Fitch Ratings forecasts stable outlook for India’s real estate sector

21 Nov 2017 Evaluate

With developing regulatory landscape, implementation of RERA, improvement in macroeconomic environment and a decline in interest rates, global ratings agency, Fitch Ratings in its latest report forecasted a stable outlook for the Indian real estate. The rating agency also expects unsold inventory to fall from peak level in 2018.

The US-based credit rating agency in its report titled ‘2018 Outlook: Property/South and South East Asia’ said the implementation of the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act of 2016 (RERA), which came into full force on May 01, 2017, would drive consolidation in 2018. Fitch Ratings also said that the implementation of the new law would continue to reduce the pace of new launches as developers focus on completing existing projects. It added that the introduction of GST, while broadly neutral for the sector is shifting demand towards completed properties as they attract lower taxes.

The report stated that these trends will drive consolidation in 2018 - larger and more financially sound developers will survive, while smaller or highly leveraged companies will likely resort to asset sales to shore up liquidity. As per the report, the unsold inventory for a sample of seven large developers increased to Rs 668 billion at the end of FY17 from Rs 631 billion at the end of FY16.
