Several factors are driving this demand for luxury housing. One major factor is the rise of millennials, who are increasingly looking to purchase luxury homes. According to CoreLogic data, 54% of home purchases were made by millennials.
Urbanisation has also played a significant role in the growth of luxury housing, particularly in cities like Delhi-NCR, Mumbai, Hyderabad, and Pune. Delhi-NCR, for instance, saw a 13.8% increase in luxury home sales in the first half of 2024, with around 3,300 units sold.
The growth of luxury housing can also be attributed to high-net-worth individuals, who are seeking spacious, comfortable homes with world-class amenities and aspirational values. According to a report by Cushman and Wakefield, 61% of new residential projects in Q1 2024 were in the luxury segment.
