Hyderabad real estate market continues to decline in 2025

The assessment’s data reveals that the number of residential properties registered in January 2025 stood at 5,444 as against 5,454 registrations in January 2024. The drop might appear small but it apparently reflects the prevailing real estate market sentiments

Hyderabad: The growth story of Hyderabad real estate continues to totter with uncertain progression with the beginning of the year 2025 failing to bring in much cheer for the sector. In terms of year-on-year growth, the data on registrations of residential properties for January doesn’t show any growth and in fact, records a slight decline.

In its latest assessment, Knight Frank India notes that the city’s premiumization trend continued, with a notable rise in high-value home sales featuring larger living spaces and enhanced amenities.

However, the assessment’s data reveals that the number of residential properties registered in January 2025 stood at 5,444 as against 5,454 registrations in January 2024. The drop might appear small but it apparently reflects the prevailing real estate market sentiments.

The Knight Frank India’s assessment for Hyderabad released on Tuesday shows that properties priced under Rs.50 lakh dominated registrations, but a strong shift toward premiumisation has emerged with homes priced at Rs.1 crore and above increasing by 12 per cent YoY during January 2025 reflecting a growing preference for higher-value properties.

In January 2025, a total of 3,282 residential properties under Rs.50 lakh were registered whereas the same period last year, i.e., January 2024 had 3,387 registrations, a drop of 3 per cent.

However, according to the Knight Frank India data, the registrations of residential properties above Rs.1 crore have gone up from 738 last January to 823 this January, a 12 per cent rise.

The assessment points out that majority of the registered properties in Hyderabad were concentrated in the range of 1,000 to 2,000 sft, accounting for 69 per cent of all registrations.

At the district level, Medchal-Malkajgiri accounted for 45 per cent of property registrations closely followed by Rangareddy with 41 per cent while Hyderabad district contributed the remaining 14 per cent of total registrations.

Shishir Baijal, Chairman and Managing Director, Knight Frank India said, “The demand for high-value homes continues to rise, with registrations for properties priced above Rs.1 crore surging by 12 per cent YoY. This trend highlights the growing preference for premium living, driven by strong economic fundamentals and evolving lifestyle aspirations.”
