The Genesis Index, in brief

The Genesis Index is The Genesis's proprietary micro-market scoring framework. It scores every MMR micro-market from 0 to 100 on eight weighted variables — connectivity, demand depth, supply pressure, pricing, absorption, infrastructure, liquidity and development potential — applied identically everywhere so comparisons are meaningful.

Methodology

Eight variables, and why each one matters.

Variable	Weight	What it measures	Why it moves a decision
Connectivity	15%	Real journey times by road, rail, metro and airport to the employment cores relevant to the buyer	Determines the catchment a project can actually draw from.
Demand depth	15%	Size and financial capacity of the addressable buyer pool for the product	Sets how much inventory the market can absorb at a price.
Supply pressure	10%	Launched, registered and pipeline inventory competing over a typical sell-out period (scored inversely)	Governs pricing power over the life of the project.
Pricing	12%	Registered realisation per carpet square foot and its direction	The evidence base for a price ladder.
Absorption	18%	Observed velocity of comparable configurations	The leading indicator — it turns before price does. Weighted highest.
Infrastructure	10%	Committed projects, credited by delivery stage	Separates real future value from announced value.
Liquidity	12%	Resale depth and realistic time to exit	Decides whether an owner or investor can actually get out.
Development potential	8%	Entitlement headroom and redevelopment pipeline	Signals both upside and future competition.

Principles of the framework

Evidence over asking prices. Pricing uses registered transaction values, never listing prices.
Velocity leads. Absorption carries the highest weight because it turns before price.
Infrastructure by stage. Announced projects score nothing; operational projects score fully.
Consistency beats precision. The same method everywhere matters more than a perfect score anywhere.
A score is not a recommendation. Fit to product, price and balance sheet decides the answer.

Questions

About the index.

What is the Genesis Index?

Why is absorption weighted highest?

Because it is the leading indicator. Prices in Indian residential are sticky and lag demand by months; absorption velocity changes first. A micro-market with flat prices and halving velocity is deteriorating faster than its price data shows.

Is a high Genesis Index score a recommendation to buy or build?

No. A score makes reasoning visible and comparable; it is not a recommendation. A high-scoring micro-market can still be wrong for a specific product at a specific price and for a specific balance sheet.

How often is the Genesis Index updated?

Quarterly, with interim revisions when something material changes — an infrastructure milestone, a significant supply addition, or a visible shift in absorption. Scores currently published on the site are illustrative pending release of the scored quarterly model.
