Indian Housing Market Sees 12% YoY Price Growth in Q2 2024
Real Estate News:Driven by strong demand from homebuyers, the Indian housing market has witnessed a significant surge in prices, with average housing prices across major cities increasing by 12% year-on-year (YoY) in the April-June quarter of 2024. According to a report by CREDAI-Colliers-Liases Foras, the positive homebuyer sentiment and steady demand have kept the momentum strong in the residential market across major Indian cities.

The report highlights that 7 out of 8 cities under review witnessed annual price appreciation, with Delhi NCR witnessing the highest price rise at 30% YoY, closely followed by Bengaluru. The average housing prices across the top eight Indian cities also witnessed a 3% QoQ (Quarter-on-Quarter) growth in the June quarter of 2024.

While unsold inventory remained stable on an annual basis at a pan-India level, it dropped marginally on a quarterly basis amid healthy sales in housing units. At 5%, Kolkata saw the highest sequential decline in unsold inventory levels, followed by Pune with a 3% dip.

As of Q2 (April-June quarter) 2024, there was an availability of over 10 lakh housing units across the primary market of eight major cities, with Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) alone having about 40% share in unsold inventory levels. Despite yearly increase in number of unsold units in Hyderabad and Bengaluru, both cities saw a modest dip on a sequential basis.

Boman Irani, President of CREDAI National, stated, “Indian real estate has been somewhat experiencing a bull run in the past few quarters, substantiated by the volume of transactions across top 8 cities as well as the prevalent positive sentiments towards housing. There has been a direct impact on housing prices - signifying not just the underlying demand but the definitive shift towards real estate as a preferred asset class. With the upcoming festive season - coupled with the government’s focus on infrastructure and a relatively stable lending eco-system - we project this momentum to further have an impact on both prices and unsold inventory levels, as the industry's demand-supply dynamics change.”

The report covered residential markets in Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Chennai, Delhi NCR, Hyderabad, Kolkata, MMR, and Pune.
