As GST is modern India’s tryst with destiny, so is 2017 a red-letter year for Indian Realty, being witness Executive Summary to a multitude of policy measures. These range from RERA - the primary driver towards a more regulated, transparent and accountable realty sector, to GST- a key inflection variable for sunrise sectors such as Warehousing, Logistics and Manufacturing, to REITs which is a game changer for commercial assets. This paper seeks to analyse these key inflection points within the ambit of a till date constricted industry, as well as outlines its future outlook. India’s hugely productive office & workspaces will witness a counter-balancing of the effects of global economic vagaries, Trump’onomics, automation and dividends from India’s policy reforms & demonetization. Office absorption will continue to see an upward trajectory, despite short-term setbacks. In 2019, a net absorption of 34.3 mn. sq. ft. (up from 33.4 mn. sq. ft. in 2016) is expected and once again IT/ ITes will emerge the probable hero. With the first likely REIT listing towards end 2017, institutional investors and HNIs will look keenly at commercial markets. 900 REIT worthy commercial Grade A assets equalling 280 mn. sq. ft. are estimated to be available across key cities. The potential of this investment, as and when it starts yielding, will be a key reflection point for office markets. Residences & Homes will be a key beneficiary of the big bang RERA (provided it is implemented true to form). With it we are on the cusp of ushering in an era of greater transparency and accountability across multiple stakeholders. Developers have already started aligning businesses to RERA guidelines and Brokers will need to follow suit, else both are likely to fall by the wayside. Having said that, a marginal dip in residential supply is forecasted in the near term, as only those developers capable of delivering on time will undertake newer assets. And why not, since penalties for late deliveries are steep, not to mention the added whiplash! Affordable Housing will continue to see healthy supply, with 1Q 2017 witnessing maximum number of new launches (35%) in the INR 3,000-4,000 per sq. ft. category across key cities. With the triumvirate of Modi, Jaitley and Naidu granting Infrastructure Status to affordable products, developers heave a slight sigh of relief on cheaper funding, including external commercial borrowings (ECB). Question to ponder - Since we are now a ‘One Tax’ nation, can the days of a Uniform Affordability Code be far behind? Only time will tell! Modern Retail will evolve as hubs of enhanced ‘experiences’, which will be key for its inflection in order to counter balance the maelstrom of E-Commerce. The shifting ‘experience of retailing’ may be attributed to: increasing disposable incomes, enhanced demographics, technology innovations, greater access to the web and use of smartphones as well as emergence of alternative payment systems. Demonetization has led to a less-cash economy and the consumer has adapted to it begrudgingly. 2017 appears to be a strong year in terms of supply, with over 7.7 million sq. ft. expected to become shopper-ready. Good malls are witnessing moderate - good pre-commitment levels - ranging between 51-75% of leasing. The paper also looks at GST, and its impact on emerging sectors such as Warehousing and Manufacturing, set to witness increased investor interest - the recent IndoSpace platform investment by Canada Pension Plan Investment Board evidences enough. Post 1st July 2017, supply chain management and asset quality of warehouses should improve. 2017-The Inflection Point of Indian Real Estate being launched on the sidelines of the 9th CII Real Estate & Infrastructure Conclave hopes the implementation of these gigantic policy changes in 2017, albeit slow and much awaited, will be seamless and advance the institutional development of India’s hitherto cautionary real estate economy. The glass seems to be half full, and awaiting a top-up! Ramesh Nair CEO & Country Head JLL, India 2017: THE INFLECTION POINT OF INDIAN REAL ESTATE 2017: THE INFLECTION POINT OF INDIAN REAL ESTATE
Office Markets Office markets continued to look attractive with Bengaluru showing the lowest office market vacancy rate of 3.2% among all the top seven Indian cities in Q1 2017. Bengaluru and Mumbai accounted for 60% of the total absorption during the quarter. IT/ITeS sector revenues were under pressure due to increase in wage costs, appreciating rupee and changes in the industries to which the Indian IT sector caters. However, with IT/ITeS companies looking to reskill employees, changing towards Agile model of software development and looking for alternative areas of growth, we feel that the impact on space requirements will be marginal. Technology is not only displacing current jobs, but also creating new ones. The impact of Trump’s policies on hires in the US is minimal. On the real estate front, there has been no immediate change in terms of Request for Proposals (RFPs) floating in the market or the share of the IT sector in leasing or the type of buildings presently being built by developers. Also, India continues to be a cost-competitive market versus its other counterparts, which is a critical strength. REITs markets are likely to kick-start in 2017 and will be a major inflection point for office markets. 2017: THE INFLECTION POINT OF INDIAN REAL ESTATE 2017: THE INFLECTION POINT OF INDIAN REAL ESTATE

