India's biggest and most costly real estate market, Mumbai, started the 2024 festival season with strong Navratri property registrations. Between October 3 and 11, the city registered 5,199 properties, a 13.2% increase over Navratri 2023.

The largest slum in India, Dharavi, is undergoing a tremendous change. Adani Group and state government joint venture Dharavi Redevelopment Project Ltd. (DRPPL) has chosen 540 acres of suburban property to move 'ineligible' inhabitants for free homes.

Since the Indian housing market is middle-class, house loan interest rates greatly impact home buying emotion. Individuals and families intending to purchase a house (one of the major choices of their life) must also consider interest rates and EMI expenses.

Despite a rise in interest rates and property prices, stamp duty collection in February for the country's biggest and most costly real estate market, Mumbai, reached a record high. The record collection was driven by premium and middle-income housing categories.
