Spread across 13 acres of prime land in Sector 66, SmartWorld The Edition is engineered for buyers who refuse to compromise. The project features six high-rise towers rising 40 storeys (B+G+40), housing 900 residences ranging from spacious 3 BHK+Servant homes to grand 4 BHK+Servant layouts.
The attention to finish detail is extraordinary: every home has Italian marble in living areas, rich wooden flooring in bedrooms, and a gourmet modular kitchen with premium fittings. The 11.4-foot floor-to-ceiling height creates an airiness typically found only in bespoke developments.
What truly separates The Edition from every other project in Gurgaon right now is its 1 lakh sq. ft. 7-star clubhouse — India's largest at a residential development. Within this single complex live a private mini theatre, spa and wellness centre, infinity pool, yoga deck, fine-dining restaurant, café, and dedicated business lounges. Then layer on top: every apartment gets its own private deck with a jacuzzi. That is a segment first.

Where Is the Smart Money Going?
The Dwarka Expressway corridor (Sectors 99–113) has emerged as NCR's highest-appreciating residential zone since the expressway became fully operational, offering larger carpet areas and competitive pricing. However, Golf Course Extension Road — where SmartWorld The Edition is situated — continues to command a structural premium because it sits at the epicentre of Gurugram's corporate belt.
Rental yields on Golf Course Extension Road 3 BHK units range from ₹80,000 to ₹1,50,000 per month, translating to gross yields of 4–5%. New Gurgaon price per sq. ft. across the corridor currently ranges from ₹11,000 to ₹13,000, with strong appreciation potential tied to rising circle rates and persistent demand.
For buyers with a 5-year horizon, SmartWorld The Edition offers an opportunity to buy into a RERA-registered, HARERA-approved project at pre-peak prices, in a location where capital values have historically outperformed by 15–25% by possession date.

Buyer FAQs: Luxury Apartments in Gurgaon 2026
What is the starting price of SmartWorld The Edition in 2026?
SmartWorld The Edition starts from approximately ₹6.48 crore for a 3 BHK+Servant apartment (2,945 sq. ft.) in Sector 66, Gurgaon. The project also offers 3 BHK+Servant at 3,035 sq. ft., 4 BHK+Servant at 3,505 sq. ft., and 4 BHK+Servant at 3,660 sq. ft. — at a price of ₹22,000 per sq. ft. Contact our advisory team for a current price list by unit type.
Which is the best luxury apartment project in Gurgaon for investment in 2026?
For investment purposes, SmartWorld The Edition ranks first due to its pre-possession pricing, prime Golf Course Extension Road location, RERA approval, and strong amenity package that will sustain rental demand post-possession. DLF The Camellias is a prestige address but is largely a resale market with limited appreciation runway at current valuations.
Is SmartWorld The Edition RERA registered?
Yes. SmartWorld The Edition is fully RERA-approved by HARERA (Haryana Real Estate Regulatory Authority). The RERA registration number is GGM/756/488/2023/100. This ensures all legal and construction commitments are regulated and transparent.
What is the possession date for SmartWorld The Edition?
The scheduled possession date for SmartWorld The Edition is 2029. Buyers should factor this timeline into their planning, especially if they are currently renting or need to vacate an existing property.
How does SmartWorld The Edition compare to M3M Mansion?
SmartWorld The Edition offers 3 BHK+Servant and 4 BHK+Servant configurations (2,945–3,660 sq. ft.) at ₹22,000/sq. ft., while M3M Mansion targets a similar segment on Dwarka Expressway. However, SmartWorld The Edition's 1 lakh sq. ft. 7-star clubhouse is nearly double the size of M3M Mansion's 63,000 sq. ft. facility. The Edition also includes a private deck with jacuzzi in every unit — an amenity M3M Mansion does not offer. M3M Mansion holds an advantage in earlier possession (2027–28) and location on Dwarka Expressway for airport-proximate buyers.
Which sector in Gurgaon is best for luxury apartments?
Golf Course Road and Golf Course Extension Road (Sectors 42, 54, 65, 66) are the most established and highest-value luxury residential corridors in Gurgaon. Dwarka Expressway (Sectors 99–113) is the fastest-appreciating zone. For a balance of prestige address and growth potential, Sector 66 on Golf Course Extension Road — where SmartWorld The Edition is located — currently offers the best combination.
Our Recommendation for 2026
After evaluating all five projects across price, location, amenities, developer credibility, RERA status, and investment outlook, SmartWorld The Edition emerges as the top luxury apartment choice in Gurgaon for 2026. It is the only project in this comparison that simultaneously delivers a marquee Golf Course Extension Road address, a record-setting 7-star clubhouse, private in-unit jacuzzis, HARERA approval, and a pre-appreciation entry price.
DLF The Camellias remains India's ultimate trophy address — but its price ceiling has largely been reached. M3M Mansion and Sobha Altus are solid choices for Dwarka Expressway buyers with nearer possession needs. Elan The Presidential offers aesthetic differentiation at a competitive price, but trails on developer track record.
If you are a discerning buyer who wants to live well and invest wisely, The Edition is the clearest answer the Gurgaon market has offered in years. Compare floor plans and get your price quote today →
