FDI NORMS RELIEF MAKE SECTOR OPTIMISTIC

The government has relaxed FDI norms as stated in the Union Budget which is able to conceivably double the influx of funds into the real estate sector and make the country a step nearer to NDAs poll promise of Housing for all by 2022.

The governments call to relax foreign direct investment (FDI) norms in the construction industry will go protracted approach in reviving the sector. Builders and developers say the choice will definitely facilitate in bringing down the cost of construction, because it can result in the supply of low funds to the sector.

This will not only solely result in to the creation of new jobs in the industry, but also help the government achieve its poll promise of Housing for all by 2022.

The Union government reduced the necessities of minimum built-up area to 20,000 sq meters from the existing level of 50,000 sq meters for 100% FDI in the construction of projects under automatic route.

It also reduced the need of minimum capital investment for a project to qualify for 100% FDI by 50%, to $5 million from $10 million. Apart from this, if a developer constructs affordable houses on 30% of the project area, the new norms have waived off all the necessities for 100% FDI.

These measures have the potential to more than double FDI inflow into commercial real estate, hotels, housing and townships in the next one year.

The governments call will definitely facilitate the real estate sector, but added a caveat that the government should streamline the approval processes additionally in order to make business easier.

Apart from the financing norms, the government also set to ease the otherwise cumbersome procedure to exit a project and repatriate profits. This will also act as one more advantage for foreign investors.

The new changes can facilitate attracting money, which might revitalize the sector parched for funds.

100% FDI would mean that more capital will be invested in towns and cities for the development of residential and commercial spaces. The new policy announcements would enhance the general investor sentiments and expand the inflow of funds.

The decision was the much needed breather for the sector and would encourage developers to be more aggressive in the segment, whereas taking development beyond metro cities.

This would ease the burden of lending for banking and non-banking institutions, which till date are bearing the load of capital needs of the real estate sector, thereby serving other sectors grow.

This developing industry has now turned into the current most loved of NRI who are energetically putting resources into properties in their country.

NRI interests in Indian realty may climb by 35% in 2014. This is a direct result of the decision of a solid and proactive government into force furthermore the empowering Budget that took after. This has reflected in stocks, with the Bombay Stock Exchange Sensex hitting levels of 26,000 inside few weeks after declaration of race results. The BSE Realty Index, among Indias most inadequately performing since the time that the worldwide monetary emergency (GFC) hit, additionally picked up more than 74% in the course of the most recent nine months.

Financial specialists are anticipating the new governments drives towards usage of framework undertakings, justification of the assessment administration as for securities and items transaction charge, alongside different changes.

There is absolutely an upsurge in the pattern and it can be relied upon to climb further in the future. So, what are the most favored ends in India that NRI are all the more eager to contribute?

Probably the most important urban communities in both classes are Bangalore, Chennai, Pune, Coimbatore, Kochi, Hyderabad, and the Delhi NCR.

The enquiries are principally originating from NRI dwelling in the UAE, the US, Singapore, Australia, the UK, Canada, and South Africa. Additionally, this year, interest is more for the top of the line properties and business structures, engineers. NRI search for money creating properties to contribute, inside their funding requirements. Private properties which can get great rentals are most noteworthy support due to the reasonableness element furthermore as a result of the lower hazard. NRI who have budgetary clout and danger hankering are likewise putting into rented out `grade an office spaces in essential urban areas.

Real Estate advisors & trend watchers believe that this infrastructural development, set to connect Delhi and Gurgaon in an hour, is decisive when it comes to real estate.

Why Dwarka Expressway?

Barely 10 km from Gurgaon is Dwarka Expressway which is nearest to Delhi. The area proximity to suburban business districts of Sohna, Cyber City, Golf Course Road and even to the peripheral business districts of Manesar can be decisive for the growth potential of the property market along the Expressway.

Reputed realty players like Ansal, SS Group have launched their projects and in the absence of pocket-friendly choices anywhere else, Dwarka Expressway is a promising deal. Sectors closer to Delhi command a 30 per cent premium, while properties towards the end of NH-8 are relatively affordable.

For frequent fliers, the area is barely a few minutes from the international airport. All these amenities plus a proposed metro are what the upper-middle class Delhi buyers know as affordability today.

