Property prices along the Yamuna Expressway corridor have seen a sharp increase from 2020 to 2025, and this growth can be attributed to the upcoming inauguration of the Noida International Airport. According to a report by SquareYards, ‘Runway to Realty: How Noida International Airport is Reshaping Realty,’ plot prices are expected to increase by up to 28%, whereas apartment prices may increase by up to 22%.
Apartment prices have seen a nearly tripled increase in the region within the last five years. Additionally, plot prices have seen a growth of 1.5 times within the same time span. However, there are certain micro-markets that have seen a growth of up to 5 times within the last five years.
This growth trajectory is expected to continue, and as a result, plot and apartment prices are expected to increase by up to 28% and 22%, respectively, in the upcoming years.
Airport-driven Growth to Revolutionize Realty Market in NCR
Noida International Airport was inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on March 28, 2026. It is one of the most significant upcoming infrastructure projects in India and will be the second civil airport in NCR. The upcoming Noida International Airport will be Asia’s largest airport and will be capable of handling nearly 225 million passengers in the final configuration.
“The Noida real estate market is currently at a pivotal moment, balancing its local roots with global ambitions, largely due to the upcoming Jewar International Airport,” said Tanuj Shori, founder and CEO, Square Yards.
“The airport is driving the development of a world-class aerotropolis, with significant long-term effects on housing demand, pricing, and investment activity. It demonstrates how strategic infrastructure can reshape regional identity and unlock sustained economic growth,” he said.
Aerotropolis Model and Infrastructure Boost Driving Demand
As mentioned in the report, the region is set to be developed as an aerotropolis model. This is an innovative approach that brings together aviation infrastructure, residential, commercial, industrial, and logistics ecosystems. As a result, the region is being positioned alongside global benchmarks such as Amsterdam’s Schiphol Airport.
As the center of a bigger economic ecosystem, the airport is currently being developed. Long-term regional growth is backed by commercial centers, logistics hubs, and industrial and manufacturing clusters.
This is projected that improved connectivity via multimodal transit networks and expressways will minimize travel times and boost accessibility. The region will become increasingly appealing to investors as a result of these efforts.
A shift in structure in the Noida real estate market is shown in the report. It continues to change into a high-growth real estate investment hotspot from a peripheral, end-user-driven ecosystem.
