Mumbai: MMR Land Deals 2025 underline a strong resurgence in developer confidence, with the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) emerging as India’s most active land market during the year.

According to ANAROCK Research, MMR closed 32 land deals covering over 500 acres in 2025, accounting for more than 13% of the total land transacted nationwide.

While the number of transactions was marginally lower than in 2024, the overall land area transacted across India in 2025 significantly surpassed the previous year.

In comparison, 2024 saw at least 30 land deals in MMR spanning over 607 acres, while India overall recorded 133 deals for 2,514+ acres. In 2025, the country closed at least 126 land deals covering over 3,772 acres, reflecting a notable increase in land volume despite a slight dip in deal count.

Developers’ renewed appetite for land was driven by stronger balance sheets, disciplined underwriting, and improved visibility on housing demand, commercial absorption, and infrastructure-led growth, according to the report.
