Over the past few years, Sector 150 has seen consistent capital appreciation, with current property values in the range of INR 14,000 to INR 17,000 per sq. ft., firmly establishing it within Noida’s premium bracket. This growth has been driven by a combination of selective inventories, high-end developments, and increasing end-user demand, signalling a clear shift from an emerging destination to a mature, investment-grade micro-market.

Strategic location

Strategic Location Anchors Future Growth
Sector 150 enjoys a distinct location advantage as the closest residential sector to the Yamuna Expressway, with direct access to the Noida-Greater Noida Expressway and seamless connectivity to Delhi. Its proximity to the new Noida International Airport further enhances its appeal, positioning it at the centre of a rapidly developing infrastructure corridor.

As connectivity strengthens and commercial activity along the expressway scales up, Sector 150 is expected to witness sustained demand, improved rental prospects, and long-term capital appreciation, making it attractive for both end-users and investors.

Planned Sports City: A Defining Differentiator
A key factor that sets Sector 150 apart is its integration within Noida’s planned Sports City ecosystem, envisioned as a unique blend of residential planning and sports-led infrastructure.

The sector already reflects this vision through expansive green spaces, sports-friendly layouts, and access to recreational infrastructure. With recent clarity from the Noida Authority and gradual execution of the Sports City framework, Sector 150 is evolving into a wellness-driven urban hub, offering a lifestyle that extends beyond conventional living.

A Rare Low-Density Green Ecosystem
Spread across nearly 300 acres, Sector 150 is among the lowest-density sectors in Noida, with approximately 70% dedicated to green and open spaces.

ACE Group to Expand Presence with New Developments
Having played a pivotal role in shaping Sector 150’s premium landscape through residential developments such as ACE Golfshire and ACE Parkway, as well as the sector’s first commercial destination, Ace Medley Avenue, ACE Group is now set to further strengthen its presence in the sector.

The developer is planning to introduce new developments in Sector 150, aligned with the evolving demand for high-quality, design-led spaces in the micro-market.

Speaking on the evolving potential of the sector, Ajay Chaudhary, Founder, Chairman & Managing Director, ACE Group, said, “Sector 150 is uniquely positioned at the intersection of infrastructure growth and lifestyle-driven planning. With the added clarity around Sports City developments and the rapid progress along the Yamuna Expressway corridor, we are seeing a strong shift in both end-user and investor sentiment. The sector is steadily evolving into a premium hub, and our upcoming developments are aligned with this growing demand for high-quality, design-led spaces.”

The Road Ahead
With strong fundamentals already in place—ranging from infrastructure and connectivity to green planning and premium developments—Sector 150 is increasingly being recognised as a future-ready, investment-worthy destination.

As NCR’s growth expands towards new infrastructure corridors, Sector 150 is not just benefiting from this shift—it is leading the narrative.

Backed by sustained demand, improved livability, and upcoming developments, the sector is well-positioned to remain one of NCR’s most promising real estate micro-markets in the years ahead.

Rising skylines, refined living: The evolution of Noida–Ghaziabad into a luxury real estate hub
 

The shift gained real momentum when infrastructure began to align with intent. The Noida Expressway evolved into a defining spine for high-end residential development, while the FNG Expressway started to redraw accessibility across city edges. What followed was developers stepping in to convert connectivity into a credible product, and building not just homes, but a sense of aspiration and long-term trust. Few developers entered at a time when social infrastructure was still finding its footing, and end-user confidence remained tentative at best. Over time, these calculated risks began to compound, turning locations like Sector 150 and 144, Noida Extension, and Siddharth Vihar into some of the region’s most referenced micro-markets.
 

At the heart of this evolution are developers who approached the market with sharply defined philosophies, each distinctly shaping the region.
 

Gulshan Group - Strengthening its presence in the luxury segment, Gulshan Group has partnered with Indian Hotels Company Limited (IHCL) to bring a landmark hospitality-led development to Noida. The project will feature the country’s tallest Taj hotel along with branded serviced residences, introducing a new dimension of refined, service-driven living to the Noida Expressway. With residences in the Rs. 35–40 crore range, the development is positioned to offer a seamless blend of design, comfort, and the signature hospitality experience associated with the Taj brand, catering to a discerning segment seeking elevated urban lifestyles.
 

Nimbus Group - With a legacy rooted in early investments across emerging corridors, Nimbus Group has evolved into a developer known for strengthening buyer confidence in Noida’s growth micro-markets through a balanced focus on timely delivery, functional design, and long-term livability. Its project, Nimbus The Arista Luxe in Sector 168, exemplifies this approach with thoughtfully planned residences that prioritise open green spaces, efficient layouts, and understated luxury, complemented by double-height entrance lobbies and integrated smart home features. Building on this, the development also introduces a strong wellness-led proposition, with homes designed to maintain indoor air quality (AQI) below 50 through advanced filtration systems- reflecting a shift towards healthier, future-ready urban living.
 

Prateek Group - As one of the earliest luxury developers in Noida, Prateek Group launched the region’s first luxury project, Prateek Stylome, in 2011, followed by Prateek Edifice in 2013 — steadily raising the bar in NCR’s real estate market. Its integrated township, Prateek Grand City in Siddharth Vihar, blends scale with open spaces and lifestyle amenities, while Prateek Canary in Sec-150 Noida offers low-density living with privacy and a premium feel. Through a consistent focus on livability and design, the Group has been instrumental in building buyer confidence in high-value housing.
 

County Group - Operating at the upper end of the spectrum, the Group’s boutique developments have steadily pushed the market beyond conventional premium. Projects like Jade County in Wave City and Clove County in Sector 151, Noida, bring in a more refined, design-led sensibility to emerging and established micro-markets alike, and shape a distinctly aspirational luxury narrative.
 

Experion Developers - An FDI-backed real estate firm, Experion Developers applies a disciplined methodology to residential projects. Following Experion Elements, the firm launched its second project, SAATORI, in Sector 151, Noida, along the Noida Expressway. This low-density, Japanese-inspired community offers three high-rise towers with few residences per core. The company has recently crossed Rs 1800 crore sales for this luxury residential venture. With a strong focus on wellness, green spaces, and globally influenced design, the project underscores Experion’s commitment to crafting future-ready living environments.
 

Delhi NCR recorded 9,677 new residential unit launches in Q1 2026, 26% jump year-on-year basis. Greater Noida and Noida contributed 23% and 4% share, respectively. Sector 150, for instance, emerged as a low-density, lifestyle-driven enclave where planning took precedence over pace, while sectors 144 and 143 along the Noida-Greater Noida Expressway evolved into a definitive premium belt, anchored by consistent developer activity.
 

In many ways, the trajectory of these markets reflects a gradual de-risking led by developers. What began as calculated bets on the outskirts has now turned into NCR’s most established residential landmarks, proving that in real estate, conviction often precedes consensus.

How the Delhi–Dehradun Expressway is Redefining Real Estate Opportunities

With travel time set to reduce from nearly 6–7 hours to approximately 2.5 hours, Dehradun is no longer positioned as a distant retreat. Instead, it is rapidly transitioning into a viable residential extension of NCR. This structural shift is influencing not just accessibility, but also buyer intent, moving from occasional visits to more sustained and frequent usage of homes in the region.

Moreover, this evolving demand dynamic is already beginning to reflect in market indicators. A Magicbricks report highlighted that housing demand across hill destinations grew by 8.2% year-on-year during July–September 2025. Within this, Dehradun recorded one of the sharpest price appreciations at 30.9%, underscoring renewed interest in premium second-home and lifestyle-driven residential markets.

However, the opportunity along this corridor is not uniform. As with any emerging market, value creation is concentrated in projects that are thoughtfully positioned where location, planning, and product differentiation align with evolving buyer expectations. 

It is within this context that developments like Excentia Tatva begin to stand out. Located on Rajpur Road, arguably one of Dehradun’s most established and premium residential corridors, Excentia Tatva responds directly to this shift in demand. Unlike high-density developments that rely on scale, the project adopts a consciously low-density approach, catering to a segment where exclusivity, space, and long-term liveability are key decision drivers.

What distinguishes the development in the current market is not just its location, but how it translates infrastructure-led growth into tangible living value. As connectivity improves, buyers are no longer evaluating second homes purely as investment assets; they are increasingly seeking environments that can function as true extensions of their primary residence. 

Excentia Tatva aligns closely with this evolving preference. Its planning integrates natural and cultural context into the living experience, anchored around a preserved 200-year-old tree courtyard and situated in proximity to spiritual landmarks such as Maa Anandmayee Ashram and Shri Aurobindo Ashram. This contextual integration adds a layer of depth that goes beyond conventional residential offerings.

At the same time, the project reflects a growing emphasis on sustainability and long-term liveability. As one of the early IGBC pre-certified gold-rated residential developments in Dehradun, it incorporates design principles focused on natural light, ventilation, and open green spaces; factors that are increasingly central to buyer decision-making, especially in low AQI environments.

Besides, today, buyers are not looking for standalone apartments, but for self-sustained ecosystems that can support extended stays. Excentia Tatva’s ecosystem of amenities, from a five-star clubhouse and rooftop terraces to an infinity pool and wellness-focused facilities, positions itself as a more self-contained residential environment. In a market that is transitioning from tourism-led to residential-led demand, such features become critical in sustaining both user interest and investment value.

“The opportunity along the Delhi–Dehradun corridor is not just about improved access; it is about how certain projects are positioned to benefit from that shift. In a market that is still in a phase of value discovery, developments that are differentiated by design, density, and location are better placed to create long-term value. Excentia Tatva reflects this approach by focusing on a segment where supply remains limited, but demand is becoming increasingly defined,” said Manit Sethi, Director, Excentia Tatva.

A growing segment of NCR-based professionals and entrepreneurs is now actively seeking alternatives to high-density urban living—prioritising space, privacy, and a stronger connection to nature, without compromising on quality and convenience. Excentia Tatva’s low-density planning and its location within an established, well-connected micro-market allow it to directly cater to this demand. As a result, it is increasingly being viewed not just as a second-home investment, but as a flexible residential option that can adapt to changing lifestyle needs.

“What we are witnessing is a structural shift in how second homes are perceived. They are no longer occasional-use assets, but extensions of everyday living. Projects that can deliver both experiential value and functional liveability are far better positioned to see sustained demand. The focus is clearly moving toward environments that offer cleaner air, lower density, and a more balanced way of living,” added Aniket Sethi, Director, Excentia Tatva.

As the Delhi–Dehradun Expressway continues to enhance regional connectivity, its real impact will unfold through the performance of projects that are able to translate this advantage into long-term value. While the broader market will benefit from improved access, it is developments with strong fundamentals that are likely to lead this next phase of growth. Amidst this, Excentia Tatva represents how infrastructure-led transformation is beginning to shape not just where people invest, but how they choose to live.

Mr. Iflu Rahman, Founder and Managing Director, Crietor Group, Ms. Dadu Iflu, Executive Director, Crietor Group, along with other Directors during The Skye launch event

The Skye has also signed Bollywood actress Shriya Saran - acclaimed for her pan-India appeal and brand associations with Pantene, Lux, Coca-Cola, and Colgate - as its official brand ambassador, signalling the project’s national ambitions and aspirational positioning.

A Home That Shapes the Visionary
Rooted in the philosophy ‘Going, growing and glowing together’, Crietor Group has long committed itself to creating experiences that go beyond transactions. With The Skye, that commitment finds its most ambitious expression yet - a living environment intentionally designed to sharpen thinking, unlock potential, and elevate everyday life.

Speaking at the launch, Mr. Iflu Rahman, Founder & Managing Director, Crietor Group, said, “I believe there is a home behind every visionary. A shift in space is not just emotional, it is scientific. The right environment has the power to unlock deeper clarity, sharper thinking, and greater potential. Visionaries like Steve Jobs and Bill Gates chose serene, intentional settings to shape their lives and ideas. Because every visionary is meant to fly, and to truly fly, they need the sky.”

The Project: India’s Most Elevated Address
Situated at Kashmir Kunnu, a rare tabletop terrain overlooking mist-laden green valleys in Kozhikode, Kerala, The Skye offers a setting of singular natural grandeur - just 12 minutes from the city centre. As Mr. Rahman noted, “The Skye cannot be replicated, for it is nature’s singular and spectacular gift.”

Key Project Highlights:

• Total Area: 10 acres

• Residences: 62 exclusive private luxury homes

• Individual Land Parcels: 7 cents to 12 cents

• Built-Up Area: 3,200 sq. ft. to 5,700 sq. ft.

• Pricing: Starting from Rs. 2.6 Crore onwards (excl. GST & statutory charges)

• Total Project Value: Approximately Rs. 250 Crore

World-Class Amenities for the Discerning Few
The Skye is anchored by a 22,000 sq. ft. clubhouse and penthouse facility, complemented by a curated suite of premium amenities:

• 20-metre swimming pool

• 150-seater conference hall

• Putting mini-golf course & pickleball court

• 1.5 km cycling and jogging track

• Valley view deck

• Functional helipad

Connectivity within the development is equally seamless, with a direct 600-metre access from a 7-metre-wide highway opening into well-laid 9-metre-wide internal roads.

Architecture That Lives and Breathes with Nature
The architecture of The Skye is designed to dissolve the boundary between the built and the natural. Rather than treating the landscape as a backdrop, the design allows the outside to flow inward — creating a continuous, immersive interaction between space, nature, and self.

