Hyderabad’s residential property market witnessed a year-on-year (YoY) decline in unit registrations in June 2025, but the overall transaction value of homes increased, driven largely by the growing demand for premium housing. According to data compiled by Knight Frank India from the Inspector General of Registration (IGR), 6,391 housing units were registered in June, marking a 9% drop from the 7,056 units recorded in June 2024. However, on a month-on-month (MoM) basis, registrations increased by 3%, up from 6,062 units in May 2025.
Despite the contraction in transaction volumes, the total value of home sales surged to ₹4,587 crore in June 2025, reflecting a 6% rise from ₹4,314 crore in the same month last year and a 7% increase from ₹4,302 crore in May. This divergence between volume and value trends indicates a growing shift in buyer preferences toward high-end residential properties.
The Hyderabad property market comprises four key districts—Hyderabad, Medchal-Malkajgiri, Rangareddy, and Sangareddy. These zones encompass a wide spectrum of residential inventory across both primary and secondary markets. The June figures indicate that despite fewer registrations, homebuyers are increasingly purchasing larger and more expensive homes, pushing up the overall market value.
A detailed price-segment breakdown reveals that premium homes priced above ₹1 crore recorded the strongest performance. Registrations in this category rose 35% YoY to 1,362 units, representing 21% of the total registered units for the month. These high-value transactions accounted for 51% of the total market value in June 2025, signaling Hyderabad’s accelerating emergence as a high-end residential destination.
In contrast, more affordable housing segments saw weaker performance. Units priced below ₹50 lakh, which traditionally dominate volume, recorded 3,342 registrations, while homes priced between ₹50 lakh and ₹1 crore accounted for 1,687 registrations. These segments together still made up a majority of total transactions—52% and 26% respectively—but both segments registered a decline in unit volumes compared to last year, reflecting a shifting buyer base.
Knight Frank’s analysis further shows a rising demand for spacious homes. Properties with sizes ranging from 1,000 to 2,000 square feet accounted for the bulk of the activity, making up 68% of total registrations in June. Homes larger than 2,000 square feet saw increased traction as well, capturing a 17% share of all registered units, up from 14% in June 2024. The growing preference for larger living spaces may be attributed to post-pandemic lifestyle changes and greater emphasis on home-office compatibility and recreational space.
The weighted average price of registered properties in the Hyderabad market increased by 15% YoY. Rangareddy district, in particular, stood out with a 20% annual increase in average prices, indicating robust demand and escalating land values in the area. The district continues to attract interest due to its growing infrastructure, relative affordability compared to core city areas, and presence of large-format residential developments.
Commenting on the trend, Shishir Baijal, Chairman and Managing Director of Knight Frank India, noted that Hyderabad is undergoing a significant transformation in its residential profile. “In June 2025, homes priced above ₹1 crore contributed over half of the total transaction value, highlighting the city’s shifting buyer preferences. We expect the market to maintain pace now that key demand drivers like home loan rates and economic growth are more favourable,” he said.
The data also comes amid broader efforts by regulatory authorities to enforce greater transparency in the real estate sector. In June, Telangana RERA fined a Hyderabad developer ₹4.2 lakh for promoting a real estate project without proper registration, reinforcing the regulatory push for compliance.
Hyderabad’s property market appears poised for further consolidation in favour of premium housing, even as the affordable and mid-income segments face demand-side challenges. Rising land prices, increased construction costs, and evolving buyer expectations will continue to shape the market’s direction in the coming months.
