Unexpected Real Estate Star: How Hyderabad Delivered 80% Property Returns Since 2020

Introduction

When one thinks of real estate hotspots in India, Delhi, Mumbai, and Bengaluru usually come to mind. But according to a recent post by investment banker Sarthak Ahuja, Hyderabad has beaten all of them—rising a stunning 80% in residential property prices since 2020

Hyderabad’s Stellar Growth

• 80% surge in average home prices over four years, outpacing Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Noida, and Gurugram .

• By comparison, Noida grew by ~70%, Gurugram ~60%, while Delhi and Bengaluru posted ~45% and Mumbai ~40%, respectively .

Ahuja emphasized that this isn't about isolated outliers––it's a city-wide average, making Hyderabad’s growth truly remarkable.

What’s Fueling the Boom?

1. Smart demand plays: Ahuja cites well-judged bets by buyers and developers aligning with tenant and migration trends .

2. Infrastructure push: Major expansions in metro lines, roads, and urban planning have boosted connectivity and livability.

3. Investor confidence: An upbeat sentiment among property buyers and investors is accelerating market momentum.

Why the Difference?

• Competing metros have seen more modest growth (Delhi, Bengaluru ~45%; Mumbai ~40%).

• Hyderabad's growth exceeds the national metro average of ~50%, cementing its position as the fastest-growing market .

What This Means for You

• Homebuyers: If you're looking to plant roots, Hyderabad is still relatively affordable compared with other metros—but prices are surging fast.

• Investors: A sustained price rise suggests healthy appreciation, but rising values may limit future upside.

• Caution is key: Check your local market—some areas may already be overpriced. Do your due diligence, especially on the developer's reputation and project timelines.

Future Outlook

Sustainability of growth?

• Hyderabad was already growing before 2020, bolstered by its status as an IT/innovation hub and improved infrastructure.

• Major developments like the HITECH Financial District, expanded transit systems, and global company offices further strengthen the case.

Still more runway?

• While the 80% jump is significant, the city's affordability relative to other metros suggests there's still room for growth—especially in satellite towns like Kondapur, Gachibowli, and Kukatpally.

Final Take

Hyderabad has quietly emerged as India's real estate dark horse. From technology-driven migration to strategic infrastructure development, the city has hit a sweet spot—delivering strong returns at scale. For investors and homebuyers, it’s a market worth watching and researching more closely.

Bottom Line:
