In this analysis, Biltrax Construction Data provides insights into the building construction landscape of the North Zone for FY 2024-25. This report focuses on residential, commercial, retail, hospitality, healthcare, and various miscellaneous structures documented through the BX-1 platform. It examines key trends and major players shaping the region’s construction industry.
Introduction
As part of our ongoing ‘Zonal Analytics‘ series, this second article presents an in-depth evaluation of building construction trends in the North zone during FY 2024-25. Utilising Biltrax’s BX-1 platform, the analysis offers a detailed look at the region’s development activity across various sectors. These include residential, commercial, retail, hospitality, healthcare, data centers, educational institutions, multi-level car parks, entertainment hubs, religious buildings, and other miscellaneous structures.
In the fiscal year 2024–25, India’s North zone witnessed a substantial rise in infrastructure and real estate development. These were underpinned by strategic government policies and robust public investment. Major infrastructure initiatives such as the Delhi–Meerut Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS) and the Ganga Expressway have emerged as key transport corridors, catalyzing growth in surrounding real estate markets. These projects have consequently reduced travel time, improved accessibility, while also triggering demand for residential, commercial, and support infrastructure along their routes.
Urban development schemes, including the Smart Cities Mission and Affordable Housing Initiatives, have further accelerated the pace of construction in the North zone. These programs led to the creation of new residential clusters, institutional buildings, and civic infrastructure aimed at enhancing urban livability. Collectively, these efforts are reshaping North India into a dynamic zone for building construction and long-term urban transformation.

Construction Projects in the North Zone
In FY 2024–25, BX-1 tracked 1,412 building construction projects across the North zone. These developments collectively span nearly 510 Million-SqFt, with an estimated construction cost of 186,808 INR-Crore.

Luxury and high-rise developments comprised nearly 20.11% of all building projects, according to BX-1. This can be attributed to factors such as the rising disposable income, a growing aspiration for a luxurious lifestyle, and the continuous development of building projects in the region.
State-wise Construction Overview of the North Zone FY 2024-25 (Based on Construction Cost)
Of the total projects tracked in the North zone during FY 2024–25, Uttar Pradesh emerged as the leading state with 526 building projects. These developments span approximately 204 Million-SqFt and are estimated at 71,800 INR-Crore. These cumulatively account for 38.44% of the overall construction cost in the North zone. The state has showcased strong momentum in construction activity across multiple sectors.
| State | Project Nos. | Construction Area (Million-SqFt) | Construction Cost (INR-Crore) |
| Uttar Pradesh | 526 | 204 | 71,800 |
| Haryana | 215 | 142 | 52,074 |

Over the past year, Uttar Pradesh has taken decisive steps to strengthen its residential and educational infrastructure. Under the leadership of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, the state directed municipal corporations to identify one slum in each council and prepare detailed plans for multi-storey residential complexes. These projects will include schools, markets, and parks, creating self-sustained communities.
A major highlight was the approval of the ‘New Noida’ project near Greater Noida. Planned over the next 15 years, this new city will include industrial, residential, and commercial zones, significantly boosting real estate and infrastructure in the National Capital Region (NCR). The state also set a target of 32,000 INR-Crore in investment for hospitality and tourism. It aims to expand hotel and resort infrastructure across Varanasi, Ayodhya, Prayagraj, and Agra. Heritage properties—such as forts and palaces—are being offered to private developers to promote tourism.
To integrate housing, hospitality, and education under a unified urbanization plan, the Government launched Special Education Zones to attract top-tier academic institutions. It also allowed private and foreign universities to establish offshore campuses in the state. Furthermore, the Higher Education Incentive Policy – 2024, approved by the Cabinet, incentivizes private sector participation in higher education by offering support to new colleges and universities.
Following Uttar Pradesh, Haryana ranks second with 215 building projects, spanning a construction area of 142 Million-SqFt and estimated at 52,074 INR-Crore. This makes up 27.88% of the total building construction cost in the North zone.
