Singh, Hon. Member MahaRERA, Shri. Vasant Prabhu, Secretary, MahaRERA, Shri.
Shirish Deshpande, MGP and Shri. Ajay Mehta, Trainer.
Pre-RERA, the real estate sector was completely unorganized and unregulated with
multiple challenges. It took 70 years for the sector to get a regulator. RERA aims
at ushering in an era of 3Ts in the Real Estate Sector and maintain focus on Five
Key Pillars of the Act, RERA 1.0 Implementation Report: MahaRERA the Leader,
statistics pertaining to MahaRERA and the consequent analysis, i n n o v a t i v e
initiatives of MahaRERA, challenges in Post RERA era and RERA 2.0 that aims to
focus on development.
18
Shri Mohan Deshmukh, in his address, briefed the gathering about the good
progress of the Conciliation Forum and assured the MahaRERA Authority to
aggressively implement it through a more result-oriented approach as a way
forward.
Shri Gautam Chatterjee, in his presentation, highlighted that out of 28,000 ongoing
projects, only 13,000 are registered. Moreover, out of all the registered ongo-
ing projects, only 6,500 have been completed reason for non-completion range
from liquidity issues to NBFC problems to Covid-19 and also developers’
delinquency. 4,500 projects could have further been completed had they not
got an extension. There are 12,500 complaints filed in MahaRERA which are
against 2,600 registered projects (less than 10% of all registered projects) & 765
complaints for non-registration. A good number of 9000 complaints have been
disposed of.
Shri Ajoy Mehta, in his speech while appreciating the efforts put in by the entire
Conciliators said that the well-structured MahaRERA Conciliation Forum needs
to focus on standardizing and simplifying the laws and the current methods
which are being practiced.
The session concluded with a wonderful training session provided by Shri Ajay
Mehta (Trainer) to all the Conciliators present.

CREDAI-MCHI, in association with its Knowledge Partner CRE Matrix, jointly
unveiled a comprehensive research report ‘MMR Property Tracker’ at the 8th
edition of CREDAI-MCHI Biznet 2021 in Mumbai on 26th February. The unveiling
was headed by Dr. Adv. Harshul Savla - Task Owner, Mr Deepak Goradia - President,
Mr. Pri t a m C hiv u k u l a - Se c retary, Mr. Do m nic Ro m el l - V i c e P re s i d e n t ,
CREDAI-MCHI, Mr. Jayesh Shah - Vice President, CREDAI-MCHI, Mr. Mayur
Shah - Past President, CREDAI-MCHI, Mr. Vijay Lakhani - President, Navi Mumbai
CREDAI-MCHI and Mr. Abhishek Gupta, CEO & Co-Founder, CRE-Matrix.
The monthly report, which has traced the quantum of MMR residential real es-
tate transactions in January, analyzed the region by dividing it into 8 key hous-
ing markets in the regions: CBD Mumbai, Central Mumbai, Central Suburbs,
Western Suburbs, Eastern Suburbs, Thane, Raigad and Palghar.
23
Of the key findings in the ‘MMR Property Tracker Report’, it was observed that
MMR witnessed 33% y-o-y growth in Housing Sales in January 2021. The average
value of the property sold in January 2021 was 66 lacs implying a 14% y-o-y
growth in average property value.
The Central Business District (CBD) Mumbai witnessed renewed enthusiasm
from the HNI’s, with 48% y-o-y growth in units sold in January 2021, with an
average ticket size of Rs. 1.6 crore. Meanwhile, in Central Mumbai, the period
from September 2020 to December 2020 showed a hockey-stick like increase
in the value of units registered capturing the positive effect of stamp duty reduc-
tion taken by the state govt. The Central Suburbs saw that the value of sales in January
2021 was a substantial 71% more than the monthly average of the value of the
units sold in the previous three years. Western Suburbs and Eastern Suburbs
witnessed 58% and 71% y-o-y growth in sales with an average ticket size of Rs
1.1 crore, respectively. This sales momentum is expected to continue further as
the pandemic effect is slowing down and fence-sitters are now going ahead and
taking the property investment plunge. Across Thane, 30% more units were sold as
compared to January 2020, with an average ticket size of 41 lacs. Raigad, largely
known to be an affordable housing market, oversaw a y-o-y growth of 23% in
housing sales.
CREDAI-MCHI President, Deepak Goradia, shared his comments on the same -
“The past few months have re-laid the foundation of the Real Estate sector not
just in MMR but the entire state of Maharashtra, largely owing to the progressive
and decisive measures taken by the State Government to galvanize the sector in
the post pandemic era. This joint report with CRE Matrix is a testament to the
improving home buying sentiments in MMR with the region witnessing an overall
y-o-y growth of 33% in housing sales in January. Homebuyers, at the back of
COVID–19, have also fully comprehended the importance of owning a house
and have been registering interest owing to a number of favourable buying factors.
We expect this strong tide to continue till March and hope to sustain this momentum
beyond March as well.”

2/2.5 BHK UNITS DRIVING

RESEARCH REPORT

of sales (in value terms) coming from larger typologies. In Jan – Feb 2021 too,
>=4BHK category had the highest share in the value of units sold. Central Suburbs
is typology agnostic – as all types contributed at least 15% in value terms in
2020. The highest contributor in terms of the value of properties sold, though,
was the 3/3.5 BHK category, at an average ticket size of Rs 3.6 crores. Eastern
Suburbs, on the other hand, 2 - 3 BHK category had the highest impact (~60%)
on the value of properties sold, with an average ticket size of Rs 1.7 crore.
Across Western Suburbs, <=2.5 BHK is the most popular category, contributing
to over 84% of unit sales in 2020, a trend also witnessed in Jan-Feb 2021.
Historically, while the majority of sales in Thane have come from the 1/1.5 BHK seg-
ment, with an average ticket size of Rs. 30 lacs, this year the 2/2.5 BHK category
has emerged as the highest impact typology - contributing an avg. of 22% to units
sold but 27% to total value sold. Led by an increase in real estate development and
enhancing infrastructure, we foresee a change in Thane’s buyer preferences in
the future. In Raigad, the affordable segment market has witnessed almost 66%
units being sold in the Studio / 1 / 1.5 BHK segment with an average ticket size
of Rs 27 lacs. Palghar has witnessed the majority of sales happening in smaller
typologies of 1/2 BHK segments, contributing 94% in the number of units sold
and 84% in total value sold in 2020. Going-forward, with the Mumbai-Ahmedabad
bullet train route passing through this region, it is likely to see an improvement
in the overall development and an increase in demand for larger typologies as
well. CREDAI MCHI President, Deepak Goradia, shares his remarks “We are ex-
tremely proud and delighted to unveil the second edition of CREDAI MCHI – CRE
Matrix research report titled ‘MMR Housing Typology Report’. This re p o rt gives
consumers an insight into housing typologies and trends and also provides the devel-
oper fraternity with a definitive course of strategic direction for future projects.
With a new dawn of MMR real estate upon us, we look forward to partnering with
industry stakeholders by facilitating an informed and knowledgeable real estate envi-
