	With the passage of [[Delhi Development Authority\|Delhi Development Act]] in 1957, the local government assumed control of real estate development in Delhi and banned private real estate developers. As a result, DLF began acquiring land at a relatively low cost outside the area controlled by the [[Delhi Development Authority]], in the district of [[Gurgaon]], in the adjacent state of [[Haryana]]. In the mid-1970s, the company started developing ~~their~~ [[Cyber City, Gurgaon\|DLF City]] project at [[Gurgaon]]. Its plans included hotels, [[infrastructure]] and [[special economic zones]]-related development projects.

==History==

DLF's first residential project was Krishna Nagar in East Delhi, which was completed in 1949. Subsequently, the company developed 21 colonies in [[Delhi]], including [[Model Town (Delhi)|Model Town]], [[Rajouri Garden]], [[Punjabi Bagh]], [[South Extension]], [[Greater Kailash]], [[Kailash Colony]] and [[Hauz Khas]]. The passage of Delhi Development Act in 1957 was the first serious challenge to company's growth. The Act meant that the government would assume control of all real estate development activities in the city.<ref name="The story behind DLF's success">[http://www.rediff.com/money/2006/apr/20spec2.htm].</ref>

As a result, DLF decided to move beyond Delhi and focused on the suburb of [[Gurgaon]] in [[Haryana]].<ref name="Indian Army Gurgaon">{{cite news| url=http://articles.economictimes.indiatimes.com/2014-10-15/news/55059505_1_indian-army-gurgaon-dlf | work=The Times Of India | title=DLF's KP Singh: Meet the man who built Gurgaon out of nothingness | date=15 October 2014}}</ref> which had the potential for development of [https://www.dlfhomes.co.in/ residential and commercial properties]. As DLF started to acquire land under the leadership of Chairman [[Kushal Pal Singh|K.P. Singh]], Gurgaon embarked on a period of rapid growth.<ref name="Gurgaon Millennium City">([http://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-features/tp-opportunities/gurgaonmillennium-city/article2451662.ece ])</ref>

The land purchase program adopted a humane approach so that the sellers do not feel short-changed. To this effect, DLF partnered with farmers so that they also got a share in profits. DLF acquired and created a land bank and then sold plots to buyers after demarcation. The [[profit (accounting)|profits]] from the sales were subsequently shared with farmers, which encouraged more farmers to come forward and partner with DLF.<ref name="Story behind K.P. Singh">{{cite web|url=http://indiatoday.intoday.in/story/whatever-the-odds-the-incredible-story-behind-dlf-by-k.p.singh/1/160593.html|title=The trials and triumphs of K.P. Singh|website=India Today}}</ref>

A 58 crore deal was cancelled between DLF and [[Robert Vadra]] by [[Indian Administrative Service|IAS]] officer [[Ashok Khemka]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ndtv.com/cheat-sheet/58-crore-deal-between-dlf-and-robert-vadra-cancelled-by-ias-officer-ashok-khemka-501911|title=58-crore deal between DLF and Robert Vadra cancelled by IAS officer Ashok Khemka|website=ndtv.com}}</ref>
