Mumbai's Luxury Property Market Sees Second-Highest Price Growth Globally
Real Estate Mumbai:India's commercial capital, Mumbai, has witnessed a significant surge in prime residential property prices, with a 13% increase in the past year, making it the second-highest growth globally. This remarkable growth has pushed Mumbai up the rankings from 6th position last year.

The Knight Frank Prime Global Cities Index, which tracks the movement of prime residential prices across 44 cities worldwide, revealed that Manila led the pack with a 26% on-year growth in prices, while Mumbai clinched the second spot with its 13% appreciation. Other key Indian residential property markets, including New Delhi and Bengaluru, also recorded significant growth, with 10.6% and 3.7% rises, respectively, in their average annual prices of prime residential properties.

The demand for prime properties in Mumbai has been particularly strong, driven by the increasing affluence of the wealthy and their need for lifestyle-oriented properties. This trend is expected to continue in 2024, with the economic outlook remaining strong and sentiments buoyant.

The premium segment has been the primary driver of sales growth across the Indian market, and this is reflected in the price growth seen during the June quarter. The increasing affluence of the wealthy and their need for lifestyle-oriented properties has fuelled the prime residential market.
