EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Real estate is a 12$ billion (revenue) industry in India. There has been a rapid
growth in the industry in the past few years. In the residential sector, a growing
middle class is enjoying rising income levels. Combined with smaller household
sizes, this demographic change has boosted demand for more modern housing and
home loans. Meanwhile, increasing consumer spending power has encouraged
growth in organized in organized retailing – both feeding off and contributing to
the spear of ‘mall culture’ and the popularity of other large-scale retail property
developments.
In the commercial property segment, strong growth in the services sector –
particularly in the IT – and corporates’ growing scale of operations have led to
greater demand for commercial space, including modern offices, warehouses and
lodging space.
Many Developers have substantial plans to increase both their size and
geographical spread. They are also expanding into different kinds of properties,
which can boost the firms’ franchise values and reduce concentration risks.
However, managing and financing such activities can be a challenge, and puts a
premium on financial flexibility, capital access and operational infrastructure.
The project assigned to me has an objective to find and analyze the current
scenario of Real Estate, covering the preferences of current as well as prospective
customers. The major part of the project also analyses the size of investment in
various states and mind set of the customers regarding this as well as the
perceptions of customers towards major leading Real Estate players.
The study was carried out with a methodology, in order to collect as much primary
data as possible. Data was collected by getting the questionnaires filled from Real
Estate Agents across Lucknow.
5
Once the data was collected, this data was analyzed using Microsoft Excel as a tool
and various conclusions were drawn. This analysis is depicted in the form of
various charts and graphs. Along with the questionnaires, Agents’ viewpoints on
various issues were also taken in order to get a more insight into the Real Estate.
Following is the analyses done and conclusions drawn:
← Plots, Apartments and Rented Offices are the most preferred investment
options in Real Estate people prefer for investment.
← The states that people prefer for investment and anticipate a good return in
those states are:
NCR
DELHI
LUCKNOW
← Delhi, seen as a market of End-Users, rather than investors.
← People from all over are interested in investing in NCR, including a good
amount of population of NRIs.
← In other states, a declining trend is seen; NCR is into a stagnant state, where
there are least chances of the market going worse in the near future.

Malls.

BRAND NAME and PREVIOUS TRACK RECORD of the company that
counts most for the prospective clients to invest into a particular project.
This is for a reason that projects in Real Estate cannot be accurately
forecasted for success or failure. So, counting on the Brand name and
previous track record is the only option prospects are left with.
People nowadays go for Short-Term investment plans. This is mainly
because, Real Estate is not at a boom, so people, who are interested in
investing want to invest and realize as soon as possible.
74% respondents: Own funds that people use for investing into a particular
project.
94% respondents: Nearby housing facility does influence investors to invest
in commercial properties in remote areas.
92% respondents: future govt. plans, somehow influence the investment
decisions in these areas.

INTRODUCTION TO REAL ESTATE
Real estate is a 12$ billion (revenue) industry in India. There has been a rapid
growth in the industry in the past few years.100% FDI is allowed in real estate
development subject to minimum scale norms of either: 25 acres in case of
serviced plots or integrated townships; or 50,000 sq. mtrs. of built-up area for
construction development projects.

Real Estate Investment Options
Agriculture Land
Residential/Plotted development
Apartments/Villas
Commercial Spaces
Farm Houses
11
AGRICULTURE LAND
Agriculture Land in India is the most protected area by the State and Central Govt.
Identification of Agricultural Land requires a bit of analysis about the rate and
assessment of future development in the nearby area. Due to fast growing
urbanization and development of infrastructure the price of agriculture land zooms
quickly. Agricultural land can be given on contract to cultivators with sharing of
crop model, to make small but regular tax-free earnings. Rural agriculture land is
completely free from capital gains tax and income from lease out or sale of crop is
also exempt as per the provision of IT Act, 1961.
RESIDENTIAL PLOTTED DEVELOPMENT
Most state governments have loosened their fists and have implemented land
reforms that make the conversion of agricultural land into residential land much
easier. The process of township development takes a period of about 5 to 10 years.
Initially, the prices of plotted development are quite low which rapidly increases
with the pace of development and with the rise in inflation factor.
APARTMENTS/VILLAS
As per the assessment made in the Indian Habitat Policy 1998, the demand for
houses in urban area is to the tune of 22 million houses. The gap in demand and
supply in housing stock has thrown big investment opportunities. Booking at the
launching stage and getting the exit at the completion stage ca offer shining returns
on investments. In this process the stamp duty and other taxes can be legally
avoided.
COMMERCIAL/RETAIL SPACES
The retail boom in India has fueled huge demand for commercial/shopping spaces.
Many MNC’s and big corporate retailers prefer to take prime commercial
properties on long-term lease basis. The option offers regular returns besides
appreciation in capital value, taking both the returns together gives handsome
12
return and a wonderful combination of regular and a wonderful combination of
regular and long-term returns.
FARM HOUSES/SECOND HOMES
Many developers are offering lifestyle with smart returns through farm
houses/second homes. The offer comprises of sale of farm houses at affordable
rates with professional property management giving lifestyle and capital
appreciation together.
REAL ESTATE MUTUAL FUNDS
Securities Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has recently allowed the launch of
mutual funds which can invest in physical property. Many corporates such as
HDFC and IDBI are in the process of launching real estate mutual funds.
Along with the government bodies and funding agency, various infrastructure
development companies, machinery and materials suppliers, ancillary suppliers
and allied support industries would play an important role in meeting in demand
the for infrastructure development.
The Indian Infrastructure Sector is currently going through a vast transformation.
The Government’s decision to throw open the construction of roads, Bridges
Airports and ports to the private sector and allowing 100 percent Foreign
Investment in real Estate Projects has provided a boost to the construction Industry
as well as generate demand for construction machinery. Housing and Infrastructure
Projects like Roads, Bridges and Ports are expected to grow about 20 percent per
annum for the next 15 years.
The new and expanding housing and infrastructure construction ventures have
generated substantial demand for construction machinery manufacturing and
servicing, including erection, commissioning and maintenance. Several multi
national firms are already present in the country.