Mr. Derriel John, COO, Crietor Realty, described the project as “futuristic in its essence, defined by a rare location, timeless architecture, thoughtfully designed amenities, and seamless access to key utilities” — adding that it is “more than a home, an investment in a living work of art that continues to appreciate through its rarity and lasting relevance.”

A Cultural Statement: Shriya Saran & an Exclusive Musical Score
Ms. Dadu Iflu, Executive Director, Crietor Group, noted, “The Skye is already a meeting place of visionaries. Shriya Saran, acclaimed for her pan-Indian appeal as an actor and top-brand endorsements like Pantene, Lux, Coca-Cola, and Colgate, joins as The Skye’s brand ambassador, while Zeba Tommy, the voice behind ‘Queen of the Night’ from Lokah, delivers an exclusive track for the walkthrough.”

The collaboration with Shriya Saran - one of Indian cinema’s most recognisable faces with audiences spanning from Kerala to Mumbai to the Indian diaspora worldwide - underscores The Skye’s positioning as a nationally relevant, culturally resonant luxury development.

The Book: A Manifesto for Elevated Living
The Skye – My Vision for Visionaries is both a philosophical treatise and a creative blueprint. It reframes the concept of a home as an active participant in a person’s growth journey — arguing that spaces crafted with clear intent begin to shape how people think, create, and lead. The book draws on the lives of global icons who chose intentional environments to do their best work, and concludes with an invitation: the future is not something to wait for, but something to design and inhabit.

About Crietor Group

Operating across real estate, retail, and allied sectors, the Group is guided by its enduring credo: Future Holds Good.

Vaibhav Kanabar & Saumitra Bhatkhalkar from West Avenue Realty successfully raise 50 crores NCDs Within Three Years of Operations
 

At a time that the real estate market is experiencing a constant cautious market place for investors due to ongoing worldwide disputes, and as the most recent decline in the stock markets with only a handful of capital deployments, there have been substantial and strong commitments from investors in West Avenue Realty. This level of investment in West Avenue Realty illustrates that the investment community believes that West Avenue Realty has established a clear discipline in the execution of its investment thesis and a reliable track record of successful past investments.

Since inception, the focus of the organization has been to acquire projects at marque locations such as Khar, Juhu, Carter Road, Mahalaxmi, Dadar, Wadala and Panvel. These strategic acquisitions highlight West Avenue Realty’s ability to identify high-potential opportunities and execute efficiently on-ground.

The funds raised will be utilized to expand the Company’s project pipeline, grow its presence in key Mumbai markets and speed up the execution of current developments.

According to Mr. Vaibhav Kanabar of West Avenue Realty, “The milestone demonstrates the confidence that our investors have in our vision and our execution of our vision. As you know, there is a long period of time in this business to build credibility, so it is very satisfying that we accomplished this in three years, which is a very good indication that we are committed to growing responsibly and creating value."

Mr Saumitra Bhatkhalkar from West Avenue Realty said, “As West Avenue Realty continues to expand its footprint, the company remains focused on delivering high-quality developments with designing standards being the core element of the deliverables.”

About West Avenue Realty
West Avenue Realty develops and builds high quality real estate for both residential and commercial purposes in Mumbai, India. Founded with a purpose of building quality and desirable homes and work areas that provide the highest level of quality of construction, aspirational design and intelligent use of space. West Avenue Realty was created to provide you with a development that not only meets your practical needs, but also enhances your quality of life and enhances your community. Our core belief is that we do not only create a place for people to live; we provide the backdrop for people's most memorable times in their lives. Furthermore, West Avenue Realty operates with strict financial discipline in order to continue to grow, execute projects successfully and create value for its stakeholders through its financial performance.

ASBL has taken a very different path to market its latest project. Instead of just following the usual way, they took a different and unique approach. This time, they joined hands with a movie called DACOIT - A Love Story starring Adivi Sesh, Mrunal Thakur, Anurag Kashyap and Prakash Raj. This is not a usual tie-up. ASBL changed movie posters into offer-based posters that speak directly to home buyers. The idea is simple. It is structured as a true “Dacoit Deal (steal deal),” where buyers get real financial benefit from day one.
 

ASBL Loft partners with Dacoit to offer a smart rental income opportunity
 

With this campaign, ASBL LOFT introduces an exciting offer. Buyers can now get a monthly income of Rs. 85,000 till December 2026. This is for the first 100 units only. This Dacoit deal will help buyers earn even before moving into their home. What makes this even more interesting is the way ASBL has tied this offer with the film. A real estate brand working closely with a movie like DACOIT – A Love Story is not something you see often. The team is also planning fun on-ground events and activities around the film and the project, making the whole experience more lively. This creative mix of cinema and real estate makes the offer feel fresh, engaging, and truly different.
 

Usually, buying a Rs. 2 Cr flat means paying around Rs. 40 lakh upfront. On top of that, buyers also start paying EMIs during construction. This means money goes out, but nothing comes in for years. Because of this, many people want to invest but cannot manage such high costs at once.
 

ASBL Loft solves this problem in a simple and smart way. Instead of asking for 20% upfront, buyers can book a 3 BHK with just Rs. 10 lakh. This is around 5% of the total value. The remaining 15% can be paid in installments. This reduces the stress of paying a large amount at once.
 

The biggest benefit is the monthly income. From the day you book, ASBL pays Rs. 85,000 every month till December 2026. At the same time, the bank gives a home loan and releases money in stages. So, you only pay interest on the disbursed amount. This is called pre-EMI.
 

In simple words, the Rs. 85,000 you receive every month helps cover your pre-EMI cost. You will not just be saving money, you will also be earning during construction. And all this starts with a much lower initial payment.
 

ASBL Loft is located in the Financial District and offers premium 3 BHK homes. The project spreads across 4.92 acres and includes three tall towers with G+45 floors. Homes come with large balconies and smart layouts. The project also has a 55,000 sq. ft. clubhouse and a modern urban corridor for a better lifestyle.
 

The current prices are also clear and simple. A 1695 sq. ft. home is priced at Rs. 1.94 Cr, all inclusive plus GST. A bigger 1870 sq. ft. home is priced at Rs. 2.15 Cr, all inclusive plus GST. Buyers can start with just Rs. 10 lakh booking, making it easier to plan.
 

ASBL always thinks about one thing first, how to make life easier for its customers. They build user-friendly homes that are more comfortable and useful. Now, they are taking one more step by making the financial part easier too. With ASBL Loft, they are not just selling homes, they are also reducing the stress of paying big amounts early and the financial stress EMIs bring while buying a home. This smart deal is part of that thought. Partnering with a film like DACOIT also shows their creative side. It is a rare and fresh idea that brings something new to real estate marketing.

Alaknanda by Hero Realty 
 

One of the developments reflecting this trend is Alaknanda by Hero Realty. Located along the Delhi-Dehradun Highway (NH-58), the project is part of a larger 88-acre township in Haridwar. The recently launched plotted phase, spread across 4.7 acres with over 170 plots, saw strong demand, with the entire inventory sold out shortly after launch. With prices starting from Rs. 35 lakh, the project is positioned in the mid-housing segment and is expected to be completed by February 2029, catering to both end-users and long-term investors.
 

What sets such developments apart is their focus on early-stage planning and infrastructure readiness. At Alaknanda, key site infrastructure, including internal roads and essential services, has already been put in place. The township also offers lifestyle features such as sports amenities, open green spaces, and community areas. Its proximity to institutions like IIT Roorkee and healthcare facilities such as Patanjali Ayurvedic Hospital further adds to its appeal.
 

This reflects a broader shift in buyer expectations from standalone plots to integrated, self-sustained communities that offer a better quality of living.
 

Manoj Dixit, AMM Property, and Channel Partner for Hero Realty expressed, “We have been working with Hero Realty since 2020, and our experience with Alaknanda over the last five years has been quite positive. The project stands out for its well-planned layout, wider roads and ample green areas, which are key factors for today’s buyers. Being RERA-registered also adds to the confidence among investors. In fact, we are seeing that many buyers who invest here often come back for repeat investments, reflecting strong satisfaction and trust in the development.”
 

The investment potential of the region further strengthens its appeal. Market trends indicate that property prices in this micro-market have grown nearly five times over the past 13 years, with appreciation levels reaching around 500%. This steady growth has positioned Haridwar as not just a spiritual destination, but also a viable market for long-term real estate investment.
 

Manish Ahuja, a resident at the township shared his views, “I had an excellent experience with Hero Realty. The team is backed by a strong group and a credible brand, which immediately gave me confidence. What impressed me the most was their commitment to transparency and trust throughout the entire process. It’s clear they prioritize quality and customer satisfaction, making the whole experience smooth and reassuring.”
 

As the city continues to evolve, the demand for well-planned developments is expected to grow further. Projects like Alaknanda highlight how integrated townships, supported by infrastructure and connectivity, are shaping a more structured and sustainable residential landscape in emerging cities like Haridwar.

MRG Crown, Sector 106, Gurugram

Knight Frank India's latest report has noted a notable change in the market where houses with a price tag of above Rs 10 million accounted for 50% of the total residential sales in the top eight cities of India in 2025. Out of a total of 348,247 units sold during the year, about 175,091 units belonged to the category of houses with a price tag of above Rs 10 million, which is an increase of 14% over the previous year, with sales volumes staying flat and high.

Besides, the definition of “premium” in NCR’s housing market is seeing a shift. It is no longer defined by a price bracket or a ticket price level; instead, it is being redefined in terms of experiences, design, and identity. Today’s premium home is just as much about experiences and living as it is about price. This is also reflected in the supply side, where an increasing proportion of supply is aligned to this new premium, and in the buyer profile, where there is an expansion of this market across a broader spectrum of price points. Premium, therefore, is no longer an economic definition but a conceptual one, based on how people want to live, and not merely on what they can afford.

Another aspect of equal importance is the emergence of a new form of a premium homebuyer, whose characteristics have moved beyond just a high net-worth individual. A staggering 63% of homebuyers today classify real estate as a preferred investment option, which reflects a more financially savvy approach to homebuying. This trend is now being fueled by dual-income households, along with a new set of wealth creators from startup economies and GCC-led employment growth. What is particularly telling is the widening participation across ticket sizes, from the Rs. 1–3 crore bracket to higher-value segments, indicating that premium housing is no longer the preserve of legacy capital. Instead, it is being shaped by an aspirational, upwardly mobile buyer class whose purchasing power is matched by a clear intent to upgrade both lifestyle and asset quality.

Further, the demand is increasingly concentrated in new premium locations like Dwarka Expressway and Noida Expressway, which are driving nearly 75–80% of the high-value transactions, reflecting the trend towards planned and low-density living. Developments such as MRG Crown, fronting Dwarka Expressway in Sector 106, Gurugram, exemplify this shift, where projects are being positioned around curated living environments, improved connectivity, and access to emerging urban infrastructure.

“As homebuyers become more discerning, the focus is clearly shifting towards integrated living environments where connectivity, planning, and lifestyle come together seamlessly. Infrastructure-led corridors like Dwarka Expressway are driving this transformation and redefining what premium living means in NCR,” said Rajjath Goel, Managing Director, MRG Group.

At the same time, even as the overall volumes are moderating, the trend in value growth is still dominated by larger configurations, reflecting a decisive shift towards more expansive and functional living spaces. It is not just about living in bigger homes; it is about investing in more efficient living. The fact is, people are not paying for space; they are paying for how well that space is optimized.

There is a parallel change in the manner in which houses are perceived as living spaces. This is also evident in the supply side, where premium houses now make up almost 74% of new launches in the NCR region, similar to the demand side, which is actively seeking more than just space. This is also evident in the prices, where there is an increase of almost 14% in residential prices, mainly due to the sustained performance in premium houses. There is also a trend towards homes that are providing a cohesive living experience. The rise of gated communities is also a reflection of this trend, and it is clear that for the new-age premium buyer, the product is not just the apartment.

Moreover, another significant change in definition relates to the way in which location is being judged and measured, as buyers are now focusing more on micro-market intelligence as compared to city-level intelligence. The fact that premium homes in NCR are now clearly seen to be appreciating in clusters along infrastructure-led corridors, where connectivity and growth potential are at their highest, underlines the fact that the NCR market as a whole has seen a significant appreciation in property values to the tune of almost 24% on a yearly basis. Corridors such as Dwarka Expressway and Southern Peripheral Road are now seen as primary options as compared to peripheral options, and this can be attributed to the fact that there has been sustained government investment in road infrastructure, as well as in the expansion of the Metro and reduction in travel times. The fact remains that the premium homebuyer of today is no longer constrained by traditional CBDs but is making decisions based on where the city is going, as opposed to where it has been.

The evolution of buyer aspirations is also being mirrored in developer strategies in NCR, although not as a catalyst but rather as a response to the changing aspirations of the buyer. This is also being reflected in a gradual move towards fewer, better-curated launches, where quality is being given greater importance over quantity. Hence, supply is not being pushed into the market but rather being curated in response to a more evolved buyer, thereby reflecting a greater degree of coherence between what is being supplied and what is being demanded.

It is, therefore, in the midst of such evolution in the residential market in NCR that it is becoming increasingly apparent that the change is not only structural, but it is here to stay. The market is moving from one where the driving force was affordability constraints to one where the driving force is aspiration, driven by consumption patterns, where the purchase decision is underpinned as much by aspiration as it is by affordability. Thus, the region is slowly and steadily emerging as one where aspiration is not just present, but is the guiding force behind the residential market.

