Track2Realty: In the annual report by global real estate consultants Cushman & Wakefield, “Main Streets across the world”, Mumbai witnessed the highest rental growth globally. Colaba Causeway in Mumbai recorded a rental increase of 75% over last year, on the back of strong retailer demand and continuous preference for prime high street properties in the city. Kolkata – Park Street (5th) at 53.8% and Chennai – Khader Niwaz Khan Road (10th) at 36.7% were among the global top ten cities to register highest annual rental growth.

Track2Realty Exclusive: Property market in India is no more metro centric as major national players have already made an entry into tier II and III cities across India. An extended period of high interest rate have dissuaded buyers in metros to move towards more affordable housing in tier II and III cities, as these cities have the potential to fetch higher rentals as well.
