Gurgaon: About 30kms from the centre of New Delhi and a fast developing city, Gurgaon is perhaps the most important of all Haryana towns. Gurgaon is perhaps the fastest developing city in northern India, and its proximity to New Delhi helps. Real estate is booming here with new buildings coming up faster than you can count them, and even offices are being relocated from congested and contaminated New Delhi. Another plus for this city is its proximity to the New Delhi’s International airport which is just 15kms away.