The Falcon by Dalcore

Located in Sector 53 on Golf Course Road, one of Gurugram’s most prestigious and well-connected addresses, The Falcon is envisioned as a globally benchmarked residential landmark that seamlessly integrates architecture, interiors, and lifestyle design. The project’s interiors have been designed by YOO Inspired by Starck, with architectural planning / exterior architectural planning led by internationally acclaimed firm UHA, bringing together global design intelligence and local contextual sensitivity in a single, cohesive vision.

Commenting on the launch, Sidharth Chowdhry, Managing Director, Dalcore, said, “The Falcon represents a defining moment for Dalcore as we introduce North India’s first YOO-branded residences. This project reflects our commitment to bringing globally celebrated design philosophies to India’s most discerning homebuyers. With YOO Inspired by Starck’s design vision and UHA’s architectural expertise, we are creating a residential landmark that goes beyond conventional luxury to offer a deeply curated living experience rooted in design, innovation, and long-term value.”

Spread across approximately 2 acres, The Falcon is planned as a single iconic high-rise tower comprising around 96 ultra-luxury residences. The development will feature expansive 3 BHK and 4 BHK homes, thoughtfully designed to offer privacy, scale, and refined spatial experiences. Residences are expected to be priced at ₹10 crore and above, positioning the project firmly within Gurugram’s ultra-premium residential segment.

Sharing his perspective as YOO Inpired by Starck Creative Director, Philippe Starck said, “In the beating heart of one of the most prestigious and ever-developing neighbourhoods in India, The Falcon is a visionary YOO Inspired by Starck project—a rare haven of elegance and privacy.”

At the core of The Falcon’s identity is its design philosophy, led by YOO Inspired by Starck, which brings a distinctive, globally recognisable aesthetic to every aspect of the development. From private residences, the clubhouse, common areas, and landscaped environments, the project reflects a unified design language that balances artistic expression with functional sophistication. Subtle, warm, poetic, and functional, every space is imagined as a place for sharing, meeting, and dreaming, to inspire and elevate life. The Falcon offers two interior styles for the private residences: Minimal and Classic.

Classic is most appealing to the connoisseur with an understanding and enjoyment of the finer things in life. Classic is a sophisticated style with a strong mix of classic elements and contemporary objects. The spirit of Minimal is clean and calm. A modern edge, incorporating glass, metal, concrete and neutral colors allowing the mind to find space and meditate. Minimal is ideal for those who want to add their own layers and ideas. It can work as a simple start in deciding how you want to live. An almost blank canvas where you can gradually add objects to reflect your tastes and personality.

Translating this vision into built form, the tower’s architecture led by UHA departs from conventional high-rise formats to adopt a sculptural, fluid expression. The structure is composed of softly contoured, pod-like volumes, creating a distinctive skyline presence while enhancing natural light, ventilation, and spatial fluidity within residences. Sustainability and climate responsiveness have been integral to the design approach, with careful consideration of orientation, sun paths, and wind movement to optimise energy efficiency and thermal comfort.

Beyond residences, The Falcon is conceived as a holistic living ecosystem anchored by a curated suite of lifestyle and wellness amenities. Residents will have access to an exclusive clubhouse featuring fitness and wellness facilities, social and recreational spaces, and thoughtfully designed zones for leisure, work, and community engagement. The development aims to deliver a balanced, multi-dimensional lifestyle that caters to both individual and collective experiences.

RBI holding the repo rate at 5.25% ensures stability for real estate, keeping borrowing costs steady and supporting housing demand despite ongoing global uncertainties

Developers believe that stable borrowing costs and policy continuity will help sustain end-user demand, support project viability, and provide much-needed visibility for both residential and commercial segments, even as expectations of a future rate cut remain intact.

Deepak Kapoor, Director, Gulshan Group, says, “In the backdrop of global volatility and inflationary pressures driven by high energy prices, the RBI’s move to hold the repo rate steady at 5.25% reinforces confidence in India’s economic resilience. The upward revision in near-term GDP projections further strengthens this outlook. For real estate, stable borrowing costs and policy continuity create a conducive environment for sustained demand, and we remain optimistic about steady growth across residential segments through the year.”

Prateek Tiwari, Managing Director, Prateek Group, says, “The RBI’s decision to keep the repo rate unchanged at 5.25% is a balanced approach against a backdrop of global economic uncertainties and geopolitical pressures. For the housing sector, the consistent rate helps strengthen sentiment, reassuring buyers and keeping financing conditions stable. This plays a key role in home buyers' purchasing decisions, particularly for first-time buyers and end-users exploring opportunities in strong demand corridors.”

Sahil Agarwal, CEO, Nimbus Group, says, “The central bank’s neutral stance reflects a calibrated and forward-looking approach to managing inflationary pressures and uncertainty. This continuity in borrowing costs boosts confidence, supports end-user demand, and strengthens project viability. We believe this will encourage sustained investment and reinforce positive momentum across the sector.”

Amit Modi, Director, County Group, says, “A marginal rate cut at this juncture would have offered meaningful relief to homebuyers, especially first-time borrowers managing stretched affordability in key urban markets. For the sector, this is a phase of resilience rather than acceleration, where confidence matters as much as the cost of capital."

Sanchit Bhutani, Managing Director, Group 108, says, “A steady repo rate combined with a neutral policy stance bodes well for the commercial real estate sector. It provides greater visibility on borrowing costs, fostering confidence among developers, investors, and occupiers alike. For developers, this stability enables more predictable project planning and efficient liquidity management.”

Moreover, amid escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and the resulting risks of imported inflation, the RBI’s decision to hold the repo rate has resonated positively with the real estate sector.

Sanjay Sharma, Director, SKA Group, says, “Maintaining the repo rate at 5.25% reflects a clear “wait and watch” approach from the RBI amid global uncertainty. For real estate, this brings stable but subdued financing conditions. While developers would have welcomed a rate cut to further unlock demand momentum, especially in the affordable and mid-housing categories, the current geopolitical backdrop is keeping inflation risks elevated.”

Tejpreet Gill, Managing Director, Gillco Group, says, “The RBI’s decision to maintain the repo rate at 5.25% with a neutral stance underscores policy stability at a time of global uncertainty and inflationary concerns. For the real estate sector, stable interest rates enable long-term planning and execution, while supporting sustained traction across residential and commercial projects.”

Nitin Shrivastava, Managing Partner, Big FM Realty, says, "Stability in policy matters more than aggressive interventions. The RBI’s decision to keep the repo rate at 5.25% comes as a reassuring signal, especially for the housing sector. For homebuyers, it means EMIs remain predictable, making it easier to plan purchases with confidence. For developers, it supports pricing discipline and allows supply to be introduced in a more measured way.”

Udit Jain, Director, One Group, says, “The unchanged repo rate strengthens the outlook for housing in Tier 2 cities, where markets are still evolving and respond sharply to interest rate signals. In these regions, buyers tend to be more cautious and value clarity over short-term incentives, and stable home loan rates help build that confidence. For developers, it creates a more predictable demand environment, where launches can be planned with greater alignment to actual absorption.”

Piyush Kansal, Executive Director, Royale Estate Group, says, “Despite near-term inflationary pressures driven by global factors, the current rate environment ensures predictable borrowing costs. This will encourage end-users to make purchase decisions, supporting steady demand across emerging cities."

Ajendra Singh, Vice-President – Sales & Marketing, Spectrum Metro, says, “RBI’s keeping repo rate stable comes as a positive step for the retail segment, where consumption and expansion plans are closely linked to borrowing conditions. With interest rates holding steady, retailers and brands get better visibility on financing costs, while developers can have more structured planning of retail assets and tenant mix. In a broader sense, a predictable rate environment supports steady leasing activity and healthier occupancies across organised retail spaces.”

Real estate leaders welcome RBI’s neutral stance as steady repo rate ensures stability in home loans, EMIs, and sector growth momentum

Sandeep Chhillar, Founder & Chairman, Landmark Group, says, "The announcement comes at a time when global uncertainty is still quite high. RBI has avoided a premature shift that could have unsettled the broader economy. The neutral stance shows a clear awareness of both inflation risks and uneven global growth trends. For the real estate, this means near-stable home loan rates, giving policymakers space to assess data more carefully."

Pankaj Jain, Founder and CMD, SPJ Group, says, "Maintaining the repo rate at 5.25% is a pragmatic move in an environment still shaped by global headwinds. It brings much-needed stability to home loan markets. For borrowers, this effectively means EMIs are likely to remain in the same range for now, without any immediate easing in interest burden. While a slight rate cut would have offered some relief and improved affordability at the margin, the RBI has clearly chosen to wait for stronger macro signals before shifting direction.”

Shamsheer Singh, Director of AIPL Group, adds, “The RBI’s unchanged repo rate reflects a conscious effort to preserve ongoing growth momentum without introducing unnecessary friction. At 5.25%, the policy rate remains supportive enough to sustain credit flow, while the neutral stance ensures flexibility for future adjustments. The decision suggests confidence that the current interest rate environment is adequately balanced for both inflation management and economic activity.”

Gurpal Singh Chawla, Managing Director, TREVOC, says, "With GDP growth projections revised upwards and inflation expected to remain within a manageable range despite near-term pressures, the RBI’s decision to keep the repo rate unchanged at 5.25% will provide continued stability to the sector. The neutral stance reflects a calibrated approach amid global uncertainties. This, coupled with stable liquidity conditions and improving investment sentiment, will help maintain the current momentum in real estate.”

Shyamrup Roy Choudhury, Founder and Managing Director, Aura World, says, “The RBI’s decision to maintain the repo rate and choose a neutral stance ensures continuity in the benefits accrued from last year’s cumulative rate cuts. Stable EMIs and predictable financing conditions will encourage new homebuyers to enter the market. While inflationary risks persist due to global developments, the stance taken by the RBI ensures policy certainty.”

Ashok Singh Jaunapuria, MD & CEO, SS Group, says, “For homebuyers, steady benchmark rates translate into more predictable home loan offerings. For developers, too, it brings comfort on the financing side, allowing uninterrupted project execution. This steady policy stance quietly supports housing demand by keeping sentiment steady and avoiding any disruption in credit conditions.”

Harinder Singh Hora, Founder Chairman, Reach Group, says, “The RBI’s decision to keep the repo rate unchanged brings much-needed stability across lending and liquidity channels. It ensures that borrowing costs for businesses, retailers, and developers remain predictable, which is crucial for planning expansions and leasing strategies. The neutral stance will reduce uncertainty around credit pricing and enable institutional players to take more structured, long-term decisions.”

Umang Jindal, CEO, Homeland Group, says, “The status quo on the repo rate at 5.25% creates a balanced and predictable environment for both residential and commercial segments. Stable financing conditions support homebuyer confidence in tier 2 cities, where affordability plays a major role, while also enabling investments in commercial assets. This continuity in policy will help sustain demand momentum and reinforce growth across key real estate segments.”

Mohit Batra, Regional Director, Realistic Realtors, says, “The RBI’s decision to keep the repo rate unchanged reflects a data-led and cautious approach. Inflation is still being shaped by global commodity movements and uneven supply-side pressures. The neutral stance is equally important; it signals that policy is balanced for now. It allows both residential and commercial markets to operate in a stable interest rate environment.’

Raj Kumar Sisodia, COO of Biigtech, says, "In a market where long-term commitments drive decision-making, consistent interest rates help occupiers and investors move ahead with greater confidence. Rather than triggering a surge, this kind of policy environment quietly supports steady momentum, where demand builds gradually, and investment decisions are made with a longer-term view."

Paras Rai, Managing Director and Co-Founder, Property Master, “The RBI’s decision to keep the repo rate unchanged while maintaining a neutral stance reflects a conscious effort to stay flexible. It gives the central bank room to respond as macro conditions evolve, rather than committing to a fixed direction too early. This kind of pause is less about inaction and more about staying prepared. At the same time, it signals that future rate moves will be closely linked to how inflation and global factors play out in the coming months."

Ashwani Kumar, Pyramid Infratech, said, “Keeping the repo rate unchanged is a carefully balanced approach as it will facilitate stability for home loan borrowers at a crucial time. For prospective buyers, stable interest rates encourage affordability levels and lessen uncertainty around long-term financial commitments. Since home loans are directly subjected to the impact of rate cut movements, the status quo ensures that EMIs remain unchanged for existing borrowers, offering much-needed predictability in household cash flows.”

SAATORI, our second project in Noida following the success of Experion Elements, has witnessed an exceptional response, with Rs. 1,800 crore in sales at launch. This performance is a strong validation of the deepening demand for luxury housing in Noida, particularly for developments that bring together design excellence, wellness-focused living, and a differentiated lifestyle proposition. With its strategic location near key infrastructure corridors, including Jewar Airport, and a rapidly maturing social and corporate ecosystem, we see sustained momentum in both end-user demand and investment interest in this market,” said Priyamvada Navet, Dy CEO, Experion Developers.

M3M India's delivers its 13th Retail Project, ‘M3M Paragon57’ in Delhi-NCR
 

Spread across 3.16 acre, M3M Paragon57 comprises a total of 554 units, with a saleable area of approximately 5 Lac sq. ft. The project integrates high-street retail with serviced apartments, aligning with evolving urban consumption patterns and demand for integrated developments.
 

The project will achieve a topline of approximately Rs. 1,000 crore with an investment of Rs. 560 crore, reflecting strong market response and investor confidence.
 

