Markets LIVE - Realty Sector's reality: What experts think?
A surge in post-pandemic pent-up demand helped India's property market overcome risks from rising interest rates this year but the dream run might face hurdles from global headwinds in 2023.
Any moderation in growth will mark a premature end to what industry watchers believe to be the start of a "long-term upcycle" in the Indian real estate sector.
The optimism emanates from record housing sales this year, surpassing the pre-COVID 2019 numbers and the previous high of 2014.
"2022 proved to be a successful year for the residential real estate market as momentum of sales and consolidation of players continued," property consultant Anarock's Chairman Anuj Puri said.
Fundamentally, the market is much more mature and stable than it was prior to the pandemic, he told PTI.
Puri said he is "hoping that 2023 calendar year is as vibrant as 2022 for the residential market, provided the headwinds of possible global recession, high inflation and interest rates and Covid resurgence doesn't become a spoilsport."
Realtors' apex body CREDAI's President Harsh Vardhan Patodia said he expects "strong and positive momentum to prevail in the Indian real estate market".
The International Monetary Fund has projected the global economy to shrink by 0.2 per cent in 2023. This would mean investment flows to developing economies from rich nations will slow. Many emerging markets and low-income countries are already facing pressures from a depreciating currency, capital outflows and inflation.

Anil Singhvi Strategy on Nifty, Bank Nifty - Key Support and Resistance Levels
Global market cues remain weak as US markets closed lower than expected, Zee Business Managing Editor Anil Singhvi said while spelling out his strategy on Nifty and Bank Nifty. He said that it will be interesting to see as to what extent Indian markets will be able to digest this loss today which is also a day of monthly expiry. Expect some pressure to trickle down in our markets, he added. Amid negative global markets, positive domestic institutional investors (DIIs), negative foreign institutional investors (FIIs), neutral futures & options (F&O) and neutral sentiment cues, the short-term trend of the Indian stock markets will be positive on Thursday, December 29, 2022.
