Since mid 2020’s, the Indian housing cycle has been on an upswing. Housing sales have since doubled, and supplies are still only catching up. The Indian housing market has seen volumes surge by ~25% YoY in 2023, doubling in 3-years.
While housing supply has started matching demand in 2023, due to sales velocity, supply is down to near all-time lows of ~16-17 months. This is a 12-year low, across the top 7 cities of India.

However the strong rally in Realty stocks so far, has priced in some of these gains. It is important to note that property sales have favoured premium & luxury housing in this upturn so far. A potential rate cut could actually help the affordable housing segment more.