M3M Paragon57 is poised to become one of the landmark destinations in Gurugram, offering a vibrant and well-curated mix of retail, lifestyle, and dining experiences. The development will feature prominent anchor brands such as Westside, LuLu Hypermarket, and Jetts Fitness India, ensuring strong footfall and a dynamic shopping environment. Complementing these anchors is an extensive lineup of popular retail, fashion, food and beverage brands, including Levi's, CaratLane, Looks Salon, Puma, GIVA, Honey & Dough, BlueStone, Aretto, Bewakoof, Blue Tokai, Mini Klub, Nobero, Wrogn, Lime Light, Just In Time, and Pepe Jeans, among others.
 

Robin Mangla, President, M3M India said, "The receipt of the Occupancy Certificate for M3M Paragon57 is a significant milestone. It reflects our commitment to timely delivery and quality execution. We have already pre-leased approx. 60% of the retail space, underscoring robust demand from leading brands and operators. The development is expected to emerge as a key commercial and lifestyle destination in the Sector 57 micro-market. The strong pre-leasing traction highlights the growing demand for curated retail environments and integrated developments in Gurugram."
 

M3M Paragon57 stands out because of its strong, ready-to-use location advantage. It sits in a well- developed and densely populated area (Sushant Lok Phase 3) surrounded by premium residential societies and daily footfall drivers, which is ideal for retail. The project enjoys excellent connectivity, being just off Golf Course Extension Road with smooth access to Sohna Road and other key parts of Gurugram, along with proximity to the Sector 55–56 Rapid Metro. Its catchment includes affluent residents with high spending capacity, making it suitable for premium retail and F&B outlets. Unlike projects in developing zones, this location already has established infrastructure like schools, hospitals, and offices, reducing risk and improving business viability.
 

The completion of M3M Paragon57 comes at a time when Gurugram’s commercial real estate market is witnessing renewed momentum. Developers across the region are focusing on mixed-use and high-street retail formats to cater to changing consumer behaviour.
 

Industry experts note that high-street retail developments with strong catchment areas and curated tenant mixes are increasingly outperforming traditional mall formats. The rise in pre-leasing activity across projects signals growing retailer confidence and sustained consumer demand.

ASBL, a tech-first real estate company, was a platinum sponsor at the Python Conference Hyderabad 2026. The event was held on March 14 and 15, 2026, at the Engineering Staff College of India, Hyderabad. It brought together developers, engineers, and technology professionals from across the country.

Abhijith Reddy, CTO of ASBL at Python Conference Hyderabad 2026

At the conference, Abhijith Reddy, CTO of ASBL, explained how technology in real estate is solving real challenges across construction, sales, and resident living. He highlighted that the industry still struggles with basic but critical problems in construction, such as maintaining budget discipline, managing material and labour payments, detecting delays early, and ensuring consistent quality.

ASBL is addressing these challenges using advanced prop tech solutions. The company has developed a digital twin system along with mobile apps and planning tools. In simple terms, every building is mapped digitally, and each task is clearly assigned. Teams know what work needs to be done, where it should happen, and in what order. Once a task is completed, proof is uploaded and verified before moving forward. This approach improves control, increases accountability, detects delays faster, and strengthens quality checks.

The same approach is applied to sales. Abhijith Reddy explained that the focus is on identifying the right customers, understanding buyer needs, automating outreach, and simplifying financing. By using structured data, automation, and AI in real estate, ASBL is making the sales process more efficient and responsive. This also creates a smoother experience for both customers and sales teams.

He also spoke about life after handover, where many real estate processes remain manual. In gated communities, there are multiple moving parts such as residents, staff, visitors, service requests, and amenities. Managing all of this can be complex without the right systems in place.

ASBL addresses this through Homes by ASBL, its dedicated resident management app. The app allows residents to manage daily activities in one place. From booking amenities to raising service requests and receiving updates, everything is handled digitally, making daily living simpler and more organized.

ASBL has also digitized the entire home-buying journey. Documentation workflows, approvals, and customer communication are handled through technology. This reduces the need for physical visits and makes the process easier, especially for NRIs purchasing homes from abroad.

By leveraging AI, they automate repetitive tasks, speed up development, and reduce errors, which allows them to focus on solving real-world real estate challenges. In a month alone, they used 3.8 billion tokens, a testament to how cursor usage drives innovation and efficiency across all the processes.

ASBL believes it is not a real estate company doing tech, but a tech company doing real estate. By supporting the Python community and showcasing the use of AI in real estate and prop tech, ASBL reinforced its vision of building better homes and better customer experiences through technology.

Luxury housing drives the bulk of residential sales across India’s top cities as the market's center of gravity shifts toward premium living

The shift is being anchored by something far more enduring than sentiment–infrastructure. The recently inaugurated Noida International Airport has, in many ways, reset how the corridor is perceived, lending it both global relevance and long-term visibility. This is complemented by the ease of movement along the Noida–Greater Noida Expressway, offering seamless access into Delhi while strengthening regional connectivity across emerging nodes. What lends depth to this transformation is the quiet strengthening of an economic ecosystem that can sustain it. The steady expansion of IT and ITeS hubs, alongside a growing presence of corporate campuses along the Noida–Greater Noida Expressway, has created a well-defined employment spine.

According to the Anarock report, average residential prices in Noida stood at approximately Rs 4,795 per sq. ft. in 2020. By Q1 2025, that figure had risen to Rs 9,200 per sq. ft, a growth of nearly 92%. Greater Noida performed even stronger at 98%, outpacing the broader NCR average of 81%.

But more telling is the profile of the buyer this ecosystem is attracting: a younger, globally exposed professional cohort from technology, startups, and consulting. This is not legacy wealth repositioning itself; it is new wealth making conscious choices, prioritising environments that reflect how they live and work today.

Within this larger narrative, certain micro-markets are beginning to define the character of the corridor more distinctly. Noida Sector 150, in particular, has emerged as a lifestyle anchor, marked by its low-density planning, expansive green cover, and a clear preference for larger, more thoughtfully designed residences. It offers a sense of openness that is increasingly difficult to find in older urban clusters. Around it, sectors such as 128 and 137 are steadily evolving as natural extensions of this luxury spine, adding depth and continuity to the belt. Together, these micro-markets are not just participating in the corridor’s growth; they are shaping what luxury along the expressway is beginning to stand for.

Besides, equally telling is the kind of developer interest the corridor is drawing. Prominent players such as Prateek Group, County Group, Experion Developers, and CRC Group have been steadily shaping the luxury narrative here, bringing with them a certain clarity of product and positioning. Within this landscape, Prateek Group’s Prateek Canary in Sector 150 stands out as a reflection of how demand itself is evolving towards more low-density design-led homes, larger configurations, and amenities that go beyond the expected. Importantly, this is not supply trying to create aspiration; it is supply responding to a buyer who already knows what they want.

Investors, too, are engaging with a longer horizon, viewing the expressway as a value corridor in the making rather than a quick-turn opportunity. In many ways, the buyer here is not upgrading within the same geography; they are upgrading their definition of living.

Amit Modi, Director, County Group, says, “The Noida Expressway belt today is seeing a very different kind of luxury buyer: one who is globally exposed yet deeply pragmatic. For many HNIs and NRIs, the decision is no longer driven by legacy pin codes, but by future potential and quality of life. What this corridor offers is scale, openness, and a level of planning that older markets simply cannot replicate anymore. We are seeing buyers who are comfortable entering early because they recognise the long-term value of infrastructure-led growth. In many ways, this is less about shifting locations and more about aligning with where the next decade of NCR’s luxury housing story will unfold.”

Salil Kumar, Director-Marketing and Business Management, CRC Group, adds, “What we are witnessing along the Noida Expressway belt is not a short-term demand cycle, but a direct outcome of sustained infrastructure investment. The recently inaugurated Noida International Airport has played a defining role in reshaping buyer perception; it has effectively put this corridor on a global map. Alongside this, improved connectivity and planned urban development have created the right ecosystem for luxury housing to thrive. Buyer’s today is far more informed; they are tracking infrastructure timelines and making decisions accordingly. This is why the demand here feels measured and confident, backed by visibility, not speculation.”

Thus, what is unfolding is a redefinition of where and how luxury chooses to exist within NCR. As infrastructure deepens and the ecosystem matures, the Noida Expressway is beginning to influence what the next chapter of luxury living in NCR will look like.

Rizwan Sajan, Founder and Chairman of Danube Group

Founder and Chairman Rizwan Sajan is demonstrating strong leadership by standing firmly with the company's employees.

With the US–Israel–Iran conflict reshaping geopolitical and economic realities, businesses across the region are being tested on their ability to adapt and endure. Against this backdrop, Danube's commitment provides stability and reassurance to its staff and stakeholders. 

Recently, Sajan took to Instagram to announce that the company will not lay off any employees. “I’ve faced many challenging situations in the past - from the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait to the 2008 financial crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite these, we have always bounced back stronger, and I’m confident we will do so again. During the pandemic, I had committed to not letting go of any employees, and I stood by that promise. Similarly, there will be no layoffs at Danube Group this time as well,” he said.

He further added, “Our 6000+ employees are not just our workforce - they are our family. They helped build Danube Group into what it is today. In times like these, we stand by them with the same commitment. All salaries will be paid on time, and we remain dedicated to serving our clients and customers.”

Over the years, Danube Group has developed a diversified and agile structure spanning building materials, real estate, and home solutions, allowing it to respond effectively to changing market conditions.

In fact, Danube Properties recently unveiled its first large-scale integrated community, Greenz by Danube, featuring premium townhouses and villas, starting from AED 3.5 million with their iconic 1% monthly payment plan, which has been well received by investors and homeowners alike. 

The company continues to prioritize execution, ensuring timely project delivery and honoring commitments. As it navigates current geopolitical challenges, Danube Group is not only holding its ground but reinforcing its position - demonstrating that strong fundamentals and decisive leadership can turn uncertainty into sustained progress.

About Danube Properties
Danube Properties, a subsidiary of the Danube Group founded in 1993 by Rizwan Sajan, is among the UAE’s leading private real estate developers. Known for pioneering the 1% payment plan, the company delivers fully furnished apartments complemented by over 40 lifestyle amenities, with a strong track record of quality construction and timely delivery.

Greenz By Danube

Strategically located in Dubai International Academic City, near Dubai Silicon Oasis, Greenz sits within one of Dubai’s most promising future growth corridors. The area is home to over 100,000 residents and will benefit from the upcoming District IO, a major technology hub aligned with the vision of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum.

Featuring villas and townhouses with exclusive sky gardens, Greenz By Danube’s completion is expected in 36 to 40 months with handover scheduled for Q4 2029.

Rizwan Sajan, Founder and Chairman of Danube Group, said, “Greenz by Danube sets new benchmark for premium master communities - a first-of-its-kind living experience in Dubai. Designed with low-density planning, it ensures prime location and high appreciation guarantee. With 50+ luxury amenities and fully furnished, designer-curated interiors with Dolce Vita, every detail reflects elegance and distinction. Greenz is not just a community - it is a luxury lifestyle experience of a lifetime.”

The development offers 3- and 4-bedroom townhouses, 5-bedroom semi-detached villas, and 5-bedroom twin villas, catering to both families and investors.

Luxury housing drives the bulk of residential sales across India’s top cities as the market's center of gravity shifts toward premium living

According to JLL India, homes priced above Rs. 1 crore accounted for nearly 63% of total residential sales in 2025, up from about 53% the year before. Total residential sales value has edged past Rs. 6 lakh crore.

It is amplified by what Knight Frank India attributes to the steady expansion of India’s high-net-worth population. IPO activity alone, over $19 billion raised across more than 100 companies in 2025, has created a fresh layer of liquidity that is not particularly price-sensitive in residential decisions.

Arjun Gehlot, Director, Ambience Group, says, "Luxury housing is increasingly driving residential sales across India’s top cities, led by a clear shift in buyer priorities. At the top end, brand credibility has become non-negotiable. Buyers are aligning with developers who can deliver consistently, while also evaluating financial strength, execution track record, and long-term design quality. This segment is witnessing a more informed, investment-led approach, which is influencing how developers plan, partner, and position their offerings.”

“From an investment standpoint, luxury housing is offering more predictable value retention. That is attracting a different class of investor, one that is less speculative and more strategic. Infrastructure has helped. As a result, the early movers, mostly investors, have been followed by the end-users. However, for all the talk of premiumisation, the market still depends on the mid-income buyer. And yet, capital, both financial and managerial, continues to flow disproportionately into the upper tiers. It is where margins are cleaner, inventory cycles shorter, and brand positioning sharper,” said Mohit Gawri, VP, Rise Infraventures Limited.

“There is a subtle shift even in the luxury segment. The earlier luxury buyer, status-conscious, location-fixated, has been replaced by someone far more evaluative. The conversation has moved from pin codes to product, reflecting a deeper change in buyer priorities. It is less about owning a home and more about owning a certain quality of living. That is where developers are now competing,” said Ashok Singh Jaunapuria, MD & CEO, SS Group.

In Mumbai, the gravitational pull of established luxury micro-markets remains intact, but pricing has reached a point where the demand is incremental and selective. In contrast, Gurugram has been growing. JLL’s estimates suggest that Rs. 10 crore-plus home sales in the city crossed Rs. 24,000 crore in 2025, putting it ahead of Mumbai in that bracket. Bangalore and Hyderabad are also witnessing significant growth.

