Newsroom, December 23, 2025: Developers flood Hyderabad with towering luxury projects featuring large apartments in 60-plus floor buildings, mainly in western corridors. Property values jumped 85% in five years. Land costs doubled in key areas. This shift cuts the supply of smaller, budget-friendly units.

Middle-income families move to distant suburbs for options under ₹1 crore or risk unregulated builders. Policies meant to boost supply instead fuel high-end growth, straining infrastructure. Experts call for zoning rules and better transport to balance the market and keep home ownership realistic for more residents.
