Best Localities in Kolkata for Real Estate Investment in 2025

The real estate market in Kolkata is fast evolving and a clutch of fresh-impetus areas have emerged as attractive investment prospects/destinations in circa 2025. Places like Joka, New Town, Rajarhat, Garia, the Southern Bypass and Tollygunge are some of the new growth areas, riding on the pluses of strategic location, vastly improved connectivity and all-round infrastructure upgrade.



Some of the most sought-after localities this year:


  • New Town: This satellite township is fast becoming more mainstream insofar as popular property destinations go at this moment. With its modern infrastructure elements, well-planned layout and zoning of residential complexes, office hubs including IT parks, shopping centres, educational institutions and wide roads, New Town is now an attractive destination for real estate developers, be it residential, commercial or retail projects. Ditto for young professionals looking for new homes.

  • Rajarhat: This rapidly-expanding region has an eclectic mix of residential, business and retail centres to suit every budget and is fast becoming a favourite with investors looking for a rental income. Its proximity to the airport and IT hubs makes Rajarhat a favourite location for investors looking for high rental incomes and strong appreciation.

  • Garia & Southern Bypass: The Metro expansion to Kabi Subhash station and the commissioning of the New Garia-Airport line have provided fresh impetus to this region, with property and land prices appreciating manifold. With a number of hospitals and reputed schools in the vicinity, Garia, New Garia and the Southern Bypass have become much coveted destinations, with a staggering number of new residential projects coming up in the area.



  • Joka: The Joka-BBD Bag Metro connectivity has been driving growth in the area over the past few years. A number of prestigious educational institutions including the Indian Institute of Management Calcutta (IIMC), top schools and colleges and hospitals also add value to the property market in the Joka region. Also, it’s a great option for first-time buyers and mid-range budgets with a number of reasonably priced properties, ready or under construction.

  • Tollygunge: This has been a perennial favourite with home-seekers in Kolkata, with its bevy of attractions, including the fabled golf courses of the Royal Calcutta Golf Club and The Tollygunge Club, the North-South Metro line, ample parks and green spaces as well as easy road connectivity with the centre of the city. There are a range of residential properties in and around the Tollygunge area, with many new projects launched in the recent past, to choose from.

  • EM Bypass: With its great connectivity, presence of reputed schools, colleges, hospitals and shopping malls, EM Bypass remains one of the favourites with home-buyers in 2025. It provides easy access to the main city areas with key connectors right through, including the Anwar Shah Road, Santoshpur, Kasba, Beleghata, Phoolbagan link roads. Salt Lake, Ultadanga and the airport are also easily accessible, prompting a raft of real estate developers to announce new projects along this vital north-south corridor on the city’s eastern fringes.

  • Dum Dum: With the Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose International Airport being its key energizer, Dum Dum has other critical locational advantages like being a Metro rail hub, its proximity to the Sector V and New Town business districts, VIP Road, BT Road and Salt Lake. Shopping malls like Diamond Plaza and hospitals like Spandan and Aditya and a number of heritage schools make the area much sought-after in terms of ownership as well as rental properties. Dum Dum is one of those perennially favourite areas which never goes out of fashion.
