. The department has been collecting, compiling and publishing building statistics of both rural and urban areas of Kerala from 2015-16 onwards. Data pertaining to the number of newly constructed buildings, classification of newly constructed buildings on the basis of type of ownership and type of roofing, density of newly constructed buildings, comparison with the data of previous years etc. are included in this report. Data are available at panchayat or municipality level itself. The database will be a guideline factor based on which the housing policies of the state have to be evolved and its efficacy monitored. I congratulate field level officers of districts for their earnest effort in collecting the data pertaining to the field of Housing Statistics and the Labour & Housing Division of this office for their painstaking effort in compiling them.

The housing industry of India is one of the fastest growing sectors. Even after 73 years of independence, the country is still grappling with the growing shelter problem, especially of the poor. Adequate housing facility is a reflection of a nation’s economic prosperity and social well-being of its citizens. The Union and state government is responsible for formulation and implementation of social housing schemes. Housing highlights various initiatives and schemes implemented by government for rural, urban and EWS housing. In the context of formulation of Housing policy and programmes, the need for reliable Housing statistics has increased considerably. Building statistics help us to understand the present housing conditions and the impacts of the housing policies of the state and nation. The housing sector plays an important role in the socio-economic upliftment of a society and a crucial role in the economy of the country. As per the recommendations of National Statistical Commission (NSC) and direction from Government of Kerala, Department of Economics and Statistics has been collecting panchayat level building statistics (Rural sector) since 2001-2002. From 2015-2016 onwards department is collecting building statistics from all Local Bodies both rural and urban sector through district offices of Department of Economics & Statistics. 9 Department of Economics & Statistics Building Statistics 2017-18 Concepts and definitions The concepts and definitions of some of the important terms used in the report are given below. 1.