The impact of all these facilities reflects on the prices in the area, Prices have also appreciated quickly, from Rs 2,500-3,500 per sq ft a few years back to around Rs 5,000 per sq ft in terms of re-sale and anywhere up to Rs 11,000 per sq ft for new property.

Sectors near the Dwarka expressway are Sectors 99 to 113, 83 to 86. The Gurgaon-Manesar Master Plan-2012 has given a boost to the Expressway. The total stretch covered by the expressway is around 18km including a wide road, which is around 150 meters wide, starting from Dwarka and connecting to Palam Vihar. The main objective of the expressway is to reduce the travel time of people commuting from West Delhi to Gurgaon.

Sectors on the expressway, like Sectors 110A, 111, 112 and 113, which are near Delhi, are likely to see higher appreciation in the future. Sectors near the expressway are Sectors 37D, 83, 84, 88, 99, 100, 101, to 110 are being developed as residential and commercial, with the maximum area dedicated for residential development.

Concerns

The last leg of construction of the expressway is very crucial, almost like a beginning when it comes to unfolding the real estate chapter of the area. If the expressway project gets delayed, there would be genuinely low interest in the area, less re-sale units transacted in the market and therefore, there wouldnt be any fresh money in the local real estate economics. In the long term, however, the market is sure to pick up.

Development is continuous but prospective buyers are few owing to the slowdown in the market in general as well as that of the expressway project. Majority of the properties is under construction and developers seem to be knowingly delaying their projects.

Caution

Projects like the Faridabad-Noida-Ghaziabad Expressway (FNG) have got so delayed that they have just given way to a lot of construction activities coming up and realtors trying to market their projects owing to proximity to the FNG.

Online discussion forums, consisting of prospective buyers and those who have already put in their money banking on future prospects of FNG, reveal that such project delays have disillusioned prospective buyers. Similarly, Dwarka Expressway where work started in 2011 and was scheduled to be operational by 2012.

Further delays because of litigations and land acquisition have pushed the deadline to the year 2017. Buyers have taken the cue and therefore there is a lull in the market. Undoubtedly in the long-term, the Dwarka Expressway is a practical investment.

Diwali Gift to Real Estate - Sales up by 20%

Real Estate sales have risen by over 20% in the Gurgaon region in the run-up to Diwali this year as compared to last year which shows signs of improvement in the market that faced a slowdown in 2013.

Real Estate experts and consultants say all thanks to a new government, which has managed to improve investors confidence, and the attractive marketing strategy adopted by many developers. This trend is likely to continue over the next few months.

Last year was disastrous for the real estate market, as no one was interested in buying anything. But this year, the market is more optimistic, with the high as well as middle class coming out, making enquiries and even booking apartments. This results in a rise of bookings by over 20% as compared to last year.

Commercial space also has witnessed an upswing in the sales over the last few weeks. Today, commercial development is visible near Dwarka Expressway. This area has been growing with IT sectors, corporate offices, shopping malls, studio apartments etc. This will ensure that this area has enough employment opportunities and walk to work is not a dream. Many industry watchers have already begun calling Dwarka Expressway the centre of Gurgaon!

SOHNA - INVESTMENT DESTINATION`

The emerging town Sohna, which was once considered as a remote area, is now one of the hottest destinations for investment in the NCR.

Sohna Road which connects Gurgaon & Sohna once a bumpy, two lane road has now been replaced by a busy, six-lane highway. The housing and commercial developments along Sohna Road have now reached Sohna town and the area has seen a sharp rise in property prices.

Sohna is a town and a municipal committee in Gurgaon district in Haryana. Located 24km from Gurgaon on the highway from Gurgaon to Alwar, the town is famous for its hot springs and ancient Shiva temple. Some of the institutes of repute here are G D Goenka University and K R Mangalam International University.

Prospects for investment While Manesar is a major hub after Gurgaon, surrounding towns like Sohna and Bhiwadi have also started attracting investments in a big way. Sohna has great connectivity to Dharuhera, and onwards to Rewari, on NH-8, by Tauru road to Gurgaon, by Sohna Road to Palwal via KMP Expressway--and directly to Faridabad as well.

