This roundtable discussion is an opportunity for us to work together and find solutions to these challenges,” said Rajan Bandelkar, president, NAREDCO.
“The real estate industry is currently facing a significant challenge as funding opportunities have dried up, which has impacted the growth of the sector. As a result, the NAREDCO Financial Conclave will play a crucial role in addressing this issue while ensuring that banks’ funds remain safe and secure. By bringing together leading banks and real estate developers, the roundtable discussion will provide a platform for identifying innovative solutions to help the industry overcome the current challenges and support its sustained growth and development,” said Sathish Kumar, chairman, NAREDCO Finance Committee.
The discussion will also explore ways to increase the availability of alternative sources of financing for the real estate sector.

The discussion is expected to be a significant step towards creating a more favourable environment for the real estate industry in India. The industry is expected to play a critical role in the country’s economic recovery, and the support of the banking sector will be essential in achieving this goal.
