According to Shishir Baijal, Chairman and Managing Director, Knight Frank India, the city which saw a significant rise in demand until mid of 2022, has seen a drop in registration in year October. “The rise in home loan interest rate in the last three quarters along with strong headwinds caused by the global geo-political tensions has started affecting the consumers,” he remarked.
Samson Arthur, Senior Branch Director, Knight Frank India said the Hyderabad residential sector grew stronger last year due to a supportive socioeconomic environment, advanced infrastructure, and a business-friendly administration. This continued throughout this year despite a certain slowdown in sales.
