ABSTRACT

In India, many people's sense of pride financial security comes from the ownership of real estate. Every human being has the innate desire or fundamental need to own some land build a home for themselves. In comparison to other developing countries, India has a comparatively greater housing need. There is increased need for a study of the real estate sector, including its financial and marketing performance in relation to buyers and sellers. The home is an important part of a family's spending and saving habits, as well as their asset base. For billions of Indians, buying a home is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The growth of the real estate sector depends on the findings of this study. This study contributes significantly to real estate market forecasting. In this study, we take a close look at a number of important factors that have a bearing on the real estate industry (e.g. other major financial market Major Economic indicators). The current study tried to fill that void by investigating the booming but under-researched real estate market in India.

INTRODUCTION

Development of a nation is dependent on the country's economic situation. GDP is the most important measure of the country's economic progress, as it reflects the combined performance of the country's various sectors and industries. As a result, the nation's growth should be supported and stabilized by the improvement of the specific industry. Good infrastructure development also attracts more industry to the country, which includes better housing facilities, commercial & production space, and other public infrastructure facilities. The development and modernization of the nation's infrastructure relies heavily on real estate. It serves as a growth platform for various industries. In terms of employment & market expansion, the industry draws in more people. More housing & infrastructure are needed to meet industry's growing demand for workers. In addition, India has the second-largest population in the world. The infrastructure must be developed to meet the rising population's needs. As a result, the real estate market is able to grow and develop. India's real estate market is experiencing volatility due to a variety of factors, including the expansion of the economy, increase in bubble trading in the market. One of the reasons this sector is so volatile is because more and more foreign capital is being invested in it. Additionally, foreign capital fuels the real estate boom in India, bringing liquidity and an open market to the country. It is difficult to anticipate the price level of the real-estate market in certain conditions of intense competition, resulting in market participants' scepticism. Demonetization of the Indian economic and RERA's new law for real estate acquisition & possession are also likely to stabilise the price of real estate and are as important as market fundamental studies. As some investment-specific factors influence the investment decision in the real estate sector, which in turn influences the investment pattern of the real estate sector. Additionally, it has a direct impact on the segment's demand, which is critical to the development of the real estate market & nation's overall economic development. Our nation's development will be greatly influenced by this study, as we all know that the development of the nation's infrastructure facilities will lead to that nation's development.

EXPLORING REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS

Real estate has the distinct advantage of generating aggregate returns that are both wage & capital growth-oriented. In this way, real estate is like a coupon-paying bond in that it provides a regular, predictable flow of income, & it is also like a stock in that its value fluctuates. As with all securities in which you are long, you want the price to rise more frequently than it should fall. Rent payments received from tenants are directly related to the amount of money Real Estate generates for its owners, less operating expenses and active mortgage/financing payments. In light of this, you

operating costs with the rents collected from new tenants. The quality of the renting market, i.e., free market activity for space like the space you are trying to rent, is critical to your ability to keep the building full. To maintain a full building in a weak rental market, you would have to charge fewer leases than in a strong renting market. Sadly, lower rents lead to lower salary returns. It is possible to limit the rate of increase in the value of a property's appreciation by having it evaluated. While we discuss the evaluation process positive capital return if the appraiser believes that the value of your properties would increase after sale. The implementation of the investment deals on show has a direct bearing on capital returns so the appraiser bases values on prior transactions. The free market activity of investment items has a considerable impact on the venture deals showcase. The majority of the volatility in Real Estate returns can be attributed to the capital appreciation segment. The return on capital tends to fluctuate more than the return on salary. Somewhere in the middle, the volatility of aggregate returns can be found.

GLOBALIZATION OF REAL ESTATE

Regarding worldwide Real Estate investment, the world is to be sure winding up "level" (Friedman, 2005). Hindrances to worldwide Real Estate investment keep on coming down. Financial specialists around the globe are thinking all around and have turned out to be all the more ready and even anxious to possess outside resources. International supervisors consciously share real estate best practises from various countries with other countries. Despite this, a lot of real estate remains close by due to the stark differences in local conditions. Prior to deconstructing the global capital drivers, it is crucial to appreciate the existing trends in global Real Estate capital streams. Capital streams have consistently increased in recent years (Jones LangLaSalle, 2008). The main five nations by share – the U.S., Japan, Germany, the U.K. what's more, France – include more than 55% of the aggregate offer of worldwide Real Estate (Pramerica, 2009). In spite of those numbers, worldwide business Real Estate universe has been winding up less thought after some time. Pramerica arrives at this conclusion in light of its 2014 examination, where, at the time, the top five countries made up over 70% of the global real estate market. Similar trends may be seen in the BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India, & China) country offer, which has been growing in recent years. The territorial distribution of global real estate is predicted to alter significantly over the next two decades, with Asia Pacific serving as the region's main

Figure 1: Regional Distribution of Real Estate Over Time

Figure 2: Global Distribution of Real Estate Over time

Similar to the study conducted by Deloitte in 2008, Pramerica's inquiry makes the assumption that the primary motivation for the change is the creation of faster-growing nations than developed ones. Moreover, as capital markets in developing countries change, it becomes increasingly easier for foreign capital to flow into these countries. Real Estate investment has unmistakably turned into a global attempt as of late. What are the primary elements driving globalization of Real Estate? The variables are (ING Clarion, 2008):

  • Increase diversification;
  • Earn higher returns;
  • Expanded real estate universe; and

 Inflation hedging.

