The Dwarka Expressway was once pitched as a future corridor. That future has arrived. In just five years, this 29 km stretch linking Dwarka to Gurugram has transformed into one of NCR’s most sought-after real estate zones, with property prices shooting up 3.5 times between 2020 and 2025, as per Square Yards’ latest report. What began as a long-awaited road project has grown into a fast-moving urban belt powered by new infrastructure, premium housing and expanding connectivity.
Connectivity Push Ignites Demand
The expressway’s role as India’s first 16-lane access-controlled corridor gave it early visibility, but the recent infrastructure upgrades have changed the game. The opening of UER II and the Delhi segment of the expressway has eased movement between West Delhi, South Delhi and Gurugram, turning long commutes into routine drives.
Planned improvements continue to add weight to the region’s promise. The Yashobhoomi Convention Centre has emerged as a major events hub. The redevelopment of Bijwasan Railway Station is underway. Gurugram Metro Phase 1 promises seamless local movement. The proposed heliport near Sector 84 may become an unexpected differentiator, offering business travellers a quick hop to key destinations. Each upgrade deepens the corridor’s pull, especially for homebuyers seeking long-term value.
A Magnet for Premium Housing
Developers haven’t taken long to respond. More than 115 active residential projects now line the expressway, with 28 new launches during 2025 alone adding nearly 14,000 units. Signature Global has made some of the most high-profile moves with De-Luxe DXP in Sector 37D and Twin Tower DXP in Sector 84.
Its upcoming DXP Estate, envisioned as a modern, multi-phase township, is shaping into a major landmark. Vastu-aligned homes, ample sunlight, cross-ventilation and sustainability-focused layouts are central to its design. The estate also sits near the upcoming Global City, a massive 1,000-acre mixed-use development that could redefine the region’s urban identity. For many buyers, the combination of strong connectivity, premium design and future-ready planning has turned Dwarka Expressway into an aspirational address.
Wellness-Focused Living Gains Ground
The shift towards holistic living is another visible trend. Signature Global has partnered with leading wellness and lifestyle organisations through Ileseum to bring curated experiences into DXP Estate. Residents can access Tatva Spa, the Michael Phelps Swimming Academy, Matrix Dance Academy by Tiger Shroff, Tagda Raho and Ajivasan Music Academy. These additions reflect a wider change in buyer preferences, especially among mid- and upper-income families looking for more than just an apartment.
A Corridor Fuelled by Investor Confidence
Developers with a strong land bank have doubled down on the region. Signature Global alone holds 53 acres on the expressway, with 9.4 million square feet of planned saleable area. Of this, 3.1 million sq. ft. has already been launched.
The Square Yards report highlights that the market is largely driven by premium 3–4 BHK homes ranging from Rs 1.8 crore to Rs 3.5 crore. With price appreciation clocking nearly 28 percent annually, both investors and end-users have treated the corridor as a high-potential bet.
Rajat Likhyani of Square Yards notes that Dwarka Expressway has shed its earlier image as a fringe location to become a core residential hub. The numbers back him. A 3.5-fold rise in prices in five years is rare in NCR’s recent real estate cycle.
A Growth Story Still Unfolding
The corridor’s appeal rests on a simple formula: strong infrastructure, consistent developer interest and a growing appetite for premium homes. With major projects still coming up, the expressway’s growth curve hasn’t peaked. It is now a corridor where long-term planning meets visible on-ground progress.
The story of Dwarka Expressway is far from finished. If anything, it’s entering its most promising chapter.
