The top five corridors recognized by the report are Sohna, Dwarka Expressway, Golf Course Road, Golf Course Extension Road (GCER), and Southern Peripheral Road (SPR). These areas underscore a trend showing that central Gurugram has approached saturation, with the growth pattern now seen in these emerging locations. With Cyber City and Golf Course Road reaching their peak, the outward expansion towards South Gurugram is a key catalyst.
Leading the pack in this trend are Sohna and GCER, projected to achieve an appreciation of up to 1.6x by 2030. This growth is the direct consequence of a massive infrastructure push. The completion of the Gurugram – Sohna Elevated Corridor and the Delhi – Mumbai Expressway has cut travel time, turning Sohna from a peripheral suburb into an accessible, investment-worthy destination. Areas like Sector 66 and Sector 67 in the Golf Course Extension Road (GCER) belt are emerging as prime destinations for premium housing. With seamless connectivity, top-notch infrastructure, and proximity to commercial hubs, these sectors are witnessing strong buyer interest, offering ample opportunities for developers and investors in the luxury and upper-mid housing segments. Moreover, the strategic convergence of the IMT Sohna industrial hub and the upcoming Aravalli jungle safari gives depth to the location, making it a compelling choice for end-users and investors.
While Sohna drives the volume, the other four markets cater to various investors from the affluent section. Golf Course Road and Golf Course Extension Road remain the preferred address for high-net-worth individuals (HNIs), offering stability and premium appreciation. Dwarka Expressway and SPR are also emerging as micro-markets catering to both NRIs and HNIs, with their high-end apartments, villas, and gated communities. These locations also provide strong connectivity to key commercial hubs and the IGI airport.
Sumit Ranjan, COO, Roots Developers, said, “Dwarka Expressway and its adjacent areas are emerging as key growth passages in Gurugram’s evolving real estate landscape. Colliers India’s report highlights this micro-market as a prime destination for investors and homebuyers alike, driven by enhanced connectivity, robust infrastructure, and proximity to commercial hubs. With sustained demand for premium residences and luxury gated communities, Dwarka Expressway offers a compelling blend of convenience and quality of life. Its strategic location near IGI Airport and seamless access to Gurugram’s business district position it as a future-ready investment choice, poised for significant appreciation and long-term value creation in Gurugram’s dynamic market.”
Mr. Manik Malik, CEO, BPTP, says, “Golf Course Extension Road continues to emerge as the most sought-after residential corridor in Gurugram. The combination of high-quality civic infrastructure, thriving retail and hospitality hubs, leading educational institutions, and abundant green pockets has positioned GCER as the top choice for homebuyers who value lifestyle, convenience, and future appreciation. Connectivity upgrades and planned urban expansion are further strengthening the corridor’s appeal, making GCER a strong catalyst for housing demand and long-term investment in NCR. Sectors such as 61, 65, and 66 are seeing heightened interest, reaffirming GCER’s standing as the benchmark for modern living and real estate value creation in Gurugram’s fast-evolving landscape.”
Sudeep Bhatt, Director Strategy, Whiteland Corporation, says, “Gurugram has placed itself as the commercial centre of Delhi NCR, given its exceptional infrastructure, uninterrupted connectivity, and a flourishing business environment. Gurugram’s office and retail segments are witnessing a new momentum, driven by corporate expansions and a growing entrepreneurial base. Micro-markets like Sohna Road, Dwarka Expressway, and SPR are quickly becoming the next-gen business districts. Whiteland Corporation’s upcoming commercial development Urban Cubes 71 exemplifies this growth. Located on SPR, Urban Cubes 71 is a high-end commercial project that offers future-ready spaces designed for flexibility, sustainability, and experiential engagement. Gurugram continues to attract global and domestic enterprises, strengthening its stature as the preferred commercial destination and a cornerstone of India’s urban economy.”
Mr. Ankit Sharma, SVP-Leasing, Elan Group, says, “The Southern Peripheral Road is rapidly emerging as one of Gurugram’s most vibrant growth corridors, driving momentum both in residential development and commercial real estate. Its strategic connectivity to Sohna Road, Golf Course Extension Road, and key residential catchments is creating strong demand for premium retail, office, and mixed-use spaces. Elan Epic Mall is designed to harness this growth, shaping a dynamic commercial ecosystem that caters to the evolving needs of this corridor. SPR’s development story is not merely about buildings; it is about redefining how Gurugram lives, works, and experiences the city.”
The recent report by Colliers confirms a rich, multi-tiered market where price appreciation is achieved well. The top five micro-markets slated for this significant growth will set the stage for Gurugram’s real estate development for the upcoming years. Strategic urban planning ensures that Gurugram retains its place as a dominant and dynamic residential market in the entire NCR.
