India’s Real Estate Landscape Poised on Cusp of Transformation in 2025


January 28, 2025: India’s real estate market is entering a vital phase, with 2025 set to redefine its growth path. This growth is driven by urbanisation, infrastructure development, and evolving consumer preferences. The sector’s trajectory reflects a shift in both residential and commercial spaces, with an increased focus on innovation, sustainability, and adaptability. Further, in the wake of the pandemic, India’s real estate market underwent a transformation, where new trends emerged to address changing needs and luxury housing grew exponentially.
As per JLL’s report, housing sales have remained healthy and hit a new peak during the January-September period in 2024 with close to 230,000 homes across the top seven cities worth INR 380,000 crore already sold. This momentum is expected to sustain in 2025, with the housing sector continuing to flourish, supported by strong economic fundamentals, evolving buyer preferences, and favourable policy outlooks. In addition, the peripheral micro-markets around the metro cities are anticipated to have a higher scope for price appreciation, compared to prime areas that have already experienced substantial growth.
Besides, infrastructure development has always been a critical driver of real estate growth, and its significance has never been more pronounced than it is today. As per Anarock, micro-markets like the Dwarka Expressway saw a significant 93 per cent jump in average residential prices, from INR 5,359 per sq ft in 2019 to INR 10,350 per sq ft in Q3 2024. Other developments like the upcoming Jewar International Airport are expected to unlock new markets, boosting connectivity, and driving demand for premium developments. This consistent increase in home prices highlights the strength and stability of the Indian housing sector. Together, these advancements are redefining India’s real estate landscape, paving the way for transformative growth.


Amit Modi, Director, County Group, says, “Within the real sector, luxury and ultra-luxury segments are evolving rapidly. We see immense potential for growth in both established and emerging markets as discerning buyers continue to invest in properties that align with their lifestyle aspirations. Further, trends like branded residences, mixed-use developments, and larger homes are expected to dominate the market. Thus, we anticipate the year 2025 will be very much a year of premium housing and we look forward to delivering projects that meet these expectations while setting new benchmarks in luxury living.”
Moreover, technological advancements like prop-tech, AI, blockchain, and smart home solutions are revolutionizing real estate, with virtual property tours, digital transactions, and automated property management enhancing efficiency and transparency. Simultaneously, the demand for sustainable, eco-friendly, and energy-efficient buildings is reshaping the industry, driven by green building certifications and government initiatives. Modern projects now integrate features like solar panels, rainwater harvesting, and energy-efficient designs to balance luxury with environmental responsibility. Together, these innovations are redefining buyer expectations and setting new benchmarks for a future-ready, sustainable real estate landscape.


Rajjath Goel, Managing Director, MRG Group, says, “The future of real estate lies in sustainable development. From eco-friendly construction practices to energy-efficient designs, these developments align with the global shift towards green building standards. This year, we believe that the demand for sustainable real estate will only rise. We’re focused on creating spaces that not only serve the present but also preserve the environment for future generations.”


Gurpal Singh Chawla, MD, TREVOC, says, “In 2025, luxury housing will be the primary catalyst for real estate growth, continuing the momentum established in the previous year. At the same time, luxury homes are increasingly viewed not only as a lifestyle choice but also as a strategic investment, driving interest from NRIs and HNIs. Additionally, the opening of the Gurugram stretch of the Dwarka Expressway has further enhanced the region’s appeal as a real estate hotspot. Therefore, we expect this development to steer the sector toward a stronger growth trajectory.”


Manit Sethi, Director, Excentia Infra, says, “As we move into 2025, the growth of Tier II and III cities is redefining the real estate landscape, with increasing demand for premium homes driven by aspiring buyers seeking luxury, connectivity, and value. At Excentia Infra, we are committed to delivering high-end residential projects in these emerging markets, blending cutting-edge architecture with sustainability to meet evolving lifestyle aspirations. Our focus on strategic locations ensures exclusivity, comfort, and long-term value appreciation, positioning us as a trusted name in redefining modern living. With the luxury segment thriving across these cities, 2025 will mark a new era of premium housing growth.”
Therefore, India’s real estate sector is on the brink of significant transformation in 2025, driven by advancements in technology, the surge in sustainable practices, and the growing prominence of Tier II and III cities, particularly in the residential segment. The luxury housing market is set to thrive, fueled by discerning buyers and strategic infrastructure developments, redefining urban landscapes with innovation and functionality.
