Designed as lifestyle hubs integrated with DLF’s residential communities, both will feature boutique cinemas, co-working zones, wellness centres under the ‘Thrive’ brand, and a curated mix of F&B and retail brands.

The company is also working on a 2.5 million sq ft mega mall in Gurugram as part of its long-term retail growth strategy. Currently, DLF’s retail portfolio spans around 4.5 million sq ft across eight properties, managed under DCCDL, its JV with Singapore's GIC.
