The residential market in the National Capital Region (NCR) has taken a breather after growing consistently since 2020. Although sales saw a slight decline last year, the region’s robust fundamentals and growing demand for higher ticket size segments with upscale living spaces continue to highlight its enduring appeal among homebuyers seeking lifestyle upgrades and strategic investments.
Developers launched 60,699 housing units in 2024, reflecting a strategic alignment with buyer preferences and emerging infrastructure projects.
Average price grew by 6% YoY, and this consistent price appreciation is largely attributed to a steady demand and supply for the higher ticket size segment at elevated price points. Locations such as NH-24 in Ghaziabad and Golf Course Extension Road in Gurugram have seen significant price growth due to their strategic connectivity and premium offerings.
