Real estate analysts said that the trends indicated a continued shift in homebuyers' preferences as well as an increase in prices in the major micro-markets of the city.
According to data from Maharashtra Inspector General of Registration, accessed by Knight Frank, homes priced between Rs 50 lakh and Rs 1 crore accounted for the largest share of registrations in August.
Data showed that 13,397 registrations were inked in August, compared to 13,021 in the corresponding month in 2023, and 13,731 registrations in July 2024. July and August are typically slower months for property registrations in the market, largely owing to the monsoons.
From the registrations in August, the government collected Rs 592 crore in stamp duty, significantly higher than the Rs 492 crore for August 2023. In July 2024, the same was at Rs 521 crore.
