Demand for Luxury apartment in Delhi on the rise
There are newer buyers coming forward when it comes to luxury apartments in New Delhi.

However, interest has revived in terms of new luxury real estate projects in Delhi.

Many of these buyers are also drawn towards these projects due to the lure of community living as per experts.

Customers are already willing to pay more if they view projects which are already being built or nearing completion. Most of these projects which are ongoing or about to be developed soon, have prices going upwards of Rs. 2-3 crore and even more. There are mid-range projects in the L-Zone, Dwarka area as well.
