“Land monopoly is not only monopoly, but it is by far the greatest of monopolies; it is a perpetual monopoly, and it is the mother of all other forms of monopoly.”

Said former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill and that’s the sense of power felt by those who hold land. The thinking of Indian developers is no different. They went on a drive to amass huge land banks, only to see themselves in deep trouble when the real estate market slowed. Nonetheless, amidst all the gloom and doom surrounding the sector, they have managed to survive the slowdown. With the successful closure of a number of qualified institutional placements (QIPs), a number of builders have managed to tide over cash flow problems for now. This has turned the tide in favor of the industry.

Besides, the developers have resorted to measures such as selling non-core assets, cutting down prices, reducing apartment sizes, borrowing from banks, and pledging of shares to keep themselves afloat. Thus it seems that there is light at the end of the tunnel for sector, though the length of the tunnel is still not known.
