Land Deals Soar in India: Bengaluru Takes the Lead in 2024
Real Estate Mumbai:India's real estate sector has seen a significant surge in land deals in the first half of 2024, with over 54 new deals for more than 1,045 acres. This marks a considerable increase from the 46 deals for nearly 950 acres in the same period last year. According to a report by Anarock, Bengaluru has emerged as the leading destination for land deals, with nine new deals for 114 acres in the April-June quarter (Q2) alone.

The city's real estate market has been booming, with developers able to sell units in new projects quickly post-launch. All the deals in Bengaluru are proposed for residential developments, driven by the high demand for housing in the city. Gurugram followed closely, with seven deals for over 77.5 acres, primarily for residential development and agriculture.

While Mumbai, which topped the land deals in previous quarters, saw a decline in Q2 2024 with just two deals closed - one for industrial purposes and the other for retail development. However, the city still saw five land deals for nearly 34 acres in the first half of 2024. Other cities that saw significant land deals include Hyderabad and Chennai, each with three deals for approx 63.5 acres and 48 acres, respectively. Pune, Ahmedabad, Noida, and Thane collectively closed two land deals each for about 103 acres.

Dr. Prashant Thakur, Regional Director and Head-Research & Advisory, Anarock Group, noted that the demand for land has been soaring in the last couple of years, driven by the growth in the real estate sector.
