India's luxury housing market experiencing a robust growth
India's major eight cities recorded a sale of 170,201 housing units in H1 this year with high-end housing priced above Rs10+ million notching up a robust growth rate of 17 per cent YoY in sales, according to Knight Frank India's periodical survey. New launches at 179,740 units continued to exceed sales during the period, demonstrating developers' continued confidence in long-term demand fundamentals. There is yet another reason for this trend. The uptick in affluence besides India's share of HNIs and UHNIs which is likely to increase from 3 per cent to 9 per cent by 2034. Mumbai remained the largest residential market by volume with sales remaining stable in YoY terms, while NCR (-8 per cent) and Bengaluru (-3 per cent) recorded marginal corrections in sales volumes in H1 2025. Chennai was the only notable exception recording a rise of 12 per cent YoY in H1, 2025. In a significant development, sales in Rs10-20 million rose 8 per cent YoY whereas sales in Rs20-50 million surged 29 per cent YoY in H1. While sales in Rs50-100 million jumped 19 per cent YoY, the trend in sales in the unit price range of Rs 100-200 million rose 128 per cent YoY. To cap it all, luxury housing units in the price range of Rs 200-500 million doubled YoY. NCR-Delhi topped the ultra-luxury housing sales pushing Mumbai to the second slot. Gurugram leads the ultra-luxury segment sales in India. The most noteworthy trend that has prevailed is the premiumisation of the residential segment across the markets. 49 per cent of all home sales were for homes costing Rs 10+ million and above which saw sales of 83,433 units across the key markets, while 51 per cent was in the category of up to Rs 10+ million with sales amounting to 86,768 units in H1 2025. In the housing segment costing less than Rs10 million. Mumbai was the highest contributor with sales of 30,333 units followed by Ahmedabad which recorded sale of 18,083 homes in this price category. 'The residential market in H1 2025 reflected a nuanced shift where premium and luxury segments continued to thrive, even as lower value segments showed signs of continued moderation. Besides, RBI's cumulative 100 bps policy rate cut, and improved liquidity will further help in supporting housing demand, especially at the lower and mid value categories. We expect that these congenial factors along with a positive economic environment will provide longer legs to this market, said Shishir Baijal, CMD, Knight Frank India'. Homes costing less than 50 Lakhs has seen a steady decline in sales. On a pan- India basis, in H1 2025, sales of homes costing up to INR 50 lakh were recorded at 37,796 units, lower by 18 per cent YoY and by 43 per cent since H1 2028. In Bengaluru, this category recorded sales of only 1,583 units indicating a drop of 18 per cent YoY for H1 2025 but when compared to H1 2018, the decline is a significant 85 per cent. The primary challenge for this category has been the declining supply of new homes. H1 2025 saw a total supply of 30,806 units registering a YoY decline of 31 per cent. This is lower than sales by a significant 23 per cent and corroborates the rationale that the dearth of viable supply is a major challenge here. The weighted average prices across the markets saw a rise in H1 2025 both in YoY terms as well as sequentially over preceding 6 months period. Mumbai saw a rise of 8 per cent with the weighted average going up to INR 8,532 per sqft. While NCR (INR 5,535/ sq ft) and Bengaluru (INR 7,052 / Sq ft) both registered a rise of 14 per cent YoY. The Hyderabad market saw a rise of 11 per cent in weighted average prices for the city which was recorded at INR 6,326 / sq ft. These notable rises across the markets have been the result of larger inventory launches in higher value homes in the recent times which has moved the averages northwards. I have been looking at additional investment in real estate. Is current trend of tax benefits favourable for real estate investment? Ashita Aju, Sharjah. Yes. NRIs are eligible for tax benefits on rental income from their properties. They can claim deductions for home loan principal repayments and interest payments. Additionally, the Double Taxation Avoidance Agreement (DTAA) ensures that NRIs do not have to pay tax twice on the same income, making real estate investments more tax-efficient. Tax treaties with specific countries like UAE might offer further benefits. I have invested in real estate in India and planning to mortgage to raise short-term funds. Does it require approval from the authorities? Please clarify. Amit Kak, Sharjah. You can mortgage the commercial property to an authorised dealer/housing finance institution in India without the need to get any approval from the authorities. You can also mortgage to a party abroad but with prior approval of Reserve Bank of India.

