Housing Sales Value to Cross Rs 4.5 Lakh Cr in 2023, From Rs 3.27 Lakh Cr in 2022 

Mumbai, December 14, 2023: Indian residential sector surpassed all previous highs in 2023 with housing sales creating a new peak quarter-on-quarter, according to a ANAROCK report. Concurrently, the overall sales value of sold housing inventory also inched higher. Even before Q4 2023 sales numbers are collated, the strong sales momentum indicates that the total value of homes to have found buyers in 2023 will cross the Rs 4.5 lakh Crore mark – 38% higher than the total sales value of entire 2022, which saw Rs 3.27 lakh Cr worth of homes sold.

In just the first nine months of 2023, the total residential property sales value is already 7% higher than the whole of last year, with the top 7 cities seeing inventory worth approx. Rs 3,48,776 Cr sold in this 9-months period. Entire 2022 saw approx. Rs 3,26,877 Cr worth of inventory sold.

Between January and September 2023, approx. 3.49 lakh units were sold in the top 7 cities, against approx. 3.65 lakh units in entire 2022. In value terms:

• MMR topped the list with approx. RS 1,63,924 Cr worth of inventory (approx. 1,11,280 units) sold in the first nine months of 2023
• NCR follows with approx. cumulative sales value of RS 50,188 Cr (approx. 49,475 units) sold in this period 
• Bengaluru saw homes worth approx. RS 38,517 Cr (approx. 47,100 units) sold in 9M 2023 
• In Hyderabad, approx. 44,220 units worth approx. RS 35,802 Cr sold in the period
• Pune saw approx. 63,480 units worth approx. RS 39,945 sold till Sept. 2023, indicating a higher traction of budget housing in the city
• Chennai witnessed approx. 16,310 units worth approx. RS 11,374 sold in 9M 2023 
• Kolkata saw the lowest overall value (approx. RS 9,025 crore) of housing inventory (17,280 units) sold in the period – again indicating higher sales of affordable homes

 Anuj Puri, Chairman – ANAROCK Group, says, “The fact that the housing sales value in 9M 2023 exceeded that of the whole of entire 2022 reflects the increased demand for premium luxury homes this year. This, along with the fact that average prices in the top cities rose by anywhere between 8-18% this year, makes an apple-to-apple comparison of annual sales values challenging.”

“If we look at the quarter-on-quarter sales values in 2023, each quarter saw consistent growth and overall sales value has already breached the RS 1 lakh crore mark,” says Puri. “In Q1 2023, homes worth RS 1,12,976 Cr were sold in the top 7 cities, Q2 2023 saw a jump of 1%, and then a further jump of 8% in Q3 2023. Sales in the ongoing festive quarter have been robust across these markets and the concluding quarter of 2023 will be no different. Thus, we expect the overall housing sales value to cross RS 4.5 lakh crore by 2023-end.”
