Tier-2 Cities Lead Residential Price Growth Over Top Eight Indian Metros
A joint report by the Confederation of Indian Industry and Knight Frank India highlights that residential prices in 11 emerging Tier-2 cities are growing faster than in India's top eight metropolitan markets. These cities, including Bhopal, Bhubaneswar, and Jaipur, are expected to see a 63% price increase between 2021 and 2026, compared to 42% in major metros. The growth is driven by improving economic fundamentals, infrastructure development, and rising consumption, signaling a shift in India's real estate growth beyond traditional urban centers.
