A two-day exhibition featuring 45 property developers from major cities of India is being held at Regency Halls on Friday and Saturday, at the initiative of The Times of India Group and Mindspace Events, an events management company.
The exhibition, The Times Realty India 2011, is being held in Doha for the second year running. “We received excellent response last year and we hope this year too it receives a similar response,” said M I Sait, CMD of Mindspace Events and Exhibitions.
Sait said they were considering to organise the show in Dubai as well as in Doha in October again. “At Dubai alone, developers vended properties worth more than Rs20bn last year; this year they are expecting higher volume in both Doha and Dubai,” he said.
The show is a opportunity to bring some of the top builders and developers at platform for “our regular clients in India and outside.” “Our aim is to bring builders and service providers from the Indian property industry face to face with customers who are planning to buy properties in back home,” he added.
Properties starting at QR100,000 to QR4mn would be on offer at the exhibition which also features a separate Kerala pavilion. “The decision to bring all Kerala property developers on one platform was taken owing to the enormous interest shown by Keralites living in this region to the show last year,” he said.
Nine developers from Kerala are exhibiting their properties at the Doha show. They are from Kochi, Thrissur, and Guruvayoor. Others attending the show are mainly drawn from Delhi, Gurgaon, Mumbai, Chennai, Pune, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Coimbatore, Mangalore, Goa and Ooty.
Close to 1,000 properties will be on display at the event. The show will be held from 10am to 9pm on both days, with a one-hour break for prayers on Friday at noon. The exhibitors will include leading organisations from the industry and leading builders, flat promoters, layout promoters, housing finance companies, resorts and clubs, interior designers, house builders and real estate agents.
