Pink Line becomes a ring in 2026

On 8 March 2026, the Majlis Park to Maujpur-Babarpur stretch of the Pink Line opened. This 12.3 km section closed the loop and made the Pink Line India’s first ring metro, about 71–73 km long. For Rajouri Garden, this means a Pink Line train can now take you around the city in either direction, through stations such as Netaji Subhash Place, Azadpur, Mayapuri, Delhi Cantt, Dilli Haat-INA and Lajpat Nagar, without a change at the old end points.

Before you rent or buy near Rajouri Garden

Check the circle rate. Stamp duty in Delhi is worked out on the deal value or the circle rate of the colony, whichever is higher.
Check the property tax record. The area falls under the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD). Ask for the latest paid property tax receipt and the property ID.
Check floor-wise ownership. In builder floors, confirm which floor, roof rights and parking are being sold, and that each is in the sale deed.
Check the use of the property. On main roads, many buildings mix shops and homes. Make sure the floor is allowed for the use you plan.
Put the deal in writing. Sign a registered rent agreement with rent, deposit, lock-in and maintenance clearly listed, and check the title chain and any loans before you buy.
