GURUGRAM: Gurugram, buoyed by infrastructure developments and the realisation of developmental vision in areas along the Dwarka Expressway, led the way in propelling Delhi-NCR to record the highest year-on-year property price growth among India's top cities in the first quarter of 2025, according to realty reports and studies.

Gurugram not only led the way for the highest year-on-year price hike among the top eight cities, according to a report by realty expert Knight Frank India, with a CREDAI-Colliers-Liases Foras study estimating a 58% year-on-year surge in values of property located along the expressway since the last quarter of 2024, surpassing all other micro-markets in the country.

The Dwarka Expressway chiefly comprises newer parts of Gurugram, encompassing sectors 99 to 114.

Sandeep Chhillar, founder and chairman, Landmark GOC, said, "The catalyst behind Gurugram's breakout year lies in infrastructure and Dwarka Expressway is a textbook case of how connectivity transforms value. The corridor is not just improving mobility but also elevating lifestyles. We are witnessing a dramatic shift in buyer preference towards large and premium homes, especially 3 and 4 BHKs, as affluent buyers seek more than just square footage. As revealed by CBRE, luxury housing sales in Delhi-NCR grew by 28% year-on-year in 2024, and Dwarka Expressway played a key role in this surge. This corridor will continue seeing portfolios aligned with these growth arteries, catering to the lifestyle needs in the future."
