India's National Capital Region continues to expand outward, and within this broader trajectory, Haryana has emerged as a critical growth engine. The state is witnessing a decisive shift from a traditional industrial base towards a diversified economy anchored by manufacturing, services, exports, and deepening integration with the NCR, as it works towards its Vision 2047 ambition of a USD 1 trillion economy.

 

In this context, Corridors & Clusters: Driving Haryana's Next Growth Phase, CBRE Research's latest report on Future Cities, examines this transformation through a real estate lens. The report assesses how Haryana's policy direction, connectivity infrastructure, and land development frameworks are shaping urban growth, and how sector-specific initiatives spanning industrial development, GCCs, data centres, affordable housing, and logistics are expected to influence real estate demand. Gurugram remains central to this story — from an industrial satellite town in the early 1980s to one of India's leading commercial and residential hubs, now home to over 100 million sq. ft. of completed office stock.

 

Beyond Gurugram, the report maps emerging growth centres across the state and outlines strategic priorities for stakeholders looking to advance sustainable urbanisation, affordable housing, and institutional investment.

The report's ongoing analysis is shaped by four key themes:

Gurugram's Evolution at Scale: From an industrial satellite town to a diversified urban centre with 250+ Fortune 500 companies, ~100+ mn sq. ft. of office stock, and ~USD 6.0 billion in investment inflows since 2018.

Policy Momentum: A sector-focused policy framework spanning IT/ITeS, GCCs, EVs, industrial development, and data centres is complemented by single-window clearances and Budget 2026-27's urban expansion agenda.

Connectivity as a Catalyst: Expressways, freight corridors, metro extensions, and upcoming RRTS corridors are unlocking new growth nodes and reinforcing Haryana's position as North India's logistics and manufacturing hub.

Emerging Growth Centres: Cities like Faridabad, Sonipat, Panipat, Bahadurgarh, Manesar, and Sohna are drawing developer investment as growth extends beyond core Gurugram.
