The people who made it, the campus they built and the living landscape that has grown up around it.
01 · Makers of Jaypee Greens
Jaypee Greens was the first real estate venture of the Jaypee Group and India’s first golf-centric residential township. These are the visionaries, designers and builders who shaped it.
One of India’s best-known infrastructure groups, with roots in engineering and construction and interests across cement, power, hospitality and real estate. Jaypee Greens was its maiden real estate project: a 452-acre township planned around a championship golf course, with residences, a resort, a sports club and a nature park.
A civil engineer who began as a contractor and built the Jaypee Group from the ground up. His vision of a township built around a golf course became Jaypee Greens.
The Australian two-time Open champion, known as “the Great White Shark”, designed the 18-hole, par-72 signature championship course at the heart of the township.
The Canadian golf course architect designed the township’s 9-hole course, built for quicker rounds and evening play.
The architecture practice worked on the township’s villas, towers, resort cottages and park, and designed Atlantis – The Club, the integrated sports complex.
The group’s hotels arm runs the Jaypee Greens Golf & Spa Resort, the township’s resort hotel beside the Greg Norman course.

02 · About the campus
Three landmarks that give the campus its character, set among the fairways and the nature park.
About nine acres of water run through the campus: 14 lakes woven into the golf course and the crescent lake at the heart of the nature park. They shape the fairways, cool the air and give homes their long views.
The Boomerang Club is a residents’ clubhouse within the township, a place for neighbours to meet, dine and relax close to home, alongside Atlantis – The Club and the Golf Club.
The township’s resort hotel overlooks the Greg Norman course, with about 170 rooms, the Tamaya spa, restaurants, bars and an outdoor pool. It hosted the HSBC India Legends Championship in 2024 and the Kapil Dev Invitational Tour Championship in 2026.
03 · Flora and fauna
More than a quarter of a century of planting has turned former farmland into one of the greenest addresses in the National Capital Region.
The nature park of some 60 acres holds dense stands of mature trees around its crescent lake, with walking paths beneath the canopy.
Fairways grassed with Evergreen, an imported Bermuda variety, alongside lawns, avenue trees and flowering gardens between the courts and villas.
The lakes and wooded edges give shelter to water birds and garden birds, and peafowl, India’s national bird, are part of township life.
Irrigated turf, water and canopy soften the heat, so the greens stay noticeably cooler than the built-up streets beyond.
