Adults above 35 in Gurugram , particularly those working in MG Road, Golf Course Road, and other urban centres , should have cardiac markers tested annually even without symptoms. Smokers, people with high blood pressure, a sedentary desk job, BMI above 25, or a first-degree relative with a heart attack before 60 face elevated risk that annual testing actively manages.
