Management Discussion and Anaiysis Report 2006-07

 

Industry Structure and Developments :

 

The real estate sector in India has assumed growing importance with the liberalization of the economy. The consequent increase in business opportunities and migration of the labour force to towns and cities has, in turn, increased the demand for commercial and housing space, especially rental housing. Developments in the real estate sector are being influenced by the developments in the retail, hospitality and entertainment (e.g. hotels, resorts, multiplexes) industries, community services (e.g. hospitals, schools) and IT and ITES (e.g. call centers) etc. and vice versa as well as owing to the fact that quality real estate development prompts raising of standards of retail, hospitality etc. The size of the Indian real estate sector is estimated to be over US$12 billion (Source: • Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry, 2006).

 

Infrastructure sector is another major component in the construction industry. Currently the Government of India is

putting great emphasis on building and improving the infrastructure. The investment in infrastructure will increase to Rs. 2892000.000 millions in 2008 from Rs. 2655000.000 millions in fiscal 2005 according to estimates by CRIS INFAC.

 

Opportunities, Threats / Risks and Concerns :

 

Opportunities:

 

High growth in the economy, growing contribution of the services sector, changing demographic profile (increasing proportion of young and working population, increasing disposable incomes and urbanisation), rising demand from the technology sector and favourable government policies are expected to drive the demand for real estate in India. Foreign Direct Investment ("FDI") has been recognized as one of the important drivers of economic growth in the country. The Indian Government has taken a number of steps to encourage and facilitate FDI investment and FDI is allowed in many key sectors of the economy, such as manufacturing, services and infrastructure. For real estate sector, 100% FDI is allowed on an automatic basis i.e. without prior approval from the Government of India ("GOI"). These factors have given rise to significant opportunities in the housing, commercial, retail, hospitality, SEZ, townships and infrastructure projects.

 

Key Segments

 

Housing: Aided by population growth and urbanization, the housing construction activity has been on the upswing for the past 5 years, The contribution of the housing sector to India's GDP is a meagre 1% against 3-6% of developing countries. If the economy grows at the rate of 10%, the housing sector has the capacity to grow at 14% and generate 3.2 million new jobs over the next 10 years. (Source: Integrated Databases India Limited). The housing boom is expected to continue, despite a marginal firming up of the interest rate on housing loans. The total estimated floor space area (FSA) was 96 billion sq ft in 2003-04, with an estimated 2.5 billion sq ft added in 2004-05. The new FSA added is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4 per cent over the next 5 years to reach 3 billion sq ft by 2009-10. This would roughly translate into 14 billion sq ft to be added over a period of 5 years. During the same period, the total housing construction investment is estimated at Rs 9,1 76 billion.

 

Commercial space: Commercial construction comprises construction of office space, hotels, hospitals, schools, stadia etc. In India, most of the investment in this segment is driven by office space construction. Within office space construction activity, almost 70-75 per cent of the demand comes from IT/BPO/call centres. The other key demand drivers include banking and financial services, FMCG and telecom. According to CRIS INFAC Construction Review, in the last 4 years, the ITES sector grew at 48 per cent growth and the revenue from ITES is expected to grow at a CAGR of 30 per cent to reach $19.7 billion in 2009^-10. CRIS INFAC, estimates the growth in IT/ITES is likely to translate into construction investments of Rs 148 billion (118 million sq ft) by 2007-08

as compared with investments of Rs 74 billion (61 million sq ft) in the last 3 years.

 

Retail: The increase in disposable incomes, demographic changes (such as the increasing number of working women, who spend more, the rising number of nuclear families and higher income levels within the urban population), the change in the perception of branded products, the growth in retail malls, the entry of international players and the availability of cheap finance will drive the growth in organised retail, resulting in a retail boom of 100+ million sft with construction investments of Rs. 112 billion over the next 5 years (Source: CRIS INFAC Construction Review, Feb 2006)]

 

Hospitality: Hospitality industry is witnessing significant changes in its dynamics with increase in tourists and business travel to India. As per the World Travel and Tourism Council, 2006 (WTTC), India's Travel and Tourism is expected to grow 8.4 % in 2006 and by 8 % per annum, in real terms, between 2007 and 2016. WTTC has also projected India as one of the emerging tourism markets having potential of earning US$24 billion annual foreign exchange through tourism by 2015. With the industry expected to grow at 8- 9% in 2006, the number of business travelers to the country is also likely to increase. (Source: Central Statistical Organisation).

 

SEZs: Special Ecomonic Zones (SEZs) are specifically delineated duty free enclaves deemed to be foreign territories for purposes of Indian custom controls, duties and tariffs. SEZ developers are eligible for tax benefits under Section 80-IA of the Income Tax Act, pursuant to which they are eligible to avail themselves of tax exemptions for a block of 10 years in a 15 year period at the option of the relevant developer. In addition, developers may import/procure goods without paying duty for the development, operation and maintenance of the SEZ.

 

Townships: There is a concerted effort to build urban communities / townships which provide a great opportunity by bringing together all the above mentioned sub-sectors in a well planned and cohesive fashion leading to a sustainable and eco-friendly living conditions. Cushman and Wakefield have noted that there is scope for Rs. 400 township projects over the next five years spread across 30 to 35 cities, each having a population of more than 0.500 millions and that the total project value dedicated to low and middle income housing in the next seven years is estimated at US$40 billion.(Source: "Opportunities for Private Equity Investment in Indian Real Estate".

 

Infrastructure: Apart from the above, a significant portion of infrastructure development is expected to be undertaken through public-private partnerships, thereby increasing the flow of private capital into infrastructure projects. Key areas of infrastructure development include transport, power, telecommunications, ports, pipelines, sanitation, water supply and irrigation. The current rate of infrastructure investment in India, at 3.5% of GDP, is well below the target rate of 8.0% proposed by the Expert Group on Commercialisation of Infrastructure Projects. The Gol has taken various initiatives to encourage this investment, such as capital grants, tax holidays and other fiscal incentives for certain types of projects.

 

Threats/Risks and Concerns:

 

The sector has traditionally been burdened with high transaction costs as a result of stamp duty on transfers of title to property that varies from state to state. Though efforts are being made at the state level to reduce the stamp duties, they continue to be as high as 11% in certain states. Absence of clear titles to property in some cases, high transaction taxes and various real estate regulations have kept a large portion of property transactions out of the formal market. Urban Land Ceiling Act (ULCA) and Rent Control Acts are largely responsible for the artificial scarcity of land, which has resulted in making India one of the more expensive real estate markets in the world. Some of the other regulations that affect the growth in housing construction include, Coastal Regulatory Zone (CRZ) regulations, and property taxes.

 

Future Outlook :

 

The infrastructure and real estate markets witnessed large scale investments and developments happening in Metro and Tier II cities in commercial, residential, retail, hospitality and other sectors. Inspite of the rising interest costs, limited financing from financial institutions and banks, real estate and construction industry have witnessed surge in private equity funding, foreign direct investments by major global players.The Company sees a bright future in all the above markets and is actively pursuing opportunities in hospitality and infrastructure projects apart from its on going commercial, retail and residential projects. The Company is negotiating with foreign investors and major realty funds for having strategic tie-ups for the projects of the Company.

 

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 the 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 and these projects are currently under various stages of execution.