“The premiumisation we are seeing is not restricted to metros anymore. In markets like Mohali, there is a growing segment of buyers willing to invest in better-designed, higher-value homes, provided the ecosystem, schools, healthcare, and connectivity keep pace. What is also becoming evident is that these buyers are not benchmarking locally anymore; they are comparing product quality, amenities, and planning standards with developments in larger cities, which is gradually raising the bar for developers operating in Tier 2 markets,” said Udit Jain, Director, One Group who brings extensive experience in operating across both Tier 1 and Tier 2 real estate markets.

Karan Malik, Regional Director, Realistic Realtors, says, “There is also a behavioural layer here that rarely makes it into reports. In the last few years, the definition of “adequate space” has been permanently altered. A 3BHK is no longer a default upgrade; it is often a compromise. Projects all over the country are reporting stronger traction for larger configurations. The expectation levels have risen, and buyers are comparing products across cities, not just within them.”

Somewhere in all this, the market has become quieter, even as it has grown larger. The market, for now, seems comfortable letting this imbalance persist. Demand is concentrating at the top even as the base remains broader but less decisive. Whether this is a phase or a longer reordering is still unclear. But for the moment, the centre of gravity has shifted, and it does not appear in a hurry to move back.

Ghaziabad has witnessed a significant milestone in its real estate journey as Saya Gold Avenue, the tallest residential development in the city, has been completely sold out.

Saya Gold Avenue

Located in the prime neighbourhood of Indirapuram, the project has emerged as a landmark development, with the final few units being sold at prices exceeding Rs. 15,000 per square foot, reflecting strong buyer confidence and premium positioning in the market.

Developed as a large-scale residential community, Saya Gold Avenue comprises 1620 units across 8 towers, each rising up to 39 storeys, making it one of the most prominent high-rise developments in the region. The project offers a mix of 2BHK, 3BHK, 4BHK apartments and penthouses, catering to a wide spectrum of homebuyers, including end-users and investors. Adding to its premium appeal is an expansive 80,000 sq. ft. clubhouse and a host of modern lifestyle amenities including Olympic size swimming pool, world class gymnasium etc, designed to offer a holistic living experience.

Strategically located at the heart of Indirapuram with excellent connectivity to major roads and highways, the project has been particularly preferred by senior government officials, journalists, business leaders, CEOs, and working professionals, further enhancing its status as a sought-after residential address.

The strong sales performance of Saya Gold Avenue also reflects the growing demand for premium and high-rise living in Indirapuram and the larger Ghaziabad region. Over the past few years, Indirapuram has evolved into a well-established residential hub with robust social infrastructure, seamless connectivity to Delhi and Noida, and a vibrant ecosystem of schools, hospitals, and commercial centres. Ghaziabad, too, has seen a steady rise in demand, driven by improved connectivity, infrastructure upgrades, and relatively competitive pricing compared to other NCR markets, making it an attractive destination for both end-users and investors.

Commenting on the development, Mr. Vikas Bhasin, Managing Director, Saya Group, said, “The complete sell-out of Saya Gold Avenue is a testament to the strong demand for quality developments in emerging micro-markets like Indirapuram and Ghaziabad. Today’s homebuyers are increasingly looking for well-designed, high-rise communities with modern amenities, strong connectivity, and a premium living experience. The response to this project, especially the price appreciation to over Rs. 15,000 per sq. ft., reflects the growing maturity of the Ghaziabad real estate market and the confidence that buyers have in such developments.”

The success of Saya Gold Avenue highlights the ongoing transformation of Ghaziabad into a key residential destination within NCR, with premium developments setting new benchmarks in design, scale, and pricing.

About Saya Group

Saya Group, established over 25 years ago, is a trailblazer in the real estate industry with a strong presence in the Delhi NCR region. Known for pioneering luxury residential and commercial developments, Saya Group began with the development of low-rise floors and luxury villas, and soon expanded into high-rise luxury homes and commercial projects.

Saya Group a portfolio of over 4.99 Lacs Sq. Mtr. of luxurious residential spaces and innovative commercial projects. This includes 2.20 Lacs Sq.

Representational image of business suite

Strategically located along the Yamuna Expressway, the airport will significantly enhance connectivity between Delhi-NCR and key domestic as well as international destinations. Its proximity to major infrastructure projects, including the upcoming Film City, Olympic City, logistics hubs, and industrial zones, is expected to generate large-scale employment and drive sustained demand for real estate in the region.

ACE Group has been at the forefront of this transformation, with a diverse portfolio of developments aligned with the corridor’s rapid evolution. Having already delivered reputed projects across Noida and Greater Noida, the Group is now strengthening its presence along the Yamuna Expressway, where it is currently developing approximately 10.8 million sq. ft. of thoughtfully planned spaces. These projects are designed to meet the rising demand for integrated environments that seamlessly combine lifestyle, business, and hospitality.
 

In the commercial segment, Ace YXP stands out as a landmark retail and entertainment destination in the making. Conceptualized as a high-street commercial mall, it is designed to offer an immersive shopping and leisure experience. The project is set to become operational this year, with several leading brands already signed up, positioning it as a key social and commercial hub for the region. The company is also advancing Ace Terra, an under-construction premium residential development along the Yamuna Expressway. Envisioned to offer a refined living experience, the project brings together contemporary architecture, thoughtfully designed residences, and lush green surroundings.

Further reinforcing its growing footprint, the company has successfully delivered expansive, integrated townships designed to offer a holistic and future-ready lifestyle. Spanning over 100 acres, one township seamlessly blends modern infrastructure with thoughtful urban planning, bringing together a diverse portfolio of developments. The plotted development, Ace Acreville, has already been completed, while Ace Verde features intelligently designed contemporary apartments, and Ace Hive presents a curated collection of business suites set to be professionally managed by Sarovar Hotels—introducing a distinctive hospitality-led dimension to the commercial ecosystem.

Complementing this is a 68-acre integrated township where the plotted development, Ace Estate, stands completed, alongside Ace Edit, a dynamic commercial hub tailored for a new-age, experience-driven workforce. The development also includes luxury studio suites, enabling a seamless live-work lifestyle within a vibrant, self-sustained environment.

Strategically located in proximity to landmark developments such as the Buddh International Circuit and the new Noida International Airport. With a strong emphasis on refined design, expansive green landscapes, and long-term value creation, they offer a compelling proposition for both end-users and investors alike.

What sets ACE Group apart is its commitment to creating developments that are in sync with the region’s infrastructure growth. In a relatively short span of 15 years, the Group has already delivered approximately 18 million sq. ft. of development, with an additional 32+ million sq. ft. currently under construction.

As the Yamuna Expressway corridor evolves into a dynamic urban destination, ACE Group continues to play a pivotal role in shaping its landscape. With a focus on quality, innovation, and integrated development, the company remains committed to delivering spaces that reflect the aspirations of a rapidly growing region and contribute to its long-term success.

Luxury living takes root in emerging cities, where modern residences, green spaces, and community-driven design reflect evolving aspirations and local prosperity

The fulcrum has shifted from salary-driven wealth to enterprise-driven prosperity, with family-owned businesses reaching unprecedented heights, startup success achieving significant exits, and SME and industrial clusters increasing their economic footprint in non-metro regions. No longer confined to a handful of urban centers, wealth in India is now far more dispersed geographically. This change in the distribution of wealth is having a significant impact not just on wealth itself but also on consumption. Today, there is a growing trend towards wealth being spent in the place in which it is created. This is in stark contrast to metros, where there may be a portfolio approach to wealth.

According to Anarock, premium and luxury homes now account for a significantly higher share of new residential launches in several tier 2 cities, showcasing how developers’ confidence in sustained end-user demand in these markets. The contours of wealth creation in these parts are also shifting with enterprise-led growth steadily overtaking traditional salary-driven accumulation. Across Tier 2 cities, family-run businesses are scaling with renewed ambition, startup ecosystems are unlocking meaningful value through exits, and SME as well as industrial clusters are deepening their economic influence.

Besides, a defining aspect of this shift is the clear dominance of the end user. In Tier 2 cities, demand is led by business families upgrading primary homes, next-generation buyers raising lifestyle benchmarks, and NRIs returning with global exposure yet strong local ties. Unlike metros, where luxury often aligns with investment logic and second homes, here it is rooted in end use. The focus is on high-conviction homeownership: consumption-backed, deeply personal, and centred on creating residences that serve as both lifestyle upgrades and long-term legacy assets.

Umang Jindal, CEO, Homeland Group, said, “In markets like Mohali and Chandigarh, we are witnessing how luxury is being defined and consumed. The demand is not being driven by external capital but by deeply rooted, local wealth. Entrepreneurs, industrialists, and globally exposed professionals are choosing to elevate their living standards without relocating. What is particularly noteworthy is the clarity of intent among buyers; they are not experimenting with luxury; they are committing to it. This is translating into a preference for expansive layouts, gated villa communities, and low-density developments that offer both privacy and permanence. It reflects a market that is maturing with quiet confidence.”

Preksha Singh, CEO, Agrasheel Infratech, added, “In cities like Lucknow, the premium housing market is evolving in a way that feels both organic and inevitable. As the city’s economic base strengthens and new-age businesses take root, we are seeing a generation of buyers that is far more design-aware and lifestyle-conscious than before. Luxury here is no longer about scale alone, but about refinement, detailing, and a sense of arrival within one’s own city. There is also a strong emotional dimension at play, where families are choosing to build legacy homes rather than migrate. This is creating sustained, end-user-driven demand that is far more stable and deeply anchored.”

Ashwinder R. Singh, Chairman, CII Real Estate Committee; Vice Chairman, BCD Group; Advisor, NAR-India said, “This is not a shift of luxury. It is a shift of confidence. For the first time, the Indian homebuyer is choosing not to migrate, but to upgrade where he already lives. Tier 2 cities are no longer catching up with metros; they are developing their own consumption identity. What defines luxury here is not price, it is intent. Larger homes, better design, and institutional-grade developments are now being demanded in markets that were once driven purely by necessity. This is not spillover demand. It is native aspiration, powered by local wealth creation, infrastructure, and digital exposure. For developers, the implication is clear: this is not a scale play, it is a credibility test. Because in this cycle, trust will travel faster than brand.”

Moreover, land is emerging as a key component of the Tier 2 growth story, particularly in peripheral pockets where initial growth is resulting in tangible price appreciation. Developers are entering these markets from a long-term perspective, recognizing land as a play on future growth rather than just a component of inventory. Much of this activity is unfolding alongside new infrastructure, but the demand itself isn’t being created by these developments. It already exists, rooted in local ambition and rising affluence. What infrastructure does is bring that confidence to the surface, giving it direction and legitimacy rather than driving it from scratch.

Kushagr Ansal, Director, Ansal Housing, said, “Across Tier 2 cities, the shift towards luxury housing is not an isolated phenomenon but part of a broader structural evolution. As economic activity becomes more distributed, so does aspiration. What we are observing is a move away from speculative real estate cycles towards consumption-led growth, where buyers are investing in homes they intend to live in and hold over generations. Infrastructure development is certainly accelerating this transition, but the underlying driver is rising affluence and confidence within these cities. For developers, this calls for a more nuanced approach that prioritises quality, community, and long-term value creation over scale.”

Harvinder Singh Sikka, Chairman, Sikka Group, said, “In North India, Dehradun presents a unique intersection of natural appeal and evolving urban aspiration, which is increasingly reflected in its housing choices. Buyers here are seeking more than just a residence; they are looking for a lifestyle that blends openness, wellness, and exclusivity. This has led to a growing preference for boutique luxury developments and villa formats that offer a sense of retreat without disconnecting from the city. Interestingly, a significant portion of this demand is coming from within the region itself, including business families and returning professionals. It signals a shift where luxury is being internalized rather than imported.”

What is unfolding across Tier 2 cities is less a phase and more a fundamental rebalancing of India’s housing narrative. Luxury housing is becoming more evenly anchored, shaped by multiple cities with their own economic and cultural momentum. In that sense, this is not simply decentralisation, but a repositioning of priorities.

About BPTP

Strategically located in Goregaon West, the project is spread across 1.09 acres and benefits from strong connectivity, including proximity to Arkade Bangur Nagar metro station, an important driver of residential demand in Mumbai’s western suburbs.

Positioned in the premium 2 and 3 BHK segment, christened Arkade Evoke, reinforces the developer’s focus on creating well connected, lifestyle-led housing that caters to discerning urban homebuyers.

Designed to reflect evolving buyer preferences, the development features thoughtfully planned residences with balconies, particularly in the 3 BHK configurations. The inclusion of private outdoor spaces, surface parking and astute planning that allows for cross ventilation, addresses a growing demand among luxury homebuyers for enhanced liveability and openness, an attribute that has gained increasing prominence in Mumbai’s premium housing landscape.

Commenting on the launch, Mr. Amit Jain, CMD, Arkade developers limited said, “The response has been overwhelming, even in these challenging market conditions. Customers have clearly understood the brand and product value, marking the launch of Arkade Evoke as a grand success in this micro-market. This project further reflects our strategy of strengthening our presence in well-established residential micro-markets, where connectivity, infrastructure, and sustained end-user demand converge.

The scheme is subject to requisite regulatory and statutory approvals, including NCLT, SEBI, stock exchanges, shareholders, and creditors, and carries an appointed date of April 1, 2026.

