Commenting on the occasion, Shishir Baijal, Chairman & Managing Director, Knight Frank India, said, “While Delhi and Mumbai have moved up in their rankings, luxury home prices have remained stable in both the cities in the past three months. Delhi’s prime residential market, which is characterised by its tight supply, had witnessed a growth of 4.4% in March 2019 quarter, leading to this performance in the Prime Global City Index."

"Slowing of global economic growth, along with issues like US-China trade relations, Hong Kong’s political tensions, a US presidential election in 2020 and the Brexit conundrum have influenced luxury buyers’ sentiment. Back in India as well, all the policy initiatives have been focused on boosting the development of affordable and mid-income housing, which has left the luxury property development a game for well-funded and organised firms to play,” Baijal added.
