Dr. Niranjan Hiranandani, National President, NAREDCO and Founder & MD, Hiranandani Group, said, “The current lockdown has brought the industry to a standstill position and the recovery curve will depend on the fiscal stimulus rolled out by the government machinery. Given the bleak market scenario, all concerned stakeholders are in cautious mode and fighting the war of life versus livelihood. However, a great amount of resilience and adaptability has been demonstrated by consumers and the developer. This crisis has definitely put people to re- channelize their thoughts and behaviour, which will lead industry to the structural trends. The biggest learning is the change in perception of owning one’s house which embeds a deep sense of safety and security in the period of crisis. This shall be the next driving force to generate long term sustainable housing demand for the segment.”
