Mumbai Property Registrations Hit 14-Year High in 2025, Surging 6% to 1.5 Lakh Units
Registration of properties in the Mumbai municipal region surged 6% during the 2025 calendar year, reaching 150,231 units. This figure marks a 14-year high, driven by strong demand in the housing market.
On Wednesday, real estate consultant Knight Frank India reported that Mumbai city, under the jurisdiction of the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), delivered its best housing market performance in 14 years in 2025. The data, sourced from the state government, shows that property registrations stood at 150,231 units in the Mumbai municipal region during 2025, compared to 141,202 units in 2024.
In December 2025 alone, 14,424 properties were registered, a 16% increase from the 12,418 units registered in the same month of the previous year. Residential properties accounted for 80% of the total registrations in December, highlighting the strong end-user demand in the market.
Shishir Baijal, Chairman and Managing Director of Knight Frank India, commented, '2025 marked a steady and mature phase for Mumbai’s housing market, with property registrations crossing 1.50 lakh, the highest level seen in the last 14 years. This milestone is a strong indicator of the underlying resilience and depth of the market, driven by sustained end-user demand and a far more supportive supply-side ecosystem.'
The data encompasses both the primary and secondary housing markets in Mumbai. The significant increase in property registrations underscores the city's robust real estate sector, which continues to attract investors and homebuyers despite economic challenges.
The growth in property registrations is attributed to several factors, including favorable government policies, improved infrastructure, and a stable economic environment. The real estate sector in Mumbai has been bolstered by the development of new projects and the availability of affordable housing options, making it an attractive market for both first-time buyers and investors.
As the year 2025 comes to a close, the positive trend in property registrations is expected to continue into 2026, with further improvements in the market expected to drive demand and boost the overall health of the real estate sector in Mumbai.
