Land acquisition activity slowed in Q2 2024, with only 325 acres transacted due to high prices and elections, according to Anarock. Bengaluru and Gurugram led the deals.
New Delhi, Jul 21 (PTI) Land acquisitions remained muted during April-June, and only 25 deals covering 325 acres were closed during this period, mainly due to high prices and general elections, according to Anarock.
In contrast, there were 29 land deals closed in the year-ago period, comprising 721 acres.
