Realty stakeholders hail Union Budget despite unmet expectations

The Union Budget 2023-24 has by and large ignored the long standing and some immediate concerns (even needs than wants) of the Indian real estate sector. The Finance Minister has not only ignored the supply side of the business, but also didn’t bother to address the demand side, that is the home buyers. Ironically, the leading voices of the sector are still happy with some of the intangible gains even though tangible benefits are non-existent.

Will Adani Realty carry the baggage of tainted DB Realty?

The reports of Adani Realty merger with DB Realty has taken market analysts by surprise. According to the sources close to the developments, this is Adani’s bid to get into listed realty companies’ portfolio. However, the larger question that only Adani Realty can answer is that to what extent would the giant carry over the baggage of the tainted DB Realty. The memories of Godrej Properties announcement to join hands and getting market backlash of shareholders are still fresh in public memory. A Track2Realty analysis.

Emerging demand drivers of commercial real estate

Real estate in general and its future growth in particular is defined by its demand drivers. It is relatively easier to forecast the demand drivers in the residential sector. Reason being that the economic activities indicate the migration of the workforce and hence inherent need for housing. However, to forecast the emerging economic activity, both sector wise and region wise, is more often than not guesstimate, finds Track2Realty.

Has real estate fallen into its own “All is Well” trap?

A TV debate after the Union Budget 2022-23 caught one of the IPCs (Independent Property Consultant) off guard when the anchor categorically blamed him for real estate not getting its due with the budget. In his defence he could only argue that it is not about one specific report but all the industry reports are guilty of creating such a goodwill for the sector. The satisfactory voices were so profound that the policy makers too found the business capable of self-sustaining without any fiscal incentives.

Union Budget 2022 lacked fresh ideas; “U Turn” by realty players

Tracking the sentiment is not that easy in the business of Indian real estate. There is no ideal predictive model that could assess the sentiments of both the developers as well as the buyers. The leading voices of the sector has never been very consistent with their budget wish list and the post budget customary note. The most important stakeholders, the home buyers, are more often than not completely ignored when it comes to sentiment assessment post the Union Budget.

Evergrande and the unlearnt lessons of Indian real estate

Within the built environment of the Indian real estate there is still denial about too many parallels between the Indian and the Chinese real estate. Many even believe that the Indian economy is not that real estate dependent as the Chinese economy. Even when admitting the crisis in Indian real estate, it is diplomatically wrapped in the developer’s justification of not learning any lessons on part of the Indian developers.

2022 to be year of top realty brands at the cost of smaller developers

2021 was expected to be the year of recovery for the Indian real estate that weathered the black swan of Covid in the preceding year.  Throughout the year the developers put up a brave face and the industry data of the top listed developers was enough to keep the prophets of doomsday in silence. However, the closer look at the sector and the large universe of the developers raises more questions than what it could answer during the turbulent year. Track2Realty looks in to look ahead.

Festive home sales! Reality versus narrative

I often get amused when I get into the details of the industry survey that shouts at the top of its voice – “All is Well”. Some of these industry reports claiming the business to be witness to higher consumer sentiment are based on the feedback of connected parties like developers, banks, financial institutions and private equity players. All in all, it’s a family cycle where everyone is desperate to beg, borrow or steal for sale. The most important stakeholder – the home buyer – whose sentiment is being tracked is better left out in this mutual appreciation club of vested interests.

Real estate winners & losers post Covid

When it comes to the recovery of the asset class, the market doesn’t spread its gift with equal generosity. The historic high growth curve of the stock market post Covid crash in March 2020 didn’t make every company’s share valuable. Similarly, in real estate there are certainly some clear winners & losers during the pandemic, finds Track2Realty analysis.

China’s Evergande both a learning & potential disruption for Indian real estate?

It is the story of a debt ridden real estate company that is financially overleveraged; gone beyond execution capabilities; has multi-city penetration; is into multiple businesses; and the promoters are just delaying the inevitable. The developer that you instantly recall is China’s Evergrande. It’s the talk of the town across the built environment of global real estate today. But wait! Has India not been witness to its own Evergrande moment (though on a smaller scale) in the past? Track2Realty speaks to cross section of industry analysts.
