26 Dec 2025 CW Team

J Estates has announced its strategic entry into the senior living housing segment, with plans to develop three premium projects in Gurugram, Haryana. The projects will be spread across more than eight acres and comprise around 450 residential units, with an estimated Gross Development Value of Rs 21 billion.

The senior living developments are envisioned as multi-location, multi-format housing communities designed to address the evolving needs of India’s ageing population. With the senior demographic expanding steadily, organised senior living has emerged as a distinct residential category combining independence, safety, wellness and community living. Industry assessments have identified the NCR region, including Gurugram, as a key market due to its healthcare infrastructure and connectivity.

Commenting on the move, Anil Godara, Founder and Managing Director, J Estates, said the company’s entry reflects a long-term commitment to purpose-driven development focused on dignity, comfort and quality of life for senior residents.

The foray aligns with J Estates’ broader approach to responsible development, integrating sustainability, inclusivity and transparent governance, while building on its experience across integrated townships, commercial and retail projects.
