Part - 3

2. Indian Real Estate Market Trend
The Indian real estate sector is one of the fastest growing and globally
recognised sectors. The growth rate of the industry is at a compound annual
growth rate (CAGR) of 19% for the period 2010–2014, with Tier I metropolitan
cities contributing to almost 40% of this growth. The total realty market in
the country is expected to touch US$ 180 billion by 2020.
It comprises four sub sectors-housing, retail, hospitality, and commercial.

3. Housing or Residential Real Estate
In 2013, high interest rates and sticky inflation continued to exert pressure on
demand across the 10 major cities (Mumbai, NCR, Bengaluru, Kolkata, Chennai,
Hyderabad, Pune, Ahmedabad, Chandigarh and Kochi) as potential buyers
remained in a wait-and watch mode.

4. Housing or Residential Real Estate
Consequently, new home bookings declined year-on-year across all cities barring
Pune and Bengaluru. Average capital values too grew by a tepid 4-5 per cent y-o-
y, mainly led by a rise in the first half. In the latter half of the year, capital values
remained stable or declined marginally over the first half.

5. Commercial Office Space
During the global economic slowdown in 2008-09, demand for commercial
office space, especially from the IT/ITeS and BFSI sectors, plummeted causing
average lease rentals to fall by 25-30 per cent between the first half of 2008
and the second half of 2009.

6. Commercial Office Space
In subsequent years, average lease rentals in the 10 major cities have moved
sideward, barring a few micro markets which have recorded a rise or a fall.
Demand gained momentum briefly in the first half of 2011, but high vacancies
restricted a sharp rise in lease rentals.

7. Commercial Office Space
Weak demand has also slowed down execution of many projects. Currently,
lease rentals in almost 90 per cent of micro markets in the 10 major cities are
25-30 per cent below peak levels seen in the first half of 2008.

8. Retail Real Estate
Post the 2008-09 slowdown, demand for retail real estate space was weighed
down by the prevailing oversupply. Since the first half of 2010, lease rentals in
the 10 major cities have also remained flat owing to the vacancies, failing to
breach peak levels seen in the first half of 2008.
