According to Anarock data, average residential prices in Noida have seen a significant 92% jump between the end of 2019 and the end of Q1 2025 — from ₹4,795 per sq ft in 2019 to nearly ₹9,200 per sq ft in Q1 2025. Average prices in Greater Noida have risen by a whopping 97% during the same period — from ₹3,340 per sq ft in 2019 to ₹6,600 per sq ft as of Q1 2025. «While the proposed hike aims to align circle rates with prevailing market prices, it should also consider that the market has entered a consolidation phase and prices are starting to stabilise,» said Amit Modi, director, County Group.
