Consumer Guide to Property Purchase

Developers and buyers are two sides of the same coin. However, in the Indian markets, for various reasons pertaining to lack of regulation, structured market practices, mandatory statistical back-up etc, the positions have very often not been symbiotic. However, the consumer gets the real estate products because of the developer and vice-versa. So what can CII Real estate, an industry body do to bridge this gap? We thought deeply and decided that mandatory or otherwise, the first step towards bridging this gap was to make more information available to consumers to serve as a guide during the most important and probably the most expensive buy of your life. This document is a step in this direction. Read this document that is backed by real-time information gathered by our members from different segments of the real estate space. These are online annexures that add depth to the printed document you have received. We would welcome feedback and queries. These would be answered by our industry experts to the best of our abilities. Together we can make a difference.

The Partnership Summit 2011 - Theme Paper

The travails of the global economy appear to be still not behind us, despite gradual recovery during 2010 from the worst global economic conditions since World War II. Continued fiscal and debt burdens vitiate the recovery process, imparting a degree of fragility and uncertainty to global economic conditions. The world needs a new source of growth and stability, and India, a rapidly growing economy with strong internal demand, offers a new opportunity. India remained relatively untrammeled by the developments in the Eurozone and reverted to close to 9% GDP growth rates in 2010. Growth was broad-based across all sectors, including agriculture, manufacturing and services. Public commitment to calibrated exit from expansionary fiscal policy and continued corporate and household confidence have helped sustain a virtuous growth cycle. The resurgence of the rural economy and intensified infrastructure mission further strengthened the foundations for medium-term growth propensities.
