Housing supply in the top 15 Tier-2 cities, including four cities of Gujarat, Ahmedabad, Gandhinagar, Surat, and Vadodara, fell by a whopping 35% to 30,155 units in the January-March period of 2025, with 48% of the supply in the ₹50L-1 crore price range, said a report by NSE-listed real estate data analytics firm PropEquity.
The supply stood at 45,901 units, with 36% of the launches in the price range of ₹50L-1crore in Q1 2024. Bhubaneshwar witnessed the highest decline, at 72% to 772 units in Q1 2025, while Nashik saw the least decline, at 2% to 2466 units.
In the Ahmedabad real estate market, the supply fell by 35% to 11,096 units from 17,108 units in Q1 2024. In terms of supply going up, Coimbatore is the only city witnessing a 127% increase in housing supply from 477 to 1,077, the report said.

The report further added that Eastern and Central India, with a 68% fall in new launches in Q1 2025, saw the highest decline, followed by 55% in Northern India, 28% in Western India and 26% in Southern India. The seven State Capitals in the top 15 tier 2 cities saw a 43% decline in supply in Q1 2025.
Samir Jasuja, Founder and CEO, PropEquity, said, 'The decline in supply is a result of a cautious approach and shifting priorities by developers. Financially robust developers with a strong balance sheet look to launch premium homes in order to increase their profit margin. As a result, the supply of homes under ₹50 lakh has seen a consistent decline due to its unviability. Meanwhile, homes priced between ₹1-2 crore have seen supply share increasing from 18% to 23%.'
'With home loan rates hovering around 8-8.5%, the recent reduction of 50bps in repo rate by the RBI will further drive down the home loan rates, thereby providing an impetus in the ₹50L-2cr priced homes in tier 2 cities," Jasuja said.
'The tier 2 cities present a huge opportunity for corporates and developers as massive infrastructure development and the government's focus on making these cities as growth drivers will enable end-user demand," Jasuja said.

Housing units priced under ₹2 crore accounted for 95% of the total supply in Q1 2025, up from 87% in the same period last year.
The report said the supply of units priced under ₹50 lakh more than halved to 7,124 units in Q1 2025, as against 15420 units in the same period last year. Its share of the total supply fell from 33% to 24% in Q1 2025.
Similarly, the supply of units priced between ₹50 lakh and ₹1 crore dipped by 12%, and its share rose from 36% to 48% in Q1 2025. The supply of units priced between ₹1-2 cr fell by 17% and its share rose from 18% to 23% in Q1 2025.

Rs 2,000 denomination fake currency notes dip, but Rs 500 counterfeit notes spike in FY25

Chennai: Dip in Rs 2,000 denomination counterfeit notes contributed to the reduction in the value of fake banknotes detected by banks and Reserve Bank, but there was a rise in Rs 500 Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICN) during FY25, RBI data showed. Banknotes of Rs 2,000 denomination were withdrawn from circulation in May 2023, though it continues to be legal tender. The counterfeit notes detected in the denominations of Rs 10, Rs 20, Rs 50, Rs 100 and Rs 2,000 declined in 2024-25, while those in Rs 200 and Rs 500 denominations increased by 13.9% and 37.3%, respectively, when compared with the previous year (FY24). A total number of 2,17,396 FICNs was detected by banks and Reserve Bank in FY25, recording a marginal drop by 2.3% in FY24 at 2,22,639 FICNs. However, it does not include counterfeit notes seized by the police and other enforcement agencies, India's central bank said in its annual report for 2024-25. According to data, Rs 500 FICNs increased from 85,722 in FY24 to 1,17,727 in FY25. Its value rose from around Rs 4.3 crore to Rs 5.9 crore, respectively. Subsequently, the number of Rs 2,000 denomination counterfeit notes plunged by 86.5% YoY at 3,508 in FY25 from 26,035 in FY24. Its value decreased to Rs 70 lakh in FY25 from Rs 5.2 crore in FY24. Further, 32,660 numbers of Rs 200 FICNs and 51,069 in the Rs 100 denomination were detected in the last fiscal (FY25). Out of the total FICNs detected in the banking sector in 2024-25, 95.3% was detected by banks and the rest 4.7% was detected at the Reserve Bank. The report said, a Currency Research and Development Centre (CRDC) has been set up under the administrative control of Bharatiya Reserve Bank Note Mudran (BRBNMPL) for conducting advanced testing of security features of Indian banknotes, counterfeit deterrence tests, forensic/scientific analysis of forged notes, ethical counterfeiting of notes by using latest available tools and technologies and for the development of security/design features for Indian banknotes. Former president of Bank Employees Federation of India C J Nandakumar said, the rise in Rs 500 FICNs indicates the circulation of counterfeit notes. 'Criminals have become sophisticated in designing fake notes with features that even escape from being identified by sorting machines. Apart from issuing guidelines, the regulator must also initiate more stringent actions and supervise to end the menace of FICNs,' he added.