The biggest USP of Greater Gurgaon Extensions realty market is good connectivity and accessibility. The proposed 90-metre-wide link road from Gurgaons Sector 63 merging into the proposed 150-metre-wide Gurgaon Extension Road will not only reduce the travel distance by a couple of kilometers, it will also ensure a smooth travel from Golf Course and Golf Course Extension Road.

The KMP bypass would take care of the heavy vehicular movement, reducing the traffic flow on the existing Gurgaon-Sohna-Alwar Highway. Also, the emerging area will have excellent connectivity with the NCR through the proposed Metro line.

Sohna is going to flourish and the quick appreciation on investment in real estate market. The 1,483km long Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC) is also located close to the forthcoming realty projects of the town.

Major developers like Eldeco, Shree Vardhaman, Ireo, Godrej, Tata Housing etc have plans to launch new projects here. Considering the residential and commercial developments on Sohna Road and Sohna itself, the area can be assumed as the next big thing for realty development after MG Road.

BREEZ BUILDERS & DEVELOPERS (P) LTD is also developing a residential project Global Heights in Sector 33, Sohna, under the Haryana Govt. affordable housing policy to cater to the housing needs of the middle class and lower middle class at affordable rates in the urban areas.

The group has been awarded a License by Govt. of Haryana to develop an Affordable Group Housing Colony in the Sector-33 Sohna Road, Gurgaon. Sector-33 Sohna is very close to Industrial Area of Sohna, and Sohna Town. It is surrounded by the beauty of nature along with renowned Institutes like G D GOENKA University, K R Mangalam International University.

The project has 1BHK & 2BHK flats at the government rate of Rs 3,600 per sq ft on carpet area. The project is just 20 minutes drive from Rajiv Chowk in Gurgaon and will be completed in three years. All the apartments in the project are come with basic amenities required for living.

Affordable Homes Policy by Haryana Government

Govt. of Haryana has rolled-out Affordable Homes Policy to cater the needs of home for middle class and lower middle class people in the urban areas.

Considering the fast urbanization taking place in Gurgaon during past few years, this region has come up with huge demand of real estate market. A key driver of demand is the employment generated in Gurgaon. There is a large inflow of highly as well as low paid professionals into Gurgaon every year, which converts into strong demand for housing in peripheral areas.

For Highly paid professionals Gurgaon offers a range of 2BHK and 3BHK apartments which costs nothing less than 75 lacs, but lags behind the dreams of any middle class family of owning a home in the city which require 1 BHK apartments.

Catering to the housing problems of all sections of the society, the Haryana Government had announced the Affordable Housing scheme for Gurgaon in 2013. Though the proposed plan had gathered momentum, but there have been many factors that have led to the supply constraint, one of them being the lack of affordable land. After the government and RBI announced special schemes and incentives for affordable housing, developers are struggling to acquire low cost land for affordable housing projects. The land prices in Gurgaon are soaring sky high, and cheap land is only available in the outskirts of the city.

Under this Affordable Housing Scheme government aimed to provide 30,000 residential flats for the lower middle class segment, and offered special rebate for building affordable houses. Around 35 developers had applied for the rebate, wherein apartments of pre-defined size are made available at pre-defined rates within a Targeted time-frame. All such projects shall be required to be necessarily completed within predefined timeframe from the approval of building plans or grant of environmental clearance, whichever is later. The licenses shall not be renewed beyond the said time period from the date of commencement of project.

To cater the needs of home for middle class and lower middle class at affordable cost in the urban areas BREEZ BUILDERS & DEVELOPERS (P) LTD has been awarded a License by Govt. of Haryana to develop an Affordable Group Housing Colony in the Prime Sector-33, Sohna Road, Gurgaon. Sector-33 Sohna is very close to Industrial Area of Sohna, and Sohna Town. It is surrounded by the beauty of nature along with renowned Institutes like G D GOENKA University & K R Mangalam International University.

The best part is that these apartments are located on well-developed streets with all necessary infrastructural facilities likes as 24 hours water supply, power supply and also 24 hours security. These residential apartments offer 1 & 2 BHK Flats which have Gated Community. The prices of the apartments are Rs. 3,600 per sq ft., which was comparatively quite cheaper, compared to other properties. On long term these apartments give good returns.

