IBC Fuels Real Estate Grab in Indian Cities
12 Jan
Summary
- Insolvency Code aids urban property acquisition.
- Over 1,900 real estate firms in insolvency.
- Clean title and clarity attract developers.

The Indian Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) is increasingly vital for accessing urban real estate, especially in supply-constrained metropolitan markets. Strategic buyers are utilizing the insolvency process to gain ownership of assets with greater certainty regarding titles, approvals, and timelines. This framework streamlines land consolidation and facilitates ownership transitions, reducing execution risks for developers.
As of September, 8,659 companies had entered insolvency, including approximately 1,905 real estate firms. A significant number of these have seen resolution plans approved, underscoring the IBC's growing influence in the property sector. Buyers are attracted to the clean ownership and absence of past or hidden liabilities offered by insolvency-led transactions, often at competitive valuations.
