India Housing Market: Premium Segment Driving Growth

The Indian housing market reflects a clear shift in momentum. In fact, value growth is outpacing volume. Although the number of homes sold has dipped slightly, overall sales value has reached record levels. This, in turn, is supported by strong demand for premium and luxury housing.

According to the India Housing Report 2026, by CRE Matrix & NAR-INDIA, the average ticket size has increased to around ₹1.47 crore. Buyers are continuing to move toward larger, better-located, and higher-quality homes as a result.
