A new Colliers report identifies five Gurugram micro-markets, Sohna, Dwarka Expressway, Golf Course Road, Golf Course Extension Road, and SPR, as the NCR’s most promising real estate hubs. Backed by expressway connectivity and infrastructure upgrades, these corridors are projected to deliver 1.0–1.6X growth in the next five years, with Sohna leading the pack.
If you’re scouting for property investment opportunities in NCR, Gurugram continues to top the charts. According to a new report by Colliers India, the city has emerged as the most promising investment destination, outpacing satellite cities such as Noida, Ghaziabad, and Faridabad.
The report, titled “Emerging Micro-Markets Driving Growth in NCR’s Investment Landscape: Gurugram’s Sohna Micro-Market Rising as a Preferred Destination”, highlights five high-growth corridors within Gurugram that are expected to deliver 1.0–1.6X property appreciation over the next five years, Sohna, Dwarka Expressway, Golf Course Road, Golf Course Extension Road, and the Southern Peripheral Road (SPR).
Among these, Sohna stands out as the most promising, projected to deliver up to 1.6X growth by 2030, thanks to affordable pricing, expressway connectivity, and a series of infrastructure-driven catalysts.
Sohna: The Growth Leader Among Gurugram’s New Corridor
Once on the city’s fringes, Sohna has quickly transformed into a key real estate hotspot in South Gurugram. Its appeal lies in a mix of affordability, connectivity, and master-planned development.
Average residential prices in Sohna currently hover between Rs 10,000–12,000 per sq. ft. (BUA), about 2.3 times cheaper than core Gurugram markets like Golf Course Road or Golf Course Extension. Yet, developers and investors expect strong value appreciation over the next five years.
Colliers notes that Sohna has seen a graded supply of around 8,200 residential units, with only 45% available for sale, indicating strong absorption.
“Sohna, as one of the emerging micro-markets in South Gurugram, is anticipated to witness price appreciation up to 1.6X by 2030, benefitting both homebuyers and investors,” said Swapnil Anil, Managing Director, Advisory Services, Colliers India.
Infrastructure Push Powering Gurugram’s Expansion
Colliers attributes Gurugram’s continued dominance to its infrastructure expansion, policy support, and robust housing pipeline. Out of NCR’s total graded residential supply of 85,921 units, Gurugram, including Sohna, commands a massive 73% share.
For investors, this means the city remains the epicentre of NCR’s real estate growth, with micro-markets offering tiered opportunities across budgets and preferences.
The Delhi–Mumbai Expressway, IMT Sohna, and the upcoming 10,000-acre Aravalli Jungle Safari are driving the transformation of South Gurugram. Meanwhile, connectivity enhancements along Dwarka Expressway, SPR, and Golf Course Extension Road are boosting the city’s overall investment profile.
