All-India residential real estate sales across major cities in India increased 86 per cent on-year to 186 mn sq. ft in the first quarter of current financial year, as compared fo 101 mn sq. ft sale in same period last year that was impacted by the second wave of COVID-19, with all regions firing up in a secular way.

"We note that 1QFY23 with sales of 186 mn sq. ft registered as the fourth consecutive quarter of sales above 150 mn sq. ft, signalling strong underlying demand," report said.

A combination of improving sales for the real estate sector at large, market share gains for organised developers and rising real estate prices augur well for listed real estate developers.
