India's largest housing markets continued to see steady price gains in the July to September quarter, with the country's top eight cities recording annual growth of between 7 and 19 per cent.

The data, published in PropTiger.com's Real Insight Residential report for Q3-2025, points to firm end-user demand, rising construction costs and limited ready-to-move supply as the primary drivers behind this momentum.

Although sales volumes softened slightly, the value of homes sold surged, reflecting a stronger shift towards premium and luxury projects.

Delhi-NCR recorded the highest year-on-year increase at 19 per cent, taking the average price to 8,900 rupees per square foot, up from Rs7,479 a year earlier. Quarter-on-quarter growth stood at 9.8 per cent, supported by demand for higher-end units and a series of infrastructure upgrades that continue to influence buyer behaviour.
