Indian real estate has historically been very optimistic on the eve of every festive season. The post festive season sales number may not back the pre-festive bullishness, but the sector has been known to be hoping to make merry year after year. After all, real estate is a sentiment driven business and the stakeholders try best to create an ambience of positivity to bring the fence sitting buyers back to the market, often with festive discounts and freebies.
