- Vastrapur — Home to IIM Ahmedabad, Vastrapur Lake, and a mix of old bungalows and new towers.
- Thaltej — Premium corridor with gated communities and international schools. See our Thaltej buying guide.
- Satellite (Jodhpur) — Established mid-premium area. Compare with Bodakdev in our Bodakdev vs Satellite guide.
- Gota — More affordable west-side option with newer construction. Popular with renters. See renting in Gota.
- SG Highway — Commercial and residential mix along the expressway.

Property context
Price bands vary significantly within the zone. Bodakdev and Thaltej command premium rates for 3BHK apartments. Gota and Chandlodiya offer lower entry points with newer stock. Always evaluate the specific society — two buildings on the same road can differ sharply in maintenance quality and resale value.
