The National Capital Region saw its housing market tilt sharply toward luxury in 2025, with Gurugram accounting for 53% of new launches and 48% of sales while prices climbed 19% to ₹6,028 per sq ft.
Prime corridors such as Golf Course Extension Road now command ₹20,000–₹45,000 per sq ft, while Golf Course Road trades ₹16,500–₹39,500; even the supposedly affordable Noida Extension sits at ₹8,700 per sq ft.
A ₹25‑lakh annual earner can afford a ₹1 crore loan, translating to roughly 500 sq ft at ₹25,000 per sq ft or 1,040 sq ft at ₹12,000 per sq ft—underscoring why many opt for New Gurugram or Sohna.
Developers like DLF and Prestige are now launching projects in Sohna and Manesar, citing the 10,642 per sq ft price surge over five years as a driver, while Gurugram’s luxury segment remains out of reach for most.
The trend signals a broader geographic shift; municipal plans now include upgrading infrastructure in satellite towns, and the next housing census will likely reflect a 25% rise in non‑premium sales.
