Delhi-NCR has recorded a 49% jump in average residential prices from 2019 to 2024, while MMR saw average residential prices appreciate 48% during the same period. This surge in prices can be attributed to steep hikes in construction costs as well as healthy sales.
The report also highlights the significant decline in unsold stock in both regions. NCR witnessed a 52% decline in unsold stock, while MMR saw a 13% decline over the last five years. This decline in unsold stock is a result of strong sales, with NCR seeing approximately 2.72 lakh units sold and MMR seeing sales of 5.50 lakh units.
According to Anuj Puri, Chairman of Anarock Group, the average residential prices in NCR have gone up from Rs 4,565 per square ft to Rs 6,800 per sq ft. In MMR, average residential prices appreciated 48% -- from Rs 10,610 per sq ft in H1 2019 to Rs 15,650 per sq ft in H1 2024.
The pandemic has also played a role in the surge in housing prices in Delhi-NCR and MMR. Initially, developers induced sales with offers and freebies, but with demand heading north, they gradually increased average prices.
The report also mentions that strong sales have helped reduce the inventory overhang in both regions. In NCR, the inventory overhang has reduced to 16 months in H1 2024 as against 44 months back in H1 2019.
