Conclusion:

Indian economy showed early signs of growth post various initiatives and reform measures undertaken by the Central Government.

The Company believes that public and private investment spending to drive the capex growth will be critical to India’s growth outlook. The Government has taken measures to boost spending by increasing the capex allocation towards infrastructure projects by reforms in the budget. The Government is also taking various initiatives to unlock stuck investments in the core and infrastructure projects, revive investments from the private sector by reforming policy environment, improving the ease of doing business and accelerating the project related approvals.

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has started to lower the interest rates as well as increase the liquidity in the economy by taking various initiatives. Impact of US interest rates on global capital flows will determine the pace of interest rate cuts.

The Government has taken measures to revive the economy by modifying FDI policies for various industries, pushing hard for infrastructure spending and towards creating smart cities.

Various reforms announced by the Government such as ‘Housing for all by 2022’, development of ‘Smart Cities’ and the proposed real estate regulatory bill are expected to benefit the sector over the medium and long-term. The Government expects that half of the population would be shifting to urban cities by 2050.

The approval to Real Estate Investment Trust (REITs) was also an extremely welcome step which should help revitalizing the office & retail business.

On the basis of above factors we recommend a buy in DLF Limited for long term with a target of Rs.180.
