Abstract: The recent trend in Real Estate in most Indian cities is that builders/ developers are constructing tall buildings. However many people are unwilling to stay in tall buildings due to the lack of confidence in evacuation in case of fire and earthquake. Some people are willing to stay in tall buildings as the view is much larger and noise pollution and smoke pollution from vehicles reduces as you go up and people feel that they are at the top of the world. These people also consider the probability of occurrence of fire and earthquake as very low. Also, those who want to stay in tall buildings do so as they prefer to stay in an iconic building.
Key Words:Consumer perception, Earthquake, Tall Buildings.
