Tokyo is at second position with 16.3 per cent appreciation and Dubai ranks third, clocking 15.8 per cent annual appreciation. The Prime Global Cities Index is a valuation-based index tracking the movement of prime residential prices across 46 cities worldwide.
Scenario in India
In India, Bengaluru witnessed a 10.2 per cent increase in prices of prime housing properties, Mumbai (8.7 per cent), and Delhi (3.9 per cent). The consultant mentioned that the average global prime residential prices rose by 2.3 per cent in the 12 months to June 2025.
“Despite a global cooling in prime residential price growth – averaging 2.3 per cent annually compared to 3.5 per cent in Q1 2025-Indian cities remain resilient, reflecting strong demand, limited prime supply, and sustained wealth creation in urban centres,” the consultant said.
