Indian Cities Shine in Global Prime Residential Markets, Mumbai and Delhi Lead the Charge
Real Estate News:The global prime residential market has witnessed a slowdown in price growth, but Indian cities have defied this trend. According to the 'Prime Global Cities Index Q2 2024' report by Knight Frank, Mumbai has recorded the second-highest annual price growth in the world for prime residential properties in Q2 2024.

The report notes that the average annual price increase across 44 key residential markets worldwide was 2.6% in the 12-month period ending June 2024. However, Indian cities have bucked this global trend, with Mumbai, New Delhi, and Bengaluru all registering robust growth in their prime residential property markets.

Mumbai's YoY price rise of 13% in prime residences has catapulted the city to the 2nd position globally, up from 6th in Q2 2023. This growth reflects the strong demand for luxury properties in India's financial capital, driven by increasing wealth and aspirations among the city's affluent population.

New Delhi also recorded impressive gains, with a 10.6% YoY increase in prime residential property prices. This sharp rise has seen the national capital leap from 26th place in Q2 2023 to 3rd in Q2 2024 on the global index. Meanwhile, Bengaluru maintained its position, with a 3.7% YoY growth in prime residential prices, holding steady at 15th place on the index.
