Nehru Place, Delhi

Nehru Place is a large commercial centre in Delhi that houses the headquarters of several Indian firms and rivals other financial centres in the metropolis like Connaught Place, Bhikaji Cama Place and Rajendra Place. Named after India's first Prime Minister, the neighbourhood was planned by the Delhi Development Authority in the 1970s, sits in the 110019 pin code, and today functions as one of the city's oldest organised commercial districts alongside a tightly-knit residential neighbourhood.

The residential side of Nehru Place borders upscale South Delhi enclaves, with nearby areas including Kalkaji, East of Kailash, Greater Kailash II, Chittaranjan Park and Kailash Colony offering easy access to key parts of the city. The area is a famous residential choice among those who do not prefer to travel much around the city to reach their offices, as the locality is right off the Outer Ring Road, and the housing stock here is dominated by independent builder floors and houses, typically configured as 4 BHK units and larger.

As a workplace address, Nehru Place is a big commercial area in South Delhi known for its offices and a busy IT market. It sits close to major employment hubs like DBS Business Center, Software Technology Park and L&T Business Park, and lies in close proximity to other major commercial hubs like Connaught Place, Rajendra Place, Bhikaji Cama Place and Okhla, making it a natural extension for professionals who already work in the area.

Beyond business hours, the locality has plenty going for it - from restaurants and hotels to shopping. Civic authorities have also drawn up plans over the years to spruce up the complex, including better roads, parking and a revamped shopping-cum-office arcade, aimed at giving the ageing business district a fresh look.
