How to Reach Aurus Mall From VIP Road
VIP Road runs through the Hengrabari belt and meets GS Road near Six Mile at one end and connects towards Zoo Road at the other. Both ends give you a short, simple run to the mall.
By car or two wheeler
- From the southern end of VIP Road, head towards Six Mile and join GS Road.
- Turn towards Dispur and continue past the Super Market area.
- Take the turning into Swahid Dilip Huzuri Path at Sarumotoria.
- Enter the mall parking directly from the approach road.
From the northern end, drive towards Zoo Road Tiniali, then Ganeshguri, then join GS Road heading towards Six Mile. Either way, plan for 10 to 20 minutes.
By app cab, auto rickshaw or bus
- App cabs such as Uber, Ola and Rapido cover the trip for roughly ₹80 to ₹180 depending on distance and surge.
- Auto rickshaws from Six Mile or Ganeshguri usually charge ₹50 to ₹100.
- Any city bus running the GS Road route towards Dispur or Khanapara will drop you within walking distance, with fares of ₹10 to ₹20.
We have run this route at different hours, and the only real variable is the GS Road stretch between Six Mile and Ganeshguri. Between 6 pm and 8 pm, that 2 km section alone can add ten minutes. Leaving VIP Road before 5:30 pm avoids almost all of it.
Is Aurus Mall Really the Nearest Mall to VIP Road?
Yes. Measured from the middle of VIP Road, Aurus Mall near VIP Road is the closest full shopping mall in Guwahati, and the gap over the GS Road cluster is meaningful rather than marginal.
Every other major mall in the city sits further west along GS Road, in the Christian Basti and Bhangagarh stretch, which means more traffic signals and heavier congestion to get there.
| Mall | Area | Approximate distance from VIP Road | Best known for |
| Aurus Mall | Sarumotoria, Dispur | 4 to 6 km | Home Centre, Max, INOX Insignia |
| City Centre | Christian Basti | 6 to 7 km | Largest brand mix, busiest food court |
| Central Mall | Christian Basti | 6 to 8 km | Cinepolis, Reliance Digital |
| The Hub | Bhangagarh | 8 to 9 km | Guwahati’s oldest mall |
The practical takeaway is simple. If you live or work along VIP Road, Hengrabari or Six Mile, Aurus is the mall you can reach and return from inside an hour. The others are an evening out.
Aurus Mall Guwahati Shops and Restaurants
Aurus Mall is best understood as a large format mall rather than a browsing mall. Its value sits in a handful of big anchor stores, not in dozens of small boutiques.
Which shops are inside?
Anchor and named stores reported at the mall include:
- Home Centre for furniture, kitchenware and home furnishing
- Lifestyle for fashion, footwear and accessories
- Max Fashion for value clothing
- Converse and other footwear outlets
- Electronics, eyewear, salon and gifting outlets across the floors
The home and furniture section is the genuine standout. Several regular visitors rate it as one of the better options in the Dispur belt for kitchenware, furnishing and household basics, which is not something the other Guwahati malls are known for.
Restaurants and cafes
Dining runs from a food court to full service restaurants on the upper floors. Names associated with the mall include:
- The Maroon Room, a Pan Asian fine dining restaurant on the fifth floor, with a cost for two around ₹1,200
- Jypsy by Rannvijay
- Barbeque Nation
- 11th Avenue Cafe Bistro
- JB’s
- Qmin cafe
- A multi cuisine food court
Be honest with your expectations here. The food court draws the most criticism in visitor reviews, with complaints about limited variety and quiet counters. The upper floor restaurants review far better than the food court does, so plan a proper sit down meal rather than a food court run.
Tenant mixes change. Confirm any specific store or restaurant before making a special trip for it.
What Are the Best Things to Do in Aurus Mall Guwahati?
The mall carries a 4.3 rating from more than 2,300 Google reviews, which places it comfortably above average for Guwahati malls despite its modest size.
Watch a film at INOX Insignia
The INOX multiplex is the single biggest draw, and the Insignia screen offers a premium format that few venues in the Northeast match. Shows run late into the night, well past the mall’s own closing time.
Take children to Boomerang
Boomerang, the indoor play and game zone, is the reason many families choose Aurus over the larger GS Road malls. There is also a small play area near the entrance. Reviewers consistently describe the mall as strong for young children and weaker for teenagers.
Shop for the home
If you are setting up a flat or a rented house anywhere between Six Mile and Khanapara, this is arguably the most efficient single stop in that part of the city.
The weekday advantage most guides miss
A recurring criticism of Aurus Mall is that it feels empty on weekdays. Read that the other way and it becomes the best reason to go.
On a weekday afternoon you get parking without circling, no queue at billing, staff attention in the anchor stores, and a cinema hall you can book a good seat in an hour before showtime. For anyone shopping with a toddler or buying furniture, that quiet is worth more than atmosphere.
Weekends and holiday evenings are a different mall entirely, and the GS Road approach tightens accordingly.
Aurus Mall Guwahati Timings, Parking and Practical Tips
The mall operates from 11:00 am to 10:00 pm, seven days a week. That is the building’s timing, and it is not the same as every tenant’s timing.
Three things worth knowing before you go:
- Individual stores may close earlier. Lifestyle, for example, has been listed closing at 9:30 pm.
- INOX runs shows well past mall closing hours, so late night film goers exit through a mall where the shops have already shut.
- If you want both shopping and a film, shop first and watch the later show, never the reverse.
Parking and access:
- On site parking is available, including a parking garage, and it is generally described as ample and well managed
- The mall lists wheelchair accessible parking, entrance and toilets
- Card, UPI and NFC payments are widely accepted
- Arcade games and a children’s play area are on site
The most common complaint after the food court concerns washroom upkeep, which visitors have flagged more than once. Nothing that ruins a trip, but worth knowing if you are visiting with small children.
Best times to visit are weekday afternoons for shopping and comfort, and weekend evenings if you specifically want a busier feel.
