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.

Swami Vivekananda's views on caste and sexuality were 'painfully' regressive

By Bhaskar Sur* Swami Vivekananda now belongs more to the modern Hindu mythology than reality. It makes a daunting job to discover the real human being who knew unemployment, humiliation of losing a teaching job for 'incompetence', longed in vain for the bliss of a happy conjugal life only to suffer the consequent frustration.

Beyond data: The economist who refused to remain in the ivory tower

By Vikas Meshram   There are few people who are born into privilege yet choose to dedicate their lives to the cause of the poor. Jean Drèze is one such individual. Born on January 22, 1959, in Leuven, Belgium, into the family of a distinguished economist, Drèze has become one of the most influential voices in the study of poverty, inequality, and social policy in India. Having lived in India since 1979, he adopted Indian citizenship in 2002 and has since played a pivotal role in shaping some of the country's most important welfare initiatives.
