How Much Have Margalla Orchards Walk Prices Increased?

The second-round prices are substantially higher than the January 2026 launch rates. Depending on the selected payment option, the 5.33 Marla category is now approximately 49% to 52% more expensive, while the 8 Marla category has increased by approximately 40% to 44.5%.

Plot Size Payment Plan Previous Price New Price Increase Percentage Increase
5.33 Marla Lump Sum Rs 9.10 Crore Rs 13.583 Crore Rs 4.483 Crore 49.3%
1 Year Rs 9.60 Crore Rs 14.382 Crore Rs 4.782 Crore 49.8%
2 Years Rs 10 Crore Rs 15.181 Crore Rs 5.181 Crore 51.8%
3 Years Rs 10.50 Crore Rs 15.98 Crore Rs 5.48 Crore 52.2%
8 Marla Lump Sum Rs 14 Crore Rs 19.652 Crore Rs 5.652 Crore 40.4%
1 Year Rs 14.70 Crore Rs 20.808 Crore Rs 6.108 Crore 41.6%
2 Years Rs 15.40 Crore Rs 21.964 Crore Rs 6.564 Crore 42.6%
3 Years Rs 16 Crore Rs 23.12 Crore Rs 7.12 Crore 44.5%

10.66 Marla Price Compared With 8 Marla

One of the most notable parts of the new payment plan is the relatively small price difference between the 8 Marla and 10.66 Marla categories.

  • 8 Marla lump-sum price: Rs 19.652 Crore
  • 10.66 Marla lump-sum price: Rs 20.1535 Crore
  • Difference: Only Rs 50.15 Lakh

The 10.66 Marla plot provides approximately 33% more land but costs only around 2.55% more than the 8 Marla plot under each payment option. At the current lump-sum prices, the approximate land rate works out to:

  • 8 Marla: Approximately Rs 9.826 Lakh per square yard
  • 10.66 Marla: Approximately Rs 7.558 Lakh per square yard

This makes the 10.66 Marla category approximately 23% less expensive on a per-square-yard basis. However, applicants should examine the plot dimensions, frontage, location, shape and any applicable charges before making a final comparison.

Location of Margalla Orchards Walk

Margalla Orchards Walk is located on Main Park Road, Chak Shahzad, directly opposite COMSATS University Islamabad. The commercial area is positioned within an established education and residential corridor with connectivity through Park Road, Islamabad Expressway and Murree Road.

Margalla Orchards Walk location map

Approximate travel times from Margalla Orchards Walk include:

  • Approximately 10 minutes from Serena Hotel
  • Approximately 19 minutes from Islamabad Club
  • Approximately 21 minutes from Blue Area
  • Approximately 22 minutes from Parliament House

Actual travel times will depend on the selected route and traffic conditions.

Commercial Construction and Project Concept

Construction of Lower Ground + Ground + 5 Floors is permitted on all three plot categories, allowing a total of seven building levels. Construction remains subject to the applicable building regulations, architectural controls and approval of the building plan.

Margalla Orchards Walk is planned as a Spanish-themed, pedestrian-oriented commercial destination. Its commercial concept includes:

  • Spanish-themed commercial façades
  • Retail outlets and boutique shopping
  • Restaurants, cafés and food parks
  • Corporate and professional offices
  • Wide commercial boulevards
  • Customer and visitor parking
  • Pedestrian walkways and landscaped spaces
  • Mixed-use commercial buildings

The project is under development. The listed facilities form part of the planned commercial concept and should not be treated as completed amenities at this stage.

Current Development Status

Road formation, infrastructure work and active construction activity are visible at Margalla Orchards Walk. The scheme remains under development, and no possession date has been announced for the current booking.

The January 2026 commercial launch included an early-possession facility after payment of 40% of the plot price. That facility is not included in the currently published booking terms. It must therefore not be assumed for this round unless it appears in the allotment letter or a subsequent written policy.

  • CNIC

  • 11.76% higher on the two-year plan
  • 17.65% higher on the three-year plan

Manahil Estate Price and Investment Analysis

The revised launch prices establish a substantially higher primary-market benchmark for Margalla Orchards Walk commercial land after the first ballot and continued on-ground development.

For previous allottees, the revised prices provide a much higher official launch benchmark than the original booking rates. This increase should not be confused with a guaranteed resale profit. Actual premiums will depend on plot number, location, frontage, payment status, transfer eligibility, market demand and the urgency of the buyer or seller.

For new applicants, the strongest value comparison is between the 8 and 10.66 Marla categories. The larger category provides a considerably lower price per square yard, subject to the final plot location, dimensions, frontage and any applicable charges.

Applicants should compare:

  • Exact plot dimensions and frontage
  • Position on the commercial master plan
  • Any corner, boulevard or other location premium stated in the allotment terms
  • Construction and architectural obligations
  • Government taxes and DHA charges
  • Expected construction cost of an LG+G+5 building
  • Future rental demand and realistic completion timeline

Key Booking Conditions

  • The project is currently under development.
  • No possession date has been announced for the current booking.
  • The 40% early-possession facility from the January launch is not part of the currently published terms and should not be assumed for this booking.
  • Government taxes and applicable DHA charges are not included in the advertised sale prices.
  • The processing fee is non-refundable.
  • Late payments may attract a surcharge.
  • The allotment letter, plot location and applicable terms issued after the ballot will govern the successful booking.

Application Deadline

The last date to apply for the latest Margalla Orchards Walk commercial ballot is:

7 August 2026

Applicants should complete their application and payment well before the closing date to allow time for correction of identification, banking or document-related issues.
