1 BHK rent in Gurgaon by area and type
Based on current listings on 99acres, NoBroker and Square Yards, here is what tenants are paying:
| Type / area | Monthly rent | Size |
|---|---|---|
| Basic / semi-furnished (Sohna Road, Sector 33) | ₹9,999–13,000 | 380–420 sq ft |
| Furnished society 1 BHK (Sohna Road) | ₹15,000–20,000 | 400–550 sq ft |
| Furnished, prime sectors / near Cyber City | ₹20,000–28,000 | 450–600 sq ft |
| Studio / builder-floor 1 BHK | ₹12,000–22,000 | Varies |
These are indicative ranges. Furnishing, floor, society and how close you are to the business hubs decide the final rent. Confirm the exact figure for the flat you shortlist.
Best areas for a 1 BHK on rent
Sohna Road is the value sweet spot, with societies like Breez Global Heights in Sector 33 and Pyramid Altia in Sector 70 offering 1 BHKs from around ₹10,000 to ₹15,000. If you work in Cyber City or Udyog Vihar and want a short commute, look at the older sectors closer in, though rents there run higher. Golf Course Extension and New Gurgaon give you newer buildings at mid-range rents.
Furnished vs unfurnished
A furnished 1 BHK with a bed, wardrobe, fridge and AC costs ₹4,000 to ₹8,000 more a month than a bare one. For a stay under a year, furnished is worth it. For a longer stay, an unfurnished flat plus your own basics usually saves money over time.
What you pay beyond rent
Expect a deposit of one to three months, society maintenance of ₹1,500 to ₹4,000 a month, and brokerage of about one month if you use an agent. On owner-direct platforms you can skip the brokerage. Always confirm whether maintenance is bundled into the quoted rent.
Renting smart on a budget
- Look at owner-direct listings to dodge brokerage on a small flat where the fee stings more.
- Check water supply, power backup and the actual walk to the metro or your bus stop.
- Get the rent agreement made and registered, and read the notice period.
- Take dated photos of the flat's condition at move-in to protect your deposit.

Who rents 1 BHKs here, and the commute
Most 1 BHK tenants in Gurgaon are working professionals, young couples and people on short company postings. The priority is usually a short, predictable commute to Cyber City, Udyog Vihar, Golf Course Road or the IMT Manesar belt. That is why Sohna Road works so well: it is affordable and still connects reasonably to the main office hubs.
Before you pick a flat, test the actual commute at office hours, not the map estimate. Check the nearest metro or Rapid Metro stop, the cab availability early morning and late evening, and whether the society gate is a five-minute walk or a fifteen-minute one from the main road. For a small flat you will live in daily, the commute and the walk to transport matter more than an extra amenity you rarely use. A slightly higher rent that saves you an hour of travel a day is usually money well spent.
