Mumbai's Real Estate Boom: Office and Residential Markets See Significant Growth in H1 2024
Real Estate Mumbai:The financial capital of India, Mumbai, has witnessed a significant boom in its real estate market in the first half of 2024. According to a recent report by Knight Frank India, the city's office market has seen a remarkable 79% year-on-year growth, with 5.8 million square feet of office space transactions. This surge in office leasing activity has made Mumbai the second most active office market among eight cities in India.

On the residential front, Mumbai has seen a 16% year-over-year increase in sales, with 47,259 units sold in H1 2024. Despite this growth, new residential launches have declined by 7% year-over-year, with 46,985 units introduced during this period. The average home price has also risen by 4% compared to H1 2023, driven by steady demand from buyers.

The growth in Mumbai's office sector can be attributed to various factors, including developer confidence, increased transactions, improved infrastructure, higher physical occupancy levels, and a favorable economic climate. Indian enterprises have dominated the office space transactions, accounting for 80% of the total transactions, which is supported by the growing domestic economy. Flex office spaces have also made a significant contribution, accounting for 10% of the total leasing activity in H1 2024.

The average office rent has increased by 4% year-over-year, indicating a strong demand for office spaces in the city. Notably, Mumbai's residential market has seen its highest half-yearly sales volume since H1 2012, with a total of 46,985 new residential units introduced during this period.
