The cities covered in the report include Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Delhi-NCR (Gurugram, Noida, Greater Noida, Ghaziabad, and Faridabad), Mumbai Metropolitan Region (Mumbai, Navi Mumbai, and Thane), and Pune.

Factors Driving the Surge in Delhi NCR

The primary driver of the price surge in Delhi NCR is the influx of high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs) who are deploying capital in the region.
With over 10 recently-listed start-ups, the area has become a hub for premium residential properties.
Key locations like Gurugram, Greater Noida, and Noida have seen significant sales growth

Despite a 26% year-on-year dip in pan-India home sales, these regions have maintained their momentum.
Developers are prioritizing premium offerings, catering to the affluent segment of the market.

Mumbai's Property Market

India’s financial capital, Mumbai, also witnessed an average 18% YoY increase in property prices.
The city, home to India’s leading business leaders, Bollywood stars, and sports celebrities, continues to be the most unaffordable housing market in the country.

Challenges and Policy Recommendations

While the rising property prices indicate strong demand and positive buyer sentiment, they pose affordability challenges.
Dhruv Agarwala, Group CEO of Housing.com & PropTiger.com, noted, “This kind of price growth is indicative of underlying demand and growth prospects.
However, cost pressures might further affordability concerns in a country where a large part of the population relies on government subsidies for house purchases.
Amid hardening inflation and slowing growth, the government must launch policy measures to promote affordable housing.
Positive tweaks in taxation laws in the upcoming Budget and rate cuts by the RBI could go a long way in ensuring greater affordability for India’s burgeoning middle class.”
