Comparing Roots Courtyard 2 with Other Projects in Sector 95A, Gurugram

Comparing Roots Courtyard 2 with Other Projects in Sector 95A, Gurugram

Introduction

Sector 95A in New Gurgaon is fast emerging as a residential hotspot. Multiple projects are coming up here, ranging from plotted townships to high-rise affordable apartments. One notable new entrant is Roots Courtyard 2, a luxury plotted development by Roots Developers. In this blog, we’ll compare Roots Courtyard 2 with other nearby projects (like Signature Global’s affordable housing and projects by ROF and MRG) in terms of pricing, location, builder reputation, floor plans, amenities, and investment potential. The goal is to give you clear, real-world data so you can easily weigh the options.

Location and Connectivity Advantages

Sector 95A enjoys strategic connectivity in Gurugram. It lies just off major upcoming highways and is well-positioned for future growth. For instance, Dwarka Expressway is only about 2 minutes away, and NH-48 (Delhi-Jaipur Highway) is a quick 4-minute drive. The location offers easy access to IMT Manesar (10 min) and even the IGI Airport in roughly 20 minutes. This means whether you choose Roots Courtyard 2 or an apartment complex like Signature Global’s, you’ll benefit from smooth connectivity to Delhi, Gurugram’s commercial hubs, and the NH8/KMP expressway loop.

Another highlight is the planned infrastructure around 95A. A 200-acre recreational park is proposed adjacent to Roots Courtyard 2, which would give residents huge green space for leisure. Even today, the sector is close to schools (Delhi Public School, St. Xavier’s High School within 4–12 min) and hospitals (Apollo Spectra in Sec-82 at ~10 min). Daily shopping needs are being catered to by local retail hubs like Signum Plaza 95A and nearby commercial areas. In short, Sector 95A offers a balance of upcoming infrastructure and existing conveniences, making it attractive for both end-users and investors.

Pricing and Unit Size Comparison

One of the biggest differences between Roots Courtyard 2 and other projects in the area is the price bracket and property type. Below is a comparison of pricing and unit sizes across these projects:

ProjectType of DevelopmentPrice RangeTypical Unit/Plot SizeStatus (Launch/Possession)
Roots Courtyard 2Gated Plotted Colony (DDJAY)₹3.12 – 3.36 Cr for 147–179 sq.yd plots (approx. ₹1.9 lakh/ sq.yd)147 – 179 sq.yd plots (build up to 4 floors)Launched 2025, Possession by Mar 2028(under construction)
Signature Global Roselia (95A)High-Rise Apartments (Affordable Housing)₹51 – 67 lakh for a ready 2 BHK (resale market)
(Originally ~₹20–25 lakh under govt scheme)
~590 sq.ft. 2BHK carpet area (about 2 BHK only)Launched 2017, Ready by 2021 (1101 units over 8 acres)
MRG The Balcony (Sec 93)High-Rise Apartments (Affordable Housing)₹70 – 85 lakh for a 2 BHK (resale)
(Originally ~₹25 lakh under scheme)
~609 – 700 sq.ft. 2BHK carpet areaLaunched 2019, Ready by 2024 (731 units over 5 acres)
ROF Ambliss (Sec 78)High-Rise Apartments (Affordable Housing)₹25 – 30 lakh for 2/3 BHK (allotted under 2022 scheme)~500 sq.ft (2 BHK) to 645 sq.ft (3 BHK) built-upLaunched 2022, Possession by ~2025 (under construction affordable project)

Pricing Takeaway: Roots Courtyard 2 is in a luxury price league of its own, with plots costing in crores, whereas the other projects are part of Haryana’s affordable housing segment (priced in lakhs). The apartments by Signature Global, MRG, and ROF were initially allotted at around ₹20–30 lakh by lottery, making them budget-friendly for first-time buyers. Now in resale, those flats cost about ₹50–70+ lakh, which is still only about one-fifth the cost of a plot in Roots Courtyard 2. However, with Roots Courtyard 2 you’re buying land and the freedom to build a larger home (even a 3BHK on each floor of your future house) – a different value proposition altogether. It really comes down to your budget and whether you prefer an independent home versus a smaller flat.

