In the approaching year, there will be a huge scope for the commercial real estate due to the increasing number of grade-A office spaces for start-ups, co-working places and e-commerce which are also the key drivers of this segment. IT parks in terms of location and amenities will also emerge as an exemplary trend for commercial real estate growth in India. Rentals in commercial realty will become an epitome of growth, as the investors tend to rent a commercial space rather than buying it. Also, the increase in educational institutions in metro cities will drive student housing, which is a huge unmet demand in the country.

RERA is streamlining the real estate, ensuring that the buyer gets full value for the money spent in buying a home. The central and various state governments are also announcing single window approvals for real estate. If the same becomes effective, it will contribute significantly to the growth of the industry.
