"Mumbai's luxury housing market has performed exceedingly well during the last year. This is  pretty much in line with the sales velocity for luxury homes we have witnessed across the globe, including global gateway cities like London, New York and Dubai. We believe, this is just the beginning of a very positive and bullish residential real estate cycle,” said Ashwin Chadha, President, India Sotheby's International Realty.

In Mumbai, several factors have aided strong sales, especially discounts offered by builders and incentives by way of waiver in stamp duty given by Maharashtra government, added Chadha.

"Housing prices have remained more or less stagnant since the last 5-6 years across all segments and price brackets. The well informed HNI buyers have used this as an opportunity to buy right priced assets for wealth creation. We are already witnessing prices firm up and starting to rise," said Mr. Abhishek Kiran Gupta, CEO and Co-Founder, CRE Matrix.

The concept of home ownership has gained tremendous importance during this pandemic. Consumers are looking to buy bigger and better homes from branded developers who have a decent track record of executing projects on time.

"During the lockdowns, HNIs and ultra HNIs got the much-needed break to analyze and strengthen their real estate portfolio," added Abhishek Kiran Gupta.

The sales trend is likely to remain buoyant even during this year as 306 luxury housing units worth Rs 4,877 crore have already been sold in Mumbai during the January-March quarter of 2022 calendar year.
