“The residential real estate sector has performed superbly over the past 18-24 months and continues to do well right up to March 2023,” said Nikhil Gupta, Chief Economist, Motilal Oswal Financial Services Ltd.

From the aspect of percentage growth in terms year-on-year, the State witnessed the growth of 48 per cent over last year.

According to Gupta, the sector may see some headwinds in the coming quarters. Add to that the real possibility of a global recession next year and the real estate sector may be in for some slowdown. Headwinds are the factors or events that slow down growth or cause negative effects on profits and revenue.
