Property on Kanpur Road Lucknow: Plots, Shops and the Expressway (2026)
Property on Kanpur Road, Lucknow in 2026: JBBR Kanvas plots from ₹55.92 lakh, Sarojini Nagar shops from ₹40.21 lakh, and what the new Lucknow-Kanpur Expressway does and does not change.
By Gagan Tondon, Gagan Tondon Real Estate, Lucknow
Property on Kanpur Road, Lucknow, on our listings in 2026 means three things: RERA-registered plots at JBBR Kanvas from ₹55.92 lakh, shops and office suites in two Sarojini Nagar commercial buildings from ₹40.21 lakh, and a ready LDA flat. The 63 km, six-lane Lucknow-Kanpur Expressway, inaugurated on 13 July 2026, is the big change on this side of the city. Whether a plot or a shop suits you depends on whether you want land to build on or a unit to rent out.
Every price below is the developer's quoted base price from our listings, before stamp duty, registration and any GST. Areas are stated with their type: plot area for plots, super built-up area for the commercial units.
What is on Kanpur Road in 2026?
Kanpur Road (NH-27) runs south-west from the city past Sarojini Nagar and the airport towards Unnao and Kanpur. On our listings the corridor has one plotted township, two commercial projects under construction and one government flat.

The Lucknow-Kanpur Expressway: what is confirmed
The 63 km, six-lane Lucknow-Kanpur Expressway was inaugurated on 13 July 2026 by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, Road Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari and Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, at a ceremony at kilometre 49 in Unnao (News On AIR). The same report gives a design speed of up to 120 km/h, a car toll of ₹275, no entry for two-wheelers, and an expected journey of 35 to 45 minutes between the two cities. Construction World describes it as an access-controlled corridor running parallel to the existing highway.
Two points matter for a buyer:
It is a separate road from NH-27. The old highway still carries local traffic past Sarojini Nagar. An access-controlled expressway can only be joined at its interchanges, so a site next to NH-27 is not automatically next to an expressway entry.
Opening is recent. Reports differ on the project cost, and Swarajya reported surface damage near Korari in Unnao within weeks of the opening, which NHAI said was repaired. Judge the road by how your own trips change over the coming months, not by the brochure.

Plots on Kanpur Road: JBBR Kanvas
JBBR Kanvas is a plotted township at Junabganj on the Lucknow-Kanpur Road, registered with UP RERA as UPRERAPRJ977409/07/2026 (Phase 1). The developer sells at a single fixed rate of ₹5,499 per sq ft of plot area, so the price of a plot is simply its size times that rate.
About 500 metres from NH-27, and fifteen minutes from the airport and from Amausi metro station.
15% of the township set aside as landscaped green zones.
Gated, with a guard room, CCTV, a children's play area, a badminton court and a senior citizens' sit-out.
Possession of plots from February 2031.
These are the developer's figures, and the prices are land cost only. Ask in writing what else is charged at registry, such as development, external electrification, club or maintenance charges, before you compare Kanvas with any other plot. Our guide to residential plots in Lucknow sets out the checks for a plotted township.
What a Kanvas plot costs at registry
Stamp duty and registration on a plot follow the same Uttar Pradesh rates as on a flat: 7% duty for a man, 6% for a woman when the value is up to ₹1 crore, and 1% registration with no cap. All Kanvas plots are under ₹1 crore, so the women's rate applies to every one of them.
Plot
Price
Stamp duty, man (7%)
Stamp duty, woman (6%)
Registration (1%)
Type B, 1,017 sq ft
₹55.92 lakh
₹3.91 lakh
₹3.36 lakh
₹55,920
Type A, 1,200 sq ft

The table assumes the deed value is the quoted price and is above the circle rate value; duty is charged on whichever is higher. Every plot here is above ₹50 lakh, so the buyer also deducts 1% TDS under section 393(1) of the Income-tax Act, 2025 from the payment to the seller. Our stamp duty guide explains each charge.
Commercial property in Sarojini Nagar
Sarojini Nagar sits on Kanpur Road near the airport. Two commercial projects on our listings are filed under it.
Marigold Kailasha Awadh
Marigold Kailasha Awadh is a single building of 247 units on 2 acres, ground plus five storeys by the developer's description, on the Lucknow-Kanpur highway. The developer lists the airport 1.5 km away and the Outer Ring Road (Kisan Path) 1 km away. Possession is listed for September 2028.
The rates divide the quoted price by the super built-up area, assuming the smallest unit carries the lowest price. Super built-up area in a commercial building includes a large share of corridors, lifts and common space, so ask for each unit's carpet area before you compare it with anything else.
Kanak Felix Imperial
Kanak Felix Imperial is listed under Sarojini Nagar on our site, while the developer gives its address as IT Park-2, Sector-D, Sushant Golf City. Check the location on a map before you treat it as a Kanpur Road property. It has 122 units on 1.5 acres: retail shops of 85 to 450 sq ft, food court and anchor retail of 450 to 850 sq ft, and offices of 650 to 1,444 sq ft, all super built-up area. Prices are on request and possession is listed for December 2028.
Tip: For a shop, the floor matters as much as the size. Ask which units face the main road, where the escalators and lifts land, and where the food court entrance is, then stand at that spot in the evening before you book.
Plots vs commercial on Kanpur Road
A plot and a shop at about the same price are very different purchases. Take the cheapest of each: a 1,017 sq ft Kanvas plot at ₹55.92 lakh and a 176 sq ft Kailasha Awadh shop at ₹40.21 lakh.

A plot suits a buyer who wants to build a house within a few years, or who is happy to hold land with no income. A shop suits a buyer who wants rent and accepts the risk that a new building's footfall is not yet proven. We do not publish rents or yields for these buildings, because no verified figure exists; our guide to commercial property in Lucknow shows how to work the yield out yourself.

The ready option: LDA Sunrise (Mrigshira) Apartment
For a family that needs to move in now, LDA's Sunrise (Mrigshira) Apartment on Kanpur Road lists a ready 2 BHK of 1,008 sq ft. The listing does not say whether that is carpet or super built-up area, and the price is on request, so ask LDA for both in writing. Our ready to move flats guide covers what to check on a government flat.
What to check before you buy on Kanpur Road
The RERA page. Search the number on up-rera.in and match the promoter, the land and the phase to the brochure.
The exact location. Pin the plot or building on a map. Note the distance to the nearest expressway interchange, not just to NH-27.
Land use. For a shop, confirm the land is approved for commercial use and the building plan is sanctioned for the floor you are buying on.
All charges. Get a written cost sheet: development charges on a plot, GST, parking and maintenance deposits on a shop.
Carpet area of commercial units. A super built-up figure alone does not tell you how much usable floor you get.
Your exit. Decide who would buy from you in ten years. Our selling service can tell you what is moving in the area today.

For a shop bought under construction in a project that is not mainly residential, such as a standalone commercial building, the GST Council's FAQ gives an effective rate of 12% with input tax credit for the developer. On a ₹40.21 lakh Kailasha Awadh shop that would be ₹4,82,520. Confirm the figure on the developer's cost sheet.
Should I buy a plot or a shop on Kanpur Road?
+
Buy a plot if you plan to build a home or are content to hold land with no income; it has no building to maintain. Buy a shop if you want rent and accept that a new building's footfall is unproven and that shops can stay empty between tenants. Work out the full cost of each, including GST and duties, before deciding.
