Gurugram Property Prices Skyrocket, Residents Flag "Poor Basic Amenities"

People eyeing a home in Gurugram will now have to pay more as the district administration has hiked the circle rates by 10% to 30%, driven mainly by demand. According to reports, the new circle rates have come into effect from December 1 and will be applicable at least till March 31 next year. The price hike, however, has irked the residents, who alleged that the administration should also "improve basic amenities". Gurugram, which is known as the Millennium City and houses many IT companies, witnesses heavy rainfall every year. The downpour then leads to severe waterlogging and flooding in various parts of the city, particularly in residential areas. Here's Shreya Ghosh's report.
