Hyderabad, on the other hand, saw a modest appreciation of 7 percent, with average housing prices rising to ₹7,050 per square foot from ₹6,580 per square foot. PropTiger attributes this price appreciation to rising demand, particularly for high-end properties. The Reserve Bank's decision to maintain the repo rate at 6.5 percent over the past 10 policy meetings has added further pressure on pricing. In the absence of a rate cut, developers and buyers continue to pay a relatively high interest on loans, impacting housing affordability.
Other cities also witnessed substantial growth. In Ahmedabad, housing prices increased by 21 percent to ₹4,736 per square foot, up from ₹3,900 per square foot. Bengaluru saw a 15 percent increase, with prices rising to ₹7,512 from ₹6,550 per square foot. Chennai experienced a 22 percent growth, with prices reaching ₹7,179 from ₹5,885 per square foot. Kolkata also saw a 22 percent rise, with rates increasing to ₹5,844 from ₹4,786 per square foot. Meanwhile, Pune witnessed an 18 percent increase in average prices to ₹6,953 per square foot, up from ₹5,892 per square foot.
Commenting on the trend, Harinder Dhillon, Senior Vice President of Sales at BPTP, stated, 'The consistent rise in property values underscores the resilience and growth potential of the Indian residential real estate market.' He noted that prices have increased in key markets of Delhi-NCR, particularly in regions such as Gurugram and Faridabad, where demand for quality residential projects has driven prices upward. 'As these regions evolve with enhanced infrastructure, connectivity, and lifestyle amenities, they offer compelling investment opportunities for homebuyers and investors alike,' Dhillon added.
