Land Auctions Point to Rosy Future for City Realty
Summary: Rosy Picture? City realtors and builders foresee positive growth after TSIIC’s e-auction? An acre of land costs between `6 and 18 crore in hotspot locations in the city? Yet, land prices here are 30 to 40 pc cheaper than those in Bangalore, Chennai? Cheaper land prices and better facilities make Hyderabad preferred location We have been saying for the past six months that Hyderabad is going to experience a positive recovery and the TSIIC’s e-auction has proved it. The last stretch of ORR will be completed soon and metro rail will also come into operation. “While an acre of land at Raidurgam was sold for `30 crore, the highest price recorded till now in Hyderabad, in the same location some lands fetched between `6 and 12 crore. This has surely given the required boost to Hyderabad realty,” says Gummi Ram Reddy, president of the Telangana chapter of Confederation of Real Estate Developers’ Associations of India.
HYDERABAD: The mind-boggling price at which lands in the western Hyderabad region were sold in the recent e-auction held by the Telangana State Industrial Infrastructure Corporation (TSIIC) has given boost to the city realty which is on the path of recovery. The question that sprang in the minds of investors and realtors after the e-auction was “Is it just an isolated case of a few prime lands fetching a fancy amount or is it a sign of the things to come in the near future?” Not just the realtors in Hyderabad but those from other parts of India also think that the prices commanded in e-auction were in tune with the positive trend to be witnessed by Hyderabad realty in the coming days. “While an acre of land at Raidurgam was sold for `30 crore, the highest price recorded till now in Hyderabad, in the same location some lands fetched between `6 and 12 crore. Similarly, an acre at Manikonda was sold between `7 and 14 crore. We have been saying for the past six months that Hyderabad is going to experience a positive recovery and the TSIIC’s e-auction has proved it. 

This has surely given the required boost to Hyderabad realty,” says Gummi Ram Reddy, president of the Telangana chapter of Confederation of Real Estate Developers’ Associations of India. A positive outcome of TSIIC’s e-auction was local companies like Aurobindo Pharma bought the lands for office space by paying a whopping sum, thus showing the willingness and capacity of the local investors to invest in Hyderabad. Western Hyderabad, which comprises real estate hotspots like Madhapur, Gachibowli, Raidurgam, Hitec City and Manikonda, is considered a real estate hotspot not just in Hyderabad but in the entire South India. Though these lands in the hotspot areas commanded fancy prices, the prices are cheaper than the prices of similar prime lands in cities like Bangalore and Chennai, thus making Hyderabad a favourite for realtors from all over India. Areas such as Raidurgam, Manikonda and Gachibowli in western Hyderabad have IT companies, a good environment, are in proximity to the airport and Outer Ring Road, and some other advantages. The last stretch of ORR will be completed soon and metro rail will also come into operation. Rosy Picture ? City realtors and builders foresee positive growth after TSIIC’s e-auction ? An acre of land costs between `6 and 18 crore in hotspot locations in the city ? Yet, land prices here are 30 to 40 pc cheaper than those in Bangalore, Chennai ? Cheaper land prices and better facilities make Hyderabad preferred location. . 

NEW TOWNSHIP ON HYDERABAD OUTSKIRTS TO BOOST REALTY

Hyderabad: Real estate industry has a major role to play in the development and success of any international city, believes the Telangana chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao.
Barely two months after forming the first government in Telangana, KCR dished out a slew of programs and policies that were to benefit the real estate sector with a particular focus on Hyderabad.
Some of the highlights were abolition of the value added tax (VAT), extension of the single-window clearance system for the industrial sector, promises to remove encroachments that waterlogged roads and colonies, special growth clusters along the ORR and plans of building 4-lane roads linking east-west, north-south corridors in the next five years.
The CM's vision and priorities seemed to be in the right direction with policies that sought to help out the realtors such removal of double taxation and rationalisation of seigniorage fee to Rs.3 per sft besides helping out the daily commuter by easing traffic congestion and providing better quality roads, street lights and storm water drains.
The chief minister seemed determined to place Hyderabad on the list of international cities that attracted a cosmopolitan crowd and investment. His plans however did not seem to go as well as he would have intended. There is a regressive slump in the real estate market as a result of capital outflow to the real estate sector of the neighbouring state of Andhra Pradesh. The investor sentiment of watch and wait during the days of agitation did not really hop back into a realty frenzy that was initially predicted.
His innovative move to develop the temple town of Yadadri (earlier Yadagiri gutta) backed up by quick marketing for spiritual tourism and a general boost to the tourism industry in Telangana has seen limited response for the skeptical investor. Free housing for the poor has been replaced by low cost housing where the beneficiary bore part of the cost.
4000 acre township near Hyderabad proposed
KCR however seems to be resolute! In a meeting with the captains of the real estate industry on Saturday, KCR invited them to play a participatory role in the development of the industry. He proposed to develop a 4000 acre township on the outskirts of Hyderabad. He wants more focus on greenfield projects and said that the government would play a supportive role in this objective.
The meeting at the CM's camp was attended ex-president of Confederation of Real Estate Developers’ Association of India (CREDAI) C.Sekhar Reddy, its Telangana president G.Ramireddy and its Hyderabad president S. Ramireddy.
Focus on skyscrapers, adviced KCR. They will stand as a testimony to a city's progress and development he added. Hyderabad will be surrounded by Health City, Pharma City and Cinema City and since Bengaluru is facing the challenge of overcrowding, companies are now preferring to move to Hyderabad he stated. He invited to the real estate developers to become part of this strategical expansion of the city.
The chief minister revealed that HMDA is working on a report called 'Hyderabad Today and Hyderabad in Future' and wanted the real estate captains to participate and contribute to this report. He pointed out that it was necessary to completely understand Hyderabad before adopting from other cities plans.
It remains to be seen how the real estate developers who are already riding the slump with projects in various stages of development and not enough buyers, will respond to these new initiatives of the government.

