  Not too long ago, the conversation around real estate in North India rarely moved beyond the familiar pockets of Delhi NCR. By Sujeet Kumar Jha Gurugram, Noida and, to some extent, Ghaziabad shaped most of that narrative. Demand, pricing and new launches were largely centred around these markets. Anything beyond them existed, but it did not quite sit at the heart of the story. That is beginning to change. Recent data points to a clear shift.
