Faridabad: Faridabad is gradually emerging as a prime destination for real estate investment, particularly attracting interest from developers who are traditionally focused on the saturated markets of Noida and Gurugram. As Noida and Gurugram reach their limits regarding available land and infrastructure capacity, Faridabad is stepping up as a viable alternative, offering promising opportunities and high returns on investment.

Faridabad: Faridabad, strategically located in the National Capital Region (NCR), has long been known for its robust manufacturing base, with notable players like JCB, Escorts, Cisco, Honeywell, etc., being present in the city. However, the landscape is evolving. Faridabad is increasingly being recognized not just for its industrial prowess but also as a growing hub for the service sector. This shift is drawing the attention of major real estate developers, who are increasingly investing in land parcels to capitalize on the city’s growth potential.

The city’s real estate market is currently witnessing a flurry of activity, with big developers from Noida acquiring extensive land parcels. Reports indicate that several developers are now buying 100-200 acres of land in Faridabad. These land acquisitions are primarily for developing a mix of commercial spaces, mixed-use complexes, and large-scale township projects. This influx of investment is set to transform Faridabad into a vibrant and dynamic urban centre, offering diverse opportunities for businesses and residents alike.

One significant example is Bhutani Infra, a well-known name in the real estate sector. Bhutani Infra recently made a notable move by taking a stake in the World Trade Center (WTC), Faridabad project. This investment highlights the growing confidence in Faridabad’s real estate market and its potential as a major commercial hub. Bhutani Infra’s involvement underscores a broader trend of developers recognizing Faridabad as a fertile ground for large-scale projects.

One of the key factors driving this real estate boom in Faridabad is its favourable economic environment and infrastructure developments. Connectivity through some of the major expressways such as Delhi Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC), and Faridabad Jewar Expressway cuts down the travel time drastically. Especially the proximity to the upcoming Jewar Airport will give Faridabad the same edge that Gurugram once enjoyed with IGI Airport. The city is not only becoming a preferred location for global multinational corporations (MNCs) but is also witnessing the establishment of their head offices. This trend is indicative of Faridabad’s growing importance as a business hub, providing both a conducive environment for corporate operations and a high quality of life for employees.

Shailesh Kumar Gupta, NCR Property expert, remarked, “In addition to its appeal to MNCs, Faridabad’s real estate market is benefiting from its existing industrial base and the increasing demand for service sector facilities. The city’s infrastructure improvements and ongoing urban development projects are enhancing its attractiveness as a location for both commercial and residential investment.”

The contrast between Faridabad’s emerging potential and the saturation of neighbouring cities like Noida and Gurugram is stark. While Noida and Gurugram have experienced rapid growth, leading to higher land prices and increased competition, Faridabad offers a more balanced and promising investment environment. The availability of large land parcels at relatively lower costs compared to its counterparts makes Faridabad a compelling choice for developers looking to maximize returns. The influx of major developers, investment in large-scale projects, and the establishment of global MNCs’ head offices are clear indicators of the city’s evolving status. For real estate investors and developers, Faridabad represents a golden opportunity to invest in a market that promises substantial returns and long-term growth.

Delhi, September 19, 2024: As per a study by AlgoTest, an algorithmic options trading platform, an average 4.5 out of every 10 traders on the platform were profitable during the fiscal year 2023-24, compared to the industry average of about one in 10.

The preliminary data for the current fiscal year shows that 46.19% traders were profitable for Q1 of this fiscal year – April – June.

“This success can be attributed to our traders following a systematic process. It is important to backtest and forward-test your trading idea to have an edge in trading in any market,” said Raghav Malik, Founder, AlgoTest. “AlgoTest is committed to empowering retail traders by providing them with a systematic trading process that includes backtesting, forward testing, and only then trading in the live market. This disciplined approach has proven to significantly improve traders’ success rates.” He added.

AlgoTest has over 10,000 users of the platform of which option sellers constituted around 70 percent while the rest were option buyers. Option sellers are those that receive premium while option buyers pay premium for taking a position. The study also highlighted that most traders on AlgoTest are trading intra-day, which means they go home with zero overnight risk.

By far, the most popular strategy on the platform was the intra-day 920 straddle strategy and its variations. It is a delta neutral strategy that tries to capitalize on initial market volatility, but can change its view and follow the trend if the market makes a strong intra-day trend in either direction. A simple variation involves selling both a call option and a put option of the same strike price simultaneously at 9.20 am.

Overall among the 10,000 traders on AlgoTest, more than half are from Maharashtra, NCR region, Gujarat and Karnataka.

Operating on a credit-based pricing system, AlgoTest offers new users 25 free backtests per week and provides unlimited backtest plans at a fraction of the cost of competitors, making it highly accessible for retail traders.

Outlining his journey, Malik said, “When we started, we were only a backtesting platform. Now, the platform has evolved into a full-fledged systematic trading platform. We have backtesting, forward testing as well as live trading as part of the algo trading offerings.”

Along with algo trading, AlgoTest also provides backtesting and trading of manual strategies using their strategy builder and options simulator. It is compatible with most top brokers and one can complete their entire trade without having to leave the AlgoTest platform.
