In May last year, 9,839 units were registered in Mumbai city area (under BMC jurisdiction), it added. Last month, 10,514 units were registered. So, the registration of properties is likely to decline month-on-month basis.

"The Mumbai residential market maintains its growth momentum with more than 300 properties being registered daily indicating that the demand, especially for residential, continues despite the change in stamp duty, rise in interest rates and other impediments", Shishir Baijal, Chairman & Managing Director of Knight Frank India, said.
He expected the demand to remain robust.
"...factors influencing buying decisions, especially home loan rates, are expected to remain steady as consumer inflation is fast coming down", Baijal said.
