Real estate developers in Ahmedabad have finally budged to the demands of customers, this festive season.

Although the realty market in Ahmedabad is doing better than many other cities in the country, demand has remained sluggish even in Ahmedabad due to the condition of the economy and a higher inflation rate. This has prompted realty developers to be open to negotiations.

The major developers do not offer freebies, and instead provide cash discounts. Depending on a customer’s bargaining skills, the discount can be as high as 15 per cent, said a leading realty consultant from city.
