About Delhi Cantonment

Delhi Cantonment, often called Delhi Cantt, is a unique area in Delhi. It is primarily inhabited by Indian Army personnel and their families. While it is a major military base, it also includes civilian communities. The area is home to important defence establishments, including the Indian Army Headquarters for the Delhi Area, the Army Hospital, and the Directorate of General Defence Estates. As a result, much of the housing is designated for military personnel. Delhi Cantonment PIN code is 110010.

Residents have access to the Army Golf Course, the Defence Services Officers Institute, and several Air Force and Army Public Schools. Notable landmarks in the area include the historic St. Martin's Church, the Delhi War Cemetery, and the Brar Square Crematorium. Delhi Cantonment is located along National Highway 48 and is well-connected to the rest of the city, with the Airport Express Line and Pink Line metro stations.

Living in Delhi Cantt is a blessing. It's the safest and greenest part of Delhi. The community is strong, the parks are beautiful, and everything is so organised. With schools like Army Public School and hospitals like the Army Hospital right here.

The area has limited private properties. You may not earn profits in the short term. You invest for the prestige, the green environment, and the stable demand. It's an asset that holds its value.

I am running a shop in the Cantonment area for decades. The business is steady. It is a very organised and safe place to run a commercial establishment.

I rented a floor in a private pocket here. The peace and clean air are great. My commute via Dhaula Kuan is easy. The only thing is, the area shuts down early.

I stay here because it's quiet for studying, and the Durgabai Deshmukh South Campus metro station is easily accessible from my place. No cool cafes or late-night hangouts. It feels a bit isolated from the rest of the city.
