At the district level, the study shows that home sales registrations in the Medchal-Malkajgiri district were recorded at 44 per cent followed by Rangareddy district at 38 per cent while the share of Hyderabad district in total registrations was at 14 per cent.
In terms of year-on-year comparison, the home sales registrations in Hyderabad district which was 14 per cent last August remained the same in August 2022 too. However, in the Medchal-Malkajgiri district during the same period (August 2021 to August 2022), the registrations rose from 39 per cent to 44 per cent.

Meanwhile, Knight Frank India noted that Hyderabad recorded registrations of 5,181 units of residential properties in August 2022, up by 20 per cent month-on-month (MoM). The demand and registrations returned in August 2022 after witnessing a decline in the previous month on account of Ashada Maasam, considered less auspicious for new projects. The total value of properties transacted in August 2022 stood at Rs 2,658 crore, also registering a growth of 26 per cent MoM. Since the beginning of the year, the city has observed sales of 46,078 residential units with a total worth of Rs 22,680 crore.

Greater demand for larger ticket size homes remained evident as the cumulative share of sales registrations for properties with ticket sizes of Rs 50 lakh increased to 29 per cent in August 2022 from 28 per cent in August 2021, Knight Frank India recorded in its assessment.
The segment of sales in unit sizes over 1,000 sft maintained its share at an approximate 83 per cent of all home sales registrations in August 2022. Homes in the size of 1,000 – 2,000 sft were 72 per cent of all sales registered during the period. The trend that was set during the pandemic by the consumers to upgrade their property and move into larger living quarters, continued to hold strong in August 2022 as well.
Shishir Baijal, Chairman and Managing Director, Knight Frank India, said, “August 2022 witnessed an increase of 20 per cent MoM in both residential registrations as well as state earnings from home registrations while observing a reduction of 36 per cent on YoY basis.”
Despite the impact of external factors including an increase in interest rates and price, the Hyderabad residential market continues to experience robust demand trends, he said while adding, “going ahead, we expect home demand to remain stable as end-users continue to be drawn to home purchases backed by job security, rising household incomes and savings.”
