Lucknow Drives Tier-2 Realty Boom with 48% Sales Growth
India's Tier-2 cities are emerging as powerful growth hubs in real estate, driven by infrastructure upgrades, affordability, and evolving lifestyle demands. Defying a broader slowdown, Lucknow recorded a remarkable 48% jump in property sales value and a 25% increase in residential units sold, according to a PropEquity report. The city's transformation is underpinned by modern infrastructure, private sector responsiveness, and an expanding middle class seeking better urban living.
Alongside Lucknow, Western cities like Ahmedabad, Surat, and Gandhinagar contributed to 79% of units sold and 74% of sales value. Other capitals—Jaipur, Bhubaneswar, Goa, and Bhopal—also showed healthy growth, jointly accounting for 30% of total revenue.
Lucknow's real estate momentum is fueled by major infrastructure projects such as the Purvanchal Expressway, Outer Ring Road, and the expanding metro network. These efforts, combined with initiatives like AMRUT and Smart City Mission, are reshaping the city's urban fabric and improving its liveability.
The city's realty value climbed to ₹1,797 crore with 1,301 units sold, the highest in Tier-2 cities. Developers are seizing this moment, investing in planned urban corridors and premium micro-markets like Gomti Nagar Extension, Shaheed Path, and Raebareli Road.
These zones are seeing rapid price appreciation:
Gomti Nagar Extension: 1.7× rise in 10 years, projected 1.9× by 2035
Shaheed Path: 2.4× rise in 10 years, projected 3.0× by 2035
Raebareli Road: 3.5× rise in 10 years, projected 3.4× by 2035
Real estate leaders including Mohit Goel (Omaxe Group), Yash Miglani (Migsun Group), and Neeraj Sharma (Escon Infra Realtors) agree that Lucknow is not just growing—it's setting the benchmark for Tier-2 urban development. Infrastructure, lifestyle appeal, and smart planning are transforming it into a long-term investment hotspot.
As demand rises for quality housing and infrastructure keeps pace, Lucknow is redefining Tier-2 city potential, offering both end users and investors a future-ready, high-return market.

Zelensky urges Western allies to allot 0.25% GDP for Ukraine's defense industry
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called on Ukraine's Western partners to allocate 0.25% of their GDP towards helping Kyiv ramp up weapons production, reported Reuters. Ukraine is in immediate need of improved weaponry and better ammunition.(REUTERS) "Ukraine is part of Europe's security and we want 0.25% of the GDP of a particular partner country to be allocated for our defence industry and domestic production," Zelensky said. "We have launched a program 'Build with Ukraine' and in summer we will sign relevant agreements to start exporting our technologies abroad in the format of opening production lines in European countries," Zelensky said. This year Kyiv had secured $43 billion to finance its domestic weapon production, he added. As Russia is bigger and more equipped than Ukraine, and the strife between the two has been escalating in the past few weeks, Zelensky's country is in immediate need of improved weaponry and better ammunition. Kyiv plans to launch joint weapon production outside of the country and will start exporting some of its military production technologies, the President affirmed. In the remarks released for publication by his office on Saturday, Zelenskiy said Ukraine was in talks with Denmark, Norway, Germany, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Lithuania to launch joint weapon production. According to the report, Ukraine's 40% defence needs are presently covered with domestic production, and the government is on the lookout for ways to boost this production in the future. Zelensky attended the G7 summit in Canada last week. He especially wanted to meet US President Donald Trump to discuss the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, help impose stronger sanctions against Russia and urge increased military support for his country. This effort went in vain as Trump left the summit a day early to address the Israel-Iran conflict in Washington. The Ukrainian President is likely to attend the upcoming NATO summit, where he will be meeting several Western leaders. He would also make a second attempt to meet Donald Trump after the G7.
