The FM also admitted that a series of measures announced by the Modi government to revive the economy had not particularly helped in improving the sentiments around the real estate sector. “One particular sector which I have not touched, but which has a lot of positive impact and also can affect an impact for the stock market, is the real estate sector,” the FM said. She indicated that several alternative funds were seeing this as an opportunity provided the government assured a supporting mechanism.
