Hyderabad’s residential real estate market continued to display steady performance in March 2026, with total property registrations reaching ₹4,637 crore, according to the latest report by Knight Frank India. The data highlights stable housing demand in Hyderabad, supported by consistent buyer activity and a growing shift toward higher-value residential properties.
Residential Property Registrations in Hyderabad: Volume Trends
A total of 6,386 residential units were registered in March 2026, marking a 1% year-on-year (YoY) growth and a 3% increase compared to February 2026. While the rise in registration volumes remains modest, it reflects a stable and resilient housing market in Hyderabad, even amid evolving buyer preferences and macroeconomic conditions.
The steady volume performance indicates that end-user demand continues to anchor the market, with buyers actively participating across mid-income and premium housing segments. Compared to the softer activity recorded in January 2026, March figures signal a recovery in overall transaction momentum.
Property Value Growth Driven by Premium Housing Demand
In contrast to relatively flat volume growth, the total value of residential registrations recorded a stronger increase, rising 4% YoY and 12% month-on-month (MoM). This divergence between volume and value underscores a key trend shaping Hyderabad’s real estate market: premiumisation.
Demand for homes priced above ₹1 crore has seen a noticeable uptick, contributing significantly to the overall transaction value. Larger homes, gated communities, and projects offering lifestyle amenities are increasingly preferred by buyers, particularly in the post-pandemic environment where space and quality of living remain key decision factors.
This trend aligns with broader patterns observed across India’s top metro housing markets, where affluent buyers and investors are driving growth in high-ticket residential transactions.
Shishir Baijal, Chairman and Managing Director of Knight Frank India, noted:
Hyderabad’s residential market continues to demonstrate stability, building on the recovery seen in previous months. The 1% year-on-year increase in registrations reflects steady underlying demand, even as monthly trends remain dynamic. The move toward premiumization is a clear indicator of growing buyer confidence in the city's long-term economic depth.
Key Locations Driving Hyderabad Housing Market Activity
District-level data shows that Rangareddy, Medchal-Malkajgiri, and Hyderabad districts together accounted for the bulk of property registrations in March 2026. These regions continue to dominate residential activity due to their strategic advantages.
Key growth drivers in these micro-markets include:
Proximity to IT and commercial hubs
Ongoing infrastructure development projects
Improved road and metro connectivity
Availability of large-scale residential developments
Suburban and peripheral areas, in particular, are witnessing sustained traction as they offer relatively better affordability along with modern housing options, attracting both first-time buyers and upgrade seekers.
Conclusion
The March 2026 residential registration data reinforces Hyderabad’s position as one of India’s most stable and demand-driven real estate markets. While the number of transactions has grown at a measured pace, the consistent rise in overall property values points to strengthening buyer confidence and a clear shift toward premium housing.
With infrastructure expansion, employment growth, and evolving buyer preferences continuing to shape demand, Hyderabad’s residential real estate sector remains well-positioned for steady and value-led growth in the coming months.