Builder Reputation and Track Record

Roots Developers (builder of Roots Courtyard 2) is a boutique developer with a few projects in Gurugram under its belt. They delivered the original Roots Courtyard apartments in Sector 48 around 2014, and also a project called Roots The Orchard in 2016, establishing a modest track record. Customers know them for honest dealings and transparency, but they don’t have as large a portfolio as some competitors. Roots Courtyard 2 is an ambitious new venture for them, and it’s RERA-registered (ID: GRG-1489-2023) for buyer protection.

Signature Global, by contrast, is one of Gurgaon’s most renowned developers in the affordable housing space. They have delivered multiple projects across the city. In Sector 95A, Signature Global’s “The Roselia” project delivered 1101 apartments across 11 towers and has been home to families since 2021. Signature Global is known for timely delivery of government scheme housing and has even ventured into premium housing (e.g., Signature Global Prime in Sector 63A). Their reputation for value-for-money and scale is a big confidence factor for buyers.

MRG World is a relatively newer player, but they successfully delivered MRG The Balcony in Sector 93 – which was awarded for eco-friendly design in 2024, indicating quality and innovation. MRG’s background includes finance and agro-business, and they’ve proven reliable in the affordable segment with projects like The Balcony and subsequent launches in sectors 89 and 90. Their focus on sustainable features (like solar, EV charging, etc. as seen in The Balcony) shows a modern approach.

ROF Group (Ramada Group) is an established name in Haryana’s affordable housing. They have completed projects like ROF Ananda (Sector 95) and ROF Aalayas (Sector 102) in the last few years. ROF Ambliss in Sector 78 is their latest affordable project launched in 2022 (RERA No. 74/2022), and the builder is known for decent construction quality and delivering what’s promised under the scheme. While ROF doesn’t offer high luxury, they have earned trust among budget homebuyers by consistently participating in the government housing program.

Builder Takeaway: If having a big-brand developer matters to you, Signature Global stands out for its strong track record and large customer base. ROF and MRG are also credible for affordable homes with successful deliveries. Roots Developers is smaller but has been “steady and earnest”, with Roots Courtyard 2 being a chance for them to solidify their reputation further. For a buyer, this means you should check RERA compliance (all these projects are RERA-registered) and past delivery timelines. Signature Global’s Roselia, for example, launched in 2017 and handed over by 2021, which is reasonable. Roots Courtyard 2, being new, will be watched closely for on-time completion by 2028.

Floor Plans and Unit Layouts

The concept of “floor plan” differs greatly between Roots Courtyard 2 and the apartment projects:

  • Roots Courtyard 2 (Plots): Here you are essentially buying a plot of land of 147 to 179 square yards. The floor plan is whatever you decide to build! The plots are designed such that you can construct a spacious independent home (up to Ground + 4 floors) – for example, many owners may build stilt parking plus 4 floors and potentially have a 3 BHK apartment on each floor. All plots in Courtyard 2 are thoughtfully laid out and almost all are East-facing for vaastu compliance and morning sunlight. This gives end-users the flexibility to customize their house design or even build multiple floors to rent/sell separately. The plotted colony’s internal roads (12m and 9m wide) ensure each plot is accessible and not cramped. Essentially, with a plot you get a blank canvas to create a home tailored to your needs.
  • Signature Global Roselia (Affordable Flats): Roselia offers 2 BHK apartments only – each roughly ~515–570 sq.ft. carpet area (around 595–670 sq.ft. built-up including balconies) depending on the layout. These flats typically have a living room, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a kitchen in a compact format. Being an affordable housing project, the floor plans focus on efficiency: use of space is optimized, with smaller room sizes but enough for a nuclear family starting out. There were two main unit types – Type A (~569 sq.ft. carpet) and Type B (~514 sq.ft.) – both sold in the range of ₹21–23 lakh initial price. For someone buying a resale unit now at ~₹60 lakh, you get a modest-sized ready flat with basic finishes. The layouts are adequate if you prioritize budget over spaciousness. All towers have elevators and 14-19 floors of similar 2BHK units repeated.
  • MRG The Balcony (Affordable Flats): The Balcony also consists of 2 BHK apartments, slightly varying from ~609 to 700 sq.ft. (super area). The designs here might feel a tad more modern than older affordable projects, with 2 bedrooms and 2 washrooms in ~600 sq.ft. carpet. MRG provided two layout options (as per their brochure Type-1 and Type-2) with minor differences in dimensions. The apartments come with standard finishes and fittings (vitrified tiles, decent bathroom fixtures, etc.). For a current price of around ₹70+ lakh, you get a small but functional 2BHK. One notable point: since these are under affordable policy, balcony area is capped and part of the pricing – so there are usually 1 or 2 small balconies in each flat.
  • ROF Ambliss (Affordable Flats): ROF Ambliss offers 2 and 3 BHK small apartments. A typical 2 BHK there is around 500 sq.ft. carpet, and a 3 BHK ~645 sq.ft. carpet (which is astonishingly compact for a 3BHK). Essentially, the 3 BHK is more like a 2.5 BHK, fitting three small bedrooms. These flats come with bare minimum finishes (as per affordable norms) but usable layouts for low-income families. The floor plans are tight – every inch is utilized and there’s not much distinction between living areas. These units were allotted via draw at very low prices (₹25–27 lakh) so the expectation is basic housing. If you book one, be aware the space is limited and it’s about having an own home in Gurgaon at a low cost, rather than spacious luxury.

