The sale of ultra-luxury homes – units priced over INR 40 Cr each – remained unabated in 2024 despite spiralling prices. Latest ANAROCK data finds that a total of 25 ultra-luxury homes were sold in Mumbai, Hyderabad, Gurugram and Bengaluru in the first 8 months of 2024 for a collective sales value of approx. INR 2,443 Cr. Pune, Chennai and Kolkata did not witness any sales in this rarified price bracket.
Anuj Puri, Chairman – ANAROCK Group, says, “The whole of 2023 saw about 61 deals with a cumulative sales value of approx. INR 4,456 Cr in Mumbai, Hyderabad, and Gurugram. With four months remaining in 2024 and the festive quarter from October to December ongoing, we are likely to see more such large ticket-size residential deals happening before the year is through.”
Of the total of 25 ultra-luxury homes sold in 2024 so far, at least 20 were high-rise apartments worth approx. INR 1,694 Cr. The remaining five sales were of bungalows cumulatively worth about INR 748.5 Cr.
Amid the unprecedented rise in demand for ultra-luxury trophy homes in the last two years, Mumbai tops the list of cities with maximum sales of such properties, despite it being by far the most expensive residential market in India. The financial capital unfailingly attracts HNIs and ultra-HNIs who buy ultra-luxury homes for investment, personal use, or both.
“Notably, the average ticket price of homes priced >INR 40 Crore have witnessed a 2% rise in the last 8 months – from INR 1,00,208 per sq. ft. in 2023 to INR 1,02,458 per sq. ft. in August 2024,” says Puri. “A deeper dive into the data reveals that homes priced >INR 100 crore have seen a 14% price jump in the last eight months alone – from INR 1,24,697 per sq. ft. in 2023-end to INR 1,41,904 per sq. ft. in 2024 till date. This double-digit price appreciation in this segment even before the year concludes stands testimony to the unrelenting appetite for trophy homes. Not surprisingly, leading Grade A developers have scaled up ultra-luxury homes supply in the last few years.”
