Samir Jasuja, CEO & Founder, PropEquity said, “The housing supply and sales are up in Q4 CY2024 owing to the festive season demand. However, the Y-o-Y basis drop is due to the high base effect, as 2023 was a peak year for both sales and launches. A closer look at the numbers reveals that despite the drop, the supply to absorption ratio in 2024 remains the same as 2023 which indicates that the fundamentals of the real estate sector are strong and healthy.
