Mumbai, one of the most prominent real estate hubs in the country, is expected to be one of the most affected cities, with sales estimated to fall marginally to 13,032 units. This decline is attributed to various factors, including the ongoing pandemic, rising inflation, and increasing interest rates.
The report highlights that the decline in sales is a nationwide trend, with all major cities, including Delhi-NCR, Bengaluru, Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kolkata, and Ahmedabad, expected to witness a slowdown. The real estate industry, which was already struggling to recover from the pandemic-induced slump, is likely to face further challenges in the coming months.
The decline in sales is expected to have a ripple effect on the entire real estate ecosystem, including developers, builders, and allied industries. With reduced sales, developers may be forced to cut prices, which could lead to a decrease in revenue and profitability.
However, industry experts believe that the decline in sales is a temporary phenomenon and that the market will recover once the pandemic subsides and economic conditions improve. In the meantime, developers are focusing on completing ongoing projects and offering attractive schemes to lure buyers.
