Synopsis– The Adani group’s Manorview Developers is assigned as the constructor for the Paytm’s IT and IT-Enabled Services (ITES) complex , this article is going to highlight how the coming of this project will trigger an urban transformation, especially in Noida’s Sector 159 real estate.
The announcement of the construction of a major IT and IT-Enabled Services (ITES) complex for Paytm by Adani Group’s Manorview Developers as the constructor, in Sector 159, Noida, represents a seismic event, not only for the two businesses involved, but for the entire Noida Property market. This tech hub, located on a 10-acre site, is planned to not only disrupt land values, infrastructure needs, and rental dynamics but also tilt the balance of Noida as a tech ecosystem in India.
Strategic Opportunity
1. Institutional tech infrastructure: The participation of Adani as an engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contractor represents it as an institutional-grade approach towards fintech infrastructure, as it embraces the transition from nimble startups to enterprise-level development. The campus will be a tech hub and provide access to digital infrastructure in India’s most dynamic economic corridor.
2. Real Estate Secondary Effects: Institutional development will result in an appreciation in real estate value surrounding digital and IT infrastructure projects. This project is anticipated to be a catalyst for investment, affecting the commercial and residential spaces in the neighbourhoods.
Impacts on Real Estate in Noida
1. Growing Demand for IT Infrastructure-
- With the emergence of IT parks and tech centres serving as anchor points for related tech businesses, startups, and service providers that want proximity to industry leaders, like Paytm.
- Companies in fintech, cybersecurity, cloud computing, and data analytics will surely look for office space nearby and create more demand for good-quality IT infrastructure.
- Demand will come for more than just office space, also for things like co-working spaces, data centres, logistics support, and intelligent infrastructure.
2. Surge in Land Values-
- Being adjacent to a significant IT centre- especially one with trusted partners like Adani and Paytm- typically leads to a rise in the value of the land and properties.
- As we have seen along other important corridors (like Bengaluru’s Whitefield, Gurgaon’s Cyber City), land in the project node or surrounding locations will typically see price rises of 15–25% in advance of large-scale projects being developed.
- Investors and developers will be competing over what might otherwise seem like insignificant pieces of land in sectors adjacent to the project will put upward pressure on land pricing.

Rental Upside in Neighbouring Sectors
- The project is expected to trigger a spike in office rents in Sectors 150-168, and transition demand will lift both commercial and premium high-end rental segments.
- Early evidence from other IT corridor projects indicates that typically there is a rental escalation of 10-20% over a period of 2-3 years post operationalization as companies ramp up operations and employees need local accommodation.
- Demand from branded offerings in the commercial property market – especially office parks with smart amenities and great transport and access – is anticipated to surge.
Noida Will be Elevated on the Technology Real Estate Map of India
- With this project, Noida is positioning itself as a destination for tech-driven investment makers in 2025 alongside Bengaluru, Hyderabad, and Gurgaon.
- Smart infrastructure such as metro / expressway to Yamuna Express Way and Noida International Airport are all priming Noida to be a digital leader.
- The institutional investment by groups like Adani should also assure global investors that Noida is a viable option, whether they are multinational or new-age startups.
More Benefits for Noida
1. Socio-Economic Upsides-
- Large-scale IT/ITES projects create thousands of direct and indirect job opportunities, attract a talented workforce, and improve the socio-economic profile of the city.
- An increase in tech talent also increases demand for good quality housing, schools, etc., and healthcare facilities.
2. New-Generation Commercial Corridors-
- The campus will create demand for ancillary business zones, shopping centers, and hospitality businesses.
- Future infrastructure and development like Jewar Airport, the Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor, and extended metro lines will further improve the development potential of real estate in the region.
Conclusion
The upcoming Adani – Paytm IT campus in Noida is more than a campus development; it represents a change event to signify that Noida is becoming India’s next technology real estate micro-market. It will create demand for IT infrastructure, which will increase land value, increase rents, and reinforce Noida’s position as the Indian and global tech centre. This campus offers long-term financial benefit for investors, businesses, employees, and the community. As construction advances, the Indian real estate pedestrian and technology ecosystem will have a major hotspot emerging over Sector 159 – Noida.
