Realty Stocks: The sector which was affected the most by the corona virus epidemic in the country, is also the realty sector. However, now overcoming the challenges of COVID 19, strong demand is being seen in this sector. Due to increase in demand, shares of real estate companies are also seeing a rise. At the same time, rising prices of metals, cement and other raw materials used in construction are also supporting the sector amid geopolitical tensions. IIFL VP-Research Anuj Gupta says that due to rising metal and commodity prices, real estate companies are increasing project prices, due to which this sector can outperform. Some of their shares can give high returns in double digits.
