Pratik Tibrewala (Senior Vice President & Head Corporate Finance at M3M India), said,  "The upcoming monetary policy announcement will be closely watched by both homebuyers and the real estate industry. While inflationary pressures and global economic uncertainties remain key considerations for the RBI, the residential real estate sector has demonstrated strong resilience, supported by sustained demand, rising incomes, and growing consumer confidence. Any accommodative stance or indication of future rate stability would further strengthen buyer sentiment, particularly in the mid-income and premium housing segments. At the same time, a stable interest rate environment provides greater visibility for both developers and homebuyers, supporting long-term investment decisions. We believe India's real estate sector remains well-positioned for growth, backed by strong fundamentals, infrastructure development, and continued urbanization trends."
 
"The upcoming MPC decision regarding repo rate will be significant for the real estate sector. We expect the RBI to maintain the stability of current repo rate to support homebuyer confidence and developer investments. Predictable borrowing costs help homebuyers make informed purchasing decisions while enabling developers to focus on project execution and long-term planning. The housing market continues to witness healthy demand, supported by improving infrastructure and urban development. Maintaining the current rate cycle would help sustain market momentum, preserve positive sentiment, support the continued growth of the real estate sector and the broader economy", said,  Preeti Rai, President Sales and Strategy, Origen Realty

Santosh Agarwal, Executive Director & CFO, Alpha Corp Development Limited,
 said, "The upcoming monetary policy announcement is expected to play a significant role in shaping market sentiment across interest-rate-sensitive sectors, including real estate. The sector has witnessed strong momentum over the past few years, driven by rising homeownership aspirations, infrastructure-led growth, and sustained demand across premium housing. A stable interest rate environment would be a positive outcome, as it enhances affordability for homebuyers and supports long-term investment decisions. It would also provide greater confidence to developers in planning future projects and capital deployment. We remain optimistic about the long-term growth trajectory of the real estate sector, supported by robust economic fundamentals, urbanization, and the government's continued focus on infrastructure development."
 
"The upcoming RBI monetary policy announcement is expected to provide important cues for the housing market and broader economic outlook. The real estate sector has maintained strong growth momentum, supported by healthy end-user demand, rising disposable incomes, and significant infrastructure development across key urban centres. A stable or accommodative policy stance would help sustain positive homebuyer sentiment by keeping borrowing costs predictable and improving affordability. This is particularly important at a time when housing demand remains robust across both mid-income and premium segments. From a developer's perspective, interest rate stability supports investment planning and project execution. We remain confident that the sector will continue to benefit from India's strong economic fundamentals, rapid urbanisation, and increasing preference for homeownership." — Ashish Sharma, AVP Operations, Brahma Group*
