Mumbai Property Registrations Hit 14-Year September High Amid Festive Demand
Mumbai sold and registered more homes and properties in September than it has in that month for over 14 years.
There were 12,622 registrations.
This was 5% more than in September last year.
The Ganesh Chaturthi festival helped increase activity.
During the festival period, 5,379 properties were registered.
However, the city collected less total stamp duty than it did a year earlier.
Knight Frank India said buyers are still interested but are choosing carefully.
Buyers appear especially interested in projects with good connections and infrastructure.
Mumbai recorded 12,622 property registrations in September, up 5% year-on-year and the highest September total in more than 14 years.
September registrations were slightly above August’s 12,580 units and exceeded the 12,070 recorded in September last year.
Stamp duty collections fell 5% year-on-year to Rs 1,227 crore, despite continued housing demand.
During the September 14–25 Ganesh Chaturthi period, 5,379 properties were registered, up 22% year-on-year and the highest festive-period total in four years.
Festive-period stamp duty collections rose 32% year-on-year to Rs 640 crore, accounting for more than half of September’s total revenue.
