Tonk Road
Jaipur’s great southern artery, from the central Lal Kothi area out to Sitapura and beyond.
Price figure is the average asking price on public property portals at the time of writing, across the whole corridor. It varies greatly by stretch.
One road, several very different markets
“Tonk Road” covers everything from central apartments a few minutes from C Scheme to affordable flats and plots near the Sitapura industrial area. This guide breaks the corridor into stretches, so you can see which part fits your budget and lifestyle, and what to check before you buy.
Location and connectivity
One of the most important roads in the city, linking the centre with the airport side and the southern highway.
Life along Tonk Road
Busy, commercial and well served, with jobs at both ends.
Showrooms, hotels, offices and banks line much of the road. At the southern end, Sitapura Industrial Area and EPIP are major employers in IT, jewellery and garments.
SMS Hospital is close to the central end, and Mahatma Gandhi Medical College and Hospital is in Sitapura’s institutional area at the southern end.
Schools and colleges are spread along the corridor, from the central stretch near the University of Rajasthan to the institutional area in Sitapura.

What to check before buying on Tonk Road
On a corridor this varied, the details of the exact site matter most.
Compare prices only with properties on the same stretch, not the corridor as a whole.
For new projects, confirm the RERA number. For plots, confirm JDA approval and land conversion.
Frontage helps shops but hurts homes. Visit at peak hours to judge noise and access.
Check that the land use matches what you plan to do, especially for commercial property.
Follow our guide on verifying property ownership.
Stamp duty is charged on the higher of DLC or agreement value. See the hidden costs of buying property.