Home Loan Rates likely to Severe

The Real Estate Market is demanding rate cuts, so that buyers affordability in purchasing a house improves. Any rate cut is likely to help in reviving the real estate market. This is also likely to help other sectors of the economy to improve their performance.

As RBI has not cut rates the real estate sector is disappointed, but bankers say interest rates on home loans are likely to drop in the near future, as the liquidity in the banking system has improved.

Real Estate prices in ral terms after adjusting for inflation are expected to come down, RBIs governor Raghuram Rajan said.

The value of properties should increase in a growing economy, but the housing data suggests that with inflation rate at 7% to 8%, prices are coming down in real terms and becoming more affordable as wages are going up, RBIs governor Raghuram Rajan said.

Despite this favorable observation by the RBI governor, the central bank continued with the existing high benchmark interest rates signaling banks to continue with tight liquidity policy to contain retail inflation to around 6%. But, the good news is that many bankers are of the opinion that despite RBIs decision not to cut rates, interest rates on home loans are likely to soften in the near future, as the liquidity in the banking system has improved. Real estate association CREDAIs president (Elect), Getamber Anand, expressed his disappointment at the RBIs decision to not cut interest rate. He said that a cut in interest rate would have helped revive the economy.

In fact, in the past seven years, RBI continued to believe that real estate prices were soaring and it was a bubble in the making. Because of this, RBI discouraged banks from lending to the real estate sector. With the economic indicators being stable and inflation coming down, a rate cut would have attracted more buyers to the sector during the festival season. We believe that it is only a matter of time before home loan rates come down giving further boost to consumer sentiments and real estate demand. However, in the near future, the RBI governor hinted at lowering rates if the macro conditions permit, which would boost the market sentiments.

RBI has decided to maintain its status quo on key policies, though lowering the interest rates would have acted as a catalyst to boost housing demand. As anticipated, with the change at the political front and onset of festive season, positive sentiments are seen in the market and lowering the rate of interest would have encouraged homebuyers further. The decision to have stable policies will be beneficial in the long run but keeping in mind the current moderate demand in the market, a small cut in the rate of interest would have made a big difference.

The decision of RBI to keep the interest rates on home loans unchanged has dampened our hopes, as the interest rates in the last quarter were also not touched. But this time the expectations from RBI was that keeping in mind the growing positive sentiment in the real estate sector, the reduced rates on home loans would have given impetus to the existing upward graph of the positive sentiment being shown by home seekers ever since the new government assumed office at the Centre.

Raghuram Rajan, however, is not overtly concerned about the high property prices. Buyers cash down payment of 20% while purchasing a residential unit provides enough cushion to the banks loan, he said.

Raghuram Rajan said the appreciation in property rates is in tandem with the inflation in a majority of cases, and added that the RBI is not concerned about the lenders perspective because there is an equity component which home buyers get in while getting a loan.

In the view of high property prices Haryana Govt. has also taken a step. Haryana Govt. is intended to encourage the planning and completion of Group Housing Projects on Sohna road wherein apartments of pre-defined size are made available at pre-defined rates within a particular time-frame. All such projects shall be required to be necessarily completed within predefined time frame from the approval of building plans or grant of environmental clearance, whichever is later. The licenses shall not be renewed beyond the said time period from the date of commencement of project.

Sohna Road: Next Realty Destination

Sohna Road is appearing as the booming realty destination in Gurgaon and is proving to be in good demand with supply keeping pace. An example of this lies in is the high number of transactions taking place in this area.

Sohna Road has residential apartments, commercial spaces, villas, IT parks and retail. As a result this location has become the centre of Gurgaon.

The availability of land for commercial and residential development is one of the main factors driving development in this location. As a result it shows huge demand and appreciation in property prices on the Sohna Road. The Master Plan Sohna for the city has opened up many sectors for real estate development. With 30 to 35 sectors getting approval, the area is witnessing huge real estate activity.

Over the several past years, real estate values in Gurgaon have shown a significant appreciation of almost 50% in both the commercial & residential segments, making it a sought after destination for investors.

Commercial projects command Rs 12,000 per square foot while IT parks come for Rs 5,500 to 6,000 a square foot. Residential plots in the area range between Rs 70,000 to 80,000 per square yard, prices for apartments range between Rs 6,000 to 9,000 per square foot.

