Kolkata Home Registrations Rise 12% YoY in October 2025

The Kolkata Metropolitan Area recorded 4,470 residential property registrations in October 2025, marking a 12 per cent year-on-year increase, according to Knight Frank India. Month-on-month, registrations fell by 16 per cent, largely due to festive-period demand being captured in the preceding month. Between January and October 2025, the region registered 51,212 apartments, reflecting a strong 30 per cent rise over the same period last year and indicating sustained homebuyer appetite across both primary and secondary markets.

Homes sized between 501–1,000 sq ft dominated October transactions with a 55 per cent share, up from 47 per cent in October 2024. Units below 500 sq ft accounted for 30 per cent, significantly lower than the previous year’s 49 per cent, highlighting the city’s shift towards larger homes. Properties above 1,000 sq ft stood at 15 per cent.

South Kolkata continued to lead micro-market performance with a 38 per cent share, supported by demand in locations such as Behala, Jadavpur, Kasba and Sonarpur. The North Zone followed with 36 per cent, reflecting steady traction in areas like Dum Dum and Baranagar. Together, the top 10 locations contributed nearly half of all registrations in October 2025.
Knight Frank noted that strong infrastructure, better connectivity and rising preference for larger units are underpinning Kolkata’s resilient residential market."
