Gurugram has overtaken Mumbai to become India’s largest market for ultra-luxury homes, signalling a major shift in the country’s high-end property landscape. Homes priced at ₹10 crore and above saw record sales in the NCR city in 2025, both in terms of value and the number of units sold.
According to a recent industry report, Gurugram registered sales of around 1,494 ultra-luxury homes worth more than ₹24,000 crore during the year. This pushed it ahead of Mumbai, which has traditionally dominated the premium housing segment. The sharp rise highlights growing demand for spacious, high-end homes among wealthy buyers, including top executives, entrepreneurs and non-resident Indians.
Real estate experts say the trend is being driven by several factors. Gurugram offers larger apartments and villas, modern gated communities, and newer projects with luxury amenities. Compared to Mumbai, buyers also get more space at a relatively lower price per square foot. Improved infrastructure, proximity to Delhi, and the presence of major corporate offices have further boosted the city’s appeal.
Developers have responded with branded residences, penthouses and high-rise luxury projects, many of which were sold even before completion. Strong interest from NRI investors and high-income professionals has helped maintain steady demand despite high property prices.
Mumbai, while moving to second place, continues to see strong traction in its premium micro-markets such as South Mumbai and parts of the western suburbs. However, limited land availability and higher costs have made large luxury developments more challenging compared to Gurugram.
The report notes that the overall ultra-luxury housing segment in India is expanding rapidly, reflecting rising wealth and a post-pandemic preference for bigger, more exclusive homes.
