Abstract
India’s Urban Population has grown over the past 3-4 decades from 109 million in 1971 to 377 million in 2011 and is expected to grow to almost 600 million by 2030. This influx of population is causing an increased demand for affordable housing in urban areas. There are numerous parameters that need to be considered for selection of these technologies to make the project economically viable which is the utmost priority for Affordable Housing. Accounting to the post occupancy affordability of housing, sustainability must be incorporated to help reduce the overall life cycle costing of the building simultaneously ensuring a comfortable and affordable living for LIG and EWS. The framework was developed using the method of “Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS)”, which helps identify the best ACT for a particular project by analyzing its closeness to the Ideal Solution. The attempt is to make the decision making of technology selection efficient considering the possible risk and for ensuring that the project meets the criteria of affordability in the truest sense.
