Mumbai Housing Sales Reach 31,750 Units in Q3-2026

The Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) continued to lead India’s major residential markets in the third quarter of 2026, recording around 31,750 housing sales. Bengaluru followed with approximately 16,670 units sold during the same period.

Together, MMR and Bengaluru accounted for nearly 48% of total housing sales across India’s top seven cities in Q3 2026, highlighting the strong demand for homes in these two major real estate markets.

The figures are part of ANAROCK Research’s Q3 2026 analysis, which tracks housing activity across MMR, Delhi NCR, Bengaluru, Pune, Hyderabad, Chennai and Kolkata.

Housing Sales Reach More Than 1 Lakh Units

Housing sales across the seven leading cities increased by about 3% year over year in Q3 2026. Around 1,00,220 homes were sold during the quarter, compared with approximately 97,080 units in Q3 2025.

The overall value of residential sales also increased during the period. Housing sales were estimated at around INR 1.55 lakh crore in Q3 2026, compared with approximately INR 1.52 lakh crore a year earlier.

The growth indicates that homebuyer demand remained steady despite higher property prices and changing affordability conditions.

MMR Records the Highest New Housing Supply

Mumbai Metropolitan Region also led the seven major cities in new housing launches during Q3 2026.

Around 37,500 new housing units were launched across MMR during the quarter. Hyderabad ranked second, with approximately 18,950 new units added to the market.

Overall, new housing supply across the seven cities increased by around 18% compared with the same quarter last year. The increase reflects continued developer activity and the launch of new residential projects across major urban markets.

Housing Inventory Increases Across Major Cities

The supply of available housing units also grew during the quarter. Total residential inventory across the seven cities increased by around 12% annually.

Available inventory rose from more than 5,61,760 units at the end of Q3 2025 to over 6,30,590 units by the end of Q3 2026.

At the same time, average residential prices across the major cities increased by approximately 7% compared with Q3 2025. The rise in prices shows that property values continued to move upward even as buyers became more careful about their purchasing decisions.

Festive Season Could Support Housing Demand

The upcoming festive season is expected to provide additional support to the residential market as developers continue to bring new projects and housing offers to buyers.

ANAROCK Group Chairman Anuj Puri said buyers are likely to remain selective because of higher prices and affordability concerns. However, stable borrowing costs, festive demand and a strong pipeline of new housing launches could help maintain sales momentum.

Projects with suitable pricing, convenient locations and features that match current buyer requirements are expected to receive stronger attention from homebuyers during the festive period.

With MMR recording the highest housing sales and new supply among the seven major cities, Mumbai’s wider real estate market continues to play an important role in India’s residential property sector.
