Overview

  • Crisil projects housing sales volumes will rise by 5–7% and average prices will increase by 4–6% in fiscal 2025–26.
  • Premium and luxury segments are set to account for 38–40% of new launches in 2025 and 2026.
  • Shares of affordable and mid-income launches are forecast to shrink to 10–12% and 19–20% respectively.
