Home Sales Value Up 14% in Q3 2025; Premium Segment Leads

Home sales across India's 8 prime residential markets stabilized in the July-September quarter, with a marginal 1 percent year-on-year dip in volume to 95,547 units sold. In sharp contrast, the total value of properties sold during the quarter surged by 14 percent annually to reach Rs. 1.52 lakh crore, a clear indication of a market shift towards premiumization.

These findings were published in the latest quarterly report, 'Real Insight Residential: July-September 2025', by digital real estate transaction & advisory platform PropTiger.com by Aurum Proptech.

The report also highlighted that new supply across the top eight cities saw a 5.1 percent annual decline, with 87,179 units launched. However, new launches registered a 3.6 percent growth over the previous quarter, signaling cautious optimism among developers.

This trend suggests that developers are strategically launching higher-value projects to align with the current buyer demand, which is heavily skewed towards the premium and luxury segments.

Commenting on the report's findings, Onkar Shetye, Executive Director of Aurum PropTech said, "The Indian residential market is clearly transitioning from a broad-based, volume-led recovery to a more mature and sustainable phase of value-driven growth. This quarter's performance underscores the remarkable resilience of the premium segment, which continues to be the market's primary growth engine, supported by stable macroeconomic fundamentals and strong buyer sentiment. Favorable conditions, such as the stability in interest rates and proactive policy reforms like the recent GST reduction on cement, have provided a crucial buffer against rising input costs and bolstered developer confidence. We are optimistic about the upcoming festive quarter, which will serve as a key indicator of consumer demand. However, it will also be a true test of the market's ability to balance this growth momentum with emerging affordability challenges, particularly in the mid and entry-level segments."
