Oberoi Realty gained 13 per cent on Thursday and was the biggest gainer on an intraday basis, followed by Godrej Properties which was up over 12 per cent.  Meanwhile, DLF and Sobha gained over 8 per cent, each.

Similarly, IB Real Estate, Sunteck, and Prestige each gained by over 5 per cent. Brigade, Pheonix, and Mahindra Life Space gained between 4 and 2 per cent at the market close today.

The market analyst and Tradeswift Director Sandeep Jain explains the triggers on which the realty stocks are banking on. He mentions, the big house demand, lenders slashing home loan rates, and moreover, the real estate is already at lows for many years.

Jain says, realty has become an investment option for many as Gold has become expensive, fixed deposit rates are low, while on the other hand, the demand for houses as well as the stamp duty cut has a huge impact on the realty sector. A need-based investment has come into play, the analyst adds. 

While another market analyst Simi Bhaumik mentions, realty stocks such as Sobha, Oberoi, Godrej Properties were fundamentally strong. These stocks from a longer-term perspective look good, she suggested recommending a buy on dips.
