Bengaluru emerges as a global luxury real estate hotspot; Ranks 4th in prime housing growth, Mumbai 6th, and Delhi 15th
Indian luxury housing markets have emerged as global outperformers, with Bengaluru, Mumbai, and Delhi ranking among the top 15 cities in Knight Frank's Prime Global Cities Index (PGCI) for Q2 2025. Bengaluru, driven by tech wealth, secured the 4th spot with a 10.2% year-on-year rise in prime property values. Mumbai, backed by infrastructure upgrades, ranked 6th with 8.7% growth, while Delhi placed 15th with 3.9% on steady luxury demand. Bengaluru rose 10.2% to rank 4th, Mumbai grew 8.7% at 6th, and Delhi 3.9% at 15th in Knight Frank's Q2 index, driven by tech wealth, infra upgrades, and luxury demand. (Representational Image)(ChatGPT) Bengaluru ranked 4th worldwide with a 10.2% year-on-year rise in prime property values, while Mumbai placed 6th with 8.7% growth and Delhi 15th with 3.9%. Globally, Seoul led the rankings with a sharp 25.2% annual increase, followed by Tokyo (16.3%) and Dubai (15.8%), the report said. Knight Frank's PGCI tracks movements in prime residential prices across 46 global cities using valuation-based data from its research network. Also Read: Bengaluru, Mumbai, Delhi among top 15 global cities for prime residential price growth: Knight Frank report The report noted that despite a slowdown in luxury housing markets globally, where average prime price growth eased to 2.3% annually from 3.5% in Q1, Indian cities have remained resilient. Strong demand, limited prime supply, and rising wealth creation in urban centres have supported prices. Shishir Baijal, chairman and managing director of Knight Frank India, said Bengaluru's tech-driven wealth, Mumbai's infrastructure upgrades, and Delhi's steady luxury demand have kept India in the global spotlight. He said that continued economic stability and urban redevelopment will likely sustain growth in the months ahead. Liam Bailey, Global Head of Research at Knight Frank, said the global cooling reflects shifting expectations on borrowing costs, with markets now showing a more fragmented pattern. 'Prime markets are taking a collective breath. The recovery we have seen over recent quarters was aided by the expectation of lower borrowing costs, and with that timeline now pushed out, a cooling in price growth is inevitable. We're seeing a more fragmented market, with some European cities showing surprising strength while former high-flyers in Asia begin to level off," Bailey said.

GST reforms hopes, S&P upgrade lift Sensex, Nifty 50: Which sectors to invest in and how far can the rally go? Explained
The Indian stock market surged on Monday, August 18, driven by easing global headwinds and domestic policy optimism. Investors cheered hopes of a possible resolution to the Russia-Ukraine conflict, indications from US President Donald Trump about reconsidering secondary tariffs on India, and S&P's upgrade of India's sovereign credit rating. The Sensex jumped over 1,100 points to touch an intraday high of 81,765.77, while the Nifty 50 rallied to 25,022, reflecting broad-based buying interest. "Dalal Street is cheering a string of positive developments after the weekend. The government's proposal to overhaul the GST structure into a simpler two-slab system of 5% and 18% has been the key driver of today's rally, particularly in tax and export-sensitive segments such as autos, consumer staples and insurance. Investors are also encouraged by the revival in private capex, which signals that the long-awaited investment cycle is turning up," said Saurav Ghosh, Co-founder of Jiraaf. Analysts believe a GST overhaul will lift incomes across the economy by lowering costs and stimulating consumption. Combined with income tax reforms, this will empower Indian households to spend and save more, reinforcing domestic demand. "Taken together, tax reforms, stronger private investment and improved ratings are fueling optimism that India's growth story is firmly anchored in internal resilience despite global trade frictions and stalled talks with the US," said Ghosh. The rally was broad-based, with the Nifty Bank and Nifty Financial Services indices gaining 0.66% and 1.4%, respectively, following S&P's upgrade of long-term issuer credit ratings for major banks and financial institutions including SBI, ICICI Bank, HDFC Bank, Axis Bank, Kotak Mahindra Bank, and Bajaj Finance. The Nifty Auto index jumped over 4%, while the Nifty Consumer Durables index added 3.5%, reflecting optimism around GST-driven consumption. VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist at Geojit Investments, said, 'Sectors like autos and cement, currently in the 28% tax slabs, are expected to benefit. Companies such as TVS Motors, Hero, Eicher, M&M, and Maruti may respond positively. Insurance companies are also likely to gain from the GST revision.' Nikhil Gangil, Founder of Intrinsic Value, added that while today's surge is largely sentiment-driven, structural gains could emerge in autos, kitchen appliances, and electronics. Agrichemical and fertiliser stocks remain resilient due to government protections against US imports, positioning these sectors well for mid- to long-term performance, he added. Going ahead, Tarun Birani, Founder and CEO - TBNG Capital Advisors, advised investors that while momentum remains strong, near-term volatility is likely as further macro data and policy statements unfold. On the technical front, analysts believe a decisive close can push the Nifty 50 index higher. Vinit Bolinjkar of Ventura Securities said that the rally was triggered by pent-up bullish sentiment. 'Foreign Institutional Investors have been net sellers in August, leaving long positions at historic lows. The Nifty's formation of higher lows from the 24,350–24,400 support zone demonstrated resilience, setting the stage for upward movement. Profit booking by Domestic Institutional Investors may occur at higher levels, but the overall trajectory remains positive. A decisive close above 25,000 could drive new highs.' Ajit Mishra noted that the Nifty 50 has surpassed the immediate hurdle of the short-term 20 DEMA and is now hovering around 25,000. A decisive break above this level could trigger further short covering, pushing the index toward 25,250 in the near term, Mishra said.
