Higher property prices, changes in law to boost debt recovery from stressed realty projects: Report

The recovery of debt from stressed residential realty projects is expected to increase in the current financial year due to rising property prices and regulatory changes. Crisil forecasts a bad loan recovery rate of 16-18% by FY25, driven by improved project viability, strong demand, and investor interest. Recent amendments to IBBI regulations are also seen boosting real estate asset resolution. With residential realty demand projected to grow by 10-12% and low unsold inventories, ARCs are expected to expedite the turnaround of stressed projects.