The amalgamation formalises a model that has already been operating in an integrated manner across customers, supply chains, and execution. By linking procurement, development, and delivery within a unified framework, the integrated model enables deeper engagement with customers along with higher value capture per engagement. It also removes structural complexity associated with separate legal entities, placing both businesses on a single balance sheet and enabling more streamlined decision-making across the organisation. 

Sharing how this development changes operations at ARIS, Ronak Morbia, Chairman & Managing Director, Arisinfra Solutions Ltd said, “Our technology stack now operates with direct visibility across both supply and execution, allowing data from project-level activity to inform demand forecasting, pricing decisions, and credit control with greater precision. At the same time, the Developer-as-a-Service business is able to draw more seamlessly on the supply network to manage costs and timelines. This creates a closed-loop system where each project strengthens the underlying intelligence of the platform, enabling more consistent and efficient outcomes across procurement and on-ground delivery.”

The shift also enables closer engagement with developers, infrastructure clients, and vendor partners through a single interface, positioning the company as a single accountable partner across the value chain. Developers and landowners benefit from a more coordinated approach across capital structuring, procurement, execution, and sales, reducing complexity and improving timelines. Infrastructure clients gain from more consistent supply, clearer pricing, and deeper project-level engagement. Vendor partners can see stronger demand visibility, improved capacity utilisation, and more predictable order flows across projects.

Post-merger, ARIS will consolidate 100% of ArisUnitern’s earnings, eliminating non-controlling interest and improving return ratios.

Shedding light on the rationale behind the merger, Navin Dhanuka, Director, ArisUnitern RE Solutions Pvt. Ltd said, “ArisUnitern’s growth over the past three years gives us strong confidence in this model. Revenue has scaled from INR 130 million in FY23 to INR 432 million in FY25, with INR 517 million recorded in the first nine months of FY26 and a profit before tax of INR 329 million. This represents more than threefold growth over the period and reflects strong margin quality, indicating that the model has held up across cycles and can scale with discipline.

Having both sides of the business within one structure changes how we engage across projects. Each mandate can now extend across a wider set of services, increasing value per project while improving how work is planned and delivered. With a network of over 3,000 customers and 2,000 vendors, we are seeing strong network effects across projects and geographies. The asset-light nature of the business positions us to scale this platform up to 10x with limited incremental capital, while the interaction between execution mandates and supply relationships creates a compounding cycle of demand across the system, opening up opportunities across new categories and markets.”

Additionally, the restructuring simplifies internal structures by removing duplication across entities and bringing governance under a single framework. This is expected to improve working capital management and enable faster, more coordinated decision-making across the business. The company operates at a national level, supported by a growing services portfolio that can expand further on the same underlying infrastructure. 

Over time, ARIS aims to establish itself as an operating layer for construction in India, organising a fragmented ecosystem through a combination of supply, services, and technology. As the business deepens its capabilities, the focus will remain on expanding the network, enhancing execution capacity, and building AI-led intelligence across systems, while retaining an asset-light model with growth largely self-funded through internal accruals.

Puravankara’s first Mumbai redevelopment project crosses Rs. 800 crores, reflecting strong buyer trust

The strong response signals a clear and structural shift in homebuyer preference towards design-led and wellness-centric residences—where execution certainty, transparency, and long-term asset value are paramount.

At Purva Estrella, premium 2, 3, and 4 BHK residences with ticket sizes ranging between Rs. 3 crore and Rs. 7 crore, in line with prevailing benchmarks for high-quality redevelopment-led housing in Mumbai. The strong absorption reflects a decisive evolution in buyer behaviour, with increasing emphasis on developer credibility, proven execution capabilities, and future value appreciation.

Building on a legacy of more than five decades, Puravankara has significantly expanded its portfolio through premium redevelopment projects in Mumbai. During 9MFY26, Puravankara continued to strengthen its development pipeline, adding over 12.7 million sq. ft. of potential developable area with an estimated gross development value of approximately Rs. 13,900 crore across key markets, including Bengaluru and Mumbai.

Looking ahead, the company is set to further strengthen its Mumbai presence with upcoming launches in Thane, Malabar Hill, Breach Candy, Pali Hill, and Chembur, with approvals already received for Thane, Pali Hill, and Breach Candy. In a sector historically challenged by fragmented delivery, Puravankara’s legacy of trust, institutional processes, and consistent track record of timely execution are emerging as key differentiators—positioning it as a preferred real estate brand for both societies and discerning homebuyers.

From subtle sophistication to curated expression - luxury homes in 2026 are designed not just to impress, but to reflect identity, elevate experience, and redefine everyday living

Earlier, luxury had an entirely different connotation, and the wealthy sought to showcase themselves. It was not minimalism in the classical sense; rather, it was a calibrated understatement, which has been labelled as “quiet luxury.”

Shyamrup Roy Choudhury, Founder and Managing Director, Aura World, said, “The luxury buyer we are engaging today is far more decisive and far less willing to dilute their vision. They are deeply involved in the decision-making process — from layout planning and material selection to design detailing — because they want their home to mirror their personality and aspirations. Earlier, there was a clear preference for homes that reflected discretion, understated design, neutral palettes, and an almost invisible expression of wealth. That has changed. Today, buyers are asking for curated interiors and amenities that align with their lifestyle — whether that means private wellness spaces, entertainment zones, or smart home integrations. They are not just evaluating aesthetics but also long-term comfort, functionality, and how the space enhances everyday living for their family."

What is now emerging is not loudness in the conventional sense, but discernment. Private elevators opening into personal foyers are no longer indulgences; they are expectations in certain brackets. Double-height living areas are less about volume and more about stagecraft. Sky decks, once peripheral, are increasingly central to how projects are conceived, not appended later as an amenity.

Sehaj Chawla, Managing Director, TREVOC Group, said, “The change in buyer preference is also altering how projects are structured. We are seeing stronger demand for low-density complexes where privacy is preserved, but within that, the homes themselves are far more expressive. Today, buyers are also prioritising location above all, seeking well-connected and strategically placed developments that enhance convenience and long-term value. They are willing to invest in larger layouts, dedicated wellness infrastructure, and technology-enabled living. The emphasis is on control over space, services, and overall experience. In that sense, luxury is becoming less about scale alone and more about how intelligently that scale is used."

Saurab Saharan, Group Managing Director, HCBS Developments, added, "In Gurugram, we are witnessing this transition play out very clearly. A couple of years ago, the conversation was still anchored around ticket size, connectivity, and future appreciation. Today, those factors are almost taken for granted. What buyers are really evaluating is how a home feels the moment they step into it, the arrival experience, the privacy gradient, the way natural light is handled, and even how seamlessly services are integrated."

Kapil Chugh, VP, Sales at Rise Infraventures Limited, said, “The definition of luxury in 2026 has moved beyond both over display and quiet restraint to become far more intentional in how it is expressed. In our view, what stands out is the decisiveness of today’s buyer; they are globally aware, sharply discerning, and far less willing to compromise on how a space aligns with their lifestyle. This is, in turn, compelling developers to move past conventional residential formats and think in terms of integrated, experience-led environments. Homes are now being evaluated against hospitality-grade benchmarks, but with a deeper layer of personalisation.”

Branded residences are a natural outcome of this convergence. A collaboration with a known design house or a global brand does more than elevate positioning; it compresses the signalling process. One does not need to explain taste if it is already implied.

Ashwani Kumar, Pyramid Infratech, said, “There is definitely a stronger emotional component in purchase decisions today. Apart from evaluating location or return potential, buyers are evaluating how a home aligns with their identity and lifestyle. This naturally leads to more customised and expressive spaces. At the same time, we cannot ignore that these are still high-value assets. The challenge for developers is to balance individuality with a certain universality, so that while a home feels bespoke, it does not become too niche for the broader market.”

Sparsh Kaul, Vice President - Marketing, Orris Group, said, “Luxury is changing. It’s no longer just about sophistication; it’s about personal experiences and spaces that reflect who we are. People value beauty, wellness, and smart technology that makes life easier. They want homes that feel special today and remain timeless tomorrow. True luxury balances individuality with lasting elegance.”

Developers, for their part, are adjusting. Larger unit sizes are returning, but with more complex internal zoning. Clubhouses are evolving into experiential hubs rather than amenity clusters. Themed environments are being reinterpreted with more discipline. Perhaps the most telling shift is in how amenities are being discussed. The earlier vocabulary, gym, pool, and clubhouse, feels insufficient now. Conversations revolve around recovery zones, bio-hacking suites, private work lounges, and concierge layers that blur into hospitality.

Spread across 33 acres at the foothills of the Aravalli range, the development comprises 2,540 thoughtfully designed low-rise residences, spanning across 35.1 Lac sq. ft. with each tower configured to house only four apartments, ensuring enhanced privacy and exclusivity.
 

The project entails an estimated development cost of Rs. 1520 crore, with a projected revenue realisation of Rs. 4,000 crore, contributing significantly to M3M India’s residential topline in Gurugram. The development has witnessed strong demand from both end-users and investors since its launch, with a current ticket size of Rs. 1.8 crore onwards.
 

Commenting on the development, Robin Mangla, President, M3M India, said, "The commencement of possession at M3M Antalya Hills reflects our continued focus on timely delivery and our commitment to developing differentiated residential formats. Low-rise developments in well-connected locations are witnessing sustained demand, and this project aligns with evolving homebuyer preferences."
 

Offering 2.5 and 3.5 BHK residences, the project is inspired by Mediterranean-style architecture and is designed around open green spaces, pedestrian-friendly layouts, and community-centric planning.
 

The development offers a well-rounded lifestyle with a clubhouse featuring social and leisure spaces, along with wellness amenities such as a gym, spa, private terraces, and swimming pool. Residents also have access to sports facilities, landscaped gardens, and dedicated areas for children and senior citizens. Designed as a secure gated community, it is supported by round-the-clock surveillance and essential conveniences, complemented by premium in-home features.
 

Strategically located in Sector 79, the project offers seamless connectivity to NH-48 and Southern Peripheral Road (SPR), along with proximity to key industrial and commercial hubs. While road connectivity is strong, public transport options are still developing, with HUDA City Centre being the nearest major metro station. The micro-market continues to witness infrastructure-led growth, positioning it as a key residential destination in Gurugram.
 

M3M India continues to expand its residential footprint across emerging corridors in Gurugram, with a strong emphasis on scale, design, and execution.

 CRC Engages CBRE for Facility Management at Office‑Led Commercial Development in Noida

Spanning approximately 2.4 million sq. ft., CRC The Flagship has been conceived as a campus style, next generation IT/ITES project, where Grade A+ office spaces anchor the development and are supported by curated retail, food and beverage offerings, and hospitality infrastructure. The project is currently in its final stages of construction and is expected to be delivered in the 3rd quarter of this year, positioning it to address near term enterprise demand along the Noida Expressway corridor.

The development has been master planned by Benoy, UK, with architectural inputs from RSP and Vastunidhi Architects, and supported by specialist consultants across structure, MEP services, façade and lighting, traffic and parking, green building compliance, and security and risk management. The planning framework emphasises efficient office layouts, clear circulation, walkability, and long term operational resilience.

Under its mandate, CBRE will supervise end to end facility management services, covering operations and maintenance, sustainability management, technology enabled building systems, and predictive maintenance frameworks. The scope spans office towers, shared amenities, retail areas, hospitality components, and public spaces, with a focus on ensuring consistent service delivery, asset performance, and occupier experience across the campus.

Office infrastructure at CRC The Flagship has been designed to support high intensity corporate use. Each office tower features 10 high speed elevators, supported by destination controlled vertical transportation systems to manage peak hour movement efficiently. The campus also incorporates dedicated special driveways, segregated vehicular circulation for offices, retail, and services, and premium multi height lobbies, reinforcing an institutional arrival experience.

The project is IGBC Platinum pre certified and integrates climate responsive architecture, high performance façade glazing, centralised air conditioning with air quality monitoring, EV ready parking infrastructure, and a Building Management System (BMS) to optimise energy efficiency and indoor environmental quality. In addition, CRC has undertaken developer led enhancement of the adjoining green belt, contributing to improved micro climate and environmental quality.

Commenting on the engagement, Salil Kumar, Director-Marketing & Business Management -CRC Group, said, "The company was pleased to bring CBRE on board as the project nears completion."

“We welcome CBRE into the CRC Group ecosystem and place strong trust in their proven commitments and service delivery capabilities. As CRC The Flagship moves into its operational phase, we look forward to delivering a best in class workplace experience with CBRE, aligned with the expectations of global IT/ITES and enterprise occupiers,” he said.

With its scale, infrastructure depth, and location along the Noida Expressway, CRC The Flagship is being positioned as a future ready office destination aligned with enterprise occupier expectations in the NCR market.

KN Sekar | Ambattur | For Ambattur | A Leader With Purpose

Over the past few years, Ambattur has witnessed a series of coordinated developments spanning infrastructure, environmental sustainability, social welfare, and long-term planning. What sets this transformation apart is not merely the scale of projects executed but the way these initiatives collectively enhance the quality of life for residents.

One of the most visible aspects of this transformation is the revival of public spaces. Parks such as MMM Park, Asif Colony Park, Mangal Lake Park, and Mugappair Park have been upgraded to provide cleaner, safer, and more accessible environments for recreation. In rapidly urbanizing regions, such spaces are often neglected or encroached upon. Their restoration reflects a governance approach that prioritizes community well-being alongside infrastructure growth.

