A proposed change to the Mohali Master Plan could reshape land use — and property demand — along the Mohali–Kharar belt. Here’s what’s on the table, and why local buyers should pay attention.


The proposal
As reported by Hindustan Times (July 2026), the Punjab government has proposed amending the Mohali Master Plan to bring about 54 acres at Manauli village — currently an institutional zone — under an industrial and warehouse zone. A draft land-use plan has been prepared, and objections and suggestions have been invited from the public before the change is finalised.
Officials from the Town & Country Planning department said the land is not well suited to its present institutional use. Nearby Sectors 81 and 83 already host major institutes such as IISER and ISB, while GMADA’s IT City in Sector 82 has land set aside for institutions, universities and hospitals. “The land is being freed up for a use better suited to it,” officials noted. The move is part of a wider plan to open up industrial and commercial activity around the Gharuan belt and neighbouring villages.
Why Mohali–Kharar buyers should watch this
A new industrial and warehouse hub near Manauli could mean fresh employment, better infrastructure and rising interest in nearby residential pockets — Kharar, Kurali, Gharuan and the Sector 81–83 stretch. Historically, land-use shifts that bring jobs closer tend to lift both rents and prices across the surrounding residential belt over the following years.