One of the main reasons for the growing demand is the infrastructure and enhanced connectivity options that are improving, but not enough to keep pace with the growth in the area.

Old Gurgaon is saturated and after old Gurgaon, the only availability of raw land for expansion of Gurgaon is Sohna Road. The Sohna Road is proposed to be widened to six lanes with good connectivity to NH-8 and this has made the area the next sought after residential & commercial destination.

A key driver of demand is the employment generated in Gurgaon. There is a large inflow of highly paid professionals into Gurgaon every year, which converts into strong demand for housing in peripheral areas.

In the view of meeting supply of high demand Haryana govt. have also taken a step. Haryana Govt. is intended to encourage the planning and completion of Group Housing Projects on Sohna road wherein apartments of pre-defined size are made available at pre-defined rates within a particular time-frame. All such projects shall be required to be necessarily completed within predefined time frame from the approval of building plans or grant of environmental clearance, whichever is later. The licenses shall not be renewed beyond the said time period from the date of commencement of project.

Demand Increase for Luxury Projects in Gurgaon

The luxury housing market of the Gurgaon is currently seeing a greater influx of end-user demand, in contrast to the previous trend of the investment-driven purchases.

Gurgaon will continue to see increased investment in the luxury housing space due to the strong demand in the region.

This is also coupled with the fact that Delhi does not create any significant housing supply in the mid-market segment, leading to a spillover for luxury housing into the peripheral locations of Gurgaon.

Gurgaon today has a growth story that mirrors India growth over the last decade. It has become the city with the third highest per capita income in India.

The luxury housing market of the Gurgaon is currently seeing a greater influx of demand, in contrast to the previous trend of the investment driven purchase. The sale of luxury projects has risen by around 30% in the past few years, with luxury housing in Gurgaon seeing both demand and value appreciation.

Spurred by new projects offerings, greater influx of end-user demand, and a burgeoning upwardly-mobile segment, luxury and ultra luxury housing projects, are seeing higher demand in the residential market of Gurgaon like Dwarka Expressway, NH-8, Golf Course Extension Road.

On the supply side, some new luxury project launches continued to focus on cost-effective options in alternative markets, particularly in New Gurgaon.

Developers largely focused upon luxury housing in Gurgaon during the first half of 2013; while the second half saw new launches, primarily in the high rise and mid rise segments along the Dwarka Expressway and New Gurgaon area. Even though units in residential projects launched by developers attracted maximum buyer interest and purchases, developers across segments continued to adopt various strategies like further discounts to boost sales.

Sale of luxury projects has risen by 30% in the past few years, with units in this segment in gurgaon seeing demand and value appreciation developers largely focused upon luxury housing in gurgaon during the first half of 2013; while the second half saw new launches, primarily in the high-end and mid-end segments along the dwarka expressway and new gurgaon area. Another hub for premium residential projects is Golf Course Extension Road. The area has premier lifestyle projects in both residential and commercial segments. A numbers of green-rated townships and group-housing projects have been planned on this long stretch directly connecting to the main Gurgaon-Sohna Road.

Golf Course Extension Road is the next destination for premium residential projects in Gurgaon. Besides being well connected, the area offers well-developed infrastructure with 84-metre-wide roads and 24-metre-wide by lanes, which corresponds to developments in the western countries. The area also offers excellent social infrastructure with shopping malls, commercial developments, hospitals, and educational institutions. The main objective of projects being developed along Golf Course Extension Road by private developers is to create energy-efficient, water-efficient, comfortable, healthy, and environmentally-friendly buildings and homes.

Increasing demand for luxury units, coupled with challenges like insufficient demand, inflation and lack of funding are all likely to put pressure on housing prices in the region in the short to medium term.

However, the situation can be marginally improved if new projects are launched at affordable rates. Values of Projects across most of Delhi micro markets underwent a marginal dip due to rising preferences for apartment units over builder floors in the region, besides cautious buyer sentiments, over the last few quarters.

The new Master Plan, 2031, for Gurgaon-Manesar expands the existing city to create more residential, commercial and social infrastructure like hospitals, schools, playgrounds, and physical infrastructure. The new master plan will bring in around 23,000 hectares for fresh developments. In fact, the new master plan has given a new lease of life to its market.

