Will States going to polls reduce Stamp Duty on property?

When the Union Finance Minister, Nirmala Sitharaman, urged the States to cut Stamp Duty rates in her 2024-25 budget presentation, this was by & large seen as a mere headline making statement. Why would States cut the Stamp Duty on property when it is one of the major sources of revenue, was the general feeling in the collective consciousness. But now sources tell Track2Realty that there had been a message of deep meaning to the States going to polls.

Why is Indian real estate applauding Union Budget 2024-25?

Understanding the mindset of Indian real estate has never been easy. The built environment of the Indian real estate could argue and demolish the best of consumer-centric reforms. Remember the way industry body CREDAI had called RERA prior to its inception, and that too in front of the then Union Minister Kamal Nath, builder harassment and public amusement bill.  But at the same time they celebrate the self-inflicted injury on many occasions. Track2Realty finds the overtones of the sector all the more contradictory with the Union Budget, before and after the budget.

Why has real estate taken U-Turn with LTCG Tax rollback?

Immediately after the Union Budget 023-24, when Track2Realty had taken a principled position that it is going to hurt the Indian home buyers, many critics & self-proclaimed financial experts had questioned us. They were celebrating LTCG without Indexation and now very same set of people are again glorifying the dual option- with or without Indexation for deals before the Union Budget. How could one argue for both and against the motion? It is like batting for both teams in a game of cricket. Isn’t it?

USD 2.5 billion institutional investment in Indian real estate touches a 3-year high in Q2, 2024

In contrast, with USD 0.3 billion of investments in office assets, the segment witnessed subdued activity in Q2 2024. Although the annual decline was significant at 83%, the QoQ drop was relatively modest at 41%. The surge in industrial & warehousing, and residential investments resulted in a healthy investment volume of USD 3.5 billion for H1 2024 at an overall level, making up for the slow start in first quarter. Foreign investments remained robust, accounting for 81% of the total inflows in Q2 2024, predominantly led by investors from the US and UAE.

Real estate has toxic positivity problem worldwide

A recent report claims current sentiment index score of Indian real estate is 72. I wonder how! Who is going to believe this? Definitely not the home buyers at the receiving end of the builders with delay, default, unmet promises and what not. But this is not an isolated instance of one-odd such report. As a matter of fact, most of the reports by the brokerage firms (in the guise of consulting firms) and other industry stakeholders would like the home buyers to believe that if you don’t buy property now, you would be left behind. This unnecessarily creates a FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) in the minds of the gullible buyers.

How do you assess the true value of your house?

The market price of property in India is not always in sync with its intrinsic value. The home buying experience of Rajesh Kalra, a professional in Mohali, soured at the time of possession. He had negotiated with the builder and till that point of time believed that with his negotiation skills he made a good bargain for the same. But once in the house he got to know through the neighbour next door that the other person bought at around INR 4 lakh lesser price.