As can be seen below, across cities, IT corridors were trading at vacancy levels lower than the city level average vacancy. This indicates that the demand for space by IT companies continued to be healthy. The maximum occupier share in JLL-REIS Office Rental Value Index total lease transactions was also taken up by IT & ITeS companies (41%), followed by manufacturing (17%) in 2016. No other industry is as space intensive as IT & ITeS. Other sectors like logistics often house their staff out of warehouses thus Rents in Bengaluru stood well above their previous peak followed by Pune & Chennai. Hyderabad is about to reach its limiting their requirement for quality office space. peak rental level in upcoming quarters.

REITs - The Key Change Driver REITs is an investment tool that owns and operates real estate related assets and allows individual investors to earn income through ownership of commercial real estate without actually having to buy it. The concept is similar to mutual funds and provides its investors various income streams and long-term capital appreciation akin to mutual funds.

Outlook for Office Markets US Policy Impact: For now, it is an evolving and a dynamic situation. However, it is highly unlikely that USA will be able to completely do away with outsourcing. On the real estate front, there has been no immediate change in terms of RFPs floating in the market or the share of the IT sector in leasing or the type of buildings presently being built by developers. Also, India continues to be a cost-competitive market versus its other counterparts, which is a critical strength. REAL ESTATE OUTLOOK - IMPACT OF AUTOMATION However, there is no denying the fact that Indian IT companies do need to brace themselves to Near Term Medium Term evolve and adapt to the triple force of automation, (1 year) (2-3 years) new technologies like Artificial Intelligence and protectionism, all at the same time.

Residential Markets Residential markets witnessed the impact of the demonetisation drive with a slowdown in sales in Q1 2017. However, units launched witnessed a noteworthy q-o-q rise of 11.8% compared with Q4 2016. Pune was the highest contributor to quarterly supply across the seven cities in Q1 2017, followed by Mumbai and Bengaluru. Most launches were seen in the mid-range and affordable categories across all the cities. Going forward, the implementation of RERA by state governments will be the key inflection point for residential markets and we expect a slow and steady rise in capital values. Initially, this will be a reflection of reduced supply, as only those developers confident of completing projects timely will undertake new projects. Later, as the market becomes more transparent and well regulated, end-users and investors will find their way back, keeping capital values up. 2017: THE INFLECTION POINT OF INDIAN REAL ESTATE 2017: THE INFLECTION POINT OF INDIAN REAL ESTATE

RERA Impact on Stakeholders Affordable The Real Estate Regulatory Act (RERA) bill will have an impact across all stakeholders in the real estate markets. Overall capital values are likely to go up across most cities as there will be a slow down in supply, while demand will remain robust. A more regulated, transparent market will also see the eventual return of the investor, as he will see price rise Housing accompanied by with increased sales activity. 1 IMPACT ON DEVELOPERS IMPACT ON BUYERS 2 Beneficiary of Policy Initiatives • The applicable exemptions for affordable housing will now be recognised on the basis of carpet area of 30 sq. m. and 60 sq. m. instead of on the basis of saleable area.