Breaking all records, an acre of land in Hyderabad has fetched Rs.29.28 crore to the Telangana government in an e-auction conducted on Wednesday.

Aurobindo Pharma bought the prime land of five acres at the highest rate in Raidurgam close to the IT clusters of Hitec City and Gachibowli. The same company purchased another parcel of 3.65 acres in the same area at a price of Rs.24.88 crore per acre.

Naya Infra purchased two acres of land in Raidurgam at a price of Rs.24.20 crore per acre. Saimed Labs paid Rs.22.02 crore per acre for a three acre parcel.

Officials said this broke all previous records. Even during the boom time in 2007-08, the auction of government land in Raidurgam had only fetched Rs.18 crore to Rs.23 crore per acre.

The companies, which purchased the land in the auction conducted by Telangana State Industrial Infrastructure Corporation (TSIIC), plan to build world-class corporate headquarters.

The government body also auctioned lands in Manikonda and Kokapet areas for residential use. The price also broke previous records. A real estate company paid Rs.12.63 crore for an acre in Manikonda while an acre land in Kokapet fetched Rs.6.05 crore to the government.

TSIIC managing director E. V. Narasimha Reddy said that to ensure transparency, the auction was conducted through e-auction cum e-tender process.

IT expansion plans lift Hyderabad office rentals over 45%

According to Jones Lang LaSalle (JLL) India, the rents in 2009 and 2010 were in the range of 28-32 per sq ft per month, compared with 43-47 per sqft now

Hyderabad is witnessing a sudden upsurge in commercial office rentals that have appreciated over 45% as corporates have started taking calls on their expansion plans, which were shelved for the past five years.

According to Jones Lang LaSalle (JLL) India, the rents in 2009 and 2010 were in the range of 28-32 per sq ft per month, compared with 43-47 per sqft now. "During the political instabili ty, construction activity slowed down significantly, leading to rise in rents in key sub-markets of Hyderabad. The rents appreciated almost 15-20% in the past two years, given the strong corporate expansion in Hyderabad with limited availability of quality leasable space," said Trivita Roy, associate director (research and REIS), JLL India.

The bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh had delayed office space plans of several companies. With the formation of the new state -Telangana -and new policies being rolled out by the new government, the unease among corporates has eased, and they have started looking for office space.

The city, which is home to offices of MS, Google, Facebook, Amazon and Yahoo, saw property valuations mostly being stagnant, or increasing by less than 2%. IT companies that had kept their expansion on hold in Hyderabad due to the Telangana crisis are back in action. Accenture, UHG, Zen Q, HSBC and JPMC ex panded more than one lakh sq ft this year, which has reduced the vacancy levels in Hyderabad.

The vacancy in the key IT hubs such as Hitec City and Gachibowli is about 7% for grade A office assets. "About 3.6 million sq ft of supply is likely to hit market in 2016 and this does not include the built to suit, or campus options, of office space," said Roy.

Vineet Surana, director at APS Property Solutions in Hyderabad, said, "Grade A office space vacancy levels had fallen to single digits. Rentals in peripheral business districts like Madhapur & Kondapur have seen a surge of 15-18% over the previous years.

Coincidentally, the city also recorded the highest office space absorption among the top eight cities in the country in the third quarter of 2015, according property consultant Cushman & Wakefield, as political stability in the region saw more corporates sign property deals.

Net absorption of office space in the city was recorded at 24 lakh sq ft, while commitments were at 3.85 lakh sq ft, the highest office space net absorption witnessed after the formation of Telangana and the highest since 2008.

Puravankara Projects, a Bengaluru-based developer, sold its Grade A Office Space in Hi-Tech City (Kondapur), in Hyderabad, to investors in four days.

"We are witnessing an increasing demand for commercial office space in Hyderabad. Infrastructure development, political stability and significant FDI in vestments have been very encouraging. This would lead to a sustained real estate growth in this region," said Ashish Puravankara, MD, Puravankara Projects.
