Prestige Estates Projects, Oberoi Realty, Godrej Properties, Unitech, Indiabulls Real Estate and DLF from the Nifty Realty index up in the range of 2% to 5%. Nifty Realty index, the largest gainer among sectoral indices, was up 2.5%, as compared to a 0.21% decline in the Nifty50 index. In the previous calendar year 2018, the realty index was one of the most underperforming sectors, down 33%, against a 3% rise in the benchmark index. The shares of Kolte-Patil Developer (KPDL) have surged 14% to Rs 272 a piece on the back of an over 10-fold jump in trading volumes, after the rating agency CRISIL has revised the outlook on its rating on the long-term bank loan facilities of the real estate company to 'Positive' from 'Stable’. The outlook revision reflects CRISIL's belief that KPDL will maintain a robust financial risk profile over the medium-term, backed by improvement in collections, steady project saleability, and maintenance of debt at the current level. CRISIL expects the company to continue to maintain its financial prudence while maintaining the project portfolio at healthy operating levels.
