Is Gillco Meraqui a Good Investment?

August 17, 2026

Buying at ₹3-5 crore is a serious commitment, whether it’s for personal use or as an investment. Rather than a generic “why you should invest” pitch, here’s a straightforward look at the actual numbers and factors that matter when evaluating Gillco Meraqui specifically.

The pricing structure

Meraqui is currently priced at a flat ₹11,500 per sq.ft. across all configurations:

| Size | Configuration | Price |
|—|—|—|
| 3,200 sq.ft. | 3+1 BHK | ₹3.68 Cr |
| 3,500 sq.ft. | 3+1 BHK (larger layout) | ₹4.03 Cr |
| 4,500 sq.ft. | 4+1 BHK | ₹5.18 Cr |

The flat rate across sizes is worth noting specifically — many projects increase the per-sq.ft. rate as unit size grows, which effectively penalizes buyers wanting more space. Meraqui doesn’t do this, which matters if you’re comparing total cost against carpet area rather than just headline pricing.

Location and connectivity fundamentals

Meraqui sits on PR-7 Airport Road in Sector 126, Mohali — a corridor that’s seen sustained infrastructure and commercial development, driven substantially by proximity to Mohali International Airport. Location fundamentals that typically support long-term value in this corridor include:

  • Direct airport-road connectivity, relevant for both NRI buyers and frequent business travelers
  • Ongoing commercial and lifestyle development along the same stretch
  • GMADA-planned sector infrastructure in Sector 126

As with any location-driven investment thesis, infrastructure timelines can shift — it’s worth verifying current road and metro/transit development status independently rather than relying solely on developer marketing material.

Construction status: a genuine signal, not just a sales point

Meraqui broke ground in May 2026 after receiving statutory approvals. As of the current phase, roughly 250 of 444 total residences have been opened for sale, with an expected completion timeline of approximately four years, in line with RERA guidelines. Active, visible construction is one of the more reliable indicators that a project is progressing on a real timeline rather than an indefinitely delayed paper launch.

Developer track record as a risk factor

Gillco Group has operated since 2001, with 17+ delivered projects, 43 million+ sq.ft. built, and 6,000+ families housed. For an investment at this ticket size, developer delivery history is one of the more important risk factors to weigh — a strong history reduces (though doesn’t eliminate) possession-delay risk relative to newer or first-time developers in the same corridor.

Floor density as a long-term value factor

Meraqui’s cap of three residences per floor across all six towers is structurally harder for competing projects to replicate once built out, which can support resale and rental demand over time relative to denser developments nearby.

Questions worth asking before committing

Regardless of how compelling a project looks on paper, it’s worth independently verifying:

  • Current RERA registration number and status on the Punjab RERA portal
  • The builder-buyer agreement’s possession timeline and any compensation clauses for delays
  • Confirmation of clear land title and encumbrance status
  • Actual floor-facing and tower positioning for your specific unit, not just the general project layout

The honest summary

Meraqui’s investment case rests on four factors: a genuinely low-density layout, a location with real infrastructure momentum, an established and financially credible developer, and pricing that stays consistent across unit sizes. None of that guarantees returns — no property investment does — but it’s a more substantive basis for a decision than amenity lists or marketing language alone.
