Laid out in 1960
Built for Officers
Planned for Armed Forces families who lost their homes at Partition. Broad streets and low density were the whole point — and they still hold. Around nine thousand people live in the entire colony.

Defence Colony
01
Why Defence Colony
A colony built for officers, and kept like one.
Five minutes on foot
The Market
Fine dining, old-guard restaurants, cafés, florists, wine shops and an art gallery — arranged around a fifteenth-century Lodhi tomb that still sits in the roundabout.
Rare in this city
Green and Quiet
Kept parks, mature trees and streets wide enough to breathe on, held together by one of Delhi’s oldest residents’ welfare associations.
