Adi Godrej says More technology required in Real Estate Sector:

Adi Godrej,chairman of Godrej group said in his latest press conference in Mumbai that country is facing great shortage of labour.He in his conference stressed upon the rapid reduction of labours in cities.The construction industry is in problem now a days due to non availability of labour. According to World Bank report the country will face labour shortage if the growth rate remains to be medium. Incase of high growth the labour shortage may rise upto 55-60 percent. The successful response of national employment guarantee programme has reduced labour migration to cities in search of work. It has resulted into increase of labour cost and less availability.
To tackle with this situation new technology has to be introduced. Most of the real estate company owners believe that along with excellent manpower focus should be on timely execution. Banks have reduced their role making the availability of capital difficult. In the present situation most of the construction companies are forced to take financial aid from other sources. The investors see India as a fluctuating market therefore the capital cost is high. The long time period for approval and illegal functioning has made investors to back out from investing capital in Indian market. According to Anuj Puri the moment this problem gets rectified the capital cost will surely be lowered down.

Hotel companies: Soaring occupancy, room rates to make growth

With increasing real estate prices, hotel companies in India are escalating attendance in tier-II and tier-III cities by budget segments and midmarket.

Low-priced hotels in towns and urban cities will notice an escalation of approximately 50% in the coming four years, consulting and research firm HVS stated in a report. The standard per main cost of mid-market hotels and budget are about Rs 30-50 lakh as compared with Rs 85 lakh to Rs 1 crore for top class and exclusive hotels.

Budget hotels manage and become profitable quicker than their leaders in the posh space. Such an arrangement does better work not merely in terms of investment, but in terms of profits and returns also. To know the growth opportunity in the economical hotels space in towns and smaller cities, many foreign players have engaged themselves with such budget hotels to expand presence in India. Intercontinental Hotel Group presently signed a mutual venture with India's Duet Hotels to commence the Holiday Inn brand.

Rising occupancy rates and income per room and small debt will pull growth of budget hotels in the approaching years. Mid-sized hotels have a standard occupancy rate of 68% and returns per room of Rs 4,624. Most of these companies are working at little debt assited by a fresh business model and reorganizing exercises.

The increase in foreign tourist onset in India will also improve revenues for budget hotels in smaller cities. Government data showed that
foreign tourists coming in May were up to 7% from the preceding month. There seem to be huge profit in such hotels in the coming years.
