I would like to ask the developer friends here when they say there is an ambiguity as far as ECB is concerned. Which are the funding routes that you find without ambiguity—whether it is private equity, QIP, IPO or any other route to raise money?
Gaurav Gupta: I would say there are multiple challenges for the sector.
Atul Modak: The perception that you are talking about is true. On that we had a meeting with the members of MCHI-CREDAI and the focus was this poor perception that builder is chor (thief), not interested to give possession and he will take away your money. But that is not the case as in majority of the cases developers’ intention is good. They want to deliver project on time, but because of delays in approvals, added to the funding gap and he has nowhere to go once he has launched the project.
Track2Realty-Agencies: A builder who failed to start a Greater Noida residential project on time has landed in trouble as a consumer court in New Delhi has directed him to pay compensation of Rs.3 lakh and refund the over Rs.49 lakh cost of a flat to a complainant.
Pranay Vakil: As a developer if someone wants to come and tell you Atul that instead of borrowing at 11.5 per cent or 12 per cent, whatever the rate lender gives you, you will get this money at 3 per cent, how do you react?
Ravi Sinha: But if we go by that yardstick, my question is that in the major real estate markets across India do we have that kind of projects where ECB would be viable?
Ravi Sinha: Even in the Indian context, if you look at the places like Gurgaon. Had there been no infrastructure no one would be living over there and that is how NCR has evolved as a case study in satellite towns. But the disconnect is with the funding.
Track2Realty-Agencies: The Union Cabinet today deferred considering a draft law to set up a regulator for the real estate sector with provisions for jail term for the developer for putting out misleading advertisements about projects.
Track2Realty: The newly elected leadership of realtors apex body CREDAI has embarked on a multi-pronged agenda to work closely with the various governments with focus on affordable housing, green buildings and water harvesting and skill development among construction workers.
Track2Realty-Agencies: While the promoters of realty firms in India are wary of selling stake and instead choosing institutional placement programme (IPP) over share auction to bring down holding to comply with regulatory norms, Bangalore-based Puravankara Projects has also plans to raise around Rs 450 through IPP route.
