Mumbai, Maharashtra, 26th of March 2026 : Real Estate Quotes On CBRE Housing Affordability Index.
Mr. Umesh Gowda H A, Chairman and Founder, Sanjeevini Group, a Bengaluru based real estate developer
Bengaluru continues to stand out with one of the highest per capita incomes among Indian cities, supported by a strong presence of domestic and global companies, including GCCs. This has driven sustained job creation and a steady rise in household incomes. As a result, despite property prices increasing by around 10% in both 2024 and 2025, improving income levels and relatively stable interest rates have supported end-user demand in the city. These factors provide developers the flexibility to explore new micro-markets and innovate in project planning without significant price escalation. We remain optimistic that improving affordability will sustain demand, with emerging corridors, particularly in East Bengaluru, expected to witness strong traction going forward.
Mr. Lalit Parihar, MD, Aaiji Group, a real estate company
A favourable monetary environment, moderating housing price growth and rising household incomes are expected to support housing affordability over the next few years, creating a conducive backdrop for sustained demand. However, the ongoing conflict in West Asia introduces near-term uncertainty, with potential upside risks to inflation and interest rates, which could make developers and investors cautious in the short term. That said, the underlying improvement in affordability metrics is likely to support demand over the medium term, even as the market navigates external headwinds.