Figure 3: Global Capital Drivers

The nature & origin of global venture streams are significantly impacted by these factors. Financial experts may decide to reprioritize their allocations to any particular global market if any of the components are absent. These factors can also shed light on how real estate cycles in different nations may influence foreign direct investments. According to a report distributed by Scotia bank dated September 14, 2015:

  • Among the worldwide property markets followed, the quantity of nations announcing declining normal genuine costs on a year-over-year premise dwarfed those detailing cost increments by more than two to one.
  • Weak shopper certainty, high joblessness and tight credit conditions keep on weighing vigorously on lodging interest and valuing.
  • Housing markets stay weakest in Europe, where sharp monetary gravity, rising joblessness and money related division strains are developing recessionary conditions.
  • In European nations that are fiscally solid, there were somewhere in the range of provisional indications of change.
  • The U.S. lodging market is hinting at expanding recuperation.
  • U.S. property holder moderateness, rising rental expenses and reinforcing family unit arrangement are adding to the pickup in deals. Lower stock levels and a falling offer of bothered property deals additionally have added to the adjustment in costs, however noteworthy contrasts in nearby economic situations endure.
  • An expanding number of urban communities in China are seeing recharged home value appreciation. This is being bolstered by a facilitating in fiscal conditions.

population grows, & each family desires to have their own home. Real estate has a bright future & probable to persist steadily. Prospects of Residential Real Estate - There has been an increase in the number of people working in India, as well as an increase in those who have moved into the higher-earning brackets. People now have more money to spend on whatever they want, whether it's buying a house or fulfilling some other need. Economically active, a great segment of the population earns well above average wages. CRIS INFAC estimates that in 2005, 28% of the population was under the age of 30, and this percentage is predictable to grow to 31% by 2025. Despite the availability of rented housing, young public favor to live in their own homes. There may be a lack of rental properties available, & rents for those that are available are extremely high. People with little extra cash are increasingly interested in making an investment in real estate. The average person's typical of living is rising, and customers have easy access to loans as well. Urbanization is a current issue in India. Increasing numbers of rural residents are moving to the city in search of better employment & earning opportunities. Another motivation for such emigration is the desire for a superior standard of living and educational opportunities. According to CRIS INFAC, India's urban population has grown at a CAGR of 2.6 percent over the precedent 5 years, which means that more people will need a place to live. Prospects of Commercial/Retail Real Estate - Previously, commercial cities like Delhi & Mumbai were considered the best places to do business, but over the last few decades, other metro areas have emerged as viable alternatives. As a result, a large number of residents of Delhi & Mumbai have relocated to other cities in the region in search of work. Demand for commercial space is concentrated in Tier 2 cities, where more IT/ITES companies plan to open shop. Traditional businesses are well-established in Delhi and Mumbai, but the cost of living is prohibitive for the average person, making these two cities mature destinations. The high rental and property costs in Delhi & Mumbai meant that foreign organisations could not afford to rent or buy the space they needed, so they moved to the suburbs, which met all of their needs. Tier-II cities have more human capital, higher-quality real estate space, and a more expansive and well-developed infrastructure than smaller cities. This is a popular place for investor to set up shop. Well-developed cities like Pune, Chennai, & Hyderabad have a thriving economy, good public services, and plenty of available real estate. There are still a huge number of empty spaces in these areas. Because of IT/ITES sectors, commercial growths in these sectors have been

are now being considered as hot spots for commercial real estate investment alongside Tier-II cities.

