By Saurav Mehra Press Enclave is an established residential enclave in Saket, South Delhi. It is a genuine multi-block neighbourhood rather than simply a road name or a housing project. Delhi electoral records separately identify Press Enclave Blocks A, B, C, D, E and F in Saket, with numbered properties across each block. The locality uses the 110017 postal code and forms part of the wider Saket-Malviya Nagar residential and commercial belt.
Its biggest advantage is the combination of residential surroundings with some of South Delhi’s strongest urban infrastructure. Malviya Nagar Metro Station on the Yellow Line is generally the most convenient metro option for the Press Enclave and Saket District Centre side, while Saket Metro Station is also accessible. Press Enclave Marg itself has major hospitals and shopping destinations, including Max hospitals, DLF Avenue and the adjoining Saket District Centre retail cluster. Established schools and Delhi University colleges are also available in Saket, Malviya Nagar and Sheikh Sarai.

Metro Connectivity
Malviya Nagar Metro Station
Malviya Nagar Metro Station on the Yellow Line is generally the most practical operational station for the Press Enclave-Saket District Centre side. Current property listings in Press Enclave specifically highlight proximity to Malviya Nagar Metro, and Delhi Tourism identifies Malviya Nagar as the nearest metro station for DLF Avenue Saket on Press Enclave Road.
The Yellow Line provides direct travel towards Hauz Khas, AIIMS, INA, Central Secretariat, Rajiv Chowk, New Delhi and north Delhi, while also running south towards Saket, Qutub Minar and Gurugram.
Saket Metro Station
Saket Metro Station, also on the Yellow Line, is another useful option. The better station depends on the exact Press Enclave block and destination. For District Centre-side journeys, Malviya Nagar is often more convenient; for the southern Saket side, Saket station can be useful.
