Luxury housing demand soars in India amidst evolving buyer preferences

India’s luxury real estate market is experiencing a significant influx of buyers, driven by a growing demand for high-end properties. Various factors, such as economic expansion and evolving consumer preferences, have contributed to an increase in sales within major urban centers.

A report from CBRE indicates that there was a remarkable year-on-year sales growth of 37.8% in residential properties priced above Rs. 4 crore during the period from January to September 2024. Luxury unit sales surged to 12,625 units in the first nine months of 2024, compared to 9,160 units during the corresponding period last year. The regions of Delhi-NCR, Mumbai, and Hyderabad collectively represented nearly 90% of total sales across the top seven cities, with Delhi-NCR at the forefront, recording 5,855 units sold.

The growing interest in high-end residential properties can be primarily linked to wealthy buyers who are in search of homes that offer superior amenities and environments that align with their lifestyle. Furthermore, high-net-worth individuals (HNIs) are leading this surge, and their appetite for luxury properties is expected to rise in tandem with the ongoing economic development and urbanization in the country. Developers are concentrating on crafting exclusive, luxury-oriented projects that provide privacy, exceptional amenities, and sustainable living options, specifically aimed at affluent buyers and the HNI demographic.

The high-net-worth individual (HNWI) segment has shown a greater contribution to luxury home sales, driven by a combination of rising disposable incomes and seeking properties that offer high returns on investment. As we observe this increasing interest in luxury properties, we focus on developing projects that cater to this segment, providing them with top-notch services and unique features.”

The ‘Homebuyer Sentiment Survey—H1 2024,’ conducted by FICCI-Anarock, revealed that real estate continues to be the ‘most preferred investment option’ for people in the country. At least 59% of the respondents who participated in the survey said they prefer real estate as their top investment choice. With real estate offering the potential for long-term appreciation and a stable return on investment, many are channelling their wealth into luxury properties,
