Outlook
The Indian economy grew at 7.8 per cent in the first quarter of the current fiscal year, according to the data shared by National Statistical Office. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) retained its GDP growth forecast of 6.5 per cent for FY 2023-24. The real estate sector is expected to expand to $5.8 trillion by 2047, contributing 15.5 per cent to the GDP from an existing share of 7.3 per cent, a joint report by Knight Frank and National Real Estate Development Council (NAREDCO) indicates.
The stability of unchanged interest rates is a significant catalyst, promoting growth and encouraging potential buyers to invest in the residential market.
As we enter the festive season, the group is confident of continuing this strong momentum with the upcoming festive season. We remain poised for continued growth, fuelled by strategic foresight, market resilience, customer-centric approaches, and an unwavering commitment to quality.
