Bengaluru Residential Market: Key Trends from Q1 2025
The beginning of 2025 marked important milestones in Bengaluru’s housing sector. According to data from Q1 2025:
- Bengaluru accounted for 21% of total new residential supply across India’s top seven metropolitan regions, affirming its position as the second-largest contributor.
- Despite this strong presence, the city experienced a 7% decline in new launches quarter-on-quarter. However, it achieved a 26% year-on-year increase compared to Q1 2024.
- Around 15,000 housing units were sold during the quarter, showing a 7% fall from Q4 2024 and a 16% annual decline.
- Inventory levels rose to 58,700 units, an 11% quarterly and 28% annual increase – the highest among major Indian cities.
- Bengaluru’s inventory overhang reached 11 months, suggesting a market where supply temporarily exceeds demand, a favourable situation for prospective buyers.
These figures point to a market in transition, where cautious demand coincides with ample inventory across strategic micro-markets. For serious home seekers, this environment presents a rare opportunity for flexible pricing and broader choices.
High-End and Luxury Housing Takes Centre Stage
The first quarter of 2025 saw a distinct turn towards aspirational living. Buyers showed a clear preference for spacious homes, premium amenities, and well-located developments near lifestyle and tech hubs.
New Launches by Segment:
- High-End Housing: 43% of total launches
- Luxury Housing: 43%
- Mid-Segment & Affordable: 14%
The city’s affluent demographic including IT professionals, entrepreneurs, and globally mobile citizens is powering this transformation. Brigade Group is meeting this demand with upscale homes that balance architectural excellence, environmental sustainability, and smart home features.
A standout example is our Yelahanka development, featuring Brigade Insignia and Brigade Eternia together offering 1,124 high-end residences priced at ₹12,000/sf. Both projects are ideally positioned with seamless access to North Bengaluru’s commercial hubs, upcoming metro lines, and the international airport corridor.

Bengaluru’s Rental and Capital Trends
In Q1 2025, rental values and capital appreciation in Bengaluru’s leading micro-markets indicated stable performance and investor confidence.
| Micro-Market | Avg. Rent (2BHK) | Capital Rate (₹/sf) | Rental Change (QoQ) | Capital Price Change (QoQ) |
| Whitefield | ₹29K – ₹43K | ₹9,700 | +2% | +4% |
| Sarjapur Road | ₹30.5K – ₹45K | ₹10,500 | +2% | +3% |

These micro-markets present viable options for both rental yield seekers and capital growth investors. Brigade Group’s curated projects in these localities deliver consistent returns and a superior lifestyle quotient.
Inventory Trends: An Opportunity in Disguise
With a substantial increase in inventory now totaling 58,700 units, Bengaluru’s current supply landscape favours buyers. While high inventory can appear cautionary, it offers:
- Wider project selection
- Flexible pricing
- Scope for developer incentives
The geographical distribution of inventory is revealing:
- East Bengaluru: 51% of total unsold stock
- North Bengaluru: 32%
- Remaining Zones: 17%
At Brigade Group, we see this as a buyer’s market. We are strategically leveraging this scenario to offer value-packed deals and customised payment plans, especially in emerging corridors such as Yelahanka, Sarjapur, and Kanakapura Road.
Price Segmentation: Where the Market Is Moving
Q1 2025 inventory segmentation by price reveals that most buyers are focused on the mid to premium range:
| Price Band | Share of Inventory |
| Less than ₹40 Lakh | 4% |
| ₹40 Lakh – ₹80 Lakh | 10% |
| ₹80 Lakh – ₹1.5 Crore | 43% |
| ₹1.5 Crore – ₹2.5 Crore | 20% |
| Above ₹2.5 Crore | 23% |
With over 60% of unsold stock above ₹80 lakh, there is a visible migration toward lifestyle homes. These homes combine premium locations, sustainable materials, and wellness-driven amenities, all of which are pillars of Brigade Group’s residential philosophy.
Infrastructure Development: Fueling Future Growth
Infrastructure continues to be one of the strongest growth enablers in Bengaluru’s housing market. Despite a few ongoing challenges in peripheral zones, multiple civic upgrades are unlocking new growth corridors.
Key Developments:
- Metro Extensions: New lines connecting Whitefield, Hebbal, and Kanakapura have made commuting faster and easier
- Peripheral Ring Road (PRR) and Satellite Town Ring Road (STRR) projects are decongesting arterial roads
- Improved Airport Access: North Bengaluru is rapidly gaining traction due to seamless airport connectivity
These upgrades are boosting demand for residential projects near employment hubs and transit corridors. Brigade Group’s site selection model considers these factors to ensure future-ready value for buyers.
