City’s luxury housing segment registers spectacular growth, but middle-class buyers suffer as prices skyrocket.
Delhi-NCR, June 10, 2025: Gurgaon, the Millennium City, has undergone a tremendous change in its real estate market due to increasing demand for luxury residential spaces. During the last few months, the premium market has seen a record boom with top developers introducing ultra-luxury housing projects with state-of-the-art amenities like smart home automation, infinity pools, and health-focused community areas.
This growth is part of a larger movement in India as a whole, where high-end residences are increasingly gaining market share. Several years ago, luxury apartments represented 7% of total residential transactions; today that number has more than tripled. This shift reflects an increased desire among high-net-worth individuals for homes that serve as lifestyle statements as well as investments. Even then, the rapid increase in property prices is gradually pushing out middle-income and first-time buyers.
In Gurgaon, mid-segment localities are also experiencing upward pressure on real estate prices.
Sharing his thoughts on the status of Gurgaon’s real estate, Mr. Vijay Jain, Managing Director of Star Estate said “Gurgaon continues to attract homebuyers, largely due to its rapidly developing infrastructure. Excellent connectivity through the Dwarka Expressway, NH48, NE4, and the Kundli-Manesar-Palwal Expressway ensures smooth travel across Delhi-NCR. Upcoming metro projects are also set to further reduce commute times and significantly enhance urban living standards. Gurgaon’s real estate market remains a hub for investors and homebuyers looking for high returns and a cosmopolitan lifestyle.“
He advocated that balanced growth with luxury intertwined with affordability. Greener and technology-driven living is the future of the real estate industry in Gurgaon with the developers following the same to highlight green buildings, smart energy efficiency, and intrinsic digital solutions commensurate with the evolving aspirations of homebuyers today. These facilities are not only indicative of the eco-friendly character but are also indicative of longevity and cost-effectiveness to the users.
Gurgaon’s realty story is not one sided. While the high-end segment being in the limelight, long-term market sustainability will be achieved through solving the issue of affordability, sustaining infra push, and inclusive growth. Through strategic interventions and pro-active measures, Gurgaon is best placed to be a building block in India’s realty story going forward.