Environmental sustainability has also been a key focus area. A notable initiative includes the conversion of a garbage dumping yard in Kallikuppam into a functional public park, signaling a shift from reactive waste management to proactive urban renewal. Additionally, the implementation of a rainwater management system linking Ambattur Lake with Korattur Lake demonstrates a forward-thinking approach to water conservation, an essential need for a city like Chennai, which frequently faces water scarcity.

At the core of Ambattur’s development lies systematic infrastructure improvement. Road networks have been enhanced through planned execution rather than temporary fixes. The construction of the SIDCO to Aavin Road stretch following proper soil testing highlights a focus on durability and long-term usability. Key roads, including Kachinapakkam Road, Karukku Road, and the Industrial Estate Bus Stand to Mugappair West stretch, have been widened to ease congestion and improve connectivity.

Critical junctions, such as the Ambattur Estate Road intersection, have been expanded to address traffic bottlenecks, while the relocation of electric poles along Chozhapuram Road has facilitated efficient road widening. These seemingly small but crucial interventions reflect the level of detail involved in effective urban planning.

Encroachment removal has been another significant milestone in Ambattur’s transformation. While often considered a sensitive issue, addressing encroachments is essential for improving mobility and public access. Key areas, including Korattur Signal, Padi Market, and major connecting roads, have undergone systematic clearance. The redevelopment of the Ambattur Uzhavar Sandhai has improved accessibility for both vendors and consumers, while the restructuring of the Ambattur O.T. Bus Stand into an organized depot has strengthened public transportation infrastructure.

Importantly, socially conscious policies have complemented these enforcement measures. The decision to abolish tax collection from roadside vendors along the Ambattur, Padi stretch reflects a balanced approach that supports livelihoods while enhancing public infrastructure. This alignment between economic inclusion and urban order is critical in sustaining long-term development.

Strategic bridge upgrades and construction have further improved connectivity across regions. The enhancement of the Padikuppam Road bridge and the development of a new bridge on Water Canal Road have strengthened links between key localities such as Villivakkam and Anna Nagar. Meanwhile, larger infrastructure efforts, including the Karukku flyover developed with the Union Railway Ministry, highlight how important intergovernmental collaboration is for achieving impactful outcomes.

Future-focused planning continues to drive Ambattur’s growth trajectory. Proposed initiatives such as the Ambattur subway, underground drainage systems, Metro Water supply expansion, and the Korattur Agaram subway support infrastructure indicate a long-term vision aligned with evolving urban needs.

Beyond physical infrastructure, Ambattur has also made notable progress in strengthening social infrastructure. The establishment of a primary health center in Padi has improved access to essential healthcare services, particularly for underserved communities. The upgradation of the maternity hospital in Venkadapuram further enhances maternal and child healthcare, contributing to broader social development goals.

Education has also seen meaningful improvements, with several schools upgraded to include higher secondary levels. This enables students to continue their education within their locality, reducing dropout rates and supporting long-term community growth.

Additional initiatives, including the expansion of Ambattur Market, the development of parks and play areas in the ICF Colony, and improved road connectivity within residential zones, contribute to a more integrated and accessible urban environment.

What emerges from these combined efforts is a comprehensive model of governance that addresses multiple dimensions of urban life simultaneously. Ambattur’s development demonstrates that impactful transformation does not always rely on large, high-visibility projects. Instead, it is driven by sustained, coordinated actions grounded in local needs and priorities.

Equally important is the visibility of these improvements. When citizens experience smoother roads, cleaner public spaces, improved healthcare access, and better connectivity, it strengthens trust in governance systems. This trust becomes a foundation for continued progress and civic engagement.

While challenges associated with rapid urbanization remain, including pressure on infrastructure and resources, Ambattur’s trajectory reflects a clear and positive direction. Its transformation highlights the importance of proactive, inclusive, and consistent governance in shaping sustainable urban growth.

As Indian cities continue to expand, Ambattur stands out as a practical example of how localized interventions, when executed effectively, can create meaningful and lasting impact. It reinforces a critical insight: true development is not defined by scale alone but by how deeply it improves everyday life.

To mitigate the prevailing severe heat and ensure public welfare, tree-planting initiatives are currently underway in key areas such as Ambattur, Mogappair, and Avadi. Furthermore, the planting of over 5,000 saplings across all areas within the Ambattur Assembly constituency is set to commence shortly.

BIG FM Launches Realty Vertical, Targets Rs. 1,200 Cr with Debut Project in Lucknow

The company is targeting a revenue of Rs. 1,200 crore from the project and has outlined an ambitious roadmap to scale up to Rs. 4,000 crore with their upcoming projects over the next three years.

The announcement was made at a large-scale event held at The Centrum, Lucknow, which saw participation from 500+ channel partners and key stakeholders from the regional real estate ecosystem. The event signalled the arrival of a national, media-powered real estate brand in a market that is rapidly evolving. The stakeholders welcomed the idea of a professionally driven, media-led real estate ecosystem that could elevate standards across the region.

A key highlight of the evening was the unveiling of Greenlands Global Pvt. Ltd. as the Managing Partner for Big UNIMAXX City, Bahraich, Uttar Pradesh. The firm will lead the project’s overall operations, including sales, marketing, brand strategy, and positioning, bringing in a structured, professional approach to execution and market engagement.

Commenting on the launch, a spokesperson for Big FM Realty said, “We have always believed that strong brands have the power to shape industries. With BIG FM Realty, we are bringing the credibility, reach, and storytelling strength of a national media network into real estate. Lucknow is at a very interesting inflection point today, where infrastructure growth, rising aspirations, and investment appetite are coming together.”

With Big UNIMAXX City, BIG FM Realty aims to redefine how real estate is marketed, positioned, and experienced in emerging cities, leveraging the power of media, brand trust, and strategic execution to create a differentiated offering in the market.

Delhi-NCR is creating a high-growth commercial ecosystem that continues to push prime rentals higher in 2026

According to a recent study by Cushman & Wakefield, retail rents across Delhi-NCR’s prime high streets increased between 2% and 14% through 2025, with Khan Market recording roughly 8% growth and Gurugram’s Galleria Market rising nearly 14% year-on-year. The numbers themselves are modest; the persistence behind them is what the market notices. Besides, office leasing across NCR has regained momentum over the past year, bringing with it a more consistent weekday population back into key urban pockets. In markets like Gurugram and Noida, where large office clusters sit in close proximity to high streets, this return has begun to directly influence retail performance.

Data from JLL indicates that retail leasing across India’s top cities grew 54% in 2025, with Delhi-NCR emerging as one of the dominant markets for new store expansion. Developers know that modern retail space is not merely about area; it is about curation.

Jatin Goel, Executive Director, Omaxe Group, said, “A mall or high street must function as a lifestyle environment, not just a collection of stores. In emerging micro-markets like Faridabad, the retail ecosystem has matured into something far more experience-driven than it was even five years ago. Consumers are no longer coming only to shop; they are coming to spend time. Projects that integrate experiential shopping, open promenades and event-driven retail tend to sustain stronger footfall. That, in turn, allows retailers to justify higher rentals because the environment supports longer consumer engagement."

At a broader level, this momentum is visible across India. CBRE estimates that India recorded nearly 8.9 million sq ft of retail leasing in 2025, one of the highest absorption levels in recent years.

Arjun Gehlot, Director, Ambience Malls, said, “Retail has become far more strategic. Brands now evaluate the ecosystem around a retail project, nearby offices, residential communities, and transit connectivity. When those factors align, rentals tend to rise naturally because retailers are investing in long-term brand positioning rather than short-term store economics."

Old Gurgaon illustrates the point rather neatly. For years, it was considered a legacy retail zone, stable but unremarkable. Now, with steady residential density and office catchments nearby, the area has begun attracting a different retail mix. Restaurants stay open later. Apparel brands test new formats. Weekends feel crowded again.

Mitul Jain, Managing Director, SPJ Group, said, “At first glance, rising retail rents appear like a straightforward demand story. But the deeper shift is that organised retail environments are becoming fewer and more specialised. When retailers find a location that works, with the right catchment and dwell time, they hold onto it. That behaviour tightens supply in ways that statistics sometimes fail to capture.”

Connaught Place still feels fully saturated. Khan Market remains impossibly expensive. But other pockets, parts of Noida, certain sectors of Gurugram, are still searching for the right retail chemistry. For developers, this shift is also changing how projects are evaluated.

Harinder Singh Hora, Founder Chairman, Reach Group, said, “In NCR, rental growth is increasingly being driven by the convergence of retail and office demand. While international brands initially secure space in high-visibility retail destinations, their expansion into emerging micro-markets coincides with growing office absorption in these corridors. This dual demand creates a strong ecosystem of working professionals and active consumers, leading to sustained footfall and a steady upward movement in rentals across both prime and secondary locations.”

This shift is even more visible in emerging office-led markets like Noida. Another report, “Noida-Runway for Growth”, from Cushman and Wakefield, showed how Noida has also witnessed a significant 40% increase in investment-grade office assets, attracting multinational corporations and strengthening its dynamic business ecosystem.

Dr. Amish Bhutani, Managing Director, Group 108, said, “As Noida and Greater Noida continue to evolve, what we are witnessing is a strong convergence of Grade-A office and curated retail development, particularly along the Noida Expressway. With MNCs and international brands steadily establishing their presence and infrastructure catalysts, like the Noida International Airport, enhancing regional connectivity, these corridors are emerging as balanced, high-growth commercial ecosystems. This synergy between workplaces and retail is creating sustained, all-day demand, encouraging brands to commit to high-quality spaces early and for the long term, which in turn is supporting both rental resilience and overall market stability.”

Raj Kumar Sisodia, COO, Biigtech, added, “In Noida-Greater Noida, we have observed that retail works best when it is planned alongside strong office ecosystems. The presence of Grade-A office spaces is creating a steady and predictable consumer base, which naturally strengthens retail performance. For us as developers, this integration is important because workplaces bring consistent, weekday-driven footfall, allowing retail environments to remain active through the day. It ultimately leads to more sustainable leasing and better long-term value creation across the project.”

What sits beneath this steady rental movement is a broader commercial recovery that is less immediately visible but equally consequential. The expansion of high-quality office space reflects strong investor confidence and sustained demand from occupiers.

Bhumika Realty Commences Construction of ‘The Icon’ in Faridabad; Performs Bhoomi Pujan Ceremony

The project had earlier secured institutional funding of Rs. 170 crore raised from BGO in partnership with Aditya Birla Sun Life AMC. Over 81,156 sq. ft. of retail space was leased within two months of the launch.

“The Bhoomi Pujan and commencement of construction represent a significant milestone for The Icon. Securing the funding reflects the confidence of the country’s leading institutional lenders, and the fact that over 81,156 sq. ft. was leased in a short span after launch speaks about stakeholders’ confidence both in the project and in the company, as well as in Faridabad’s growth trajectory,” said Uddhav Poddar, CMD, Bhumika Group.

The ceremony, titled “Pragati ka Prarambh,” brought together all the project’s stakeholders. Spread across approximately 5 acres, The Icon forms part of Bhumika Group’s Rs. 700-crore mixed-use development in Faridabad. The project will feature premium retail and entertainment spaces along with 88 low-density 3BHK + study residences, designed to offer an integrated lifestyle environment. A hotel tower with serviced suites is also planned in a later phase of development.

Brands that have already taken space include Apple, Adidas, Levi’s, Raymond, BBQ Company, Looks Salon, Samsung, Vivo, Metro Shoes, Mochi, Park Avenue, ColorPlus, Mufti, Linen Club, The Sleep Company, Bluetokai, Honey & Dough and Geetanjali Salon. Other brands joining the project include Clovia, Intimissimi, Shree, Palmonas, Delsey Paris, Fila, Tossin Pizza, The Chocolate Room, Fredo Bakehouse, Ethera Diamonds and Trends Footwear.

Strategically located on the Delhi–Mathura Road, the project is expected to benefit from improving regional connectivity, including the upcoming Faridabad–Noida–Gurugram (FNG) Expressway and enhanced access to the Noida International Airport in Jewar.

The Delhi–Meerut RRTS is enhancing NCR connectivity, reducing travel time and driving growth in emerging hubs like Duhai and Raj Nagar Extension

The impact of infrastructure development on property markets is not new, but the scale at which connectivity is improving across NCR is creating entirely new growth corridors. The Delhi–Meerut RRTS corridor, India’s first semi-high-speed regional rail system, has significantly reduced travel time between these two cities and towns on the route. Commuters are now able to travel from Meerut to central Delhi in around an hour and from location like Duhai and Raj Nagar in roughly 30–40 minutes, dramatically improving daily connectivity for professionals working in the capital.

Route map of the Delhi–Meerut RRTS corridor, highlighting key stations and emerging growth corridors such as Siddharth Vihar, Duhai and Raj Nagar Extension in NCR

Along with the RRTS, these locations are also benefiting from a strong network of highways and expressways including the Delhi–Meerut Expressway, Eastern Peripheral Expressway, NH-9 and the upcoming rapid urban infrastructure projects. This growing connectivity has made locations such as Raj Nagar Extension, Siddharth Vihar, Duhai increasingly attractive for both end-users and investors seeking value in the NCR housing market.

Rising Demand Driven by Affordability
One of the biggest advantages these locations currently offer is affordability. While the average price of new residential launches in several prime NCR micro-markets such as Gurugram and central Noida has crossed ₹15,000–₹16,000 per square foot in recent years, several projects in Ghaziabad are still available at around ₹9,000–₹11,000 per square foot or in Raj Nagar and Duhai at around ₹6,000–₹8,000 per square foot. This price gap has opened a window of opportunity for first-time homebuyers and middle-income families who wish to stay connected to Delhi without stretching their housing budgets.

