If you are weighing up luxury property in Sector 28, Faridabad, the first thing to know is that this sector sells convenience more than spectacle. Sector 28 lies in the northern part of Faridabad along the Mathura Road corridor, and it has a Violet Line metro station named after it. For anyone who travels to Delhi often, that combination is hard to beat within Faridabad.
The premium homes here are mostly plotted: HSVP houses, newly built independent floors on older plots and a limited number of apartments in and around the neighbouring sectors. You will not find gated villa townships or tall luxury towers with large clubhouses. What you can find is a well-built, spacious floor with lift and parking a short distance from the metro. The sector suits Delhi commuters, families splitting time between Delhi and Faridabad, and parents who want children nearby on the Delhi side. This page explains what to look for and how to buy carefully.
Where Sector 28 fits in Faridabad
Faridabad’s sectors have very different personalities. The older western sectors near the Aravallis tend to be quieter and more upmarket in image, while Greater Faridabad across the canal is mainly newer high-rise housing. Sector 28 sits in between in character, a planned residential sector in the northern stretch of the city where the metro and Mathura Road dominate daily life.
The main reasons buyers end up here are practical:
- the Sector 28 metro station on the Violet Line, with Badkal Mor and Mewala Maharajpur stations close by on either side;
- a short drive to the Badarpur border and the Delhi side of Mathura Road;
- established sector markets and services that come with an older HSVP sector;
- easier access to South Delhi hospitals, such as the large hospital at Sarita Vihar, for families who prefer them.
The trade-off is that the highway brings traffic and noise. Homes deeper inside the sector, away from the main road, usually feel calmer.
Premium homes you will actually find
| Format | Typical buyer | Key strength | Key check |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rebuilt independent floor | Working couples, small families | Modern layout, lift, stilt parking | Occupation certificate, floor-wise deed |
| Older HSVP house | Larger families, investors planning a rebuild | Whole plot, flexibility | Approved plan, additions, title chain |
| Apartment in a nearby sector | Buyers wanting security and shared amenities | Managed society, backup, guards | HRERA registration, tower occupancy certificate |
| Top floor with terrace | Buyers wanting open space | Private terrace use | Terrace rights written into the deed |
The best value is usually a recently built floor in a well-run building on a calm street close to the metro. For more on floors and houses specifically, see our page on luxury houses in Sector 28.
Who buys here and what they prioritise
Buyers in Sector 28 tend to be practical. Many work in Delhi, in areas reachable by the Violet Line, and want to avoid driving in daily. Others run businesses along Mathura Road or in the industrial parts of Faridabad and want a home that balances the two cities.
NRIs and Delhi-based children buying for parents also look here, often because the metro makes visits easy without a car. These buyers usually ask about lift access, ground-floor options, nearby clinics and the reliability of the caretaker or society arrangement.
Buying from abroad or another city
If you are buying from outside Faridabad, the biggest risk is not the price but the distance. You cannot check every leak or loose fitting yourself, and small builders in plotted sectors do not always keep the same paperwork standards as large developers. Ask for a recorded video walkthrough at different times of the day, including the stairwell, the roof and the parking area.
It also helps to plan the life of the home before you buy it. Decide who will hold the keys, who will deal with electricity and water bills, and who will handle repairs when tenants or parents call. A power of attorney may be needed for registration if you cannot travel, and your lawyer should draft it carefully so it covers only what is needed. Settling these points early makes a metro-side floor in Sector 28 a far easier asset to own from a distance.
Metro, roads and daily routines
The metro is the single biggest advantage of this sector. Before you buy, walk from the home to the station at the time you would actually travel. A home a short walk away is far more useful than one that needs an auto ride each morning.
For driving, Mathura Road links you north to Badarpur and South Delhi and south through the rest of Faridabad. The Badkhal side roads lead west towards the older sectors and the Surajkund area. Evening traffic on Mathura Road can be heavy, so try the drive at rush hour before deciding.
Daily needs are generally met by sector markets and the commercial stretches along the highway. Ask neighbours about water supply, power cuts and drainage in the monsoon, since these vary by street.
Paperwork and legal checks
Faridabad property falls under Haryana’s rules. For any new project that needs it, check registration on the Haryana RERA (HRERA) website and compare the registered plans with the brochure. For resale and floors, work through these checks:
- Trace the ownership from the original HSVP allotment to the current seller.
- See the conveyance deed and confirm no HSVP or municipal dues are pending.
- Compare the building with its sanctioned plan and ask for the occupation certificate.
- Make sure a floor’s sale deed names the floor, the land share and the parking space.
- Check for existing loans, mortgages or court cases on the property.
- Have your lawyer approve the draft agreement before any token is paid.
Haryana’s rules on how many floors may be built on residential plots have changed in recent years. Confirm which approval the building relied on.
How to judge value in Sector 28
Value here is driven heavily by two things: how close the home is to the metro and how far it sits from the noise of Mathura Road. A floor that is both near the station and on a quiet internal street will usually hold up better than one that is only strong on one count.
Other factors include the age and quality of construction, the reputation of the builder, natural light, parking and whether the floor has a lift. Costs that buyers often forget include stamp duty, registration, brokerage, interiors and the deposits for utilities and maintenance.
Resale versus new, and the rental view
Because Sector 28 is an older planned sector, much of the supply is resale or rebuilt floors. New construction usually means a small builder has redeveloped one plot. Visit their older buildings and ask current owners about leaks, lift breakdowns and how quickly problems were fixed.
On rentals, metro access supports steady demand from tenants working in Delhi and Faridabad. Floors with lifts, parking and good backup rent more easily. For a wider view of the city, read our page on luxury property in Faridabad, or compare with Sector 21 if the Gurugram side matters more to you.

Frequently asked questions
Why do buyers choose Sector 28, Faridabad?
Mainly for access. Sector 28 has a Violet Line metro station that carries its name, and it sits in the northern part of Faridabad, closer to the Delhi border than most of the city. Buyers who work in Delhi, or who travel there often for family and business, find that this cuts their daily commute noticeably.
What kind of premium homes are found in Sector 28?
Expect HSVP plotted houses, independent builder floors built on older plots, and a smaller amount of apartment supply in and around the neighbouring sectors. The premium end here is about a well-built floor or house near the metro rather than large gated villa communities. Supply changes, so an advisor should confirm what is on offer at the time.
Is Sector 28 better than Sector 21 for luxury buyers?
They suit different people. Sector 21 is closer to the Aravalli road and Gurugram and has a more established upmarket image. Sector 28 is closer to the Delhi border and has its own metro station. Choose based on where you travel most often, and compare individual homes rather than sector reputations.
Which regulator covers new projects in Sector 28?
Faridabad falls under the Haryana Real Estate Regulatory Authority, so any new project large enough to need registration must be listed on the HRERA website. Check the registration number, approved plans and completion timeline there. For resale homes, the checks shift to title, the HSVP transfer chain, the occupation certificate and pending dues.
Is Sector 28 good for renting out a floor?
Metro access tends to support rental demand from people working in Delhi and along Mathura Road. Tenants look for lift access, parking and a short walk or ride to the station. Rental demand is real but not corporate in scale, so treat rental income as useful support rather than the main reason to buy.
