A 3 BHK at DLF The Crest is currently changing hands in the ₹16.5-18 crore range on a unit of roughly 2,787 sq ft. Do the arithmetic and that works out to somewhere between ₹59,000 and ₹65,000 per sq ft. But the project’s own quarterly price-trend series — the number portals use to plot appreciation — puts average pricing at ₹53,150 to ₹54,100 per sq ft for Q2 2026. Those two figures do not agree, and a buyer who quotes only one of them to a seller, or accepts only one from a broker, is working with an incomplete picture.
This is the full 2026 price table for DLF The Crest, an explanation of why the per-unit and per-sq-ft numbers diverge, and how payment actually works on a project where every transaction is resale. For the investment case behind these numbers, see our DLF The Crest investment analysis; for the honest trade-offs, see DLF The Crest pros and cons.
| Configuration | Approx. size | Indicative price (2026) | Implied ₹/sq ft |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 BHK | 2,349–2,400 sq ft | Not consistently disclosed; treat as below the 3 BHK band | Ask Gurgaon Floors for current listings |
| 3 BHK | 2,644–2,787 sq ft | ₹16.5 crore – ₹18 crore | ~₹59,000–65,000/sq ft |
| 4 BHK | 3,081 sq ft and up | ₹19.5 crore – ₹24 crore | ~₹63,000–78,000/sq ft on the smaller end of this band; lower on the largest penthouse-format units |
Separately, the quarterly price-trend series that portals use to chart appreciation shows average pricing moving from ₹53,150 to ₹54,100 per sq ft during Q2 2026 — a rise of about 1.79% for the quarter. That series is built from a broader transaction sample across floors, towers and views, which is one reason it can sit below the price/sq ft implied by any single listed unit. A ground-facing lower floor and a golf-facing high floor in the same tower do not sell at the same rate, and the trend line smooths across all of them.
One further complication: some listing portals still display a base sale price (BSP) figure of roughly ₹45,000 per sq ft for DLF The Crest. That number is materially below both the transaction-implied range and the quarterly trend series, and it reads as a stale, pre-appreciation marketing figure rather than a current rate. Don’t anchor a negotiation to it without checking a live listing or the current trend series first.
Three things are happening at once. First, DLF The Crest has been complete and occupied since around 2018, so every transaction is a private resale between individual owners rather than a builder selling fresh inventory at one published rate — pricing is naturally more scattered than on a project still in builder-controlled primary sales. Second, the project spans six towers and 32 floors, and floor-and-view premiums at this address are real: golf-facing units on higher floors in the more sought-after towers can command a meaningfully higher rate than a lower-floor, road-facing unit of the same configuration. Third, portal-reported unit sizes for DLF The Crest vary — some list the 4 BHK ceiling at just over 3,000 sq ft, others push it to 6,221 sq ft for penthouse-format units — and a wider size band naturally produces a wider price/sq ft spread when crore figures are divided by size.
The practical takeaway: treat the ₹53,150–54,100/sq ft trend figure as a citywide-style average for the project, and the ₹59,000–78,000/sq ft implied range as what specific listed units are actually asking. Neither is wrong; they’re measuring slightly different things. Before you make an offer, ask your broker for the actual asking rate on the specific tower and floor you’re considering, not the trend-line number.
| Project | Indicative price range | Positioning |
|---|---|---|
| DLF The Crest | ₹16.5 Cr – ₹24 Cr | Most accessible entry point into the DLF Phase 5 ecosystem |
| DLF Aralias | ₹25 Cr – ₹45 Cr | Original golf-facing address, see our DLF Aralias price guide |
| DLF The Magnolias | ₹35 Cr – ₹70 Cr | Low-density, larger format; see our DLF Magnolias price guide |
| DLF Camellias | ₹72.9 Cr – ₹99 Cr | Gurugram’s most exclusive address; see our DLF Camellias price guide |
The Crest’s price gap against its Phase 5 stablemates is the whole reason it exists as a distinct address in brokers’ conversations — see our DLF Magnolias vs DLF The Crest comparison for a direct head-to-head, or our wider Golf Course Road HNI buyer’s guide for how it fits into the corridor as a whole.
Because DLF The Crest has been fully delivered since roughly 2018, there is no construction-linked payment plan, no builder subvention scheme, and no fresh booking to make. Every transaction is a private resale between an individual seller and buyer, and the payment structure looks like a standard high-value resale rather than a builder’s staged CLP:
If a loan is involved, the lender will conduct its own valuation and title check before disbursing funds directly to the seller (or, more commonly at this ticket size, to clear any existing loan the seller may have on the unit first). Because this is resale, GST does not apply — that’s a real saving compared with a fresh under-construction booking elsewhere, and one of the arguments in favour of resale addresses like The Crest that we cover in more depth in the investment analysis linked above.
Two figures are both in circulation: a quarterly trend series showing ₹53,150-54,100 per sq ft for Q2 2026, and an implied rate of roughly ₹59,000-78,000 per sq ft when you divide specific listed unit prices by their advertised size. Ask your broker for the live asking rate on the exact tower and floor you’re considering rather than relying on either average alone.
No. The project has been complete and occupied since around 2018, so there is no builder construction-linked payment plan. Every sale is a private resale, structured as a token payment, a due-diligence window, and a balance payment at registration — closer to a standard resale transaction than a fresh-launch payment schedule.
The 3 BHK, at roughly 2,644-2,787 sq ft, is the lowest-ticket configuration with disclosed pricing, running approximately ₹16.5-18 crore. It’s also the most actively traded configuration on the resale market, according to broker commentary on transaction volumes.
No. GST applies to under-construction bookings, not to resale of a completed, occupied property. Since every DLF The Crest transaction today is a resale, buyers pay stamp duty and registration charges instead of GST — a meaningful saving over a fresh under-construction purchase of similar value.
Because it’s a resale-only, six-tower, 32-floor project, pricing varies by floor, view and tower in a way that a single builder-set rate never would. Some portals also still display an outdated base sale price figure near ₹45,000 per sq ft, which is well below current transaction levels and should not be used as a negotiating anchor.
Every figure above is drawn from public listings and portal trend data as of mid-2026 and should be treated as indicative — DLF Phase 5 resale pricing moves tower by tower and floor by floor.