Raj Nagar Extension in particular has evolved into one of Ghaziabad’s most active residential clusters over the last decade. With a mix of mid-income and premium developments, the area now hosts thousands of residents and continues to attract new projects. Siddharth Vihar, strategically located near NH-9 and close to Noida, has also gained traction as a well-planned residential zone with improved connectivity to both Delhi and Noida.

Emerging Investor Interest Around Duhai
Beyond the established micro-markets like Raj Nagar extension and Sidharth Vihar, emerging locations such as Duhai are beginning to attract significant investor attention. The presence of an RRTS station in Duhai, combined with its strategic position near the intersection of the Eastern Peripheral Expressway and the Delhi–Meerut corridor, is turning the area into a potential growth hotspot.

Real estate consultants and local brokers note that investors are increasingly exploring these micro-markets because they combine strong future connectivity with comparatively lower land prices. Historically, many of NCR’s successful real estate corridors—from Dwarka Expressway to Noida Expressway—have followed a similar pattern where infrastructure announcements triggered long-term property value appreciation.

Premium Projects Reflect Growing Confidence
The growing confidence of developers in the Ghaziabad market is also reflected in the launch of premium housing projects in the region. Several national and regional developers have already introduced large residential developments in the area, many of which have witnessed strong sales momentum.

Industry stakeholders and experts believe that as connectivity improves further and more infrastructure projects reach completion, Ghaziabad could increasingly emerge as a viable alternative for homebuyers who are priced out of Delhi, Gurugram or central Noida real estate market.

Township Developments on the Horizon
Large township developments are also expected to play a crucial role in shaping the next phase of growth. Integrated townships that combine residential units, commercial spaces, schools and lifestyle amenities are increasingly being planned to cater to the evolving expectations of modern homebuyers.

Commenting on this trend, SAYA Group said the company is planning a major township project in the emerging Duhai region.

“The RRTS and expressway connectivity have given a new lease of life to the Ghaziabad–Meerut corridor. It has also opened up significant opportunities for homebuyers looking for well-connected properties in NCR at a more affordable price point. We have recently secured around 20 acres of land near Duhai in Ghaziabad and are planning to develop a mixed-use township there,” said Vikas Bhasin, Managing Director, Saya Group.

“The project will feature residential units of various configurations, along with commercial spaces and institutional facilities such as schools, creating a self-sustained community. Our aim is to cater to a wide spectrum of homebuyers by offering homes ranging from 1 BHK to 5 BHK with modern amenities while keeping pricing accessible. With the RRTS connectivity and strong road infrastructure, we believe this micro-market has the potential to emerge as one of the most promising residential destinations in NCR,” added Bhasin.

The Next Growth Story of NCR
As infrastructure projects such as the RRTS gets operational and connectivity between Delhi and surrounding cities improves, the real estate map of NCR is gradually being redrawn. Areas that were once considered peripheral are now evolving into well-connected residential hubs.

For homebuyers seeking affordability and connectivity, and for investors looking at long-term appreciation, Raj Nagar Extension, Siddharth Vihar, Duhai and emerging nodes along the RRTS corridor may well represent the next chapter in NCR’s real estate growth story.

Designed to meet global luxury benchmarks, the development will showcase a contemporary all-glass façade, expansive floor-to-ceiling windows, private elevators, and select residences with double-height living spaces. With a total built-up area exceeding 1.2 million sq. ft., the project is positioned to set a new benchmark for branded luxury living in the region. It will be the second Trump-branded residential development in Gurugram, following the success of Trump Towers Gurugram, which has delivered strong capital appreciation and established a benchmark for branded luxury living in the region.

The Trump-branded residential legacy in Gurugram has demonstrated strong long-term value creation for homeowners and investors alike. The first Trump development in the city has witnessed up to 200% appreciation, with residents now actively moving in and experiencing globally benchmarked luxury living. The recently launched Trump Residences has recorded strong buyer demand and price appreciation, with prices rising from Rs. 25,000 per sq. ft. at launch to Rs. 32,000 per sq. ft. within a span of six months, reinforcing sustained market demand and investor confidence. In keeping with its global prestige, home owners of Trump Towers, Delhi NCR will enjoy club hospitality and facility management by Roseate Hotels & Resorts.

Industry projections indicate that buyers at Trump Residences Gurgaon could potentially see an estimated 300% appreciation on their investment by the time of delivery, highlighting the project’s strong value proposition within India’s ultra-luxury residential landscape.

Commenting on the milestone, Surender Kumar Sharma, Chief Construction Officer, Smartworld Developers, said, “Trump Residences Gurgaon represents a significant step in Smartworld’s evolution into globally benchmarked branded developments. With excavation completed and structural work now in progress, we are advancing construction in a phased and strategic manner to deliver a landmark development aligned with international standards.”

It is an address with a legacy of its own, one that we look forward to passing on to future generations.”

Following the successful delivery of its inaugural projects Smartworld Orchard, Smartworld Gems, and Smartworld Orchard Street along with three ongoing developments across Gurugram, Trump Residences Gurgaon marks Smartworld Developers’ seventh development and its strategic entry into the ultra-luxury branded residences segment.

Wellness-centric luxury housing in NCR blends nature, open spaces, and mindful design to create healthier urban communities
 

The surge in demand for wellness homes across NCR is rooted in a decisive shift in buyer psychology. In the years following the pandemic, homebuyers have begun attaching greater value to health safeguards. Supported by changing lifestyle preferences, higher disposable incomes and a focus on health, the wellness homes market continues to grow stronger.
 

Shyamrup Roy Choudhury, Founder and Managing Director, Aura World, said, “In Gurugram, wellness is steadily emerging as the defining pillar of ultra-luxury living. Families are moving beyond decorative opulence and instead prioritising homes that enable cleaner air, deeper relaxation and a more balanced lifestyle. As a result, expansive residences with private landscaped areas, quiet reflection zones, split-level planning and dedicated wellness rooms are setting new standards. The city’s globally exposed and cosmopolitan workforce naturally resonates with this evolution. Today’s buyers are seeking private sanctuaries that blend refined international aesthetics with spaces designed to restore and rejuvenate, underscoring how wellness-oriented living has become the most authentic marker of luxury.”
 

Arjun Gehlot, Director, Ambience Group, added, “Over the last few years, we have seen a visible shift in what luxury means. Earlier, it was about scale and finishes. Today, it is about how a space makes you feel when you wake up in it every morning. In Gurugram, especially along premium corridors like Dwarka Expressway, buyers are seeking projects with cross-ventilation, green views, walkability, and noise insulation. Wellness is no longer an add-on clubhouse feature; it is being designed into the core blueprint of residences. Thus, the real transformation is psychological. For us, wellness living is about creating environments that reduce stress and quietly enhance everyday life.”
 

In real estate parlance, “wellness homes” are defined beyond just marble floors, high ceilings or premium finishes. These homes are engineered to support physical health, mental equilibrium and environmental well-being.
 

Ashok Singh Jaunapuria, MD & CEO, SS Group, said, “Buyers are far more informed today; they ask specific questions about ventilation standards, landscaped area ratios and material specifications. As developers, this requires us to think beyond aesthetics and incorporate design strategies that genuinely enhance comfort and well-being. From larger balconies and low-density layouts to integrated fitness and recreation infrastructure, the emphasis is on creating self-sustained communities. We believe that in Gurugram’s next growth cycle, projects that prioritise wellness fundamentals will command stronger buyer confidence and sustained demand.”
 

For buyers in NCR, where pollution and congestion are daily realities, wellness homes represent a fundamental rethinking of how a home contributes to quality of life. At their core are features that matter in everyday living: advanced air filtration systems that reduce indoor pollutants, design elements that maximise daylight and cross-ventilation, dedicated zones for fitness and relaxation, and landscaped open spaces that invite movement and calm.
 

Viren Mehta, Founder & Director, ElitePro says, “As urban life becomes increasingly demanding, buyers are seeking residences that allow them to breathe cleaner air, live more mindfully and maintain a healthier balance. In response, developers are moving beyond surface-level certifications to embed natural light, advanced air purification, biophilic elements, low-VOC materials and curated community wellness spaces into the design framework. While these homes may command a 10–30% premium, families view it as a long-term investment in health, reduced future costs and sustained property appreciation. Over the coming decade, wellness communities are set to transform housing from a transactional purchase into a more immersive living experience.”
 

The GWI report highlights that the wellness real estate has emerged as a significant global asset class with projections indicating a multi-trillion-dollar trajectory by 2035. This global momentum is increasingly finding a local expression in NCR’s emerging corridors. In Gurugram, stretches such as Golf Course Extension Road and the newer sectors along the Southern Peripheral Road are witnessing projects that foreground landscaped podiums, low-density planning and integrated green zones. Greater Noida West, with its relatively wider roads and township-style layouts, has become a fertile ground for wellness-led developments that combine affordability with breathing space.
 

Salil Kumar, Director- Marketing and Business Management, CRC Group, says, “In markets like Noida and Greater Noida, the wellness housing narrative is closely linked to planning and openness. These micro-markets offer the advantage of wider roads, lower-density pockets, and integrated township development, which makes wellness-led planning more scalable. Buyers here are aspirational but also practical; they want long-term value. Wellness features such as air purification systems, green landscaping, and dedicated fitness infrastructure are increasingly influencing buying decisions. Investors are also recognising that healthier environments translate into stronger, more resilient demand cycles. We believe wellness will soon move from being a premium differentiator to becoming a baseline expectation in NCR housing.”
 

Goldi Arora, Co-founder & Managing Director of Property Master, says, “Across NCR, we are witnessing wellness shift from being a niche luxury proposition to a serious decision-making parameter. Buyers today evaluate projects not only on price appreciation potential but also on liveability metrics. What is particularly interesting is that this demand cuts across segments, from upper mid-income to premium. Investors, too, are recognising that healthier environments create stronger tenant retention and long-term value stability.”
 

Therefore, the question is no longer whether wellness will influence NCR’s housing market, but how deeply it will become embedded in its baseline standards. Over time, policy frameworks, municipal guidelines and even housing finance models could begin incentivising healthier building practices.

Why MRG Group Is Doubling Down on High-End Living Along Dwarka Expressway

As per a report by PropTiger, housing prices in NCR on average appreciated 6% last year after surging 49% amid the softening of demand for residential properties. Such growth is seen as a maturing market, with the situation shifting towards high-quality luxury developments.

Another report by ISIR stated that luxury home sales worth INR 10 crore and above in Gurugram increased 80% last year to INR 24,120 crore, driven by higher volumes and price rises. The city has become India’s fastest-growing high-end luxury residential market, with transactions reaching an all-time high of INR 24,120 crore for homes priced at INR 10 crore and above in 2025, up from INR 13,384 crore in 2024.

The report further highlights that Dwarka Expressway experienced a remarkable 2,079% increase in transaction value, jumping from INR 383 crore in 2024 to INR 8,347 crore in 2025, driven by large luxury launches and better infrastructure. This rise highlights strong domestic wealth creation, increased participation of HNIs and ultra-HNIs, and growing global investor confidence in Gurugram’s property market.

Alongside this infrastructure push, the profile of homebuyers in Gurugram is also undergoing a noticeable shift. The market is seeing rising interest from affluent professionals, entrepreneurs, and NRIs who are increasingly looking beyond location to factors such as larger homes, lifestyle amenities, and well-planned integrated communities. This evolving demand is coinciding with a broader premiumisation trend in the city’s housing market. Industry observers note that Gurugram’s current real estate cycle is being driven less by entry-level housing and more by high-value residential developments.

Amid this broader shift, developers are increasingly recalibrating their strategies from volume-led housing to value-driven developments that cater to evolving buyer expectations. They are introducing projects with contemporary design, curated amenities, and low-density planning, signalling a clear move towards a more lifestyle-oriented, premium housing landscape. MRG Group is among those aligning its approach with this transition, placing greater emphasis on high-end living formats along emerging growth corridors such as Dwarka Expressway. The company’s developments are being positioned around low-density planning, contemporary architectural design and a curated mix of lifestyle amenities. The move reflects a wider industry trend where projects are no longer defined merely by scale, but by the quality of living they offer; an aspect that is resonating strongly with the aspirations of next-generation homebuyers seeking both comfort and long-term value.

Rajjath Goel, Managing Director, MRG Group, says, “Dwarka Expressway has turned into one of Gurugram’s most promising residential corridors. As the corridor is now fully operational, we are seeing a noticeable shift in the type of buyers entering the market. People are now looking for thoughtfully designed homes, lifestyle amenities, and long-term value rather than just location. At MRG Group, our focus on high-end living along this stretch reflects that change in demand. We believe the corridor will play a defining role in Gurugram’s next phase of residential growth, and our developments are being planned to deliver a premium living experience aligned with the aspirations of modern urban buyers.”

Market experts believe the Dwarka Expressway has the potential to continue emerging as a key residential and commercial spine in the coming years. Alongside improved connectivity, the development of social infrastructure, office spaces and organised retail is expected to strengthen the area’s long-term appeal. As these elements take shape, the corridor is drawing growing interest not just from end-users but also from investors who view it as a high-growth micro-market. Therefore, the combination of infrastructure momentum and expanding urban amenities will continue positioning Dwarka Expressway as a promising investment destination within the NCR region.
