Research Report Estimates: Housing Demand to Exceed Supply over the next 5 years by 45%

GROWTH IN POPULATION TO LEAD TO HOUSING DEMAND OF 2.8 MN UNITS ACROSS TOP 8 CITIES IN 5 YRS: C&W
 
You would be well aware of the recent continuous reporting in sections of the media pertaining to the alleged excess supply of housing units in cities across India and the subsequent pilling housing inventory. Much of this reporting is without any accurate scientific analysis.

A recent report by one of the world’s largest global real estate consultancy Cushman & Wakefield (C&W) after conducting a data-driven research and analysis across the major cities in India, has found that housing demand will actually exceed supply by 45 % across top 8 cities in the next 5 years.

The gap between fresh demand and supply is expected to see an incremental expansion as supply will fall short on account of economic, regulatory and political scenario.

While demand for housing units will growproportionate to the rise in population, supply is expected to be less aggressive in the short to medium term. According to Cushman & Wakefield, new regulations like LARR Bill and Real Estate regulatory bill which are expected to come into force in the next few quarters will delay supply.

Additionally, there may also be a rise in construction cost which may affect pricing.

As illustrated below, NCR is expected to witness the highest demand in the country across mid – ranged and high-end segments estimated to be 770,000 units during 2013 – 2017 while the expected cumulative supply in the same period for these segments is expected to be 600,000 (approx.). Therefore in NCR, the gap is expected to be approximately 22 % or 1,70,000 units over the mentioned period.

It is clear that supply will not be able to service the increasing demand resulting in potential for significant price increase across all segments. Now, therefore is perhaps a good time to invest in real estate to get a location of your choice at competitive pricing. At Unitech, we have varied residential housing offerings across segments.
