Market Intelligence for Alternate Investments

Hyderabad is entering 2026 as one of India’s most structurally balanced real estate markets, offering investors a strategic forecast of income, rental growth, and capital appreciation opportunities. Residential prices are rising in the low-teens, premium homes dominate transactions, and rents in IT corridors are growing close to 20% year-on-year. On the commercial side, office leasing volumes reached multi-year highs led by Global Capability Centres (GCCs), while vacancy has tightened and rents are moving up.

Emerging infrastructure corridors like the Outer Ring Road (ORR), Regional Ring Road (RRR), and Metro Phase II are widening the investable geography, creating a second layer of growth beyond the traditional western IT hubs. For HNI and UHNI investors, this mix of price momentum, rental income, and institutional-grade office demand makes Hyderabad one of the few Indian cities where long-term, income-backed strategies remain highly compelling going into 2026.

India’s real estate market is transitioning from cyclical recovery to structural allocation. For UHNI capital, the commercial versus residential distinction is now framed around risk concentration, capital control, and functional role within the portfolio, rather than asset preference.
For large private portfolios, this distinction increasingly determines not just returns, but the stability of capital across cycles.

Residential real estate anchors approximately 65 - 70 percent of market value and delivers 12 - 16 percent total returns in 2024 - 2025 across select micro-markets, supported by end-user demand and price resilience. Commercial assets continue to offer 7 - 9 percent income yields, but with higher sensitivity to tenant concentration and leasing cycles. Into 2026, capital is increasingly prioritising flexibility, demand depth, and exit optionality, attributes that tend to support more durable outcomes across cycles.

Goa has evolved from a lifestyle-led second-home destination into one of India’s most structurally resilient luxury residential markets. This blog examines why North Goa has become the state’s residential core, why Anjuna remains a mature and supply-constrained micro-market, and how Saga, an Alt. Investments project developed as a signature project by Aditi Constructions aligns with long-term residential demand trends in Goa.
