Large & listed developers commanding real estate market in India

Evaluation of the real estate brands has never been as challenging in India as it is now. After all, the large & listed real estate developers across the country are exhibiting identical patterns with their performance. Nearly all of them are witness to their best-ever fiscal topline as well as stock performance. The combined market share, fiscal performance and market cap of some 20-0dd listed real estate companies would be more than half the revenue of Indian real estate.

Is real estate really insulated against losses?

Call it influence peddling of the real estate stakeholders, or a thought-process that is culturally ingrained in the minds of the Indians, but the collective consciousness is made to believe that real estate investments are insulated against losses. Track2Realty questions the rationale. Real estate as an asset class has been oversold with the promise that you can never suffer losses with a physical asset, unlike stocks and mutual funds where an investor can suffer huge losses. To top it all, there is a general belief that real estate offers the best Return on Investment (ROI).

How Under Construction apartments cost you more than Ready to Move?

When I said it in one of the podcasts that it is better to buy a Ready to Move apartment as it is never a costly proposition, as perceived by the home buyers at large. Compared to Under Construction, a Ready to Move apartment is loaded with execution assurance, peace of mind, and almost no additional financial burden. Ever since that I was flooded with very many queries to elaborate on the same. The questions are being raised by not just the critics within the built environment of Indian real estate this time who love to hate my critical take on the sector. A number of concerned home buyers too asked me in the comment section of the podcast to delve deeper for their better understanding.

Why should you have real estate in an investment portfolio?

Whether one should have real estate in the portfolio of investments or not is an age-old debate. World over, it is as much a topic of discussion within the built environment of real estate as with personal finance. Arguments on both sides of the divide have their own merit, but the fact remains that there is no one size fits all answer. The personal finance pros believe that stock market & mutual funds reward are far greater in the range of 14-18% per annum. The real estate proponents, on the other hand, assert that real estate rewards are no less over a longer period of time, and it also saves the investors from the cyclic high market volatility. A Track2Realty report.

Stock market correction doesn’t make sense for property purchase

The recent correction of Indian stock market has reignited the age-old debate of real estate versus stock market. In the last few weeks I am asked at various forum, it’s rather bombardment of arguments, why I don’t accept the reality of property market being a safer bet with lesser volatility. A little bit of correction in stock market makes every stakeholders & influencers of property cite it as to how property is the safest asset class. All that I can say is that I am amused with the logic, or rather lack of it.

Can Union Budget 2025 fix larger real estate problems?

Can Union Budget 2025 fix the larger problems afflicting the business of Indian real estate? This question is more relevant than asking to what extent the Union Finance Minister will fulfill the wishes of the sector. This is because the real estate has largely been ignored, heavily taxed, and least considered in the budget of last few years. Irony is that for some strange reasons the stakeholders who have a large wish list on the eve of Union Budget every year, justify the sector being ignored in the post budget analysis.

Lengthy & costly litigation helps builders to define law as per their fancy

Despite several rulings defining the set principles of law, the builders continue to define law as per their fancy. After all they are fully conscious of the fact that the poor home buyers have limited resources to get into lengthy and costly litigation. The omissions by the lower courts more often than not emboldens these builders.  Ravi Sinha reports about another landmark ruling by the apex consumer court, NCDRC (National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission).
