Phase 4 Metro Delhi: Impact on Real Estate

Phase 4 of the Delhi Metro will enable hassle-free travel and improve the realty aspects of the National Capital Region. Delhi Metro phase IV has been approved, and its announcement will not only boost the capital market but also be beneficial for the rental scenario in years to come. 

The property value of the capital market has already seen inflation since the beginning of the construction. However, the rental market is expected to gain similar traction because of the connectivity only after the construction is completed. According to the opinion of the experts, the real estate market is bound to experience a boom around the proposed routes. The prices are anticipated to rise by 5-10% in the coming months, especially in the primary locations like Pitampura, Uttam Nagar, Janakpuri, Paschim Vihar, and Prashant Vihar. 

Delhi Metro Phase 4 Updates and Latest News

12 November 2021

New Delhi, India: S.C. has issued a statement saying that the DMRC would have to get a forest clearance to cut trees to complete the construction of the Delhi metro phase IV. According to reports, there is a dilemma whether the 5.3 km area is forest land or not. If the S.C. proves that it is forest land, DMRC would have to get permission under the Forest Conservation Act. 

3 November 2021

New Delhi, India: The three remaining corridors of Delhi Metro Phase IV, which extend for over 40 km, have been approved by the Project Investment Board (PIB). The construction cost of these lines is estimated to be ₹12,600 crores. The proposals are yet to be presented before the Union Cabinet for approval. A nod for all the six lines was given by the Delhi government in December 2018. But the Central government had approved only three corridor proposals on a priority basis in February 2019. Due to the delay in construction, because of COVID, the phase IV project of the Delhi metro is likely to miss its 2025 completion date.
