The luxury housing segment continues to raise the bar of living in the Delhi-NCR region. A report by Cushman and Wakefield for Q1 2024 states the region captured 61% of high-end and luxury housing total launches, with the Gurgaon region leading the way. Moreover, the capital values in the NCR witnessed an increase of 1%–2% on a Q-o-Q basis and 12-15% on a Y-o-Y basis. This upsurge reflects a growing trend among affluent buyers towards more spacious and opulent living solutions.
The increasing demand for luxury projects in Gurgaon not only positions the city as an epitome of luxury living but also highlights the changing buyer preferences. Homebuyers seek properties that offer them spacious living options with premium amenities. The developers catering to the region have shifted their focus to the high-end segment of the market and are keen on curating premium projects.
Furthermore, various infrastructural developments, including road and metro connectivity in the city, have also boosted the demand for residential properties. The SPR corridor witnessed 3,614 units of new launches during Q1 2024, with the luxury segment accounting for 61% of the share. This further highlights the growing demand for premium living in this region.
Commenting on the same, Devendra Aggarwal, Co-Founder, and Joint Managing Director, of Signature Global (India) Ltd, expressed, “The demand for luxury homes in Gurugram is experiencing a significant surge, particularly in emerging hotspots like the Dwarka Expressway and Southern Peripheral Road (SPR). This trend is fueled by Gurugram’s strategic location, improved connectivity, and proximity to major corporate hubs.

Moreover, the city’s robust infrastructure development, including the expansion of metro lines and enhanced road networks, further elevates its attractiveness.
