The brokerage's chief economist Nikhil Gupta said the residential realty market witnessed a revival in the last fiscal and the average growth in the last two years of the pandemic was 15 per cent.
He, however, was sceptical if the growth can be sustained amid economic uncertainties.
"Considering the facts that interest rates have bottomed out, fiscal incentives have expired, inflation is high and economic uncertainty is also steep, FY22 performance in the residential property market is unlikely to be repeated next year," Gupta said.
