What can a Rs 9 crore buy you in Mumbai real estate market If you have $10 million, you can only buy a house of 1,065 square feet in Mumbai. This means that to purchase a standard 2 BHK home in Mumbai, you would need around Rs 9 crores. In contrast, in the national capital, Delhi, you can buy a house with double the size for the same amount. In Delhi, Rs 9 crores can get you a house of 2,238 square feet. This information was revealed by Knight Frank.
Due to rising home prices in Mumbai, the size of houses that can be purchased for Rs 9 crores has decreased by 3% compared to last year. In 2024, with $10 million, you could purchase a house of 1,097 square feet, but now that has dropped to just 1,065 square feet. In comparison to Mumbai, Delhi offers homes of 2,238 square feet and Bengaluru offers homes of 3,982 square feet for the same price.
