India's Residential Realty Sector Shifts Focus to Capital Deployment and Annuity Assets
India's residential real estate sector is entering the middle phase of its cycle, shifting focus from debt reduction to capital deployment, project execution, and annuity asset development, according to Nuvama Research. Developers now have stronger balance sheets and liquidity, supported by equity fundraising. While operating cash generation remains steady and industry collections surpassed Rs 1 trillion, cash EBITDA margins declined from 42% to 39% due to fewer launch-stage sales. Increased spending on land acquisition and annuity assets has moderated free cash flow generation.
