The station is located near the headquarters of IFFCO, PowerGrid Corporation of India and RITES Limited. It is also in the vicinity of Essel Towers (residential complex) and Westin Hotel, Gurugram.

As per the Phase 3 expansion by DMRC, this station would be the terminal point of the Airport Express Line towards New Delhi Railway Station. This branch extension would benefit commuters of Old and New Gurgaon from travelling to the Airport T-3. IFFCO Chowk to T-3 station would take approximately 14 minutes while to New Delhi, it will take around 30–35 minutes. This branch is expected to be operational by 2016. Gurugram would be the first city outside New Delhi and in NCR to be connected directly with the airport.
