Builders & developers have finished works for approximately 37,000 units this year, according to property consultant firm Anarock, for the research conducted by Anarock, only projects that were launched in India’s top 7 cities before or during 2014 were considered.

According to the data collected by Anarock group, approximately 4.9 lakh residential units worth ₹4, 49,127 crores have been suspended in various phases of construction across India’s top 7 cities. At the end of last year, real-estate markets of these top cities in the country had nearly 5.2 lakh units worth more than ₹4.85 crores suspended during construction & faced with lengthy delays in construction. Developers meanwhile are still committed to completing the projects & are focusing on capitalizing the demand for ready-to-possess homes. The data indicated that 37,000 incomplete units were finally completed in the first 5 months of this year (January – May 2022).

Prashant Thakur, Senior Director & Head -Research at Anarock said “it is notable is that they are maintaining momentum despite considerable headwinds from increased input costs, which have gone through the roof in the last 5 months. The fact that housing demand has remained strong in last two years obviously is a plus point.” State-owned NBCC, SWAMIH & several large developers have taken over stuck projects/delayed inventories and are completing pending works so that the incomplete units can be sold/handed-over.
