The total value of homes registered has surged by 14% YoY and 4% MoM. The report highlighted that registrations for homes priced above Rs 1 crore grew sharply by 37% YoY, accounting for 19% of total registrations. The Hyderabad residential market spans four districts—Hyderabad, Medchal-Malkajgiri, Rangareddy and Sangareddy and includes transactions from both the primary and secondary real estate markets. A total of 6,177 residential properties worth Rs 4,302 crore were registered in May 2025 as compared to 6,062 units worth Rs 3,760 crore in May 2024.
Trends for high-value apartments
The report stated that the percentage share of home registrations in the Rs 1 cr and above category rose from 14% in May 2024 to 19% in May 2025, with sales volume in this segment increasing sharply by 37% YoY. In contrast, homes priced below Rs 50 lakh and those in the Rs 50 lakh to 1 cr range witnessed a decline in volumes despite continuing to account for 55% and 26% of total sales, respectively. Interestingly, when viewed through the lens of total transaction value, homes priced above Rs 1 cr contributed a dominant 49% share, underscoring the strong demand for premium properties despite their lower volume share.
Registration split by unit size
The majority of the registered properties in Hyderabad were concentrated in the range of 1,000 to 2,000 square foot (sqft), accounting for 67% of all registrations. Units sized above 2,000 sqft accounted for 18% of the total registrations as compared with the 16% registered during May 2024.
Registration split by district
At the district level, Rangareddy accounted for 48% of property registrations, followed by Medchal-Malkajgiri at 37%. Hyderabad district contributed the remaining 15% of total registrations.
The weighted average price of transacted residential properties witnessed a YoY increase of 10% during May 2025. Among the districts, Sangareddy and Rangareddy experienced the most increase of 21% YoY and 12% YoY, respectively.
Beyond the concentration of bulk transactions, homebuyers also purchased plush properties featuring larger sizes and superior amenities. The top five deals in May 2025 involved properties valued above Rs 6 crore, each exceeding 3,000 sq ft in size. Four of these transactions were recorded in West Hyderabad, while one was in Central Hyderabad.
Shishir Baijal, chairman and managing director, Knight Frank India said, “Hyderabad’s residential market showed encouraging signs of revival in May 2025, marking the first rise in home registrations this year. The remarkable 37% YoY growth in sales of homes priced above Rs 1 crore, reflect a clear shift in buyer preference toward larger, high-value residences. With the total value of registered homes rising 14% YoY, highlight the city’s evolving aspirations for premium living, backed by improved infrastructure and a rising demand for lifestyle-centric spaces.”