The new plan will also help in containing prices in the city. The Haryana government has also approved a high density policy in its comprehensive housing policy to further improve the availability of affordable houses. Under this policy, development authorities like the Haryana Urban Development Authority (Huda) will now be empowered to increase the density of population in group-housing projects.

The permitted population has been increased to 100-120 people per acre, earlier it was 80-100 people per acre. It gave opportunities to developers to build more housing units per acre than they could have done earlier. To increase the land under commercial and residential development, the new master plan has de-reserved the land earmarked for special economic zones.

The new plan has indicated that there would be an adequate provision for all community facilities and services within the sectors. Having connectivity with Delhi through roads like the 150metre-wide Northern Peripheral Road (Dwarka Expressway) and the 90-metre-wide Southern Peripheral Road, the plan also includes three major roads connecting Delhi and Gurgaon like Vasant Kunj to MG Road, among others. The new plan has also proposed to develop connectivity within the Gurgaon Manesar area to Delhi as well.

Ultra Luxury Projects on Dwarka Expressway

Dwarka Expressway offers planned development and has great potential for aspiring real estate developers like Ansal Housing, SS Group, Supertech, BPTP, Vatika etc. It carries good long-term potential, and given the overall market conditions and infrastructural issues, short-term challenges can easily be overcome, experts say.

The development of this stretch will not only reduce travel time between Delhi and Gurgaon, it will also open up avenues for planned commercial and urban development in the region.

Dwarka Expressway connects Dwarka with NH8, and brings Delhi and Gurgaon closer. The two existing roads connecting Delhi and Gurgaon, MG Road and the NH-8, are not enough to tackle the heavy traffic between Delhi and Gurgaon, and this new expressway will make connectivity between these two cities smoother and faster.

With world-class infrastructure and facilities, Dwarka Expressway promises to be a new channel of business and commerce between Delhi and Gurgaon. The Dwarka Expressway, only 2.5km from the IGI airport, will also connect 16 new residential sectors. The improvement in Haryana power supply has changed the situation in the area--from one facing endemic power shortage to one that boasts of power surplus.

Four new power plants have been set up by the Haryana government, which will add up to making Dwarka Expressway a new hub of exciting developments in real estate.

SS Group, one of the largest realty developers in the NCR, is developing Ultra Luxury Residential Apartment "Hibiscus 2" in sector 86 on Dwarka Expressway. Ansal Housing is also coming up with a Commercial Project as Ansal Boulevard in sector 83. This project is strategically located at the intersection of NH-8 and Dwarka Expressway.

Here, one can enjoy an exclusive lifestyle and privacy amidst a larger, secure community. Its connectivity will be further enhanced by a new ISBT terminal and the proposed Metro station in close vicinity, the firm spokesman said.

There would be schools, healthcare centers, police posts, clubs, a number of parks and plenty of open spaces with taxi stands in this area. A recent survey by Knight Frank pegs returns on investment at 108%, by 2017, along Dwarka Expressway. Moreover, the development is well-connected to the central business districts of Gurgaon, the new hospitality and leisure hub, Aerocity, and the IGI airport.

Impressive returns predicted For Investments

Real estate developments along Dwarka Expressway have emerged as one of the most sough-after asset classes in the NCR. The realty market along this expressway is largely flourishing over two major USPs - first is the expressway that is expected to be one of the country widest roads ever, and the shortest route to the IGI airport and the Millennium City.

According to Gurgaon new Master Plan, 2031, the proposed expressway will reach Delhi near Dwarka Phase II, where the second diplomatic enclave is being developed, and connect the current Metro corridor running parallel to the road. Once project is completed, the area will become one of the premier real estate zones in New Gurgaon. The road starts from Dwarka and crosses Bijwasan, New Palam Vihar, Kherki Daula, and finally touches NH-8. Areas that are going to reap rich dividends are Sectors 99-113 and Sectors 83 and 84. There will be a commercial belt touching Sectors 105,106, 109,110, 110A, 111, 112, and 113 with Sectors 100 and 101 reserved for public utilities, while Sectors 114 and 88 are fully commercial. Other residential areas that are a little far from the expressway but will benefit from it are Sectors 81-86, 89-93 and 95.
