Despite hopes for recovery, commercial real estate in Europe remains frozen.

📉 Q2 transaction volume dropped 20% YoY, hitting the lowest level since 2011 at €47.8 billion.

💡 What’s happening?

Rising interest rates and tighter lending have scared off major investors.

Institutional players like pension funds and insurers are stepping back.

Office towers and retail properties are now in “zombie” status:

➤ Too unattractive to sell

➤ Too unprofitable to hold long-term

Buyers want major discounts, sellers hold out for better days — resulting in a standoff that has stalled the entire market.

📌 Even with potential rate cuts on the horizon, analysts warn a full recovery could take years. Until then, investors are watching, waiting… and hedging.

Will distressed deals finally bring the market back to life — or are we entering a longer stagnation phase?

The Supreme Court of India has upheld Telangana’s domicile rules for admissions to medical and dental colleges under the State quota. The ruling confirms that only students who have studied for the last four years up to Class 12 in Telangana are eligible for state quota seats in MBBS and BDS courses.

A bench led by Chief Justice B.R. Gavai and Justice K. Vinod Chandran allowed the appeal filed by the Telangana government, affirming the Telangana Medical and Dental Colleges Admission Rules, 2017, as amended in 2024. These rules had been challenged in court after previous orders raised questions about eligibility for students who lived outside the state for some period but met other criteria.

The Telangana High Court had earlier observed that permanent residents of the State could not be denied admission benefits solely because they had spent time outside Telangana. However, the Supreme Court clarified and reinforced that the four-year study requirement is valid for state quota admissions.

Senior advocate Abhishek Singhvi and lawyer Sravan Kumar Karnam represented the Telangana government in the proceedings. The court’s verdict provides clarity for students seeking admission to medical and dental programs in the State, ensuring that domicile rules will continue to apply under the state quota system.

The Medical Counselling Committee (MCC) has announced the revised schedule for NEET UG 2025 Round 2 Counselling, giving aspiring medical and dental students a second opportunity to secure their seats in government, deemed, and central universities across India. This round of counselling ensures that candidates who missed the first round or are seeking better college preferences get a fair chance to participate in the admissions process.

The counselling process is designed to be transparent and merit-based, following the NEET UG 2025 rank list. Eligible candidates can register online and select their preferred colleges and courses. The MCC has made provisions to help students modify their choices and preferences to maximize their chances of securing a seat in top medical institutions.

Importance of Round 2 Counselling

Round 2 of NEET UG counselling is crucial for students who could not secure a seat in the first round or wish to upgrade their allotment to a more preferred college or course. The MCC has streamlined the process to ensure clarity and transparency, making it easier for candidates to navigate the online counselling system. Allotted seats are based strictly on merit and preferences filled by the candidates.

Final Allotments and Opportunities

Following the completion of Round 2, the MCC will release the seat allotment results, after which students can join their allotted colleges. For those who remain unallotted, subsequent rounds and stray vacancy rounds provide additional opportunities to secure admission. The entire counselling system is structured to ensure that every eligible NEET UG 2025 candidate has a fair chance to pursue a career in medicine or dentistry.
