NCLAT backs project-specific insolvency proceedings against realty firms

The National Company Law Appellate Tribunal has reaffirmed that insolvency proceedings initiated by homebuyers against realty firms must remain confined to the specific project where default has occurred and cannot extend to other projects of the corporate debtor. The appellate tribunal highlighted that putting all other projects of the realty firms, which are unrelated to the default, is not in the interest of homebuyers and other stakeholders of other projects. "The law is well settled that when financial creditors, homebuyers who belong to one project and who file a Section 7 application on account of default committed by the corporate debtor with respect to the project, the CIRP has to confine to the said projects," said the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal (NCLAT). A two-member NCLAT bench, while deciding an appeal by Navin M Raheja, said jeopardising unrelated projects would not serve the interests of homebuyers and stakeholders elsewhere, making clear that the corporat

Foreign fund inflow in Indian real estate falls 75% in Jan-Mar: Colliers

Foreign investors were cautious to put money in Indian real estate during January-March amid the West Asia conflict, as their investments plunged 75 per cent to USD 400 million compared to the previous quarter, according to Colliers. Real estate consultant Colliers India expects foreign investors to remain cautious through this year due to global economic uncertainties. The consultant data showed that the total institutional investments in real estate fell drastically by 61 per cent to USD 1.6 billion in January-March from USD 4.2 billion in the preceding October-December quarter of 2025. Out of this, domestic investors pumped in USD 1.2 billion while foreign players invested just 0.4 billion during the last quarter. During October-December 2025, the inflow from domestic and foreign investors stood at USD 2.6 billion and USD 1.6 billion, respectively. Badal Yagnik, Chief Executive Officer & Managing Director, Colliers India, said that institutional investments in India's real ...

West Asia conflict may push up realty construction costs by 5% in near term

The escalating West Asia conflict is beginning to exert cost pressure on India's real estate sector, with material prices rising and industry leaders warning of a potential 5 per cent spike in construction costs if hostilities persist through April. Construction schedules are also likely to be affected because of shortage of materials and resources if the conflict prolongs. Harshavardhan Neotia, Chairman of Ambuja Neotia Group, said the crisis is triggering a "classic cost-push cycle" for real estate, with crude oil moving from sub-USD70 levels in February to well above USD 110120 per barrel in March and natural gas witnessing sharp spikes. "Early pressure is already visible across steel, logistics, and petrochemical-linked materials. If this persists, construction costs could rise meaningfully over the next 12 quarters, which may have a bearing on pricing going forward," Neotia said. Sushil Mohta, President of CREDAI West Bengal and Chairman of Merlin Group, struck a more immediat
