KEY CONTEXT

The Indian real estate sector has seen strong housing demand in the quarter as consumer confidence drove purchases in the sector despite high borrowing rates.

Peers Prestige Estates Projects and DLF also reported a significant rise in their Q2 profits. Sobha, however, posted a fall in its second-quarter profit on higher land purchase costs.
