Gurugram is becoming a hub of modern real estate, with the NCR market also gaining momentum; what is the reason?

Real Estate: India's real estate sector is projected to see robust growth in 2025, thanks to stable economic growth, changing consumer expectations, and increasing investment in both the residential and commercial segments. A trend toward premiumization is gaining momentum among homebuyers. The NCR witnessed strong end-user demand in the premium segment this year, further boosted by policy improvements, an improving financial environment, and rapidly developing infrastructure.

Gurugram emerged as a hub of this growth, with strong sales in the luxury, premium, and plotted housing segments. Improved connectivity to key corridors such as the Dwarka Expressway, Southern Peripheral Road (SPR), Golf Course Extension, New Gurugram, and Sohna, along with growing amenities and a growing corporate presence in the city, fueled a significant boom. Both residential and commercial segments benefited from the rise in GCC setups, Grade-A office leasing, and strong investor confidence.

Neeraj K Mishra, Executive Director, Ganga Realty, says, "2025 is poised to be a pivotal year for NCR real estate, especially for Gurugram, where demand patterns have clearly shifted towards high-quality, lifestyle-driven homes. Today's buyers prioritize convenience and sustainability, as well as properties with long-term value. This is driving developers to innovate. With the Dwarka Expressway nearing completion and major infrastructure upgrades expected to transform connectivity, 2026 will open up even more opportunities in emerging micro-markets. Ganga Realty is confident that the coming year will bring a significant increase in end-user and investor participation, supported by a stable economy and a maturing consumer mindset."

Saransh Trehan, Managing Director of the Trehan Group, said, "The residential market in NCR remained strong in 2025, and Gurugram saw strong sales, with several projects on offer. The city is now becoming a hub for modern real estate, offering a wide range of options, from high-end housing to land-based projects. As we move towards 2026, demand is expected to increase further, especially in areas like SPR, New Gurugram, and Sohna. Improved infrastructure, rising incomes, and the growing desire to live in secure communities are expected to drive sustainable growth in the market. Developers are also committed to providing customer-centric projects to homebuyers' preferences."

This pace is expected to accelerate further in 2026 as faster delivery of infrastructure is expected to keep demand strong in Gurugram's micro-markets as developers focus more on wellness-oriented design, sustainability and technical integration.
