Indias real estate sector continued its upward trajectory in FY24 and maintained steady momentum into H1 FY25, driven by a encouraging macroeconomic environment, improving consumer sentiment, and infrastructure-led urban growth.

Residential sales across the top 7 cities touched an all-time high of 4.76 Lakhs units in FY 24, marking a 31% year-on-year increase. This was matched by a 25% surge in new launches, indicating strong developer confidence. The momentum carried into H1 FY25, with approximately 2.5 Lakhs units sold, reflecting a 9% growth over the same period last year.

MMR and Pune remained the star performers, MMR grew 9% YoY in FY 24, powered by metro connectivity, Eastern Freeway extensions, and renewed launches in Thane and the Central Suburbs. Pune outpaced most metros, clocking a 16% YoY increase in sales, led by strong demand in Hinjewadi, Wakad, and Hadapsar micro-markets. Nashik and select tier-2 cities also began to show improved absorption, driven by a_ordability and rising investor interest. From a price-band lens, mid-income housing ( 40–80 Lakhs) maintained the largest market share at 33–34%, followed by the premium segment ( 80 lakh– 1.5 crore) and a steadily rising share of luxury homes (> 1.5 crore), especially in Mumbai, Goa, and Alibaug. Luxury and second-home markets saw 20–25% growth in FY24, with continued demand in H1 FY25 from HNIs and remote-working professionals. On the commercial real estate front, leasing volumes surpassed 35 million sq. ft. pan-India in FY24, with flex spaces and strata-sale models gaining traction among SMEs and institutional investors alike. Pune and MMR continued to attract occupiers in IT, BFSI, and co-working sector Policy support, including expected rate cuts by the RBI in H1 FY25 and continued focus on RERA and GST-driven transparency, are further enhancing buyer confidence. Infrastructure developments like the Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMIA), Pune Ring Road, and new metro lines are expanding the viable development corridors, unlocking value across peripheral markets.

According to IBEF, the real estate sector is on track to register a CAGR of 9% between 2023 and 2028, buoyed by demand across residential, commercial, and emerging asset classes. Residential sales across Indias top 7 cities are expected to cross 5 Lakhs units in 2025, up from 4.76 Lakhs in 2023, led by sustained demand in the mid-income ( 40–80 Lakhs) and premium ( 80 Lakhs - 1.5 crore) segments. These two categories are expected to account for a combined 59% of new launches, with the mid-income segment retaining leadership due to a_ordability, and the premium segment expanding in metro micro-markets.

Luxury homes ( 1.5 crore and above) continue to witness strong interest, especially in Mumbai, Delhi, and select second-home destinations like Goa, as HNIs and remote-first professionals seek lifestyle and wellness-centric real estate.

In terms of regional performance, MMR is expected to grow 12–14% YoY in FY25, powered by infrastructure rollouts like the Metro extensions and Navi Mumbai International Airport. Pune is projected to grow at 10–12%, driven by consistent demand from IT, education, and manufacturing clusters Nashik and other tier-2 cities are expected to deliver 6–8% growth on a lower base but with increasing absorption.

The commercial real estate segment is forecast to grow 8–10% YoY, with leasing activity concentrated in flex workspaces and strata-sale commercial inventory. Institutional demand in Pune, Mumbai, and Bengaluru remains strong.
