Transcript Prohibition of Benami Property Transactions Act

Demonetisation and Real
Estate – The Impact
Demonetisation
Rs 500 & 1000 notes not legal tender
• Impact on property buyers:
• No cash component
• Transaction value close to guideline value
• Registrations to take place at transaction value
• Buyer to account for source of funds used for property purchase
• Formal bank finance to become the norm
• Home loan interest rates to drop
Impact on sellers
• Quoted values to be close to guideline values
• Capital Gains Tax paid on entire transaction amount
• Deal to be registered soon after purchase
Primary market – new property
• Formally funded transactions to continue
• Demand from professionals to drive sale along economic corridors
• Builders unlikely to drop prices
• Completely a buyer’s market – negotiate better for car park, fittings
and fixtures
• Banks to chase serious buyers
• Best time for end users to buy ready built property
Secondary Market- resale market
• Cash driven markets like Delhi NCR and parts of Mumbai market slow
• Prices likely to go down by about 10-15% in about 6 months
• Sellers likely to negotiate better rates with end users
• Bank funding available to serious buyers
• Registrations at actual transaction value
• Guideline values to become benchmark values
• Land transactions likely to slow down as cash exits
What will happen to prices
• Primary markets will remain stable with formally financed deals
becoming the norm
• Secondary markets will settle down 10-15% on exit of cash
• Speculative prices out. Land prices expected to drop as formal finance
replaces cash. Less formal finance available for land purchase
• Many buyers hold back hoping for lower values
• Serious buyers to benefit from good negotiations
• Credit Linked Subsidy Schemes to sweeten the deals for those with
less than Rs 50,000/month income for budget housing
Supporting legislations
• GST - Goods and Services Tax, a comprehensive indirect tax, aims at
creating a transparent taxation system. Its enforcement will resonate
in all sectors and real estate will also be impacted
• Prohibition of Benami Property Transactions Act – All property to be
bought in the name of the buyer who funds the deal
• RERA - Consumer, developer, and regulator stands to gain once Real
Estate Regulatory Authority Act is implemented in all the states.
Transparency will ensure that project specific risk is reduced. This will
enhance the buyer- seller relationship positively

Consumer Voices
Builders can not meet their overheads
without sale. No more black money to
meet their deadlines. So obviously they
have to reduce the prices due to
competition and fund crunch or else will
be eliminated. - Prakash
Why is the new 2000
note re-introduced?
what is the rationale
behind it? - Nikesh
The idea of Rs 2000 goes against the
entire cleansing of financial system.
Again the same situation will crop in
few years. Doubt about the real
intention? – VR Ganeshun
The govt’s decision to curb black
money is good. Those hoarding
black money, which affects economy
are the real estate tycoons, big infra
contractors and middle-men who
arranged these deals - Sachin
Oommen
Make all govt office processes
online. Avoid multiple taxation,
delink politicians from public
projects, as they should not
decide on who should execute
project - Karthik
