Besides the highly aspirational SoBo label, many luxury projects in these expensive markets offer unrestricted views of the racecourse and eastern sea views, premium amenities - and privacy, which is arguably the biggest luxury in India's most congested city.

In addition to mainstay luxury amenities, luxury developers now market their projects as a new standard of sustainable and even with organic living.

A significant percentage of premium projects in these markets come with an organic vegetable garden, organic café, herb garden, and so on.

The top 10 rankings are based on the average prices of all-new luxury units launched between 2013 and H1 2019. Over this period, avg. prices in the mentioned micro-markets were calculated to be the highest in the respective cities.
