Creating A Soulful Experience

What is your view on the overall real estate scenario in the country currently and outlook for 2020?

The real estate sector, which is one of the major contributors to India’s GDP, has undergone significant changes over the last few years. A series of key decisions were taken by the government to revive the realty sector and the impetus given to the residential sector is expected to yield positive results. These reforms will also be instrumental in attracting investors, institutions and private capital players into the real-estate market. Reputed developers with good track records continue to perform. As a result, the segment has been moving at a steady pace. We expect this year to reap the benefits of initiatives taken by the government that would lead to a revival in the sector and the year 2020 is definitely expected to infuse growth in the sector. More private investments will come in and consolidation, and mergers within the space are likely to continue. An alternative investment fund worth Rs 25,000 crore created for last-mile funding of stalled housing projects would definitely help completion of projects this year. The year 2020 will see the industry grow in terms of newer policies aimed at improving buyer sentiments. As a luxury homes developer, there has been a consistent association of great clientele for Bennet & Bernard and our uniquely designed projects remains our confidence that this will continue.
