Ready-to-move-in homes in 2023: The year 2022 witnessed a record high in housing sales and new launches across the top seven cities of the country. As per Anarock data, around 4.02 lakh homes were completed in 2022 in these cities, which was 44% higher than in 2021, when approximately 2.79 lakh homes were completed.

The highest number of new homes completed in 2022 was in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR). The total number of completed units in MMR in the previous year was 1,26,720, which was almost 80% more than in 2021. MMR was followed by Delhi-NCR, Pune, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Chennai and Kolkata.

In 2023, Delhi-NCR is expected to have the highest number of new homes.

“2022 was a watershed year for the Indian housing sector, with sales breaching the previous peak levels of 2014. In response to this high demand, developers remained focused on completing their previously launched projects. 2022 saw the highest rate of completions (4.02 lakh units) between 2017 and 2022 across the top 7 cities,” says Anuj Puri, Chairman, Anarock.

“Over 5.44 lakh units are scheduled to be completed across the top 7 cities in 2023. Construction activity was, and will hopefully remain, least impacted even if the pandemic resurfaces, so most completions in 2023 may be as per schedule. Certainly, developers are committed to completing previously launched projects before launching new ones,” he added.
