📉 Sharp Drop in Unsold Inventory Signals a Seller’s Market

- 🏘️ Noida recorded the sharpest drop: 72% decline in unsold homes
From ~18,148 units in Q1 2020 to just 5,000 in Q1 2025 - 🏘️ Greater Noida saw a 56% reduction in unsold stock
From ~32,000 to ~14,000 units - 📉 Overall NCR Inventory dropped by 51%
From ~1.73 lakh units in 2020 to ~84,500 units in 2025
Additionally, the inventory overhang—a key metric representing the time it would take to sell current stock—plummeted from 88 months in 2020 to just 17 months in Q1 2025.
🏗️ Shift from Affordable to Luxury: Changing Buyer Preferences
Pre-COVID, NCR’s real estate market was largely dominated by affordable housing (below ₹40 lakh). However, post-pandemic trends show a massive tilt towards luxury and ultra-luxury housing:
- 💎 59% of all housing launches in 2024 were priced above ₹2.5 crore
- 💼 In 2020, only 4% of projects were in the ultra-luxury bracket
- 🏢 High-end residential segments now dominate new launches in Noida, Gurgaon, and Dwarka Expressway
Greater Noida West, Noida Sector 150, and Yamuna Expressway are also emerging as luxury corridors with smart city infrastructure, expressway connectivity, and proximity to upcoming developments like Noida International Airport.
🚀 Key Drivers Behind Noida-Greater Noida Boom
Several government-led structural reforms and infrastructure developments have contributed to this real estate revival:
- RERA (Real Estate Regulation and Development Act): Boosted buyer confidence
- SWAMIH Fund: Revived stalled housing projects
- PMAY (Urban): Increased affordable housing demand and completions
- Upcoming Noida International Airport (Jewar): Major game-changer for connectivity and property prices
