Abstract: Construction projects in India are facing delays. It is essential to create a clear understanding among experts in the field and conduct an in-depth analysis of the causes of delays, as the volume and capacity of the Indian construction sector have undergone significant changes over the past decade. Construction delays have a substantial impact on the budgets, schedules, and stakeholder satisfaction of residential projects. Construction delays are an essential issue in the residential construction industry, as they increase costs, cause time delays, and compromise quality. It is crucial to identify the primary causes of these delays to mitigate their impact on project performance. This research study aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the factors that contribute to construction delays in residential projects. This study synthesises previous literature and research findings to investigate several factors, their interactions, and their impact on project delays. To correctly manage and reduce construction delays in residential construction projects, the review emphasises the importance of recognising these aspects.
