Sharing his insights, Vikas Wadhawan, Group CFO, REA India and Business Head of PropTiger.com, said, "Growth in housing sales both in volume and value terms augurs well for the overall economy as more than 200 ancillary industries, including cement and steel, are dependent on the real estate sector."
He further added, "India’s housing market is having a dream run. Sales of residential properties in the top eight primary markets have been growing at a rapid pace, buoyed by robust growth, steadfast mortgage rates, and an escalating desire for homeownership. As investor confidence gradually resurfaces, coupled with a robust demand from Non-Resident Indians, the trajectory of housing demand appears poised for solid growth, barring any unforeseen spikes in prices."
Ankita Sood, Head of Research, PropTiger.com & Housing.com, stated, "The first quarter saw an extraordinary 68% surge in property sales' Gross Transaction Value compared to last year's Q1. Notably, major cities like Mumbai, Hyderabad, Delhi NCR, and Pune collectively accounted for 76% of the total transaction value of Rs 1.11 lakh crore. This surge not only signifies heightened demand but also reflects a remarkable 15–20% uptick in property prices within key business districts. We expect the momentum to continue in the coming two quarters, driven by economic growth and strong demand.”
