Despite the global recession, India’s real estate industry is performing well, and this data comes at a time when other countries are attempting to stabilize their economies owing to inflation.Â
World Economic Effects on India
According to SBI Chairman Dinesh Khara, the impacts of global recession expected by the International Monetary Fund are less likely to be as severe in India as in other countries. Khara informed PTI about these real estate statistics during an interview on Friday on the sidelines of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank’s annual meeting. He also noted that India is doing well, with a 6.8% growth rate projected and inflation “well under control.” This balance can be attributed to the spending habits of Indian citizens on Diwali. A majority of businesses see a boost in their profits as Indians tend to buy more before the festive season. Whether it’s a local store selling diyas and lights or it’s an electronics store, it will see a positive sales trajectory. Â
China‘s intense zero-covid policy has resulted in prolonged lockdowns in the country’s major cities, ports, manufacturing hubs, and other countries worldwide. The real estate market’s dramatic decline has impacted the country’s finances. The property market in China, supported by the government, generates between 30-40 % of the country’s GDP and 30-40% of all bank loans.

In light of the condition of worldwide trade today, a 6.8% growth rate is expected in India’s GDP, which is the fastest growth rate of any other country in the world.
