Home Buyers Back In The Market - A Respite For Realtors

It seems that realty sector is on the path of recovery, with developers reporting an improvement in apartment sales in the three months ended June compared with previous quarters, although there's no boom yet. Parsvnath Developers Ltd sold 400 apartments (600,000-700,000 sq. ft) across segments compared with sales of just 70-80 apartments during the preceding quarter. Sales figures in the residential market have picked up in Mumbai and the National Capital Region centred on New Delhi in recent months, with demand increasing for affordable housing. As per a 13 July report by Motilal Oswal Securities Ltd, developers such as DLF, Unitech Ltd, Indiabulls Real Estate Ltd, Housing Development and Infrastructure Ltd and Puravankara Projects Ltd launched a total of 35 million sq. ft during the first quarter out of which they sold 15.8 million sq. ft, almost half of what was launched.

Govt Sops can Revive Real Estate Sector

Eyeing fresh signs of a revival in the economy, which should nudge growth back to 9% level by end-2010, finance minister Pranab Mukherjee announced fresh tax giveaways for housing and renewed the government’s commitment to more economic reforms and introduction of a single goods and services tax (GST) by 1 April. The move, expected to further boost housing demand in the economy especially in tier II cities, also seeks to quell growing criticism that the Congress-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA) is averse to second-generation reforms. Replying to the debate on the Finance Bill, which was approved by a voice vote by the Lok Sabha, Mukherjee renewed his efforts to strike political consensus on key areas of tax reform, including the introduction of a direct tax code. The reply also calibrated a few of his 6 July Budget tax proposals, which are not expected to result in big revenue giveaways, thereby precluding the possibility of a marked increase in the Rs4 trillion fiscal deficit for

Govt Announces Bill to Regulate Real Estate Sector by Aug-Sept

The minister for housing and urban poverty alleviation, Kumari Selja has announced a model bill for regulating the real estate sector by August-September timeframe. Talking about the 100 day agenda for her ministry, Selja said that the Model Bill would propose a regulator and aim to address the concerns of consumers as well as the real estate industry. The finer details of the Model Bill could not be ascertained. She said, “We have initiated a dialogue with all key stakeholders including private sector, NGOs, and various States to prepare the model Bill for regulating the real estate sector.” Bangalore -based realtor Ozonegroup has announced the launch of its maiden township project — ‘The Metrozone’ — in Chennai . The project will be a joint venture between Ozonegroup, HDFC India Real Estate Fund and Urban Infrastructure Opportunities Fund and would involve an overall investment of Rs 2,500 crore and is likely to be completed in about 52 months.

Hike expected in Income Tax Exemption on Home Loans

The government is considering a proposal to hike income-tax exemption available for interest payment on home loans to Rs 2.5 lakh a year, to boost demand and rebuild the slowdown-hit housing industry. The ministry of housing and urban development has urged finance minister Pranab Mukherjee to make an announcement to this effect as part of his Budget presentation in early July, a government official said on condition of anonymity. At present, taxpayers taking housing loans are eligible for income-tax exemption on interest payment of up to Rs 1.5 lakh every year. Besides this, the repayment of principal amount is part of investments eligible for benefit under Section 80(C) of the Income-Tax Act, which has a ceiling of Rs 1 lakh. The government has already identified housing as one of its focus areas, a fact highlighted by President Pratibha Patil in her address to both the houses of Parliament. The existing tax exemption limit is considered inadequate at a time when a two-bedroom house i

Pune metro train could be a reality by 2014

PUNE: Suggesting the functional structure for the proposed Pune Metro Rail Corporation (PMRC), the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation's (DMRC) final draft report envisages that the Pune metro project can be completed by 2014-2015 at a cost of Rs 8,401 (corridor -I) and Rs 9,534 (corridor II). The report says that the Pune metro, like the DMRC, can ask for concession on value-added tax as well as concession in electricity and other municipal taxes. "The PMC needs 64,435 hectares of land for the metro. Beside this, there is a need for another 4 hectares of land which could come from the Agriculture college land. This 1,04,435 hectares could be commercially exploited and developed by allowing 4 FSI. Around Rs 600 crore could come in this way," says the report. In practical terms, however, this might not be so easy. The agriculture college has already announced that it will not give its land for the project. "The area, along with the metro corridor, could be commercially expl

Lull over, realty ready to roar again

As developers cut debt, offload assets and push sales, investors start trickling back Investors and analysts have begun re-rating the realty sector on optimism that the worst may be over, as the efforts of recent months and a stable global environment will help developers attract funds and boost earnings. Developers in the past year have restructured debt, sold non-core assets and tweaked product mix, helping to push up sales. This has encouraged investors to buy stocks of real estate companies and motivate analysts to revise price targets and upgrade the outlook on the sector. "The stabilisation in the international market improved financials arising out of restructuring of loans and enhanced liquidity from banks have resulted in revision in the outlook for the sector," said Dipesh Sohani, an analyst with MF Global, an equity brokerage. "The real estate players are better placed now than what they were two-three quarters before." Reflecting the positive sentiment,

Silver Lining

WITH an upswing in the Indian equity market, the tide seems to be turning particularly for real estate developers. Realty stocks have recovered 50-60% from their 52-week lows. Recently, realty majors Unitech, Indiabulls and DLF came out with their qualified institutional placement (QIP) issue and it received a very good response. The three companies cumulatively raised a little over Rs 8,000 crore. The success of this fund-raising activity brings hope for this cash strapped sector when demand offtake is very low. Indiabulls Real Estate issued 14.36 crore equity shares at Rs 185 per share to raise Rs 2,656.5 crore through QIP. It is believed that Indiabulls will use the funding for its projects in Mumbai. Unitech too raised $325 million through QIP. Part of the funds would be used to repay debt. The promoter's stake afterthe QIP has come down in both the cases. DLF's promoters sold 9.9% stake in DLF for Rs 3,850 crore to its existing institutional investors. This money is raised

The Indian Banks' Association (IBA) would review the response of borrowers towards the SBI scheme after three weeks and if it finds that there has been a good response, other banks will follow suit, according to a top IBA official.

