Additionally, the daily average property registrations rate increased from 510 units in Navratri 2023 to 578 units in Navratri 2024. This improvement also translated into a significant boost in daily revenue, which rose from Rs 48 crore per day in Navratri 2023 to Rs 56 crore per day in 2024, according to data from Knight Frank.
In September 2024, the city registered a total of 9,111 property transactions, averaging 304 units per day. The decline in registrations during this month was primarily attributed to the Pitrupaksh period, observed from September 18 to October 2, 2024. Homebuyers typically avoid making major purchases during this time, leading to a temporary slowdown in market activity.
However, the Pitrupaksh period itself saw a steady market activity with 3,216 property registrations. The daily average rose by 5%, from 279 to 292 units, indicating a resilient market even during traditionally slower periods. Revenue collection also saw strong growth, increasing by 14% to Rs 219 crore in 2024, compared to Rs 191 crore in 2023. The average daily revenue jumped by 25%, from Rs 16 crore to Rs 20 crore.
Shishir Baijal, Chairman & Managing Director, Knight Frank India, commented on the trend, saying, “The festive season sparked renewed sales momentum, leading to a sharp rise in property registrations. While September 2024 saw lower volumes due to the Pitrupaksh, Navratri brought a shift in sentiment. Stable interest rates and growing demand for premium properties have driven this increase. Revenue collection during Navratri 2024 increased by 15.2%, and we expect strong registration volumes to continue into Diwali, supported by steady sales, gradually increasing property prices, and stable interest rates.”

These numbers highlight the resilience and growth potential of Mumbai’s property market, even during periods traditionally considered slow. As the festive season progresses, market analysts and industry experts are optimistic about continued positive performance.
