The real estate sector, which has been languishing for some time, appears to have found its feet with focus on affordable housing and this may reflect in the June quarter results of the companies. The move has led to higher sales for many companies, but on the flip side, it has also impacted the margins negatively. The reason being that the mid-segment housing is a high volume, low margin business.
The June quarter results, therefore, may be a tad better on a quarter-on-quarter basis. But much lower than those reported in the corresponding period of the previous year. The average of estimates of ET Intelligence Group and eight brokerage houses shows that the overall industry sales are expected to decline 30% on a year-onyear (YoY) basis. On a quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) basis, industry sales would grow at an average 30%.
It may also be understood that only the residential market has seen a recovery, while the commercial and retail segments are still under stress.
