💨 Abstract

The Maharashtra government is planning to make precast construction mandatory for real estate firms in Mumbai to reduce air pollution. This policy will incentivize a shift from on-site construction to precast construction, as precast construction minimizes carbon emissions and waste, even if it increases transportation costs. The policy will be launched soon, and the state government is also finalizing a roadmap to control air pollution in Mumbai.