Layout Takeaway: If you desire space and customization, nothing beats Roots Courtyard 2’s plots – you can design a bungalow or even develop builder floors for resale. In contrast, the apartment projects are all 2 BHK-centric, with compact layouts around 600 sq.ft. They suit small families or singles just fine, but will feel snug if you’re used to larger homes. Think of it this way: one plot in Roots Courtyard 2 could accommodate a villa with maybe 4 x 3BHK units (one per floor) – that’s effectively four times the housing of a single affordable flat. On the other hand, if you don’t want the hassle of construction and prefer a ready-made cozy flat, the affordable 2BHKs serve that purpose well.

Amenities and Facilities

Roots Courtyard 2 is positioned as a premium township, so it promises a richer set of amenities within a gated community. Despite being a plotted development, it will have a 17,000 sq.ft. clubhouse on about 1.25 acres – that’s sizeable, on par with many high-rise societies. Planned amenities include a swimming pool, gym, indoor games, and community hall in the clubhouse. The layout shows plenty of green open spaces, landscaped parks, an amphitheatre, pet park, jogging tracks, and sports courts (badminton, basketball, skating rink). Importantly, a portion of the project is adjacent to that huge 200-acre park mentioned earlier, which will further extend the leisure space for residents. Being a modern colony, expect all services underground (power lines, water, sewage treatment) and robust security with CCTV and controlled entry. In short, Roots Courtyard 2 is offering a luxury lifestyle vibe – you get the independence of a plot plus the conveniences of a gated community (something that differentiates it from older plotted colonies).

In contrast, Signature Global Roselia being an affordable apartment complex, offers more basic amenities (keeping in mind the lower cost). It has a community center/clubhouse but on a smaller scale. Residents benefit from a kids’ play area, jogging track, open green area, and a crèche for toddlers. There is a mention of a swimming pool and badminton court in some listings, which suggests Roselia did include a modest sports area and maybe a small pool (some later affordable projects did add a pool). The project also includes the Signum 95A retail complex within its premises for daily shopping needs. Security and parking are standard but not fancy (e.g., open parking or stilt parking and manned gates with CCTV). Essentially, Roselia covers the essential amenities but don’t expect lavish club facilities – the focus is on affordability.

MRG The Balcony similarly provides the necessities for a decent lifestyle. According to the project info, it has about 50% open space on 5 acres and a 1.25 acre central green zone. Amenities include a community hall, small clubhouse, gym, children’s play area, landscaped garden, and sports like badminton, basketball courts, skating rink etc. Impressively, The Balcony even has features like a creche, cafeteria, and swimming pool listed – showing that some affordable projects now try to mimic bigger societies. These facilities, while present, are not as upscale or large in capacity as luxury projects – but they do foster community living and recreation. MRG also implemented eco-friendly measures (rainwater harvesting, solar, etc.), which is a plus.

ROF Ambliss will have basic common amenities as per policy: expect a community center, kids’ play zones, and green area. The brochure highlights yoga space, jogging tracks and perhaps a small open-air gym. Given ROF’s other projects, they usually ensure things like a badminton court, perimeter security and a shopping arcade for residents. However, as an affordable housing, the amenities are utilitarian – there to meet scheme guidelines and provide some comfort, but not luxury.

