YEIDA launches 973 residential plots
Jewar airport boosts property demand
Expressway corridor sees rapid infrastructure growth
To meet the growing demand for accommodation near the Noida International Airport, the Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) plans to launch a scheme offering residential plots of varying sizes across sectors in proximity to the airport.
The scheme offers a total of 973 residential plots situated across sectors 15-C, 18, and 24. These sectors are located quite close to the newly inaugurated international airport. This is expected to transform the region into an economic and infrastructure hub. According to a Colliers report, titled 'Infrastructure & Mega Projects: The Key Enablers of Urban Expansion in India', the land prices near the Jewar township are expected to grow by nearly 50 per cent by 2030.
"The Yamuna Expressway corridor has quietly become one of the most data-backed bets in the Delhi-National Capital Region (Delhi-NCR) market. Appreciation along this stretch has run close to 95 per cent over the past few cycles, not because of sentiment, but because the infrastructure case is real and compounding," says Mohit Mittal, CEO, MORES.
What Makes This Scheme Compelling?
Homebuyers and investors find this scheme compelling as the Yamuna Expressway corridor is now developed with a more integrated infrastructure. The 165 km expressway connects Delhi-NCR with Agra, with close proximity to Noida, Greater Noida, Ghaziabad and Delhi. This gives a locational advantage to the interested buyers.
“The disparity in property prices is so significant that homebuyers and investors who missed out on investment opportunities in Gurgaon now envision a promising future encompassing education, employment, and lifestyle around Noida, Greater Noida and Faridabad. While the full realization of modern transport infrastructure, such as the Metro and Rapid Rail, may take some time, investing at this juncture is certain to ensure superior returns in the future,” adds Reetesh Singh, MD, Realistic Advisory & Consultancy.
YEIDA is providing a holistic development model, since the Noida International Airport's inauguration, with the offering of residential and entrepreneurial opportunities to serious investors.
The authority has reserved 17.50 per cent exclusively for the farmers who gave their land for the airport's land acquisition. Another 5 per cent is reserved for those who have functioning and industrial units in the area. The remaining 77.50 per cent of the plots are reserved for the general public. This reservation makes the scheme even more attractive for the public, as the units offered are in proximity to the airport, making the land parcels more valuable. For the entrepreneurial investors, this scheme is a chance to establish their businesses in close proximity to the airport.
Adds Mittal: “What’s changed now is the density of the demand drivers. Jewar Airport changes the catchment logic entirely. You’re not buying a plot near an expressway anymore; you’re buying into a future airport city. Layer on what’s being built around it. The UP Film City near Sector 21 is one of the largest studio infrastructure projects the country has seen. That alone anchors a services economy in the zone. Then add the industrial corridors taking shape along the expressway, electronics manufacturing, EV components, logistics parks, and data centres. Companies from Samsung to multiple Fortune 500 logistics players are in advanced conversations for this belt. Projected job creation across airport operations, film city, and the industrial zones runs into several lakh positions over the next decade. That’s not speculative. That’s population pull," adds Mittal.
YEIDA’s planned urbanisation is backed with policy clarity, land availability and development plans made in phases. The authority is positioning the region as a future-ready urban extension in Delhi-NCR.
