Distress Sales On Anvil,Developers Have Finally Start Lowering Their Prices But Customer Want's More

Real estate developers may have finally blinked and started lowering their prices, but customers aren't buying yet neither their protestations of maximum discounts nor their product offerings.
The findings from two different surveys reveal as much. While DTZ International Property Advisor's Demand Analysis and Real Estate Trends (DART) Survey 2009 focusses on the trends in the commercial office space rental market, property portal Makaan.com's Me, My Home and Property Rates consumer survey looks at the residential segment.

DTZ's research, in fact, reveals why customers are still holding on to their horses. "If you compare today's rentals with the peak values of end-2007 prices are down by 20-25 per cent, with another 10-15 per cent correction expetced this year," points out Anshul Jain, CEO (India), DTZ.

Its DART survey, which covered 48 companies across Delhi, Mumbai and Bengaluru, reveals that 70 per cent of the respondents do not expect the market to bottom out before the next six months-- clearly indicating that they will be driving some hard bargains with the developers for lease rentals. In fact, renegotiation of rentals, by at least 10-15 per cent, tops the agenda of these companies.

Residential property: Roping in the fence sitters How much discount will attract how many buyers?
*21% home seekers expect discount greater than 30%
*23% home seekers want discount between 20-30%
*21% home seekers expect discount between 10-20%
*14% home seekers seek discount up to 10%
*21% home seekers willing to buy even at current price levels

Interestingly, a significant percentage of the occupiers 19 per cent are also using the current downturn in the realty segment to relocate to more upmarket areas that are now more affordable.

NEW PENSION SCHEME (NPS)

From 1st April 2009 onwards, any individual will be able to start a New Pension System (NPS) account and start saving up for a pension. Of course, the system is not just for private individuals, the pension of all central government employees who have joined service after 01/01 2004 are also part of NPS.

The design of the new system is simple. The National Security Depository Limited (NSDL) will be record keeper and six entities selected by PFRDA will be the fund managers. The fund managers will manage different plans that comprise of equity, government securities and corporate bonds. These plans will obviously have different combinations of risk and returns.

The distinguishing feature of the NPS is the amazingly low cost. The annual cost of record-keping is Rs 380, each transaction will cost Rs 6 and the most amazing of all-the investment management fee is 0.009 % p.a. Why is low cost so important? Because the magic of compounding over the long time horizonwill make its beneficial impact magnified massively.

There are some drawbacks to the NPS too. The biggest is that it really is a pension scheme, not an investment. You can't withdraw the money till you are sixty years old, except for critical illnesses and for building or buying one house. Even at sixty, you can only withdraw as cash 60 per cent of the corpus, the rest must be used to buy an annuity. That's not a bad thing by itself.

Aanother big disadvantage of the NPS is that its gains will be taxable. However, this is obviously a blunder on the government's part and one expects it to be corrected if the NPS is to take off at all. Either NPS gains will be made tax-free or competing systems like the EPFO will also be made taxable.

Tata to Launch -World's Cheapest Car "Nano" On March 23

Tata Motors Ltd. has set March 23 as the launch date for its 100,000 rupees minicar, about three months behind initial schedule.

Bookings for the Nano -- the world's cheapest passenger car -- will begin in the second week of April, . Booking process and other details will be announced at the time of launch

Nano is likely to be offered to “select customers”, including celebrities, sportspersons and leading politicians as part of Tata Motors plan to re-create the hype and excitement which was there when the Rs. 1-lakh car was first unveiled before the world in the Auto Expo 2008. Tata Motors is still trying to recover from the setback it suffered due to the Singur land row that led to the scrapping of its production facility in West Bengal, which was then shifted to Gujarat. It now wants to make the launch event memorable and historic. Through the grand launch, it also wants to erase the bad publicity that the company and the nation got in the world media due to the land dispute that delayed the Nano launch.

The booking amount for Nano is likely to be around Rs. 70,000. The company has announced the prices of Nano between Rs. 1 lakh and Rs. 1.34 lakh. Initially, the company would take bookings of just one lakh cars as mass production of the vehicle would be possible only by 2010, and till then only 3,000 cars a month are likely to be manufactured.
