The real estate sector has been hit hard due to the COVID-19 outbreak and is facing huge losses. What’s worse is that the situation is expected to worsen. In the face of this problem, the Haryana Zonal chapter of CREDAI has approached the state government and appealed for certain relaxations for the developers. These include waivers and relaxation in rules to ease the situation.
Property sales have fallen drastically as a result of the pandemic. Naturally, people would rarely buy homes during such an outbreak. Moreover, a number of start-ups and smaller firms related to the realty sector are now shut during the lockdown, which is hindering the real estate industry. Inflows from financing sources like the banks and NBFCs are also falling drastically and are expected to become negligible soon. This would once again make the realty sector bounce back into a liquidity crisis.
The realty sector is the second-largest creator of employment in India. The impact that the pandemic would have on the sector unless necessary steps are taken would have a huge negative impact. Moreover, up to 10% of India’s GDP comes from the real estate industry. This would also affect the Indian economy. Along with the industry, the stakeholders would also have to face considerable losses. The finances and the sales have been gravely impacted in the ongoing pandemic. Finances from NBFCs, banks, and other financial institutions will be negligible.
