The city’s real estate market appears to have hit a phase of stagnation, as property registration data for January 2025 shows little to no growth compared to the same period last year.

According to official data, Mumbai recorded 10,334 property registrations till the afternoon of January 29, 2025, generating a revenue of ₹841 crore from stamp duty collections. In comparison, January 2024 witnessed 10,328 property registrations, bringing in ₹839 crore in stamp duty revenue.

A closer analysis of these figures indicates that property transactions have remained nearly unchanged over the past year. The marginal increase in property registrations suggests a lack of momentum in the market.

Moreover, the stamp duty collections, which are calculated at 6% of the total consideration of the property, also show no significant deviation. This implies that property prices in Mumbai have remained largely stable without any major appreciation over the past year.

Industry experts believe these figures reflect a stagnant market, where demand is neither surging nor declining, and prices have remained at a standstill. This could be due to a combination of factors, including high interest rates, affordability constraints, and cautious buyer sentiment amid economic uncertainties.

Despite the lack of growth, stakeholders remain hopeful that upcoming policy changes or incentives in the real estate sector may stimulate movement in the market. However, as things stand, Mumbai’s property sector appears to be treading water with no clear signs of a breakthrough in sight.

In the next two days of this month, not much is expected.