He said the review would be conducted after the completion of three weeks of the launch of the scheme.Last week, SBI had announced that it would offer home loans at a flat rate of 8% to all borrowers and would freeze this rate for one year.

Realtors set free of service tax burden on sale of apartments

PROPERTY developers building residential complexes will not have to pay service tax on sale of apartments now, as the tax department has cleared the ambiguity on taxability of these companies. The Central Board of Excise and Customs (CBEC) in a circular has said construction service provided by a builder to a person buying the apartment till the execution of sale deed would not attract service tax. Usually, developers enter into an 'agreement to sell' with the buyer of the property. But the property remains under the ownership of the developer and it is only after the completion of the construction and full payment of the agreed sum that a sale deed is executed and ownership of the property transferred to the buyer. "Therefore, any service provided by such seller in connection with the construction of residential complex till the execution of such sale deed would be in the nature of 'self-service' and consequently will not attract service tax," the circular sa

Banks Allure NRIS into Real Estate with New Schemes

The booming real estate market in the country has prompted industry players to introduce a slew of innovative products to people willing to pay. From real estate developers to real estate fund managers, from banks to housing finance companies, it's a party time for all. But behind those euphoric times, some banks, with operations in India and outside, are offering innovative products to non-resident Indians (NRIs), which could turn tricky in case Indian real estate market falls into a trough, sources said. It involves the foreign and Indian operations of the same bank, the NRI and his friends, relatives and associates based in India. To start with, NRI, with the help of his friends and others, establishes an Indian company that could do business in the real estate sector. Now the bank in India gives some loan to the company to buy land in India. On the other hand, the NRI keeps a fixed deposit with the wealth management division or private banking arm of the same bank's oversea

Let's Debate about Investment instruments of Real Estate Vs Sensex.

Proof of well organised Infrastructure towards NIBM from MG Road, Camp

This is with reference to my previous article about Massive Development near about NIBM Area and very improved existing connectivity of roads with the centre location of city i.e. MG Road and Railway station. The Proof to this is that recently the Road coming from MG Road to NIBM from Golibar Maidan side have been converted to one way to check traffic jams and the traffic has been succesfully routed through other roads coming from MG Road Pul Gate Busstand and Command hospital towards NIBM. My reason to draw all readers attention is that it really show great potential for sustainability of growth for future real estate developments in NIBM area. if we have many roads parallely to connect Central location of city then the growth will never get any setback, On the contrary, the today's hot spot like Koregaon and Kalyani nagar are already terribly suffering from regular traffic jams as there is no other alternate roads available to solve the problem now. Hope you will consider this ma

Source: The Hindu Business Line Fall-out of Cash Reserve Ratio cut Kolkata, Oct. 13 While banks do not anticipate an immediate decrease in lending rates after the 150 basis-point cut in Cash Reserve Ratio by the Reserve Bank of India, real estate developers expect the measure to soften home loan rates for its consumers. Demand for real estate property has decreased by nearly 25-30 per cent in the country over the last 18 months, when home loan rates soared from an average of 7 per cent to as high as 12-13 per cent. "The home loan rate in India is among the highest in the world and we expect it to be reduced by at least 100 basis points after the cut in CRR," said Mr Pradip Kumar Chopra, Chairman, PS Group.

Home land gets closer for overseas

Source: The Economic Times PIOs May Get To Buy Property In India Without RBI Approval Visa THERE'S good news for the people of Indian origin (PIO). The government is planning to allow them to buy property in India without mandatory RBI approval and without the hassles of producing a valid visa. The current Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA) guidelines are also being amended to remove a 'gender bias' where non-residents whose mothers or grandmothers were citizens of India will also be allowed to buy real estate in the country. The existing rules permit only those PIOs to buy property in India whose father or grandfather were Indian citizens. The proposal mooted by the ministry of overseas Indian affairs seeks to make buying of real estate by over-seas Indians hassle-free and comes as a breather for real estate firms who can now expect more buyers from abroad at a time when domestic demand is low. Current laws restrict investments by PIOs in real estate, causing delays ex

How best to tackle inflation

The inflation fire is now an inferno. It singed wallets on its way from 4.7 per cent in July 2007 to 8.86 per cent in May 2008. It did not stop there, but shot up to a 13-year high of 11.42 per cent for the week ended 14 June. Much of this recent rise is being attributed to the pervasive impact of the increase in the state-administered prices of oil products on 5 June. That looked inevitable after international oil prices rose to an all-time high, up to $140 a barrel last fortnight. Worse, this inflation is not expected to go south anytime soon. Says Shuchita Mehta, senior economist, Standard Chartered Bank: "We expect inflation to remain high for some time and to average 8.72 per cent this fiscal year."Why high inflation is here to stayOil aftershock. With little chance of increasing global supplies, higher extraction costs, production cuts and export taxes in some oil producing countries, and speculative investments in oil by large international investors has buttressed pri
