Map of New Chandigarh

The northern gateway of the Greater Mohali Region.

New Chandigarh sits north of Mohali and west of Chandigarh, at the base of the Shivalik foothills. Connected via MDR-B (Chandigarh extension), MDR-C, and future transit corridors, it is planned as a regional gateway with strong links to Kurali, Baddi, Kharar, Chandigarh and Punjab’s wider network.

Vision & Principles

Inspired by the master plan, defined by five core pillars.

Diverse City

A balanced mix of living, learning, working and recreation, with integrated residential, commercial, education and health districts.

Destination City

Signature districts like the City Centre, lakefront, sports village, Orchard Avenue, and eco-tourism areas create a cultural and civic destination.

Green City

A continuous green-blue loop shaped by rivers, forests, open spaces, and ecological buffers, ensuring light-touch development.

Connected City

400m walkable grids, major arterials, proposed metro routes, and fine-grained street networks make movement effortless.

Low-Carbon Smart City

Sustainable water systems, stormwater corridors, renewable energy potential, and compact mixed-use planning reduce environmental footprint.

We believe Chandigarh's best days lie ahead.

Chandigarh Forever was founded to carry forward Le Corbusier's dream — a chance for families to own their own home and build a future for themselves and their children in a thoughtfully planned city.

Instead of watching our city become unaffordable, we have the opportunity to build a better future with sustainable homes, green corridors, and new neighborhoods that give younger generations the same quality of life their parents enjoyed.