Amenities Takeaway: If you seek a rich array of amenities and a luxury feel, Roots Courtyard 2 clearly stands out. It’s rare for a plotted colony to offer such a comprehensive amenities package (clubhouse, pool, sports courts, retail, large park) – this will appeal to those who want an upscale, community environment while still living in an independent home. The affordable housing projects do offer a surprising number of facilities (parks, play areas, sports corners), but these are more modest. They are great for children’s play and basic fitness/recreation for families. Just don’t expect a huge fancy clubhouse or concierge services in an affordable project. In summary, for lifestyle amenities, Roots Courtyard 2 > MRG The Balcony ≈ Roselia > typical affordable, with Roots delivering a premium experience.

Investment Potential and Appreciation

Investors often evaluate these projects differently from end-users. Here’s how they stack up in terms of investment potential:

  • Roots Courtyard 2 (Plots): Plotted developments in Gurgaon have historically seen strong appreciation because land is a scarce asset. Buying a plot at ₹3+ Cr is a big outlay, but the upside is that by possession (2028) the area’s infrastructure (Dwarka Expressway, new metro lines, Global City, etc.) would be fully operational, likely pushing land prices higher. Being adjacent to a huge park and part of New Gurgaon’s growth corridor adds to its allure. Additionally, as an investor, you have flexibility – you could build independent floors on your plot and sell/rent each floor separately in the future for profit. Many Gurgaon investors follow this route in DDJAY colonies: e.g., construct 4 floors and sell each 3BHK floor for, say, ₹1.2–1.5 Cr depending on market, effectively doubling the initial investment. The rental yield on land itself is zero until developed, but once you build, each floor’s rent could be ₹15k–25k (for a 3BHK) easily, multiplying your income. Risk: The investment horizon here is longer and dependent on construction. Also, ₹3 Cr tied up in land is not liquid. But for those bullish on New Gurgaon, Roots Courtyard 2 offers a chance to own a piece of this future upscale enclave. If infrastructure booms, the plot values could appreciate significantly (think of sectors along the Golf Course Extn Road – plots bought years ago have skyrocketed). So, for investors with deep pockets, this could be a high-reward asset in 5-10 years.
  • Affordable Apartments (Roselia, The Balcony, Ambliss): These were fantastic investments for those who got initial allotment. For example, a Roselia flat bought at ₹21 lakh in 2017 is now worth about ₹55–60 lakh – nearly 3X jump in value in 6-7 years. MRG The Balcony saw similar appreciation from ~₹25L in 2019 to around ₹75L in 2025 (projected). That is because the government’s affordable housing scheme offers units below market rate, and once the mandatory 5-year lock-in is over, original allottees often sell at open market price. However, if you are buying now at the resale price, the future appreciation may be more muted. The prices have largely caught up to the general market for 2BHK in that area. Going forward, these flats might still appreciate with overall market trends (perhaps giving 5-7% annual gains if the area develops well). Rental yield on affordable 2BHKs is moderate – currently about ₹12k–18k per month in Roselia, on a ~₹60L asset (yield ~3-4% which is decent). The upside is these units are easier to rent (high demand from working class families). For ROF Ambliss, since it’s under construction, an investor could try to get an allotment at ₹25L and hope to exit around ₹50L after a few years – basically replicating the Roselia/MRG story. But keep in mind, affordable housing flats have a 5-year lock-in from possession for original buyers (meaning you can’t sell before 5 years of getting keys). So it’s not a quick flip; it’s a 7-8 year play (4 years construction + 5 years lock). If you are buying after lock-in on resale, there’s no restriction, but then you’re buying at higher price already.

In terms of rental demand, Sector 95A and nearby sectors are seeing more occupancy as projects complete. Affordable 2BHKs rent out faster due to lower rent rates – good for steady rental income. Plots/independent homes can fetch higher rent per floor, but you must invest in building and managing those rentals.

Who should invest? If you are a seasoned investor with capital and patience, Roots Courtyard 2 plots offer land ownership and potentially higher long-term ROI, especially with the option to build and sell multiple units. If you are a smaller investor or first-time investor, an affordable apartment might be easier to handle – it’s a lower ticket size and you can either rent it out or expect moderate appreciation as the area matures.

