India's rapid infrastructure expansion is unlocking real estate potential in 30 emerging cities, with land prices projected to grow up to 5.2 times by 2035, according to a report by Colliers. The transformation is driven by the development of key expressways, positioning cities like Nagpur, Jaipur, and Lucknow as rising investment hubs.
Nagpur tops the list of emerging cities, bolstered by the 701-km Samruddhi Mahamarg Expressway, which has significantly enhanced connectivity and growth prospects. Jaipur and Lucknow follow closely, with burgeoning micro-markets such as Ajmer Road and Raebareli Road, respectively, showing immense promise.
Other high-potential locations include Ahmedabad's Shela, Agra's Shastripuram, Meerut's Ganga Nagar, Chandigarh's Kharar, and Bhopal's Indus Towne. These micro-markets, spread across tier-2 cities, are anticipated to see exponential land price growth, making them attractive for real estate investment.
The analysis highlights the transformative impact of infrastructure projects like the Bharatmala Pariyojana, which aims to modernize highways, expressways, and feeder routes. Iconic expressways, including the Yamuna Expressway, Mumbai-Pune Expressway, and Dwarka Expressway, have already demonstrated the ability to turn surrounding areas into real estate hotspots.
Colliers� evaluation considered key growth parameters, including physical and social infrastructure, demographic trends, economic activity, and real estate dynamics. The findings underscore the pivotal role expressways play in driving urbanization and land value appreciation in emerging cities.
As India accelerates its infrastructure development, these cities are expected to reshape the real estate landscape, offering lucrative investment opportunities for the future.
