Gulshan Group's connection to Sector 129 runs deeper than a single launch. Founded in 1989 by Late Shri Gulshan Arora, the group has developed landmark projects including Gulshan Botnia, Gulshan Bellina, Gulshan Vivante, and Gulshan Ikebana. Over 35 years, the group has grown to include more than 10 projects across the NCR region. Its strongest concentration of work sits along the Noida Expressway belt and well-connected urban zones. Within that belt, Sector 129 has been its most sustained single-address bet — first with a commercial mall, now with what will be the tallest Taj Hotel in India.
Gulshan One29 was the group's first commercial project, strategically placed adjoining the Noida-Greater Noida Expressway in Sector 129. Spanning 4.25 acres with a built-up area of 12 lakh sq ft across six floors, the mall includes food courts, a six-screen multiplex cinema, a hypermarket, a gymnasium, a banquet hall, and a rooftop restaurant. An amphitheatre and the six-screen multiplex anchor the entertainment offering. The project established Gulshan's name in this sub-market well before most other national developers had moved here, and it gave the group ground-level understanding of what the expressway catchment actually demands.
Gulshan Group has partnered with Tata Group's IHCL to develop Skyscape, a 57-storey mixed-use development in Sector 129 comprising a 150-room Taj hotel and 74 Taj-branded serviced apartments. With an investment of ₹1,000 crore and an expected revenue of ₹2,000 crore, the project is set to become India's tallest Taj Hotel and the first in Noida.
Skyscape sits on a 10,500 sq metre land parcel acquired by Gulshan Group in 2021. The hotel occupies the lower floors, while the 74 Taj-branded serviced apartments span the 17th to the 56th storey, with two apartments per floor. Each serviced apartment spans approximately 7,500 sq ft. The top floor will feature a single penthouse, which will not be offered for sale. The hotel and residential sections will have separate entrances.
The hotel component includes an all-day dining restaurant, a bar, two specialty restaurants, and an 8,000 sq ft ballroom for conferences and events. A swimming pool, gym, health club, and J Wellness Circle spa complete the hospitality amenities.
The G is RERA-registered under number UPRERAPRJ794678/09/2024, with the project collection account maintained at IndusInd Bank, Sector 137, Noida branch. The project was officially launched on 21 September 2024.
The G will be the tallest Taj Hotel in India and marks only the second Taj-branded residential project in the country, after Chennai. IHCL and Gulshan Group have joined forces to develop a prestigious Taj hotel and branded residences development in Sector 129 along the Noida Expressway, marking a significant milestone in Noida's luxury landscape.
Gulshan Nagpal, Chairman of Gulshan Group, has stated the project is aimed at creating a benchmark development for generations to come. Nagpal has also indicated the group plans to partner with Taj for similar serviced apartment projects across other micro-markets — signalling that the Sector 129 model is the template, not a one-off.
Sector 129 is a rapidly developing area along the Noida-Greater Noida Expressway. The area is well-connected through Dadri Road, the Greater Noida Expressway, Noida Extension, the Yamuna Expressway, and DND Flyway connectivity. The Sector 137 metro station on the Aqua Line is the nearest rail link, with the Sector 83 and Sector 142 stations also within reach.
The surrounding built environment reinforces Gulshan's position here. Sector 129's immediate neighbours include Sector 132, a designated commercial and institutional sector, and Sectors 133 and 134 which are part of Jaypee Wishtown, while Sector 128 is famous for its 9- and 18-hole golf course. Express Trade Towers 2 and Advant IT Park are among the corporate landmarks in the surrounding precinct. Felix Hospital and Jaypee Hospital are well-known multi-specialty hospitals near Sector 129, providing 24/7 emergency and specialized healthcare. Shriram Millennium School, Somerville International School, and DPS Sector 132 are reputed schools adjacent to the area.
The average property price for residential projects in Sector 129 is approximately ₹7,000 to ₹8,000 per sq ft. According to 99acres data, there has been a 110 percent increase in property prices in Sector 129 over the last five years. Gulshan Taj Skyscape operates in a distinct tier above this baseline — the Taj brand management, the ultra-low density of two apartments per floor, and the 7,500 sq ft floor plates place it in a category with no direct comparison in the Noida Expressway market today.
Buyers evaluating The G benefit from understanding how Gulshan operates across this corridor. Gulshan Vivante is an upscale residential project in Sector 137, Noida, along the Noida-Greater Noida Expressway. Gulshan Dynasty in Sector 144 is a luxury residential project offering 4 BHK apartments. As of mid-2025, construction on Dynasty has been largely completed, with possession for some units started in March 2025. That delivery track record on Sector 144 — a comparable expressway address — is directly relevant context for buyers assessing The G's construction timeline.
Gulshan Group has delivered over 10 million sq ft of residential and commercial space across NCR. Sector 129 sits at the most visible point of that body of work: the group's first commercial address in this micro-market, and now its most ambitious vertical.
