COVID – 19: EFFECT ON REAL ESTATE SECTOR
As we all know that outbreak of COVID19 in Wuhan and the recent spread in almost all countries has impacted the entire industries and the business sentiment. In India all industries shut down for time being during lockdown and affected by this pandemic diseases. As we know that Real estate is an emotion based sector and in past few days overall market is fluctuating in high frequency. Those who are having habit of investing in a stock market, has switched their portfolio towards real estate, as they feel some restriction as freedom, because mostly investor needs to allow someone else to manage and control of their fund and this situation may create some demand of Real estate properties (residential or commercial) and maybe a good option for buyers to invest in real estate residential and commercial properties.
This is well known that a stock pays dividends but a commercial real estate which has managed with rental support can gives better & stable revenue in the form of rental Incomes. Rented property profits normally remains greater than dividend yields.
The Real Estate Regulation and Development(RERA) Act 2016, provides for 1 year extension in project execution timelines, in case of events beyond the promoter’s control so regulatory risks maybe reduce in case of a short-term disruption.
Real estate sectors request from the Indian government to survive the lockdown, these are- • Asking for tax benefit under the Income tax act •Reduce GST and waive off •Reduce stamp duty for temporary period •RBI should provide banks relaxation in bad-debt norms for few months •One-time restructuring of stressed developers loans •Direct banks to lend more to NBFC
