Housing price index of 13 major cities rises 8 points annually in March: Housing.com-ISB report
The housing price index of 13 major cities rose by eight points year-on-year to 132 during March this year on strong demand for residential properties, according to a report by REA India and Indian School of Business. The Housing Price Index (HPI), a joint initiative between REA India's real estate classified platform and the Indian School of Business (ISB), tracks price trends across 13 cities.

"At the same time, with improving affordability due to recent rate cuts and strong underlying demand drivers such as income growth and lifestyle aspirations, we remain optimistic about the long-term resilience of the housing sector," Sharma said. Shekhar Tomar, Assistant Professor of Economics and Public Policy at ISB, noted that price stability points to a more mature and balanced housing market. The report noted that the price stabilisation in early 2025 reflects an interplay of global headwinds, cautious buyer sentiment, and reduced launches. PTI

India reports 65% jump in Grade A green-certified office buildings
India has reported a 65% jump in overall Grade A green- certified office stock across the top 7 cities since 2019 as developers are increasingly constructing LEED, IGBC or GRIHA certified stock to stay in sync with the demand. According to Anarock data, about 530 million sq ft of Grade A office stock in the top 7 cities out of the total Grade A office stock of 865 million sq ft is green certified as of H1 2025 across cities.

'The push towards sustainability comes partly from the Government's own initiatives and commitments, and partly from the demand for such solutions. There is increasing awareness about the need for sustainability across all real estate segments,' said Anuj Puri, Chairman - Anarock Group . Live Events As per Anarock data, the top 7 cities saw approx. 26.8 million of office space leased in H1 2025, of which over 74% was in green- certified office buildings. City-wise, Bengaluru led decisively - of the net 6.6 million sq ft Grade A office stock leased in the city in the first half this year, certified green buildings accounted for a massive 80%. 'However, the demand for sustainable office buildings outstrips that for green housing. A vast number of occupiers, especially MNCs and GCCs, now insist on sustainability features only available in green-certified Grade A office buildings." In contrast, there has still not been such an imperative-driven shift in the Indian housing segment, and this is visible in the relative scarcity of green residential stock in the country,' Puri said. Despite their commanding premium rentals vis-à-vis regular Grade A office stock, green-certified office spaces have seen leasing increase significantly over the last six years. 'Sustainability is no longer just about meeting regulations. In commercial real estate, it is quickly becoming a genuine advantage. A 24% rental premium and lower vacancy rates show that companies are willing to invest more in spaces that reflect their ESG values and support their people. What is also clear now is that corporates see the carbon performance of office interiors as just as important as green building certifications. Sustainability in fit-outs is becoming a strategic priority for both global and Indian occupiers,' said Vibhor Jain, Founder & CEO, Carbon Guardians , a firm specializing in Design & Build and managed offices. The average monthly rentals of green-certified office spaces in the top 7 cities are up to 24% higher than in regular, non-certified Grade A office stock. 'The surging popularity of green office buildings across India is not merely a passing trend, but a strategic imperative in line with the nation's bold climate ambitions. India has committed to achieving net-zero emissions by 2070, and to expand its non-fossil energy capacity to 500GW by 2030. Green office buildings are a major link in this equation. As India grapples with escalating urban pollution and environmental pressures, both developers and businesses must take responsibility for championing sustainable choices in the built environment,' Puri said.
