Primary residential sales across nine major Indian cities declined 6% in the latest market review, with Pune, Chennai and Kolkata recording double-digit drops. The dataset covers Mumbai, Navi Mumbai, Thane, Delhi-NCR, Bengaluru and other key urban markets.

Pune leads Maharashtra slowdown

Pune's primary housing market saw a double-digit fall in sales, signalling caution among buyers after a strong run. Mumbai, Navi Mumbai and Thane remained part of the nine-city review, though the overall trend points to softer demand in the quarter.

What it means for buyers and investors

For Maharashtra property buyers, the slowdown may bring more negotiable pricing, ready-to-move options and developer incentives, especially in Pune's peripheral corridors. Investors should track absorption, new launches and unsold inventory before committing to under-construction projects.

Market watchers expect infrastructure-led pockets such as metro corridors, ring roads and business districts to stay relatively resilient. However, a broad recovery will depend on interest rates, affordability and job-led demand in the coming quarters.