Outlook for Residential Markets Projects with smaller unit sizes will witness more traction than projects with larger unit sizes. With the implementation of RERA, we expect a reduction in new launches across all cities as only those developers confident of meeting timelines will undertake new projects. With reducing new launches and a simultaneous dip in unsold inventory we should see a steep appreciation in capital values. Capital values will rise across all cities in the near term, keeping in mind the inflation delta. In NCR however, where there is an oversupply, we expect to see stability in capital values. Post RERA, major developers are likely to enter into joint venture partnerships or undertake joint development with smaller developers to complete stalled projects. Transparency in the market is expected to increase. Home loan rates will look soft in the near future and this will give a boost to residential markets. In its recent monetary policy announcement on 7 June 2017 the RBI, has reduced the amount of money, banks have to set aside (as security) on home loans. Already banks like SBI have started lowering home loan rates. Mid-Premium Category Impact: A Perspective The impact of slowdown in the IT/ITeS sector on demand for mid-premium residential housing is likely to be felt-specially in Bengaluru. If this bracket of consumers faces a serious risk of getting pink slips, there is a possibility that the recovery of residential sector in the mid-premium category will be delayed. JLL India’s REIS data on project launches over the last five years confirms this linkage here. The price category that middle management employees typically target are apartments in the price range of Rs. 4,000-10,000 per sqft, which contributed close to 45% of the total project launches on an average in the five-year period until 1Q2017.

Retail Markets The future of retail is becoming increasingly exciting with experience being rendered the greatest emphasis by various stakeholders. This variety of experience will be the key inflection point for the success of malls, with food and beverages and entertainment facilities increasing in importance. Innovative developers are introducing new entertainment options in the malls and retailers are trying to merge online experiences with offline ones to enhance the experience of the consumers. This has been made possible with technological innovations. On a pan-India level, against the net supply of -0.2 million sq. ft., an absorption of 0.2 million sq. ft. was recorded in Q1 2017. Vacancy in superior Grade A malls was at a minimal 2% in Chennai. Mumbai vacancy levels were at 8% and Bengaluru and NCR were at 5% and 10% respectively.

Outlook Outlook For Retail Markets POLICY SUPPORT REQUIRED • The government has to facilitate growth by preparing clear policies for the retail sector and creating retail zones thereby reducing infrastructure bottlenecks. • Recent FDI retail policy and state-level retail policies, where the government is taking up the role of a facilitator to create an environment conducive to the retail business, are steps in the right direction. • While consumer adoption, technology progress and retailer push have been the key drivers, government initiatives will further propel omni-channel retailing. DEMONETIZATION IMPACT ON TECHNOLOGY ADOPTION • The demonetization drive has catapulted the digitalization momentum in the Indian economy resulting in a spectacular growth of mobile wallets and card payments. While the economic indicators have dipped temporarily, the impact is not likely to be long term. • The impetus for digital payments will accelerate the technology adoption rate in the country. CO-EXISTENCE OF ONLINE AND OFFLINE CHANNELS • A right combination of omni-channel will be the way forward. We would see waves in both directions, i.e. movement from online only to omni-channel as well as offline only to omni-channel. • Investment in technology infrastructure will enhance the quality of consumer experience as well as the security of online transactions. This will attract more consumers to online retail. REITS - THE FUTURE KEY DRIVER • With the advent of REITs in the near future, the quality of malls is expected to improve and the concept of strata sale of properties is expected to reduce considerably. GST IMPACT • With GST, rationalization of taxes at different levels, improvement in ease of doing business, as movement of retail goods and raw materials will be easier. • Reduction in final prices of certain items, due to a reduction in transportation costs as well as the cost of raw material post-GST will strengthen sales. 2017: THE INFLECTION POINT OF INDIAN REAL ESTATE 2017: THE INFLECTION POINT OF INDIAN REAL ESTATE
Emerging Sectors GST impact on Warehousing and Manufacturing GST, the biggest tax reform independent India has ever witnessed, will have a positive impact on supply chain management and the quality of warehousing assets across India. It will also lead to larger warehouses and open up new warehousing destinations as tax efficiency will no longer be the motivation for the location of a warehousing hub. Warehouses are expected to have ‘economics of scale’ thus increasing Per Cubic Metre storage efficiency of warehouses. While the overall impact of GST will be positive for the manufacturing sector, the exclusion of Petroleum from GST will be a dampener. Petroleum products such as high-speed diesel, are common fuels used in various manufacturing processes. Emerging Sector - REITs The first REIT listing is likely towards end 2017 and the biggest impact will be on commercial assets. Some of the largest developers will be seen keen to list their assets.
