Mumbai Sees 13,800+ Property Registrations in April, Highest in 14 Years

New Delhi, May 1, 2026: Mumbai’s housing market continued to show strong momentum, with 13,864 property registrations recorded in April 2026, marking the highest April performance in over 14 years, according to Knight Frank India.

Strong Year-on-Year Growth

Property registrations increased by 6% YoY, highlighting sustained demand in the city’s residential segment under the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) jurisdiction.

Stamp Duty Collections Cross ₹1,100 Crore

Stamp duty collections for April stood at ₹1,100+ crore, showing a marginal 1% YoY growth.
The slower growth in collections compared to registrations suggests a shift towards mid-segment housing transactions.

Sequential Dip Due to Seasonality

On a month-on-month basis:

• Registrations declined 13% from March 2026 (15,983 units)
• The drop is attributed to typical post financial year-end seasonality

Demand Remains Consistent

Experts noted that despite fluctuations in ticket sizes, end-user demand remains strong, with monthly registrations consistently staying above 11,000 units over the past year.

Market Trend

The data indicates:

• Stable housing demand
• Increased activity in mid-income segments
• Healthy long-term sustainability for Mumbai’s residential market
