Revealing this, Knight Frank India in its latest assessment released on Friday pointed out that when viewed through the lens of total transaction value, homes priced above Rs 1 crore contributed a dominant 49 per cent share, underscoring the strong demand for premium properties despite their lower volume share.

The majority of the registered properties in Hyderabad were concentrated in the range of 1,000 to 2,000 sq ft, accounting for 67 per cent of all registrations. Units sized >2,000 sq ft accounted for 18 per cent of the total registrations as compared with the 16 per cent registered during May 2024.

According to Knight Frank India’s assessment, residential property registrations in Hyderabad rose by 2 per cent year-on-year (YoY) and 5 per cent month-on-month (MoM) in May 2025—the first such increase recorded this year. The total value of homes registered has surged by 14 per cent YoY and 4 per cent MoM.

The Hyderabad residential market spans across four districts—Hyderabad, Medchal-Malkajgiri, Rangareddy, and Sangareddy—and includes transactions from both the primary and secondary real estate markets.

At the district level, the Knight Frank report documents Rangareddy accounting for 48 per cent of property registrations, followed by Medchal-Malkajgiri at 37 per cent and Hyderabad district with 15 per cent of total registrations.
