Estimating Housing Shortage : Alternate Approaches
Alternate Approaches for Estimation
a. Shortage = Households minus Houses?
or just add houseless households
b. Fixed proportions
c. Demand and affordability based shortage
d. Regression equation based on HH and Houses
e. Normative approaches: Households living in unacceptable housing conditions

Components of Housing Shortage
Households residing in unacceptable conditions
Obsolescence Factor
• Non Serviceable Katcha (temporary) Houses
• All bad houses excluding those less than 40 years old
• 80 years old houses(Old structurally week)
Congestion Factor (Unacceptable as per social norms)
• Households with one or more married couples
sharing room with a person aged 12 years or more
Houselessness
Households living without any house(open, pavements)

Issues in Estimating the Shortage
a. Adding the different components (to include the difference between Households and houses as done for the Eleventh Plan)
b. Shortage in terms of Households needing houses not in terms of Housing Units
c. Combining Census and NSS data in making projections
