Gurugram's real estate soars: Sohna and Dwarka Expressway lead the charge with triple-digit price growth

By A Representative 
Gurugram's real estate market is booming, with South of Gurugram (Sohna) and Dwarka Expressway emerging as top performers. Both micro-markets have seen property values more than double in the past five years, driven by extensive infrastructure development and strong demand from homebuyers and investors.
Sohna has experienced an impressive 151% surge in property prices over the last five years, with average prices now at ₹15,600 per sq. ft. This growth is largely due to improved connectivity and robust infrastructure, including the six-lane, 21.65-km-long Sohna Elevated Corridor, the Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor, the KMP Expressway, and a proposed metro line. These links significantly enhance accessibility to major cities like Delhi, Jaipur, and Mumbai. The Southern Peripheral Road (SPR) also connects Sohna Road to Gurugram's key commercial and residential areas.
Major developers such as Signature Global, Central Park Group, and Ashiana are heavily investing in Sohna, with plans to launch approximately 16,000 housing units. Mr. Pradeep Aggarwal, Founder & Chairman, Signature Global (India) Ltd., emphasized Sohna's strong growth potential, which is supported by competitive pricing and upcoming commercial hubs expected to boost both employment and housing demand. Beyond connectivity, Sohna offers quality healthcare facilities like Medanta - The Medicity, educational institutions such as GD Goenka University, and retail hubs like Signature Global Infinity Mall.
Future development plans further strengthen Sohna's investment appeal. The Sohna Master Plan 2031 designates 255 hectares along the Eastern Peripheral Road for commercial development. Additionally, the Haryana State Industrial and Infrastructure Development Corporation (HSIIDC) has acquired 607 hectares along the KMP Expressway to develop an industrial model township, positioning Sohna as a rising real estate and business hub.
Meanwhile, Dwarka Expressway has seen a 153% increase in property prices for high-rise apartments over the past five years, with an average price of ₹14,342 per sq. ft. This 29-km stretch, India's first 16-lane highway, provides seamless connectivity from Dwarka in Delhi to the Kherki Daula Toll Plaza in Gurugram. Mr. Ashok Kapur, Chairman, Krishna Group and Krisumi Corporation, noted that this significant price increase is a direct result of rapid infrastructure development and growing demand for premium homes in the area.
The appeal of Dwarka Expressway is set to grow with ongoing and upcoming projects. A newly constructed 5.1 km tunnel has already begun easing travel, with an eight-lane section connecting directly to Indira Gandhi International (IGI) Airport and a two-lane segment linking to NH-48 towards Gurugram. Furthermore, a new 5-km underground tunnel by NHAI, a ₹3,500-crore project, is planned to create a signal-free link between Shiv Murti-Mahipalpur and Nelson Mandela Road in Vasant Kunj, further decongesting traffic towards Dwarka and Gurugram. Construction for this is expected to begin in early 2026.
Connectivity will be further bolstered by the proposed metro corridor from HUDA City Centre to Cyber City, which will also include a branch connecting Dwarka Expressway. This metro link will provide seamless access to key parts of the city, making daily commuting easier for both residents and professionals. Top developers are expected to add over 25,000 housing units to this micro-market in the next three years, indicating robust future growth.

The making of a self-made woman: How eighty sheep changed everything for Kalawati Ninama

By Vikas Meshram*  About forty-two kilometres from Rajasthan's Banswara district, in the tribal heartland of Ghatol block, lies the small village of Ubapana. This is where Kalawati Ninama, her husband Dhulji, and their four children make their home. Their days unfold much like those of their neighbours—bustling mornings, long hours of farm labour through the afternoon, and evenings spent tending livestock. For this family, farming and livestock were once simply a means of putting food on the table. Today, they have become the sturdy foundation of something far greater: genuine self-sufficiency.

India has spent billions on skilling. Where are the jobs?

By Vikas Gupta   India loves the photograph of a certificate ceremony. A minister on a stage. A banner bearing the word “skill.” Young people holding folders that promise a future. It is a reassuring image because it tells us the problem has a manageable answer: train the young, make them job-ready, and work will follow.
