Location and neighbourhood

South Gandhinagar & GIFT City form the city's southern edge, a corridor along the Ahmedabad road. This area includes the residential and commercial pockets of Sargasan, Kudasan, Raysan and Infocity, plus Koba near the airport side. GIFT City, India's first International Financial Services Centre, sits by the Sabarmati river. The grid of numbered sectors gives way to newer developments here. First-time visitors find this zone convenient for its proximity to the airport and the main highway. The landscape mixes modern office towers with green belts and riverside open spaces. The planned layout makes navigation straightforward for those new to the city.

This part of Gandhinagar feels less dense than the older sectors, with wider roads and newer infrastructure. The Sabarmati riverfront provides a natural boundary. GIFT City's skyline stands out with its glass-and-steel buildings. The area is still growing, so some plots remain undeveloped. For a first-time visitor, the contrast between the quiet residential streets and the busy highway corridor is noticeable. The riverfront and nearby parks offer a break from the urban setting. The location works well as a base for exploring both Gandhinagar and northern Ahmedabad.

The Ahmedabad Metro extension serves this area with stations at Infocity and Sector-1, among others. Check the current service before travel, as phases open gradually. Auto-rickshaws and app-based taxis are the main options for local trips. The wide, tree-lined roads make cycling feasible in the cooler months.
