A CBRE-ASSOCHAM report reported that luxury housing sales jumped 85 per cent in the first half of 2025, with NCR contributing more than half of those transactions.

As 2025 is set to end in a few days, activity in the premium housing market has gathered pace. Properties in the Rs 1 crore–plus bracket have found steady takers through the year, mostly from families looking for more space or a better neighbourhood. Developers say many of these buyers began their search early in the year and stayed active regardless of season, which helped sustain sales across quarters. A CBRE-ASSOCHAM report reported that luxury housing sales jumped 85 per cent in the first half of 2025, with NCR contributing more than half of those transactions.

That momentum also filtered into the luxury bracket. Homes priced at Rs 4 crore and above, once restricted to a handful of sectors, now attract interest across a wider stretch of the region. Market reports show that demand for high-end homes has been rising for some time. ANAROCK's data highlights the scale of this growth, with average luxury prices moving from about Rs 13,450 per square foot in 2022 to nearly Rs 23,100 in 2025. Brokers in Gurgaon and Noida say buyers in this range are particular about layout planning, finishes and the reputation of the developer.

Infrastructure development has played a steady role in shaping where buyers look. Road extensions, metro connectivity and commercial hubs have collectively pulled demand toward areas that were previously considered peripheral. Goa, in particular, has seen a sharp uptick in interest from both end-users and investors seeking a combination of lifestyle value and rental yield.

GHD Group's developments across North Goa, including Porvorim and Thivim corridors, have benefited from this trend. With hospitality-led residential concepts gaining ground, the group has positioned its offerings at the intersection of premium living and managed returns — a model that continues to draw attention from buyers across metros.
