Real Estate Sector has forward and backward linkages with over 250 different sectors, as well as it ranks 2nd in employee generation after agriculture. This sector also adds up to a significant number in our country’s GDP with 0.78x.
With such data to back up the real estate sector the time is right to explore its complete potential as real estate sector correlation in other large economies like the ones of China, US, UK, Germany and Spain is at least 0.9x.
One of the major factors that have been affecting real estate market has been the large demand and supply mismatch, and our government need to take several real time steps to make sure that this mismatch gets dissolved.
