“Developers were cautious in Q2. MMR led supply but cut back compared to last year due to high inventory and price pressures,” said Puri.
📉 Inventory & Price Trends: MMR Holds Despite Pressure
Unsold inventory across India marginally increased to 5.62 lakh units, while MMR still has one of the highest volumes. Yet, price hikes across cities continued, with NCR seeing a 27% YoY rise and Bengaluru 12%. MMR held steady with modest quarterly movement.
“If prices remain under control and interest rates stay low, we could see a rebound in Q3,” Puri added.
📊 Segment Focus: Luxury Still Leads New Supply
- 46% of new launches were in the luxury & ultra-luxury segment (>INR 1.5 Cr)
- Mid (INR 40–80 lakh) and Premium (INR 80 lakh–1.5 Cr) segments saw 21% each
- Affordable housing contributed just 12%
MMR continues to focus heavily on mid and upper-mid segment housing, catering to aspirational buyers and investors alike.
