Hyderabad’s residential real estate market witnessed a sharp 49% decline in housing sales between Q1 2024 and Q1 2025, marking the steepest fall among major Indian cities, according to Anarock Research.
The downturn is attributed to high property prices, cautious buyer sentiment, and rising interest rates.
Across India, housing sales dropped by 28% overall, with other key markets like Delhi-NCR (-20%), Mumbai Metropolitan Region (-26%), Bengaluru (-16%), and Pune (-30%) also experiencing notable declines. Chennai and Kolkata recorded 26% and 31% dips, respectively.
Real estate analysts suggest that this slump may create new opportunities, as investors and landlords are expected to open up more deals to attract buyers.
Developers might also introduce discounts and flexible payment options to revive demand.
With Hyderabad facing the biggest sales drop, market watchers anticipate price corrections and better deals for homebuyers in the coming months.
Experts believe the next quarter will be crucial in determining whether the city’s housing market can rebound.
