Hyderabad’s residential real estate market has witnessed significant capital and rental appreciation between 2021-end and Q2 2025, according to ANAROCK Research data. Among the city’s micro markets, Gachibowli and HITECH City recorded remarkable growth, driven by IT sector expansion, infrastructure projects, and limited supply of ready-to-move-in apartments.
Gachibowli registered an 87 per cent increase in property values over the last three and a half years, while average monthly rent for a standard 2BHK apartment rose 66 per cent, reaching Rs 36,600. HITECH City also posted strong numbers, with property prices up 70 per cent and rents increasing 58 per cent to Rs 36,350. Analysts attribute this surge to the concentration of multinational campuses, premium residential projects, and proximity to key employment hubs.
The Hyderabad market mirrors a national trend where micro markets near metro lines, expressways, and tech corridors outperformed others. Infrastructure upgrades, combined with IT-driven employment demand, have fueled both capital appreciation and rental growth. Even as rental inflation moderated nationally to 7–9% by mid-2025, Hyderabad’s tech corridors continued to see double-digit annual gains.
Pune’s Wagholi and Hinjewadi, Bengaluru’s Sarjapur Road and Thanisandra, and Noida’s Sector-150 emerged as other high-performing micro markets. These regions benefited from connectivity improvements, planned township developments, and steady migration of professionals, highlighting a recurring theme: jobs and infrastructure drive real estate growth.
ANAROCK’s analysis of 14 key micro markets across India shows capital values rising 24–139 per cent and rentals increasing 32–81 per cent during 2021–2025. Sector-150 in Noida led the nation with a 139 per cent surge in property prices, while Sarjapur Road in Bengaluru and Gachibowli in Hyderabad reported significant rental gains.
Looking ahead, ANAROCK forecasts housing prices in key micro markets to grow 6–7 per cent on average in 2026, with rents rising 7–10 per cent, outperforming inflation. Micro markets linked to metro expansions, expressways, and IT park growth are expected to maintain above-average returns, making them attractive for both investors and end-users.
