Q3 2025: Housing Sales Volume Declines 9% Annually

2025-10-01

India’s residential real estate market showed mixed trends in Q3 2025. Despite global economic uncertainties and affordability challenges, housing demand remained resilient, supported by rising incomes, urbanisation, and aspirational homeownership.

According to ANAROCK Research, housing sales across the top 7 cities stood at approx. 97,080 units in Q3 2025, a 9 per cent decline from 1,07,060 units in Q3 2024. However, the total sales value grew 14 per cent annually – from approx. Rs 1.33 trillion in Q3 2024 to approx. Rs 1.52 trillion in Q3 2025 – largely driven by higher traction in the luxury and ultra-luxury segments.

“While sales volumes dipped, they still outstripped new supply in the quarter, reflecting continued market health,” said Anuj Puri, Chairman – ANAROCK Group.

City-wise Performance

MMR led sales with approx. 30,260 units, followed by Pune with approx. 16,620 units. Together, they accounted for 48 per cent of total sales in the top 7 cities.
All cities saw annual dips in sales except Chennai (up 33 per cent) and Kolkata (up 4 per cent).
New launches rose marginally by 3 per cent YoY to approx. 96,690 units, with MMR (29,565 units) and Pune (19,375 units) leading supply. Pune, Kolkata, and Chennai posted the sharpest yearly rise in new supply.

Segment & Price Trends

The luxury housing segment (>Rs 10.5 Mn) dominated new supply with a 38% share, followed by the premium segment (Rs 8 million–10.5 Mn) at 24%.
The mid-segment (Rs 40–80 lakh) contributed 23%, while affordable housing had the lowest share at 16 per cent.
Available inventory dipped marginally from approx. 5,64,415 units in Q3 2024 to approx. 5,61,756 units in Q3 2025.
Average prices across the top 7 cities rose 9 per cent YoY, led by NCR (24 per cent %) and Bengaluru (10 per cent).

Despite the monsoon season and the traditionally slow ‘shraad’ period, sales rose 1 per cent quarterly, indicating steady momentum ahead of the festive season.

“The impact of the recently announced US H1-B visa norms on Indian housing demand will need close monitoring. While affordability challenges persist, price growth has moderated from the double-digit trends of recent years,” added Puri.

Overall, the market in 2025 remains reasonably steady, with expectations of a festive boost as developers prepare new project launches.
