In 2025, India's nine prime residential markets saw a 5% dip in home sales, with 5.45 lakh units transacted compared to 5.77 lakh in 2024. However, the total registered sales value increased by 11% to ₹4.46 lakh crore, driven by an 22% rise in average deal sizes and sustained price appreciation. This indicates a market shift towards value-led growth, with premium segments showing signs of saturation in select areas like MMR, while overall affordability is being tested.
