Enhancing its appeal is the upcoming Delhi-Alwar Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS), expected to be operational by April 2026. The RRTS will significantly reduce commute times between Delhi and Dharuhera, with a dedicated station planned in the city. This transformative connectivity is set to turn Dharuhera into a true commuter suburb and investment hotspot within the NCR ecosystem.
The area’s real estate momentum is deeply anchored in its booming industrial ecosystem. With over 1,800 industries operating in and around the region, Dharuhera serves as a major employment hub, supporting a workforce of more than 1.6 million people. Global and domestic giants like Hero MotoCorp, Honda, Carlsberg, Gillette, Amul, and Jaquar have significant operations here, driving sustained demand for both rental and owned housing. The steady influx of industrial workers, professionals, and service providers ensures a reliable, end-user-driven real estate market, offering long-term stability for developers and investors.
The region has seen one of the most compelling appreciation stories in NCR’s periphery. According to data from 99 acres, residential plot prices have surged from Rs 20,000 per sq yard in 2019 to Rs 65,000-Rs 70,000 per square yard in 2025, reflecting a near threefold increase in just five years. The 2024 average stood at Rs 42,912 per sq yard, with select localities even breaching the Rs 57,000 mark. Despite this sharp rise, Dharuhera remains considerably more affordable than Gurugram, positioning it as a high-upside investment destination for early movers seeking both capital appreciation and long-term growth potential.
Vishesh Rawat, vice-president & head of marketing, sales and CRM, M2K Group, said, “From an industry standpoint, it’s clear that infrastructure is the ultimate catalyst, and Dharuhera is proving that in real time. With the Delhi-Alwar RRTS construction work commencing early 2026 and NH-48 offering seamless access to Gurugram and Delhi, this region is no longer peripheral; it’s pivotal.”
There is a classic pattern that where connectivity goes up, investor interest surges, and real estate values follow. What makes Dharuhera exceptional is that it offers all the right ingredients from mobility and affordability to industrial depth, at a reasonable price just next to Gurugram. This is not a wait-and-watch market; Dharuhera is entering its breakout phase, he added.
Dharuhera’s growth is driven by a balanced mix of affordability, location, and employment proximity. Residential properties yield between 2.2% and 3% annually, with consistent demand from industrial workers, young professionals, and budget-conscious families. On the commercial front, rental yields range from 6% to 8%, especially for properties located near highways and industrial clusters where footfall and utility are high. The tenant base is diverse, ranging from blue- and grey-collar workers employed in manufacturing units to IT and service professionals commuting from Gurugram, all seeking cost-effective yet well-connected rental options.
Ankit Kansal, managing director of 360 realtors, said, “From our lens, Dharuhera checks all boxes: affordability, connectivity, and growth potential. In the last five years, plot prices have more than doubled, yet remain far more accessible than Gurugram or Manesar. The RRTS and DMIC projects are not just infrastructural add-ons. Besides, investor sentiment has never been stronger, and with institutional developers entering, the region is evolving from speculative interest to end-user preference. Thus, we foresee that the market dynamics here point to sustained growth.”
Vineet Chellani, founder and CEO of Asset Deals, said, “We are seeing a paradigm shift in buyer profiles in Dharuhera. Earlier dominated by blue-collar rental demand, the region is now attracting upwardly mobile families and first-time homeowners. Enhanced road and rail connectivity, policy reforms, and improved social infrastructure have pushed Dharuhera into the investment spotlight. From budget apartments to plotted developments, demand is surging across segments.”
With yields averaging 6-8% in commercial spaces, even small-ticket investors are actively entering the market. “Hence, Dharuhera’s growth is not speculative, it’s structural, and the next five years will define Dharuhera’s leap into the NCR’s big league,” he added.
