A Comany demand helps in faster inventory liquidation,

Jun 10 2024

Real estate developers in India are using strong housing demand to clear existing inventories, reducing the stock of unsold properties that had been a concern in previous years. A healthier balance between demand and supply has also contributed to greater market stability.

Residential property markets across the country’s top seven cities have seen a 31% reduction in the time required to sell active unsold housing inventory, according to a recent analysis. In the March quarter, the time needed to liquidate inventory dropped to 22 months, down from 32 months at the end of 2019, mainly due to a sharp rise in housing demand. This estimate is based on average sales seen over the past eight quarters.

In the affordable housing segment, the decline was driven by its shrinking share in new project launches over the past four years. In contrast, the premium segment saw a reduction even as its share of annual launches rose significantly — from 2% in 2019 to 22% in 2023. The time taken to sell unsold premium units has fallen from 51 months in 2019 to 29 months in the first quarter of 2024, reflecting strong sales momentum.

Higher-end apartments now take an average of 29 months to sell as of March-end. Despite the longer duration compared to other segments, this marks a big improvement due to faster sales velocity. The premium category has emerged as the top performer, driven by strong buyer interest in larger homes with better amenities.

Luxury real estate demand may see moderation in near future

Luxury real estate demand may see moderation in near future 

The luxury real estate segment is likely to plateau in the near-future and affordable housing may take off as the new government takes charge, said Pankaj Kapoor, founder and managing director of real estate research firm Laisas Foras. Niranjan Hiranandani, the managing director and co-founder of Hiranandani Group, said the new government should take steps to ensure affordable housing is possible in cities such as Mumbai. “Today, almost 50 percent of the cost of the house is in government taxes, charges for development, floor space index and goods and services tax. As far as affordable housing is concerned in Mumbai and the suburbs, these taxes need to come down otherwise it is just not possible. Affordable housing doesn’t exist because the government charges are just too high,” Hiranandani told CNBC-TV18. On the real estate outlook of the financial capital of the country, Hiranandani said he is upbeat and believes change in political composition in both Maharashtra and the country, following the outcome of the Lok Sabha elections 2024, will not have any impact.  Apart from the state, the Central government also has prioritised infrastructure of Mumbai. He said, “… the central government’s commitment for the city includes bullet train, Delhi-Mumbai industrial corridor… if you look at Mumbai separately, in the next two years 330 km of metro will be coming up, we have a coastal road going to be delivered in the next three months and we have a cross harbour link, which is opening a new scope of development in the city.” The support will be there as far as affordable housing is concerned despite INDIA bloc getting a higher number in the state, he said.Moreover, Hiranandani believes that the new government, which will take charge after the upcoming Maharashtra elections, will prioritise slum redevelopment. With the kind of mandate the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led government at the Centre received, Kapoor believes affordable segment is likely to get a boost. However, he also noted that investment in infrastructure is unlikely to slowdown despite the less-than-expected mandate for the saffron party.

Home Loan borrowers may have repaid higher amounts

Jun 04 2024

Home Loan borrowers may have repaid higher amounts 

 

Mortgage disbursals are far exceeding the amount of outstanding home loans indicating faster industry-level growth and a pronounced revival in incomes that has prompted end-users to prepay liabilities or reduce debt through lump-sum part payments ahead of schedule. An analysis of data showed that higher repayments and prepayments optically limit the pace of mortgage expansions. In FY23, for instance, the combined outstanding home loan portfolio of public sector and private banks and housing finance companies, which account for a big majority of the home loan market in the country was, Rs 3.62 lakh crore. But disbursements were much higher - at Rs 8.08 lakh crore. In FY24, State Bank of India, which has 25 percent of market share, said its outstanding portfolio rose 13 percent disbursements rose 17 percent and sanctions rose 21 percent. For Bank of India, the outstanding home loans rose Rs 8,000 crore in FY24, while disbursal rose Rs 23,000 crore. With the revival of the economy and improvement in the income levels, sizable borrowers of home loans are using their surplus funds to repay and prepay their loans so that the interest burden is also less, said a senior analyst with a rating agency.  In FY23, for instance, the combined outstanding home loan portfolio of public sector and private banks and housing finance companies, which account for a big majority of the home loan amrket in the country was, Rs 3.62 lakh crore .

A Compa prices to rise steadily, affordable housing supply to lag demand

May 30 2024

Average home prices in the country are expected to rise steadily over the next few years as affluent buyers drive up demand for high-end housing, according to a survey of property experts. They also warned of a continuing shortage of affordable homes.

Home purchases are increasingly concentrated among a relatively small group of buyers who are largely unaffected by higher interest rates. Economic growth, which is expected to remain stronger than that of many other major economies, is helping sustain housing demand, although analysts note that the benefits of this growth are flowing disproportionately to higher-income groups.

According to a poll conducted in May among 15 property market specialists, average home prices are projected to rise about 6% this year and next, slightly lower than the 7% forecast earlier. Home prices had risen 4.3% in 2023, based on estimates from a national housing price index.

The country's central banking authority, which previously raised interest rates by 250 basis points between 2022 and early 2023 to manage inflation, is widely expected to begin cutting rates next quarter. However, a stable currency and strong economic conditions provide limited pressure for immediate action.

Despite government efforts to expand affordable housing, a large majority of experts — 12 out of 15 — said demand in that segment will not be met over the next two to three years, while the remaining respondents predicted oversupply.

A Company prioritise governmnent Organsiations fpr Land worth rs 1 lakh crore

May 29 2024

 

Two state-run telecom companies have decided to give preference to government organizations, both at the state and central levels, in selling their land assets worth over ?1 lakh crore. Sales to government organizations are expected to be smooth and free from unnecessary litigation. One of the companies has already raised ?1,600 crore through the sale of properties to government departments as well as private entities. The plan is to raise ?20,000 crore over the next 4–5 years through land monetization.

Property consultants view the monetization of these telecom companies’ land and properties in key cities as a strategic opportunity in the current real estate market. Post-pandemic, major commercial and residential property markets, including Mumbai, Bengaluru, Delhi, and Hyderabad, have witnessed significant activity. The telecom companies’ properties are located in prime areas with substantial commercial and residential potential, adding considerable value and making them highly sought after.

Land monetization is seen as a key strategy to revive the ailing telecom firms. The government has been taking measures to improve the operations of these loss-making entities. In 2019, a revival package worth around ?69,021 crore was provided to reduce operating costs. Additionally, in June 2023, the government approved the allotment of 4G/5G spectrum to one of the companies with a total outlay of approximately ?89,047 crore through equity infusion.

"All Eyes on Rafah" as Israel ramps up offensive on Gaza City

May 29 2024

"All Eyes on Rafah" 

Israel shelling and airstrikes, over the weekend, killed at least 45 people  most of them sheltering in tents, in the southern Gaza City of Rafah. The strike, which Gaza medics said also left hundreds of civilians with shrapnel and burn wounds, was launched late on Sunday and drew condemnation from world leaders. Israeli forces pressed their assault on the border town despite an order last week from the top UN court to halt its operation there. "All Eyes on Rafah” is a phrase that refers to the ongoing genocide in Rafah, Gaza, with over 1.4 million Palestinians seeking shelter, Iran's Embassy. The phrase is meant as a request for bystanders to not look away from what’s happening in the city of Rafah—where as many as 1.4 million people are sheltering after fleeing from violent fighting elsewhere in Gaza—as Israel continues its offensive.