CHALLENGES FACING INDIAN REAL ESTATE SECTOR

Moreover, the sector is experiencing growth & expected to overcome some of the challenges it is currently facing in the near future:

  • Developers of real estate may not be able to adapt to a new market because they are used to operating in their own. The developer operating in a particular state must adhere to the rules & regulations of that state in classify to acquire land registrations & approvals from the authorities. Such variations in state regulations annoy developers, who prefer to avoid the hassle of adhering to multiple sets of rules & regulations. There are only a handful of developers in India today who can claim to be PAN India.
  • In India, the real estate market is dispersed and uncoordinated in nature. A large majority of people view real estate developers as criminals who are breaking the law. Small developers who specialise in single-family homes make up a significant portion of the real estate market. These developers may not disclose important terms and conditions of a property upfront and may even try to conceal them.
  • Rather than getting to know their customers, developers simply build the project and sell it to them, without even considering their basic needs. Customers may want additional amenities, such as nearby schools, hospitals, or markets, but the developer may not be able to meet those needs.
  • Real estate developers estimate construction costs in advance and use those estimates to determine the sale price & disclose it in the market, as well as to set the price. When raw material prices rise at a steady pace, developers face a difficult situation. According to reports, raw material costs have risen by 15% in the last two years, making it difficult for developers to maintain their profit margins.
  • Since people can now easily obtain housing loans, the Indian real estate market is growing. Banks are luring customers in with low interest rates, but in the long run they will charge them exorbitant fees.

GOVERNMENT POLICIES OF REALTY SECTOR

The real estate sector is not considered as Industry; still this sector is second largest after Agriculture in India. The sector is growing with no leaps and bounds easily secure himself from any money laundering crime. The huge amount of money is involved in this sector and the customers do rely on mercy of developers who blocks the customer's hard-earned money for long time and may not deliver what actually they have been promised earlier. In fact, there are certain fraudsters too active in this sector who befools the customers and run away with home dreamer's life time earned money. All this happens because there is no specific government rule, law or policy implemented and nor there is any authority to whom such complaints can be lodged. The absence of real estate law and authority is affecting only customers. The sincere developers are equally affected by absence of law and authority, because the developers are also harassed by the government officials in the name of approvals and other formalities and there is no such authority where developer can make complaints about their issues and they have to bear with whatever the situation going on. The developers face problems in accumulating funds because the real estate sector has not received the industry status due to which no financial institution is ready to lend the money to developers.

LITERATURE REVIEW

Dallas Rogers and Sin Yee Koh (2017) In scholarly, policy, and public discussions, foreign investment in residential real estate—particularly by newly wealthy and middle-class investors—is once again becoming a major political concern. On the one hand, overseas individual and institutional investors looking to diversify their investment portfolios are turning to global real estate as an asset class. However, a variety of intergenerational migration and education initiatives might potentially be drawing in foreign capital. The public's and government's reactions to the most recent example of international real estate investment have been diverse. These range from pro-foreign investment arguments that are mostly based on geopolitical economic considerations to anti-foreign investment arguments that defend the local housing market and lessen public dissent. The six papers in this special issue on the globalization of real estate offer a wide range of empirical case studies from Canada, Hong Kong, Singapore, Russia, Australia, and Korea, all set against the backdrop of this shifting global landscape. The four methodological challenges— investor cohorts and property kinds, regulatory contexts, geopolitics, and regional disparities and Linneman (2006) The increasingly global nature of the supply chain is reflected in consumption patterns as well as in import and export flows. The International Iron and Steel Institute, for example, reports a broad shift in relative levels of steel consumption between China and the United States, Data also show that the global competition for limited key resources and materials has coincided with sharp increases in the price of some building materials. However, it is possible that the supply crunch, at least for some of the commodities, is temporary, and that the combination of efficient global allocations of plants, technological change, and scale economies will boost globalizing supply and help meet the global growth in demand. Discussion with real estatedevelopers as well as a presentation on the real estate supply chain suggest that the proportion of inputs whose prices are rising quickly on the global markets constitute a relatively small share of the total inputs used in the real estate sector (perhaps as low as 5 percent, based on an estimate from the US Economic Census), and that the key costs are labor costs. The effect is likely to be different in the emerging economies where the proportion of labor costs is lower and that of inputs higher. Manuel B. Aalbers (2019) The urbanism has been transformed into a (quasi-)monetary asset – 'unitized' & liquid effect of a variety of regulatory & socio-technical changes and constructions, which geographers are now studying at the connection of financial & urban geography. Rental housing is extremely affected by the financialization of real estate, which is not limited to the rise in home mortgage debt, mortgage securitization, & international administration market investment. Private equity, hedge funds, & REITs are increasingly purchasing large portfolios of marginal social rented housing, or housing associations are increasingly employing derivatives or other financial instruments. The most recent findings in financial, real estate, and housing research are summarised in this document. Bardhan et al. (2008) use a comprehensive dataset spanning from 1995 to 2002 that includes 946 businesses from more than 16 nations. The authors demonstrate a negative relationship between openness and the returns of publicly traded real estate vehicles that holds true even after adjusting for a number of variables, including the global and national CAPM, Fama-French factors, and a number of other company- and country-specific effects. According to their theory, there will be less excess returns for real estate vehicles Daniel Sanfelici et al. (2018) The paper focuses on the rapid growth of REITs in Brazil & examines how financializing policy instruments connect financial markets with the urban built environment. Research on REITs, as well as questions about financial market capital & urban dynamics, is examined. We conclude that financial actors play a significant role in the design, enhancement, and execution of this policy instrument because of their active involvement. Basanta Kumar et al. (2018) Real Estate India Act, 2016, a recently enacted economic reform measure for the real estate sector, is the subject of this paper. According to the Act and Union Budget 2016, FDI is expected to increase in India, or its impact on the global economy is examined in this paper. Consumer forums, exploratory reports by national agencies & court decisions are among the secondary sources used in the study. Real estate companies & industry associations are also included. Facebook & personal interaction with stakeholders have been used to conduct a sample survey on the Act's implications. Indian RES was unregulated before the way of the Act that has several provisions aimed at protecting the interests of consumers by tightening the fraudulent practises of promoters/developers to protect the public interest. Stakeholders are optimistic, but cautious. FDI inflows have been influenced by government budgetary & fiscal support for infrastructure development. Act's impact on the economy means that it is difficult to draw conclusions. Even so, the Supreme Court of India has punished a promoter for his involvement in the project. Foreign investors may see India as a safe haven because of the new regulations on the Indian RES. In this regard, this paper comes at a good time and may be capable to make a difference. Ajinkya Bhagwat et al. (2018) The Mahatma Gandhi Series of 500 & 1,000 rupee banknotes were demonetized by the Indian government on November 8, 2016. When we first started looking into the short- & medium-term result on the economy that such a shock is expected to have, we used numerous articles. Next, a hypothesis was developed outlining the potential consequences of demonetization on a variety of variables. More than 50 people answered a survey that was put together & outcome were recorded. There was a reliability test conducted to determine how much reliance was placed on the data. Factor analysis and regression were used to examine the data. Demonetization did not have a major impact on the real estate sector

