Global City Gurugram Master Plan

Scale and location

The Global City is a landmark mixed land use township project being developed by the Haryana State Industrial and Infrastructure Development Corporation Limited (HSIIDC), a 100% State owned Infrastructure Development agency of the Govt. The Global City is strategically located over more than 1000 acres of land and spreads across parts of Sectors 36, 36B, 37 and 37B of Gurugram.

The exact footprint varies slightly across public sources. A Haryana government review meeting referenced in press coverage put the figure at 1003 acres, while earlier project notices before the land auction process began cited a larger 1080 acres figure across Sectors 36B, 37A and 37B. Investors should treat ~1,000 acres as the working figure and check HSIIDC's current notices for the finalised extent.

Land-use split

Officials briefing the Haryana Industries Minister described the approved land-use mix in specific terms: the city has multiple access from National Highway-48, Pataudi Road NH 352W and Dwarka Expressway and has a mixed land use of 56.08 per cent commercial, 40.05 per cent residential, 2.73 per cent institutional and 1.14 per cent utility with an average FAR of 3 (ranging from 1.5 to 12.5) with approximately 6 km long green corridor to promote healthy living with tranquil Artificial Lakes.

This is a commercial-heavy plan by Indian township standards, consistent with HSIIDC's positioning of the project as a new Central Business District for the National Capital Region rather than a purely residential township.

Phasing and timeline

Only Phase 1 has a firm, officially confirmed target date. Phase 1 (587 acres) will be completed by December 2026 with ₹940 crore infrastructure investment. This phase covers 13 km of internal roads, a 26 km stormwater drainage system, and a 10.7 km utility tunnel designed to house water pipelines, electrical cables, and other critical services, plus an 18-acre reservoir with a capacity of 350 million litres... providing a seven-day backup for the city.

Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini confirmed in early 2026 that Phase 1 will be completed by year-end, with no reported delays as of the latest updates. Independent tracking suggests as of early 2026, construction is 20% complete with roads, drainage, and a 350-million-litre water... reservoir underway.

Beyond Phase 1, media reporting cites full project completion is targeted for 2035, but HSIIDC has not published a detailed, dated phase-by-phase land-release schedule for the remaining ~400+ acres as of July 2026. Readers should treat any phase 2/3 land-use themes (for example, later-phase innovation or fintech clusters mentioned in some trade coverage) as indicative rather than officially confirmed.

Population and employment targets

The clearest official-source figures come from the same state review-meeting briefing: Global City would primarily focus on IT and AI-based industry focusing on India's AI mission (budgeted around 10,000 crores) and would be home to more than 1.8 Lakh resident population and a floating population of 5.8 lakhs, thus creating an overall direct and indirect employment potential of more than 4 Lakh employees.

Separately, some media analyses put the jobs figure higher — creating 5.2 lakh jobs and housing 1.8 lakh residents with 125+ amenities — so treat the employment number as a range (roughly 4–5.2 lakh) rather than a single confirmed figure until HSIIDC publishes a consolidated target.

Investment scale

The overall investment potential attached to the project is consistently reported at roughly ₹1 lakh crore. The proposed global city will cover an area of approximately 1080 acres in the Gurgaon district and has an investment potential of approximately $15 billion, or approximately Rs 1,00,000 crore. Of this, the Phase 1 public infrastructure spend specifically is ₹940 crore; the remainder is expected to come from private developers who buy plots at HSIIDC auctions and build the vertical residential, commercial and institutional towers themselves.

Planner and consultants

No single named international master-planning firm is confirmed in the public record reviewed for this page. HSIIDC's own materials say only that the township is Designed on international best practices in planning, development and management. Business Standard's reporting on the project gives more detail on the process: The Haryana government has spent the past two to three years consulting leading property developers from the National Capital Region (NCR), Bengaluru and Mumbai to shape the project's master plan and development strategy. Those consultations included assessing market demand, studying global best practices and evaluating the feasibility of developing a landmark structure within the Global City project, including a proposed supertall tower. Until HSIIDC names a lead master-plan consultant in an official document, this should be treated as an open item.

Where to find official documents

HSIIDC's corporate site (hsiidc.org.in) and the project's dedicated site (globalcitygurugram.in) are the primary official channels for notices, tenders and plot-auction details. Secondary reporting refers to a Final Approved Layout Plan that provides comprehensive zoning for the entire 1,002-acre development, but this page does not reproduce that document — check HSIIDC's own notices and e-auction portal for the current version and any RERA filings tied to individual developer plots, which should be verified on the Haryana RERA portal before any purchase.
