Housing Sales in Q1-Q3 2024 Reach 2.29 Lakh Units, Marking 17% YoY Growth
Real Estate:In the first nine months of 2024, the Indian real estate market saw a robust surge in housing sales, with 2.29 lakh units sold, marking a 17% increase year-on-year (YoY). According to a report by JLL, Bengaluru and Mumbai were the frontrunners, contributing around 44% of the total sales. This growth was particularly driven by a heightened demand for premium and luxury housing segments.

Interestingly, around 2.28 lakh housing units were launched during the January-September period, which is the highest ever residential supply recorded in the first nine months of any year. Launches achieved 78% of the total annual launches in 2023, indicating a strong and consistent supply inflow. Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Hyderabad together accounted for about 60% of the overall launches during this period.

Segment Breakdown\nThe report showed that the demand for the premium segment (priced between ₹3-5 crore) grew by around 107% YoY, while the luxury segment (priced above ₹5 crore) witnessed a 96% growth. In the nine-month period, 39% of the residential sales were in the mid-segment (₹50 lakh-1 crore), closely followed by the upper-mid segment (₹1-3 crore) with a 35% share. The significant growth in the premium and luxury segments can be attributed to changing lifestyle preferences and increased disposable income among buyers.

Market Outlook\nDespite a slight slowdown in sales during the third quarter, the overall outlook for the residential market in 2024 remains positive. The first nine months of 2024 achieved around 85% of the entire 2023 sales. The report predicts that 2024 will close with sales reaching a historic milestone, 12-15% higher than the 2.94 lakh units sold in 2023. This growth is expected to be driven by the festive season and the continuous inflow of quality projects by reputed developers.

City-Specific Insights\nBengaluru and Mumbai continued to dominate the housing market, jointly accounting for 44% of the sales in the first nine months. In the third quarter of 2024, a total of 74,987 units were sold, marking a moderate 8% growth compared to the same period in 2023. Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Delhi NCR represented about 62% of the quarterly sales, with a notable 15% of the units sold being in the ₹3 crore and above range.

Delhi NCR experienced the highest price hike at approximately 19%, followed by Bengaluru with a 14% increase. The increasing demand for high-value projects has been a key driver of this price growth since Q2 2022, post-pandemic.

On a yearly basis, nine-month launches across the top seven cities rose marginally by 2%. However, quarterly launches saw a 14% quarter-on-quarter (q-o-q) decline, with 68,874 housing units getting launched during Q3. The premium and luxury segments saw significant growth, with launches increasing by 112% and 128% respectively compared to the same period in 2023.
