Bengaluru Ranks 4th in Global Prime Home Price Growth

According to Knight Frank's Prime Global Cities Index Q2 2025, Bengaluru ranks fourth globally in annual price appreciation of prime residential properties with a 10.2% increase, while Mumbai and Delhi stand sixth and fifteenth respectively. Seoul leads the global rankings with a 25.2% annual increase, followed by Tokyo at 16.3% and Dubai at 15.8%. Despite a global slowdown in prime residential price growth, which averaged 2.3% compared to 3.5% in the previous quarter, Indian cities have shown resilience driven by strong demand, limited supply, and continued wealth creation in urban centers. Knight Frank highlights that Bengaluru's tech-driven wealth, Mumbai's infrastructure appeal, and Delhi's steady luxury demand contribute to India's standout performance in the prime housing market. Quarterly data shows Mumbai's price growth at 3.6%, Bengaluru at 1.6%, and Delhi at 0.1%, while some global cities like Bangkok experienced declines. Experts anticipate that economic stability, urban redevelopment, and the attractiveness of prime assets as long-term wealth stores will sustain price growth in these Indian markets.
