Despite global economic headwinds, including layoffs by several large and small corporates, the bull run in the Indian housing market continued in the first quarter of the year. Quarterly housing sales are at an all-time high in the last decade, with approx. 1,13,770 units sold in Q1 2023 across the top seven cities, reveals the latest Anarock data. There is a 14 per cent yearly rise against approx. 99,550 units sold back in Q1 2022. The two leading western markets (MMR and Pune) accounted for over 48 per cent of the total sales in the top seven cities, with Pune witnessing an over 42 per cent yearly jump.
