Phase 1 will span 28.5 km from Millennium City Centre to Sector 101, with 15.22 km of viaduct and 15 stations along the route. The project, costing around Rs 56 billion, is expected to drive development in Gurugram, Manesar and Faridabad, Khattar noted.

Pradeep Aggarwal, Founder & Chairman, Signature Global (India), said: “The foundation of the Gurugram Metro Expansion Project marks a landmark moment in the city’s growth journey. Metro connectivity is the backbone of any modern urban ecosystem, and this expansion—spanning 15 km with 15 new stations—will ease mobility, decongest traffic, and unlock new opportunities for both businesses and citizens.”

Collectively, these projects are not only enhancing the real estate potential of SPR and Dwarka Expressway but also laying the foundation for balanced, sustainable, and inclusive urban growth.”
