Mangal Lodha at No.2

Mangal Prabhat Lodha is the second richest Indian in real estate with a wealth of ₹92,340 crore in 2025, behind DLF’s Rajiv Singh (₹1.27 trillion) and ahead of Gautam Adani (₹52,320 crore).

Real Estate Sector Slows

The overall value growth in India’s real estate sector fell from 70% in 2024 to just 14% in 2025. Despite global conflicts and high input costs early in the year, the sector's value increased by ₹1.4 trillion due to a strong recovery after April.

Economy Drives Rebound

Repo rate cuts, lower cement prices, and easing import tariffs boosted the real estate sector’s mid-year recovery. These favourable economic trends helped balance out the early-year slowdown caused by global and cost pressures.

Top 10 Firms Dominate

The top 10 companies in the 2025 GROHE-HURUN India Real Estate 150 are now worth over ₹8.5 trillion, led by DLF (₹2.1 trillion), Lodha (₹1.4 trillion), and Indian Hotels (₹1.1 trillion). Aparna Constructions and M3M India made their debut in the top 10, signalling the rise of regional champions.
