The Haryana government has started the land acquisition process for Gurugram’s proposed Greater Southern Peripheral Road (Greater SPR), fixing compensation rates for six villages and earmarking approximately Rs 986 crore for the acquisition of around 160 acres.
The land acquisition department has finalised rates ranging from Rs 4.92 crore to Rs 8.25 crore per acre, according to an official statement cited by PTI. Badshahpur has been assigned the highest rate at Rs 8.25 crore per acre, followed by Maidawas at Rs 6.17 crore, Behrampur at Rs 5.26 crore, Dhumaspur at Rs 5.19 crore, Ullawas at Rs 4.96 crore and Kadarpur at Rs 4.92 crore per acre.
The land is being acquired on behalf of the Haryana Shahari Vikas Pradhikaran (HSVP). A further 116 acres required for the road has already been transferred to the government in exchange for transferable development rights, or TDRs, the statement said.
The Greater SPR is expected to strengthen connections across Gurugram and surrounding areas. Its proposed alignment will add capacity around existing growth corridors, including Golf Course Extension Road, the Southern Peripheral Road and adjoining sectors. The project is also being viewed as an infrastructure intervention with implications for emerging residential and commercial areas.
The announcement comes as Gurugram’s real estate sector continues to expand along peripheral corridors. Developers cited by PTI said progress on the road could improve access to residential and commercial hubs and support development in locations such as Sector 63A and areas adjoining Golf Course Extension Road.
Aman Sarin, director and CEO of Anant Raj Limited, described progress on the Greater SPR as significant for Gurugram’s real estate landscape. Manik Malik, president and CEO of BPTP, said infrastructure development plays a fundamental role in the long-term growth of urban centres and described the road as an important step towards strengthening Gurugram’s connectivity.
Rishabh Periwal, senior vice-president of Pioneer Urban Land and Infrastructure Ltd, said the initiative could influence emerging residential and commercial micro-markets along Golf Course Extension Road, the existing Southern Peripheral Road and adjoining sectors. Sudhanshu Dutt, CEO of Elevate Homes, pointed to Sector 63A and nearby areas as locations where improved road access could strengthen residential appeal.
The compensation decision is a key administrative step because land assembly is often central to the delivery of large urban road projects. In this case, the acquisition process combines direct compensation for approximately 160 acres with TDR-based transfer for another 116 acres. The official statement did not provide a construction start date, completion timeline, project cost beyond the stated compensation amount or details of the road’s final length and design.
The next stage will involve progressing the notified land acquisition and related HSVP processes. Further project milestones will determine when the acquired land is handed over for construction and when the Greater SPR moves from land assembly to physical implementation.
