In Sanskrit, Saket means a place said to be very close to Heaven, thus a place where God resides. Saket was the ancient name of the city of Ayodhya, an important Hindu religious place, said to be the place of residence for Lord Rama. Saket was the name of the famous epic Hindi poetic work of Maithili Sharan Gupt, an account of the Ramayana through the eyes of Urmila, a lesser known character. The Saket market also has many international chain restaurants, such as McDonald's, Ruby Tuesday's, Subway, and many bars and lounges, such as T'Zers and Voda.

Saket is also an affluent area located in south Delhi, named after the city of Ayodhya.
