Part 1. Overview of the Indian real estate market

1.1. Definition and Characteristics of the Indian Real Estate Market

Real estate activity is the activity of organizing and making transactions with residential and non-residential premises, structures, buildings, structures, land plots and rights to them and is carried out by agreement with the person concerned or by his power of attorney. At the same time, the real estate agency can carry out actions on its own behalf, on behalf of the client and at his expense. 

Directions of real estate activity: 
- intermediary activities in transactions with real estate or rights to it between third parties; 
- activities for the provision of consulting services;
- services for studying the conjuncture of the real estate market;
- other reimbursable services that accompany the purchase and sale, rental of real estate; 
- activity on the organization of trade in real estate; 
- activities of the attorney;

The situation in the market of real estate services is not stable, due to the influence of various macro and micro factors. Consider the crisis of 2015-2017. in the real estate services market, the main reasons for which were:
- the tense political situation in the world in relation to India and the imposition of sanctions;
- the growth of the dollar and the euro;
- rising prices for consumer goods;
- Decrease in real disposable incomes of the population and, in connection with this, a decrease in demand for real estate. 
- the growing supply of real estate on the market due to the high pace of construction and commissioning of residential buildings. 
- increase in the supply of commercial real estate due to the closure of organizations, as well as the reduction of points of sale and their optimization by commercial organizations in connection with the economic crisis;
- lower prices per m2 of real estate depending on the region.

Until 2015 the real estate market in India was actually a seller's market - supply and demand were high, which ensured the growth of prices and incomes. Supply and demand grew evenly, the level of competition in the market was quite low and stable for many years.

...

2.2. Market shares of the largest competitors

3.3. Description of consumer preferences 

Based on a preference survey conducted by Lenstroytrest Group of Companies in March 2019. we can draw the following conclusions about the preferences of consumers in the market for the sale of real estate and real estate services:
1. A small number of apartments per floor and good neighborly relations.
Having lived in high-rise buildings ""anthills"", buyers began to give preference to a more comfortable building density. Buyers have an understanding that the quality and lifestyle that apartment owners receive in low-rise and mid-rise complexes are fundamentally different from the living environment in densely built high-rise buildings. Consumers want to see the sky and trees from their window, and not just the wall of the opposite building. They understand that a small number of apartments on the floor provide a friendly atmosphere - there are few neighbors, everyone knows each other, it is easier to form friendly relations and it is easier to reach compromises in resolving common house issues.

2. The effective area of ​​the apartment without ""extra"" square meters.
The approach of buyers to the choice of housing remains rational - they are not ready to pay for ""extra"", unused square meters. The focus is on a well-planned living space with a minimum number of zones that do not bring benefits to the owners. Euro-format apartments, which include a combined kitchen-living room and small bedrooms, are in great demand. The cost of such an apartment allows you to save on the budget without losing the quality of housing. The layouts are interesting, where rooms for storing things of various sizes are provided - dressing rooms, pantries, apartments on the first floors with cellars. 

3. Developed public spaces as an integral addition to the apartment.
Buyers pay more and more attention to public areas in projects. They want to be able to develop, learn, get new experiences and comfort outside their apartment. Today's client understands: to walk, play sports, play with children, barbecue together with friends in a special place, read in a cozy gazebo, just enjoy life, you need a large landscaped area and enough green areas, places for active and relaxing holidays, playgrounds, bicycle and roller tracks, sports infrastructure. 

4. Apartment as a set of advantages.
Clients consider the purchased real estate as a set of benefits that they can get for their budget - an effective planning solution for an apartment, functional halls and common areas, cozy clean courtyards and high service from the management company, rich intra-quarter infrastructure (social facilities, playgrounds, workouts , areas for quiet rest and walks), security and restriction of access of outsiders to the territory, a sufficient number of parking spaces, commercial infrastructure in the project or in the adjacent territory.

3.4. Price analysis  

Price dynamics for real estate services are primarily influenced by inflationary factors, as well as factors that limit the demand for real estate, such as a decrease in real incomes of the population, demographic trends and amendments to legislation (escrow accounts).
