The Group of Ministers (GoM) on real estate has eliminated GST exemptions on private long-term land leases, a critical step. Tourism firms requesting exemptions are affected by this ruling. The meeting additionally discussed important subjects including housing society construction service taxation.

The Bombay High Court held that the state deserves a fair return on its land in a landmark decision. Justices B P Colabawalla and Somasekhar Sundaresan stressed that leasing rates need not be cheap if they fail to cover inflation, administration fees, and escalation.

The Bombay High Court heard a PIL asking the court to direct the Registrar of Cooperative Housing Societies to set rules for installing electric vehicle (EV) charging stations in co-op housing societies.  The court notified the parties and ordered a hearing on January 6, 2021.
