Mumbai Sees Strongest Half-Yearly Property Performance in a Decade
Real Estate Mumbai:Mumbai city, under the jurisdiction of the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), registered 75,982 property sales in the January-June period (H1 2025), marking a 5% year-on-year increase, according to a report released on Monday. Revenue from these registrations rose by 15% to Rs 6,727 crore, with both metrics recording their strongest half-yearly performance since 2013, the report by Knight Frank India stated.

The month of June saw the registration of 11,521 properties, denoting a 1% moderation, while revenue from these registrations totaled Rs 1,031 crores, reflecting a 2% rise compared to the same month last year. Registrations were primarily residential, with 80% of the registrations in this segment.

Shishir Baijal, Chairman & Managing Director of Knight Frank India, commented, “Mumbai’s residential market continues to reflect steady buyer confidence, as registrations consistently stay above the 11,000-mark year-on-year. What’s particularly encouraging is that this sustained demand has led to the city’s strongest half-yearly performance in over a decade.”

While there has been some cooling in the mid-price segments, the appetite for larger homes and properties priced above Rs 5 crore remains strong, driving healthy revenue collections. June reflected a distinct shift in buyer activity, with momentum skewed towards the higher price brackets. The share of registrations for properties priced above Rs 5 crore rose from 5% in June last year to 6%.

Apartments up to 1,000 sq ft continued to dominate Mumbai’s residential registrations in June, accounting for 84% of all transactions, broadly stable compared to 83% in June 2024. Within this, the 500–1,000 sq ft segment remained the most popular, inching up from 44% to 45%. The share of units up to 500 sq ft held steady at 39% year-on-year. Larger apartments maintained their presence, with units sized 1,000–2,000 sq ft unchanged at 13% and those above 2,000 sq ft steady at 3%.

This underscores the enduring preference for compact homes, even as a niche segment of buyers continues to explore more spacious living options, the report concluded.
