We should start planning for the future because the best is yet to come. FDI is flowing in and the interest of NRIs towards Indian real estate for commercial and residential property is rising. If we just consider National Capital Region (NCR), we see an expansion in the length, breadth and width of the land mass with the inclusion of places like Manesar, Sonepat etc as a part of the NCR region.

NCR is not just getting bigger but also getting better. There would be a 360-degree development in the so-called New Gurgaon region with upgraded infrastructure in place. Better roads, well-managed water supply etc would be some of the key factors that are expected to be taken care of. Therefore one can be rest assured about connectivity with rest of NCR. So if we say that it's a correction phase that we are experiencing now, we indicate both economic and infrastructural components. Increasing space crunch in Delhi has in turn opened new horizons for such locations to be developed in way like never before, ensuring more competition and so a better market.

Developers are making the best possible use of this opportunity and soon urbanisation will encompass these areas, the way it touched Gurgaon some years ago. The volume of every city is expanding and the extended part of the city is now eyed in anticipation of the demand for property. Sectors 106, 108, 109 and 114 of Gurgaon will be the key areas for development due to their strategic location, vicinity to the Airport and for all practical purposes being a part of Delhi. The problem of major crunch in office space would be reduced to some extent once this area is developed. The case is similar for places like Mumbai, Hyderabad and Bangalore.
