Around $16 billion locked in Mumbai's fund-starved real estate sector

























Close to Rs1,00,000 crore (around $16 billion) by private equity funds is locked in the fund-starved real estate sector as hundreds of projects get delayed across the country and investors struggle for an exit.
Over and above, investments worth around $1 billion are waiting to be deployed in the sector as the fund managers continue to scout for "quality" projects to ensure a steady cash flow for their investors.
The sector now pins its hopes on a stable government in New Delhi that could drive up the market and bring in a new policy framework.
Ever since banks dropped developers from their client list a few years ago and reduced exposure to the "risky" real estate sector at the behest of the RBI, the sector has been at the mercy of private equity (PE) funds. The PE players raised huge funds from the domestic market as well as foreign (offshore) markets promising their investors attractive returns. In return, developers who sourced funds from PE players are doling out a steep 20-30% interest to the funds, making their projects expensive.
