NEW DELHI: Sales of affordable homes — priced up to Rs 60 lakh each — declined 4 per cent in eight major cities to 61,121 units during January-March this year on lower supply and higher demand for luxury apartments, according to PropEquity. The top eight cities are — Delhi-NCR, Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai, Kolkata, Pune and Ahmedabad.
Real estate data analytic firm PropEquity data showed that sales of homes, costing up to Rs 60 lakh each stood at 6,3787 units in the January-March period of the last calendar year.
A lower supply of affordable homes is one of the key factors for this marginal fall in sales.
As per the PropEquity data, the fresh supply of homes, up to Rs 60 lakh each, declined to 33,420 units during January-March 2024 across these top eight cities from 53,818 units in the year-ago period.
