Hyderabad saw the maximum fall of 36% in housing sales, followed by Mumbai, which witnessed a 25% decline. In Hyderabad, only 15,016 housing units were sold in Q2 2024, a significant drop from the 23,595 units sold in Q1 2024.

The decline in housing sales is a cause for concern, especially as the industry was expecting a resurgence after the pandemic. However, experts believe that the market will recover in the coming quarters, driven by government initiatives and changing consumer behavior.