Resale liquidity: Flats in completed affordable projects (Roselia, etc.) are fairly liquid in resale because many middle-class buyers look for ready 2BHK in the ₹50–70L range in Gurgaon. Plots at ₹3 Cr cater to a niche luxury buyer; however, as New Gurgaon becomes premium, there will definitely be takers for prime plots especially near a big park (think of DLF or Sushant Lok plot values – early investors profited immensely). But selling a ₹3 Cr asset may take longer and require finding the right buyer, compared to selling a ₹60L flat which has a wider market.

Which Project is Best Suited for You?

Every project shines for a different audience. Here’s a quick guide on who might prefer which option:

  • Choose Roots Courtyard 2 if you value independent living and long-term investment. It’s best for people who want to build their dream home to their own design, or those who plan to develop floors and perhaps house extended family or sell units. It requires a high budget now, but rewards you with a premium community and land ownership. Great for end-users who want a bungalow lifestyle or investors eyeing sizable appreciation. Small families can also consider it if they aspire to expand their home (e.g., add floors as family grows). Keep in mind the longer wait (possession 2028) – it’s for those with a forward-looking plan.
  • Choose Signature Global Roselia (or Signature Global’s affordable flats) if you are a budget-conscious buyer or a first-time homeowner. Roselia is already a lived-in society, so end-users can move in right away and enjoy a functional community with schools and shops nearby. It’s ideal for small families or couples – a 2 BHK here is affordable (resale ~₹55L) and sufficient for 3-4 people. Also, if you prefer a ready home rather than waiting years, this is a safe choice. Investors buying resale might find limited rapid gains ahead, but end-use value is solid (why pay hefty rent when you can pay an EMI for your own flat?).
  • Choose MRG The Balcony if you want a newer construction affordable flat with slightly more modern amenities. It’s suitable for end-users who missed out on earlier projects – units here (possession 2024) are brand new, and the society boasts features like a swimming pool and has an eco-friendly reputation. A small family will find it comfortable. The price might be a tad higher than Roselia’s due to it being newer and slightly larger unit size. For investors, the major price jump has already occurred; but as an end-user, you get a brand new home in a developing area that will only get better as more infrastructure and offices come up around New Gurgaon.
  • Choose ROF Ambliss if you are an investor with a limited budget aiming to get into the property market via the affordable housing route, or if you’re an end-user who can’t afford current resale prices and is okay to wait. Since it’s under construction, you’d be applying and hoping to get an allotment. The upside: very low entry cost (pay in stages, total ~₹25L for 2BHK). The downside: you will have to wait until ~2025 for possession and then 5-year lock-in (for investors). End-users who get allotted here will get a brand new flat at an unbeatable price – but location Sector 78 is a bit further off from 95A, though still in New Gurgaon region. This is ideal for those with very tight budgets – it’s the only way to own a home in Gurgaon under ₹30L nowadays. It’s not as prime a location as 95A, but the project connects to Southern Periphery Road and NH8 fairly well.

In summary, Roots Courtyard 2 vs Affordable Flats comes down to luxury vs budget, independence vs community apartment living, and high investment vs value buying. An end-user with a mid-range budget will lean towards Signature Global or MRG’s ready flats – they’re hassle-free and sufficient. An investor or luxury-seeking family might gravitate to the grandeur of Roots Courtyard 2 for the promise it holds in the coming years.

Conclusion

Sector 95A Gurugram and its vicinity offer something for everyone – from modest 2 BHK apartments for first-home buyers to high-end plotted estates for those planning a bespoke residence. Roots Courtyard 2 distinguishes itself with a premium plotted concept, albeit at a much higher price point, delivering long-term value and a chance to be part of an exclusive community. Meanwhile, projects like Signature Global Roselia, MRG The Balcony, and ROF Ambliss fulfill the dream of affordable ownership and cater well to small families and individuals starting out.

When comparing these options, consider your budget, timeline, and lifestyle needs. Do you want a ready home now, or are you investing for tomorrow? Are you content with a cozy flat and shared amenities, or do you envision a spacious independent home with your own garden and parking? By weighing these factors – and the data on location, price, and facilities we’ve discussed – you can make an informed decision. Gurugram’s New Gurgaon region is on an upswing, so whichever route you choose, you’ll be part of a growing, well-connected community in the next few years.
