Housing inventory overhang lowest in 5 years due to robust sales

The housing inventory overhang in India's top seven cities was 20 months at the end of the January-March quarter, according to data from real estate consultancy Anarock released on Monday. In the quarter ending December 2020, it was the longest at 55 months.

The inventory overhang is the time it would take to sell the area's current housing listings. A lower overhang indicates higher demand in a specific area.

According to the data, Bengaluru had the shortest inventory overhang of 13 months. "In Q1CY23, the top seven cities recorded all-time high sales of more than 114,000 units," says Anarock Group Chairman Anuj Puri. "The quarter broke all records and breached the 100,000 units mark for the first time. Strong homeownership sentiment, relatively lower home loan rates, strong momentum in luxury housing and the anticipation of further price hikes were major factors in boosting housing sales, bringing down the overall residential inventory overhang across the top cities."
