Real estate sector hopes for good Akshaya Tritiya sales amid Covid-19 crisis

New Delhi, April 24, 2020: The real estate sector has been long grappling with challenges related to credit and liquidity crunch. Also, to add to it, the uncertainty over the longevity of the Covid-19 outbreak looms large. The sector is looking for triggers and impetus that would further propel demand and the festival of Akshaya Tritiya is one such occasion. Akshaya Tritiya is considered to be an auspicious occasion for large value assets such as property, gold or vehicle. As a result of the sentiments, real estate developers introduce attractive offers or discounts to woo the buyers and generate sales.

Commenting on the market outlook, Mr. Ram Naik, Executive Director, The Guardians Real Estate Advisory says, “Akshaya Tritiya, signifies prosperity for a lot of communities in India. Over the years, this day because of its auspiciousness among potential homebuyers, has brought impressive sales numbers for the real estate sector. This year the category is hoping to make the most of this day to ensure a spike in business, which has more or less remained tepid across the country as a result of the lockdown due to the Covid-19 pandemic. We expect a lot of mouth-watering deals being offered to the customers this Akshaya Tritiya, to provide a compelling reason to close transactions without visiting the site.”

Hence, festivals like Akshaya Tritiya play an important role for both buyers and developers. While buyers look for festive offers and schemes, developers try to maximize their sale during these times.
