Industry experts believe that the Union Cabinet's approval for metro connectivity between HUDA City Centre and Cyber City in Gurgaon will have a positive impact on the region's real estate sector.

According to Mohit Jain, Managing Director of Krisumi Corporation, the Central Peripheral Road along Dwarka Expressway has experienced remarkable growth in recent years. With the completion of the expressway approaching and the announcement of metro connectivity, the demand for residential properties is expected to surge among both end users and investors.

The improved connectivity and integration resulting from the metro project will benefit not only commuters in Gurugram and Dwarka but also enhance investment opportunities in the growing areas near Dwarka Expressway. This is likely to increase the region's appeal to homebuyers and companies alike.

This is expected to attract homebuyers and investors looking for a vibrant and well-connected community.

The metro line, with its 27 elevated stations, will improve operational efficiency and alleviate congestion. It will bridge both old and new areas, fostering connectivity and development.
