Gurgaon Residential Prices Hit All-Time Highs Amid Calls for Market Stabilization
Gurgaon’s residential property market has seen an extraordinary price increase, with average rates skyrocketing 67% over two years to reach ₹16,186 per square foot as of Q2 2025. This leap up from ₹9,718 per sq.ft in Q2 2023 has ignited debates about the market's future. Analysts point to a potential imbalance between luxury demand and affordability in saturated premium zones, even as new sectors draw value-focused investors.
Residential Prices Hit All-Time Highs
The Millennium City’s residential sector has outpaced national averages, driven by:
- Prime Micro-Markets: Golf Course Road and Golf Course Road Extension command rates exceeding ₹35,000 per sq.ft, catering to ultra-high-net-worth individuals (UHNWs) and luxury seekers.
- Dwarka Expressway Corridor: Prices here doubled from ₹5,360 (2019) to ₹11,000 per sq.ft (2025), fueled by infrastructure projects.
- Sector-Wise Divergence: Emerging areas like Sohna Road and New Gurgaon remain more accessible at ₹8,000–12,000 per sq.ft, offering 20%+ projected appreciation.