expansion of the corporate environment and the resulting demand for office space, as well as urban & semi-urban accommodations, is a natural complement to the growth of this industry. All 14 major region of the economy are affected by the construction industry, which is ranked third. Sales and overall growth in the Indian real estate industry have slowed significantly in recent years. The sector was clearly pointing toward a gradual, but steady, recovery through a slew of measures. The unorganised nature of the production & high cash component of transactions in the secondary housing market & land deals, the Indian property sector has long been a haven for illicit funds. Dallas Rogers et al. (2017) Academic, policy, & public debates on foreign investment in housing real estate are once again focusing on new middle-class & super- rich investors. Foreign individuals and institutions are increasingly turning to global real estate as a means of diversifying their holdings. Foreign investors may, however, be spurred on by a variety of intergenerational migration & education initiatives. Governments and the general public have reacted in different ways to the most recent manifestation of global real estate investment. While some favour foreign investment for the sake of diversifying the economy, others are anti-foreign investment in an effort to quell local unrest & protect the local housing market, to name just a few. Regulatory frameworks, geopolitics, investor cohorts & property types, and spatial differences & temporal trajectories are just a few of the many methodological concern that have been elevate in the various articles reviewed in this editorial. Narendra Verma et al. (2017) In today's world, India's economy is growing at a second-rate pace, & country's real estate marketplace is one of its most well-known segments. It is predicted that the real estate market will reach $180 billion in value by the year 2020. Additionally, the Indian government is interested in turning this sector's illicit funds into legal tender by improving the business climate. It was for this reason that, in addition to passing the Real Estate Act, 2016, the government also introduced the Benami Transactions Amendment Act, 2016, a revised version of the Benami Transactions Act, 1988. (BTP Amendment Act). The demonetization of the country's 1000- and 500-rupee notes is the most recent step in this direction. Demonetization had a considerable collision on the real estate market, which has historically had a high level of black money & cash transactions. The derived real estate market was directly impacted, while the primary market was largely subject of the current paper. On the other hand, it shows that the same business groups are still facing difficulties after various legal reforms. The study is a descriptive one that relies on facts and data retrieved from the websites of the respective organisations. Philosophically, all relevant facts & data have been analysed to determine whether or not India's current real estate business practises can be transformed. Research shows that RERA & BTP Amendment Act wiped out any chance that India's real estate business would be derailed, & recent demonetization move has put this train back in motion, allowing it to be referred to as "real" in the truest sense.

CONCLUSION

This study attempted to find out the desirability and the role of real estate in a multi-asset portfolio in the Indian context. Real estate and stock market act as the transmission vehicles in the monetary policy transmission mechanism, through which monetary policies are transmitted to the output growth variables which are inflation and GDP. This characteristic makes them more attractive for the researchers and policymakers. The quantity along with the quality of investments in the ―real estate market‖ (e.g. the quantity and the quality of new houses, apartment buildings and industrial units), tends to affect the financial development of the whole economy. REITs in India are gearing up, research is suggested for the comparison of ―direct and indirect real estate investment‖ in India. REITs in India is in its formative stage, event study showing the effect of securitisation of the asset class is

suggested.