Luxury doesn't shout
Not long ago, I stood on the edge of Palm Jumeirah, Dubai's renowned man-made island, watching our team activate the last of six towering digital unipoles. I remember the feeling – this wasn't just another advertising platform. It was a moment that captured what luxury advertising should feel like. No clutter. No noise. Just unmatched prestige, in one of the most iconic destinations in the world. We call them 'The Royals'. And there's a reason for that. Advertising, especially in luxury, has always been a game of context. The right brand in the wrong place loses more than attention; it loses meaning. What we built at Palm Jumeirah is a response to that. A curated environment – zero clutter, and full impact. Not one other media asset stands within a square kilometre of these six digital landmarks. Each screen rises 15 metres high, stretching 8 metres across, positioned with surgical accuracy at the entrance and exit to Palm Jumeirah – the driveway of the elite. The location attracts more than 30,000 high-income residents – some arrive in Rolls-Royces, others via yachts – Michelin-star diners, A-list celebrities, and global executives who don't just consume luxury, but define it. These are not passing glances; they are purposeful audiences. And that's where the real value lies. Luxury brands understood this from day one. Chanel was first, followed by Bvlgari, Hermes, Tiffany & Co., BMW and Rolex. These aren't just advertisers; they're curators of culture. They chose 'The Royals' media network not because they needed another screen. They chose it because they needed a stage. Luxury doesn't play games. It doesn't shout. It doesn't hustle. It whispers in the right places, knowing the right people are already listening. We've seen more than 177 million monthly impressions. More than 428,000 unique high-value individuals have been reached. But that's not the whole story. What matters more is the quality of those impressions. The intention. The exclusivity. These aren't drive-by views. They're premium engagements – measured, verified, optimised. Thanks to our sister company DXTA Technology operating under the umbrella of W Group Holding, each campaign runs on audience measurement and data analytics. We use predictive mobility models, not guesswork. We map real exposure, not just footfall. And the result: Less waste, more impact. But data is only part of the picture. 'The Royals' network wasn't easy. We built it in one month. That's unheard of. We overcame engineering headaches, logistical puzzles and regulatory labyrinths. We laid power lines under an island bridge. We negotiated with monorail operators and worked through sandstorms – at 2 am, under floodlights, with surgical focus. We didn't cut corners. We cut through barriers. Why? Because luxury deserves better than 'good enough'. As the industry keeps chasing bigger, faster and louder, I believe the future of luxury advertising will swing back to something quieter. Sharper. More intentional. 'The Royals' are a glimpse of that future. In a city obsessed with luxury, we asked ourselves: How do you elevate a brand in a way that feels as rare and powerful as the brand itself? We found our answer in simplicity … and placement. From the start, we made every decision with intention. From the elegant minimalism of the structure to the anti-glare lighting designed not to intrude but to compliment the Palm's unique architecture. From sustainable construction materials to premium, energy-efficient LED screens that display only the most refined campaigns. Luxury brands are selective for a reason. Their customers don't respond to volume. They respond to value, to context, to craft. A Chanel bag isn't about stitching and leather. It's about identity. The same goes for luxury advertising. And that's what 'The Royals' give them: not just space, but significance. What's interesting is how many people tell me that they remember exactly which brand they saw the last time they drove past 'The Royals'. That's rare. We're so used to ignoring ads. But when the environment is curated, when there's no clutter, people pay attention. They don't just see the brand; they experience it. That's the future of luxury media, if you ask me. It's not about bigger budgets or louder screens. It's about less, fewer distractions, sharper impact. It's about creating room for prestige to breathe. Brands don't need more space. They need better space. Focused space. Premium space. And above all, meaningful space. And that's what 'The Royals' offer. By Philip Matta, CEO, Hypermedia
