The steep rise in housing prices can be attributed to the increased construction costs as well as healthy sales. The COVID-19 pandemic played a crucial role in boosting demand, causing prices to soar to new heights. Developers initially offered discounts and freebies to induce sales, but as demand increased, they gradually raised prices.
Unsold inventory in both regions declined significantly, with NCR seeing a 52% drop from approximately 1.82 lakh units at H1 2019-end to approximately 86,900 units by H1 2024-end. MMR also witnessed a 13% decline in its unsold stock, from approximately 2.35 lakh units at H1 2019-end to approximately 1.95 lakh units by H1 2024-end.
ANAROCK data indicates that only about 1.72 lakh units were launched in NCR between H1 2019 and H1 2024, contributing to the decline in unsold inventory. In contrast, MMR saw over 5.26 lakh units launched between H1 2019 and H1 2024, thrice the new supply in NCR during this period.
The surge in demand for homes underscores a fundamental shift in people's perception of homeownership, where the value of having a place to call home has become more apparent than ever before. The substantial returns offered by residential properties, especially luxury homes, have fueled an increasing trend of purchasing homes for investment purposes.
Gurugram has emerged as a preferred choice for luxury homebuyers in NCR, with a large presence of high-net-worth individuals (HNIs) and ultra-high-net-worth individuals (UNHIs) base and a significant rise in the number of affluent millennials in the region. There has also been a growing demand for luxurious integrated townships that offer affluent homes, safety, and security to homebuyers.
