Stable RBI Policy Rates: Allowing Constant Real Estate Growth

The Reserve Bank of India’s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC), which began its meeting on Wednesday, has maintained the repo rate at 6.5 percent for the eighth consecutive time. This marks the first MPC meeting since the Lok Sabha election results were announced. Realtors have shared their views on this decision.

Pradeep Aggarwal, Founder & Chairman, of Signature Global (India) Ltd said, “We welcome the apex bank’s strategic move to hold rates steady for the eighth consecutive time. This decision reflects a careful balance between addressing high food inflation and maintaining overall economic stability, with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) staying within the target range. However, economists anticipate that if inflation continues to decline, we might see rate cuts of 25-50 basis points in the second half of the fiscal year. Such reductions in interest rates could be introduced in future policy reviews.

If these rate cuts materialize, they could significantly boost the real estate sector, which is already experiencing strong demand from end-users. Lower interest rates would make borrowing cheaper, encouraging more people to invest in property and stimulating further growth in the housing market. This trend is particularly expected to remain robust over the coming years in cities like Gurugram, which are witnessing substantial infrastructure development. Gurugram’s rapid urbanization and infrastructure projects, such as new highways, metro extensions, and improved public amenities, are making it an attractive destination for homebuyers and investors.

Manoj Gaur, President of CREDAI NCR and CMD Gaurs Group said, “Even though a marginal reduction in the repo rate would have further raised the real estate sector’s spirit, we welcome RBI’s announcement not to change the interest rate. One area of concern is the affordable housing segment, which requires an intervention. Overall, this is a welcome decision, and the real estate market, with an all-time low unsold stock and experiencing an all-time boom, welcomes this move. The decision supports the growth and stability of the sector.

Amit Modi, Director County Group States, The RBI’s decision to keep the repo rate unchanged at 6.50% is a welcome step. This move is beneficial for both developers and potential buyers interested in investing in this sector. It will provide them relief in terms of loan interest rates, along with additional benefits from the government’s measures to balance inflation. The government is considerate of buyers’ sentiments and expectations, and its favorable decisions for this sector are promoting its growth.

Mohit Goel, Managing Director of Omaxe Group said “By maintaining the repo rate at 6.50% for the eighth consecutive time, the RBI has again relieved both buyers and developers. The sector is experiencing remarkable growth, with increased interest in mid, premium, and luxury housing segments. Stable loan rates will benefit prospective buyers and sustain public confidence in the authorities. We expect this positive step to keep the real estate sector on an upward trajectory, benefiting both buyers and developers.”

Kushagr Ansal, Director of Ansal Housing, believes the RBI’s decision to maintain the repo rate will positively impact the housing market. Despite rising housing costs, the unchanged home loan rates offer some relief to prospective buyers. As a result, stable interest rates benefit both buyers and developers, fostering increased consumer confidence and investment in the sector. The RBI’s decision is expected to support the launch of new projects and the expansion of developments in emerging areas of interest.

Nayan Raheja from Raheja Developers said, “The RBI’s decision to keep the repo rate unchanged at 6.5% for the eighth time benefits the real estate sector in several ways including Consumer Confidence. Stability in interest rates boosts confidence, making home purchases more attractive and affordable. Real estate becomes a more appealing investment compared to volatile options, attracting both domestic and foreign investors. Predictable loan costs leave consumers with more disposable income, driving demand for housing. Overall, stable repo rates support growth, affordability, and investment in the real estate sector.

Harinder Singh Hora, Founder Chairman, Reach Group said, “These are great times both for the economy and the real estate sector including the commercial segment. The decision by RBI to keep the repo rate unchanged will bring cheers to the market. World sees immense possibilities in India and the growth trajectory is high. The GDP numbers are also expected to get better and the real estate share in the GDP percentage is rising. Altogether, RBI’s decision will boost real estate investments.”

This will also boost the affordable housing segment, which is looking for some relief.”

Sanchit Bhutani, MD, Group 108 said, “The RBI has once again taken a commendable step by keeping the repo rate steady for the eighth consecutive time. A stable repo rate provides confidence for investors and home buyers. This stability directly impacts the growth of real estate sector, which in turn makes a significant contribution to India’s GDP and future growth prospects.”

As per Yash Miglani, MD Migsun Group, “The RBI’s decision to keep the repo rate stable is a balancing act between controlling inflation and promoting economic development. Amidst reduced inflation and strong GDP forecasts, swiftly aligning with the real estate sector is imperative. Embracing innovation, stability, and strategies will be key to unlocking new opportunities for growth in the sector through emerging scenarios.”

Pawan Sharma, MD, Trisol RED said, “The decision to maintain the repo rate at 6.5% is expected to bring about positive growth in the housing market. Despite the increasing cost of housing, unchanged home loan rates provide some relief to potential homebuyers. Consequently, stable interest rates benefit buyers and developers, fostering confidence and investment in the sector. The RBI’s decision is poised to encourage the commencement of new projects and the expansion of development in emerging sectors.

Singh, Co-Chair of CII’s NR Committee on Real Estate, CEO of Residential at Bhartiya Urban, and Author said, “The RBI’s decision to maintain the repo rate at 6.50% is a strategically sound move that reinforces stability and confidence in the real estate market. This policy stance not only sustains the current growth trajectory but also enhances affordability for potential homebuyers and commercial real estate investors. By keeping interest rates steady, the RBI ensures that financial burdens on borrowers remain manageable, thereby encouraging more investments and purchases. This is expected to drive positive demand, bolster market sentiment, and support long-term growth in the sector.”

As per Sanjay Sharma, Director of SKA Group, stated that the RBI’s decision to maintain the repo rate at 6.50% for the eighth consecutive time is a positive step towards reducing the financial burden on potential buyers. This decision is a significant incentive for potential buyers in the commercial sector to proceed with their property purchases. Certainly, the RBI’s decision will accelerate affordable and mid-range commercial projects.

Rajjath Goel, Managing Director, MRG Group said, “The Reserve Bank has reassured the real estate industry by maintaining stability in repo rates at 6.50% for the eighth consecutive time, bringing relief to potential buyers. With no adjustments made for over a year, buyers can proceed with their investments without facing the pressure of rising loan interest rates. This decision not only alleviates financial concerns but also demonstrates the authorities’ commitment to controlling inflation. We commend this prudent move and its positive impact on the market.”

Neeraj Sharma, MD, Escon Infra Realtor says, “The RBI’s decision to keep the repo rates unchanged at 6.50% for the eighth time is a welcome step.

Indeed, with interest rates not rising, investor confidence will increase, and there will be faster growth in residential property demand.”

Hence RBI will be in a weight and watch mode, Also the agencies will give some time to the new government before taking any significant monetary decision. The silver lining is that real estate will continue to clock double-digit growth backed by steep rise in demand. The market will be upbeat in the times to come marked by the increase end user and investor participation.”

With the country’s economy performing exceptionally well, along with good GDP growth and control over inflation, this sector is expected to continue performing well in the future. However, there are concerns about affordable housing and real estate development in Tier 2 and 3 cities. If there were a reduction in repo rates, it would assist real estate developers in realizing their housing aspirations.”

Ankush Kaul, Chief Business Officer at Ambience Group said, “RBI has maintained the repo rate at 6.5 per cent for the last 16 months. This rate has been kept in mind by the real estate sector for a long time. There is a distinct excitement and confidence among potential buyers, which will encourage buyers to invest in both residential and commercial sectors as the festive season approaches.”
