Sobha bounces back as National Brand Leader yet again: BrandXReport 2021-22

In an interesting year when Godrej Properties lost its sheen, Sobha Limited yet again bounced back as the National Brand Leader after a gap of 2 years. The 10th edition of Track2Realty BrandXReport 2021-22 finds that the market perception vis-à-vis the brands could change dramatically, and it takes all the more care to retain the Brand Leadership than reaching at the top.

Issues beyond perception behind gender inequality in real estate

Gender equality, or rather lack of it, in the business of real estate is a reality that no one would deny. Real estate by all means is a man’s world in this part of the world. Barring a few exceptions, where the wives or daughters of the developer have been given spotlight, a typical real estate enterprise doesn’t have a sizeable presence of women workforce. A Track2Realty Pan-India Survey.

RERA Satisfaction Index pretty low across India

The home buyers have for long alleged that the RERA has failed to provide them substantial relief in the wake of project delay or defaults. Now the Allahabad High Court has also taken cognizance of the issue and has not only questioned reasons of non-execution but also asked for the roadmap as to how RERA Recovery Certificates would be executed.

Has real estate fallen into its own “All is Well” trap?

A TV debate after the Union Budget 2022-23 caught one of the IPCs (Independent Property Consultant) off guard when the anchor categorically blamed him for real estate not getting its due with the budget. In his defence he could only argue that it is not about one specific report but all the industry reports are guilty of creating such a goodwill for the sector. The satisfactory voices were so profound that the policy makers too found the business capable of self-sustaining without any fiscal incentives.

Union Budget 2022-23: Unanswered questions for real estate

The Union Budget 2022-23 lacked any fresh ideas as far as the real estate in general and the housing market in particular is concerned. Most of the announcements are more or less the extension of the old schemes and roadmaps. The euphoria of the industry stakeholders ahead of the budget turned into a deafening silence in the next few hours of budget speech.

Union Budget 2022 lacked fresh ideas; “U Turn” by realty players

Tracking the sentiment is not that easy in the business of Indian real estate. There is no ideal predictive model that could assess the sentiments of both the developers as well as the buyers. The leading voices of the sector has never been very consistent with their budget wish list and the post budget customary note. The most important stakeholders, the home buyers, are more often than not completely ignored when it comes to sentiment assessment post the Union Budget.

Will Supreme Court UP RERA judgment empower the regulator?

The real estate market of Uttar Pradesh in general and Noida-Greater Noida in particular is hotbed of consumer grievances, ranging from delay to default and unmet promises to builder’s high handedness. As per the industry estimate nearly 40% home buyers’ grievances in India are reported to be from this market alone. It is hence no surprise that even when the Real Estate Regulatory Authority proposes to clean the market, the builders devise their own ways & means to dispose it.

Can Budget 2022-23 address home buyers’ job insecurity issues?

The industry data of faster recovery and record home sales conceal more than it intends to reveal. The rosy outlook fails to address the fact that this is a K-shaped recovery where a handful of large developers with sound financials have grown at the cost of the large universe of the developers. More importantly, the sales registration data doesn’t differentiate between primary market sale and distress sale in the secondary market.

India property market sees high investors’ interest for alternative assets

Apart from data centers, there is likely to be more focus on greenfield assets in the industrial sector in 2022 led by strong demand from E-commerce companies. The Industrial and warehousing segment saw investments at a five-year high at USD1.1 billion. Green financing through green bonds will also see greater acceptance this year in India as developers, asset owners and investors turn their focus to sustainable development. This trend has further been accelerated by the pandemic across geographies.
