For instance, Q4 2015 saw 70,000 homes sold in the seven major cities. However, as tempting as it was for developers to believe that this was an unshakeable performance standard, it was certainly shaken just a year later. After demonetization (DeMo) was announced in this critical quarter in 2016, housing sales halved to 32,100 units.

Project-level consolidation on the rise

A natural by-product of this upheaval was consolidation, with fly-by-night developers completely vanishing and small players merging with big ones.
