Noida and Gurugram Lead Housing Rally as Prices More Than Double Since 2019

ANAROCK says infrastructure upgrades, expanding employment hubs and stronger rents are reshaping investor returns

Overview

  • ANAROCK's Q2 2026 data, published Aug 4, 2026, shows Noida posted a 125% rise in average residential prices from Rs 4,795/sq ft in 2019 to Rs 10,780/sq ft.
  • Gurugram was the second-best performer with prices up 117% to Rs 13,350/sq ft over the same period and rental yields rising to about 4.3%.
  • Bengaluru and Hyderabad delivered the sharpest rental gains, each adding roughly 100 basis points to reach about 4.6% and 3.6% respectively, which narrows the gap between rent and capital growth.
  • All 11 major markets ANAROCK tracked recorded price appreciation between 2019 and Q2 2026 with Noida's per‑sq‑ft rate now exceeding those in Bengaluru, Pune and Chennai and Mumbai remaining the priciest market overall.
  • ANAROCK links the twin rise in prices and rents to better connectivity, infrastructure projects, expansion of Global Capability Centres and migration, a shift that can create new residential hotspots and boost returns for buyers who rent out properties.
