Notwithstanding its spiralling prices, the ultra-luxury residential segment in India continues to thrive, with 2024 setting new records for sales and total value. According to ANAROCK data, 59 ultra-luxury homes (priced above INR 40 Cr each) were sold across the top seven cities for a collective sales value of approximately INR 4,754 Cr. This marks a 17% increase in sales value compared to 2023, which saw 58 homes sold for INR 4,063 Cr.
Mumbai retained its dominance, accounting for 52 of the 59 ultra-luxury deals in 2024, representing an 88% share. Among these, at least 16 transactions were valued above INR 100 Cr, primarily concentrated in prime areas such as Worli, Malabar Hill, and Pali Hill.
Anuj Puri, Chairman of ANAROCK Group, highlighted the sustained demand for such properties despite rising prices. “HNIs and ultra-HNIs continue to invest in trophy residences for personal use and as long-term investments. The 17% annual increase in sales value underscores this demand.”

2023

The “Dr” debate masks a larger crisis in allied-health education

By Dr P K Gupta*  India’s allied-health professions have long operated in a fragmented landscape of universities, hospitals, State authorities and private institutions, each with its own nomenclature, curriculum and standards. The National Commission for Allied and Healthcare Professions Act, 2021 was meant to correct this by creating a unified national framework for education, professional regulation and institutional recognition. Few dispute the need for such oversight. The real question is whether standardisation is quietly becoming synonymous with longer courses, additional internships and new professional titles—changes that risk masking deeper gaps in clinical training, institutional capacity and affordability.

Pilgrimage or pollution? The waste crisis of Indian faith

By Raj Kumar Sinha*  In today's times, there are certain issues that are constantly talked about and discussed, yet no visible impact seems to be made. Beyond water, soil, and pollution, one crisis that continues to be overlooked is waste. Like other life-threatening problems, waste too is gradually moving toward burying and obliterating us. After the Kanwar Yatra in Haridwar, approximately 8,000 tonnes of waste were left behind on the riverbanks, including bottles filled with urine. 

Arrival of USS Lincoln: A ‘leisure trip’ to Thailand or a neo-colonial move to commodify women?

By Benyasiri Eimviriyapong   The arrival of the USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72) for a ‘leisure trip’ in Thailand before returning to its campaign of destruction against the people of West Asia demands immediate interrogation and opposition. For us Thai people, and those in sites of American plunder across the globe, this a rattling of the US’ cold war colonial chains on its most loyal lap dog, while conducting a war of aggression in Iran and the ongoing genocide in Palestine. In allowing the USS Lincoln to dock, the Thai ruling elites are once again facilitating a system of imperial violence that extends far beyond Southeast Asian borders, a system which in our case, is predicated on sexual violence and femicide.
