Hyderabad Housing Market: Registrations Surge 32% in February 2026
Hyderabad's residential real estate market climbed to 6,179 house registrations in February 2026 — a 32% jump from January and 2% higher year-on-year. Premium homes above ₹1 crore made up 48% of total transaction value.
Hyderabad's residential real estate market has shown a robust upswing in early 2026, with February registrations climbing to 6,179 transactions — a sharp 32% jump from January's 4,686 units, and 2% higher than February 2025.
According to the latest Knight Frank India report, the February momentum is especially notable given the month's 28-day calendar, indicating genuine demand recovery rather than a calendar artifact.
Primary vs Secondary Market — Understanding the Split
- Primary Market — Direct purchase of newly constructed flats or homes from a builder/developer
- Secondary Market — Resale of previously owned properties between individual buyers and sellers
Hyderabad's Real Estate Footprint
The Knight Frank Hyderabad real estate market report covers a wider geography than just the GHMC area:
- Hyderabad district
- Rangareddy district
- Medchal-Malkajgiri district
- Parts of Sangareddy district
Premium Homes Drive Value Growth
Transactions worth ₹1 crore and above accounted for 18% of all registrations in February — a 6% increase over the previous year. The February market logged total transactions worth ₹4,139 crore, with properties above ₹1 crore making up 48% of total value.
This is a notable shift: while luxury buyers represent less than a fifth of all deals by count, they drive nearly half of the money flowing through the Hyderabad market.
Price Appreciation Across Districts (Year-on-Year)
- Medchal-Malkajgiri — +3%
- Rangareddy — +6%
- Sangareddy — +7%
The average square foot rate inside the Outer Ring Road (ORR) stood at ₹4,457, reflecting sustained demand within the core urban ring.
IT Corridor Leads Luxury Transactions
The top four individual flat registrations by value in February were all concentrated in Western Hyderabad's IT belt:
- Narsingi — ₹8.90 crore
- Gachibowli — ₹7.93 crore
- Raidurgam — ₹6.54 crore
- Shaikpet — ₹6.34 crore
These ticket sizes reinforce Western Hyderabad's position as the premium destination for tech professionals, senior management, and high-net-worth individuals.
Key Takeaways for Buyers & Investors
- Demand is rebounding strongly after a slower January
- Premium housing is outpacing the mid-segment in both volume and value growth
- Western Hyderabad (Gachibowli, Narsingi, Shaikpet, Raidurgam) dominates high-ticket purchases
- Land prices are rising steadily across all four tracked districts
- The ORR average of ₹4,457/sqft continues to set the benchmark for metro-core pricing
