Residential land across Delhi NCR is transacted using distinct regional units: square yards (gaj) in Delhi, Gurugram, Ghaziabad, and Faridabad, versus square metres in authority-governed sectors of Noida and Greater Noida.

4. Key Catalysts Driving 2026 Price Structures
- Noida International Airport (Jewar): Commercial operations at Jewar have transformed the Yamuna Expressway into a major industrial and logistics corridor. This has fueled a 50% to 100% appreciation in peripheral land parcels over the last 24–36 months.
- Arterial Highway Delivery: Seamless connectivity along the full stretch of the Dwarka Expressway, coupled with the Urban Extension Road II (UER-II) connecting Alipur to IGI Airport and Dwarka, has closed the pricing discount previously carried by northern and outer-peripheral sub-markets.
- Flight to Branded Developers: Post-RERA consolidation has concentrated buyer preference into Grade-A listed developers (DLF, Godrej, Tata, Oberoi, Prestige, Signature Global, Eldeco). This developer premium accounts for a 20% to 35% difference in asking rates against standalone local builders in identical sectors.
- Shift Toward Large Unit Sizes: Driven by hybrid work patterns and higher corporate compensation packages, inventory absorption is heavily skewed toward 3 BHK and 4 BHK units, causing smaller 1 BHK / 2 BHK layouts to appreciate at a comparatively subdued rate.
