What to keep in mind
- Big public projects often run late. Treat announced dates and job targets as plans, not outcomes.
- Growth in the wider city does not guarantee price growth for any single plot.
- Buy for what exists today (the expressway, MIHAN employers, AIIMS, IIM) and treat projects still being built as possible upside.
