Jaipur real estate market has been witnessing a host of large township projects, both by metropolitan city developers (such as Delhi, Mumbai) as well as city-based real estate developers. With this the township-style living is something that is slowly setting foot in the city.

As visible all across, the residential real estate at Jaipur is bound to roll out with a suit of integrated township projects, with housing units, lifestyle amenities of school, markets, clubhouses and infrastructure facilities of well laid out roads, landscaping, have been announced by developers likes Omaxe (Omaxe City), Suncity, DLF, MGF, Vatika (Vatika City), Ansal API (Sushant City), Grassfield, Panchsheel Colonizer and Parsvnath which has entered into a joint venture with a Jaipur-based real estate developer.

Besides there are some Jaipur based real estate developers such as Mahima, Narayan group, Narvik Nirman etc who have launched ambitious residential township projects.

These real estate projects in Jaipur are all on the peripheral areas and the average unit cost is between Rs 1500-1700 per sq. ft as compared to Rs 3,500-4,500 a square foot in the city. The Unique group launched a residential township at Ajmer road, 17 kms away from the city centre, last month with 3500 units including studio apartments (8 lakh), 2 BHK (15 lakh) and 3BHK (18 lakh).

Narvik Nirman had launched its township project-Pearl Springs with 2BHK of area 1040 sq ft for Rs 16 lakh and 3BHK of area 1450 sq ft for Rs 20-22 lakh. Ansal API' Sushant Lok was launched three years back on Kalwad road, which is 12 kms away from railway station.

With rising costs of land in the city, the real estate trends in Jaipur have shifted to the peripheral areas. But this is only true for property developers so far and not the end user for residential property. According to Vivek Jain of Narvik Nirman, "The end user is still not there in these projects so far. Developer after developer has been launching township projects in Jaipur but it is mainly the investor who is making speculative investments rather than the end user."

He says that their target was the middle class person who cannot afford the expensive real estate costs prevailing in the city. But the end user is not coming to peripheral areas for residential properties as these areas lack connectivity, even basic public utilities and infrastructure.

For the middle income group, city and periphery is like a choice between the devil and the deep sea. The upper income group can afford a car and travel long distances and commute to his office after shifting here but for the middle income group, there is a hardly a choice.
