Press Release Body: India, 15 October, 2007: RocSearch, a fast-growing, UK-based,
business research and analytics firm, released a comprehensive analysis of the
Indian real estate market, which could be of special interest to investors.

The RocSearch report contains a description of the growth drivers and draws a
picture of the macro-environment of the real estate industry in a PEST framework.

The report also lists the major players, both institutional and private, in this
field. It provides a comparison of the Indian real estate market with major cities
in the Asia-Pacific region.

RocSearch analysts estimate that private equity funds will invest about US$5-8
billion in the country's real estate sector between 2006 and 2008. It is also noted
that real estate investment yields in India are in the range of 10-12% as compared
to a 5-7% yield in mature markets of advanced countries.

With an estimated 70% of the new construction in the commercial space needed for the
info tech sector, India's information technology (IT) and business process
outsourcing (BPO) industry expected to grow to US$148 billion by 2012 is likely to
require about 200 million sq. ft of office space by 2008.

The study predicts a sustained demand for housing with increasing disposable
incomes, affordable home loans, urbanization and the emergence of a younger earning
age group. It also provides insight on the widening demand-supply gap for
international quality real estate space in the A-grade cities of India, creating a
spillover demand in smaller cities.
