INDUSTRY STRUCTURE AND DEVELOPMENTS :

 

Real estate sector in India is on upturn. Research estimates that Indian Real Estate market is expected to grow from the current USD 14 billion to a USD 102 billion in the next 10 years. The main growth thrust is coming due to favorable demographics, increasing purchasing power, existence of customer friendly banks & housing finance companies, professionalism in real estate and favorable reforms initiated by the government to attract global investors.

 

OPPORTUNITIES, THREATS / RISKS AND CONCERNS :

 

Indian real estate has huge potential demand in almost every sector especially commercial, residential,, retail, industrial, hospitality, healthcare etc.

 

Commercial office space requirement is led by the burgeoning outsourcing and Information Technology Industry. The leaders of the IT/ITES world have set up or are setting up their centers in India. Estimated demand from IT/ITES sector alone is expected to be 150 million sq.ft. of space across the major cities by 2010.

 

In residential sector there is housing shortage of 19.4 million units out of which 6.7 million are in urban India.

 

The increase in purchasing power and exposure to organized retail formats has redefined the consumption pattern. As a result the country has experienced mushrooming of retail projects across the cities.

 

The aforementioned developments in real estate market offers the Company tremendous opportunities in terms of

developing projects specifically catering to the demands of commercial, residential and retail sector. The Company focuses in these growing markets and is aggressively pursuing projects in Chennai, Bangalore and Hyderabad.

 

Driven by positive growth in the economy, real estate in India is growing. The year 2006 started on a promising note when the Government of India opened the construction and development sector in February 2006, and allowed 100 per cent foreign direct investment (EDI) under the 'automatic route1 in order to spur investment in the vital infrastructure sector.

 

The Company is in negotiations with various foreign investors and developers for developing projects on joint venture basis.

 

Already the Company has tied up with US based investors for joint development of a residential project in Hyderabad.

 

Inspite of various positive aspects, the main concerns of the real estate industry are existence of Urban Land Ceiling act in some states like Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh, higher stamp duties, increase in interest rates of housing finance by banks, which are some deterrents for real estate development.

 

Also absence of clear titles to property in some cases, lack of corporatization, hinders organized dealings and smooth transfer of titles. Increasing cost / shortage of key construction materials like cement, steel etc , shortage of skilled labour etc also hinders the project plans and timely execution of the projects.

 

FUTURE OUTLOOK :

 

The infrastructure and real estate markets look very positive with increased investments "and construction activities happening in commercial, residential and retail sectors.

 

Coupled with flow of large investments (domestic and foreign) into property development market and huge demand for residential and commercial properties the overall market conditions are conducive for considerable growth in future.

 

SEGMENT WISE PERFORMANCE :

 

The Company is engaged in construction and development of commercial and residential properties in metropolitan and Tier II cities. The operations of Company can be categorized under one segment i,e construction of commercial and residential properties. The Company has already embarked on development of commercial properties, shopping malls, IT Parks, residential townships etc.

 

The Company focuses on quality control in its operations and projects. The Company has already obtained ISO 9001:2000 Quality Certification. Adhering to quality norms and standards will help minimizing risks and improve the efficiency of operations.
