Resurgence of COVID affected residential launches in Q1 Mumbai’s residential sector witnessed launch of 10,742 units during the first quarter of 2021 with a marginal q-o-q drop of 6.5%. Developers launched fewer units in the current quarter on the back of resurgence of COVID and rising infection levels in the . On a y-o-y basis, launches were down by 39.1%, which Q-O-Q DROP IN NEW LAUNCHES indicates that sustained recovery is still a few quarters away though residential sales have been improving gradually. submarket witnessed 6.5% (Q1 2021) the maximum launches during the quarter with a share of 29% followed by Extended Eastern Suburbs and with 26% and 21% shares, respectively. On a quarterly basis, while all these submarkets witnessed growth in new launches, few other submarkets like , and Extended Western Suburbs saw perceptible drop in quarterly launches. Prominent developers like Godrej Properties, Runwal Group, and 57% SHARE OF MID SEGMENT IN Raymond Realty were the most active during the quarter and contributed nearly 47% of the total new launched units. Developers across all submarkets have UNIT LAUNCHES (Q1 2021) been focusing on the completion of ongoing projects but rising Covid cases and localized restrictions might impact construction timelines and further delay the handover of new homes by at least 3-6 months. SHARE OF EASTERN SUBURBS During the quarter, sales activity remained healthy as developers continued to offer various payment incentives to attract homebuyers along with the 29% IN UNIT LAUNCHES (Q1 2021) reduction in stamp duty that drove the housing demand. However, towards the end of the quarter, sales activity slowed down marginally, primarily due to the COVID resurgence across major suburban locations, which imposed a restriction on physical site visits by homebuyers.

Mid segment continued to lead new launches The mid and affordable segments together accounted for nearly 84% of new launches in Q1 2021, with the mid segment contributing 57% and the affordable segment making up for the remaining 27%. The high-end segment witnessed the maximum q-o-q growth in percentage terms in Q1, mainly due to new MARKET INDICATORS OVERALL Q1 2021 projects launched by prominent developers in Eastern Suburbs and Western Suburbs. However, the affordable segment witnessed the maximum q-o-q drop in new launches due to the decline in project launches in the peripheral submarkets where rising unsold inventory remains a major challenge for developers. Y-O-Y 12-Months Extended Eastern Suburbs dominated the launch of affordable housing projects whereas, Eastern Suburbs, Thane and Western Suburbs led the way for mid Change Forecast segment launches. Going forward, we expect Western, Eastern suburbs and Thane to remain key markets for mid-segment projects, whereas Extended suburbs and Navi Mumbai will continue to dominate the affordable segment. New Launches The ready to move-in or nearing possession homes in the price bracket of INR 1.0-2.0 crore in Western Suburbs, Eastern Suburbs, Thane and Navi Mumbai submarkets continued to witness the maximum sales traction during the quarter. Sales of affordable housing projects in the Extended suburbs remained healthy as well. We expect a near term temporary slowdown in sales activity due to the evolving COVID crisis though residential sales is likely to pick up Units Sold momentum during the second half of the year.

Capital values across submarkets remained stable in Q1 Average Capital The average quoted capital values across all submarkets continued to remain range-bound during the first quarter as compared to the previous quarter. Values (INR/sf) However, developers across segments and submarkets are selectively offering 5-10% discounts on quoted rates to serious home buyers along with other price incentives like zero stamp duty, discounts, zero floor rise, no PLC charges, and free gifts. While capital values for mid and affordable segments are expected to remain range-bound in the near future, we expect prices for high-end and luxury homes to witness a marginal drop during the upcoming quarters. Rental values also remained unchanged across all locations during the quarter.
