Five things to be aware of when Yamuna Expressway Authority begins selling over 350 plots close to Noida airport

These residential plots are close to the Yamuna Expressway and the Noida International Airport. Aug 5, 2024, is the deadline for applications to the program. An allotment of plots will take place via a lucky draw on Sep 20, 2024. 

The Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA), encouraged by the success of its residential plots scheme last year, has once again put over 350 residential plots in four different sectors near the future Noida International Airport up for sale, according to officials with knowledge of the situation. 

The Authority offers approximately 361 plots in seven different sizes as part of the scheme. August 5 is the deadline for registering for the plot scheme. Plots will be distributed using a luck draw in September. 

“Demand has increased across all market segments–residential, commercial, and industrial– as the Noida airport in Jewar is anticipated to commence operations shortly. Because of how quickly the area is developing, people want to live and invest close to the airport. The Authority has introduced a residential construction plot scheme to profit from these variables. The last day to register for the program is August 5, and registrations have already started,” YEIDA CEO Arun Vir Singh stated. 

YEIDA conducted a draw for 1,184 residential plots across three sectors earlier in October 2023. For the 1,184 residential plots in YEIDA sectors 16, 17, and 20, as many as 1.4 lakh people submitted applications. 

Plot count and location 

The scheme document states that these 361 plots are spread across four distinct sectors: 16, 18, 20, and 22D. The Yamuna Expressway, which links Greater Noida with the historic towns of Agra and Mathura, is next to these plots. The proposed Film City, the Eastern Peripheral Expressway (EPE), and the future Noida International Airport are all close to these plots. 

Sizes 

The residential plots scheme has seven distinct categories in which the plots are available. Along with larger residential plots ranging in size from 500 to 4,000 square meters, the scheme also features mid-size residential plots measuring 120 and 200 square meters. The offerings from the YEIDA include 84 200-square-meter plots, 77 162-square-meter plots, three 200-square-meter plots, and eight 4000-square-meter plots. The plan provides the highest number of residential plots –131—in the 300 square meter range. 

The scheme document states that these residential plots will cost Rs 25,900 per square meter. The 162-square-meter plot will cost roughly Rs 41.95 lakh, while the 120-square-meter plot is the smallest and will cost Rs 31.08 lakh. The approximate costs of the 200-square-meter, 300-square-meter, and 500-square-meter mid-size plots are Rs 51.8 lakh, Rs 77.7 lakh, and Rs 1.29 crore, respectively.

According to the document, the price of the large plots, which measure 1000 and 4000 sqm, respectively, will be approximately Rs 2.59 crore and Rs 10.36 core, excluding taxes and preferred location fees. The Yamuna Expressway Authority hopes to allocate these residential plots for a total revenue collection of Rs 343.04 crore. 

How will these stories be divided up? 

According to officials, a lucky draw will be held on September 20, 2024, to determine the distribution of these residential plots. Interested parties may pay a fee of Rs 600 to download the application form and brochure from Authrotiy’s website, www.yamunaexpresswayauthority.com

Payment schedules

According to officials, the Authority has implemented three payment plans to facilitate payment plans to ease the payment process for successful allottees. In option one, the entire premium — including the registration fee— must be paid in full upfront within 60 days of the allotment letter’s issuance date. 

Option two stipulates that half of the premium, including the registration fee, must be paid within 60 days of the allotment letter’s issuance date. According to the YEIDA scheme document, the remaining 50% must be paid in two equal half-yearly installments, which are calculated starting on the 61st day after the date of allocation, and interest is calculated at the rate of 10% annually. 

Option three requires allottees to pay thirty percent of the total premium within sixty days of the allotment letter’s date of issue. The remaining 70% must be paid in ten equal half-yearly installments, with 10% interest per year, starting on the 61st day after the date of allotment.
