Festive season in India begins now and is considered to be the most auspicious time of the year to buy or sell a home, but this year, the real estate transactions have ground to a halt. As the number of COVID-19 cases increases exponentially each day, stocks have dropped, businesses have closed and the entire nation is under lockdown. With the uncertainty surrounding our current situation, it’s no surprise that the housing market has also taken a substantial blow. Is this demand dent in the short term? Moving forward will there be a correction expected due to the global crisis and the likely recession?

Repo linked loans by all private and public sector banks - a reality in the near future?

 

What are the steps required to revive the residential demand in the mid-segment?

 

Recommended tax incentives required for a first home and second home buyers?

 

With the sharp dip in mortgage rates, what will hold the buyers back?
