Delhi: 15,000 flats to be on offer in DDA’s new scheme next month
NEW DELHI: The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) is all set to launch a new housing scheme
next month and on offer would be around 15,000 flats, sources said.
The proposal to launch the housing scheme would be brought before the authority at its
meeting, expected to be chaired by LG Anil Baijal this week.
DDA launched a housing scheme earlier this year and the flats that it plans to offer in December
would be the ones that were surrendered during its previous housing schemes. Sources said
that flats are available in locations like Vasant Kunj, Dwarka, Jasola and Narela, but a bulk of
them would be one-bedroom flats or those for economically weaker sections. The flats would
include those that were surrendered in previous schemes in 2019 and 2014, apart from the
2021 scheme.
There are a large number of DDA flats that are in different stages of construction, including
premium three-bedroom flats and penthouses in Dwarka, but these would not be offered in the
upcoming scheme. Sources said that DDA wants to offer the upcoming flats only when the real
estate sector witnesses better growth in the near future.
DDA’s previous housing scheme was launched on January 2, 2021, and saw 22,752
applications for the 1,354 flats on offer. The draw of lots for the scheme was held on March 10
for the 253 mostly three-bedroom flats, 757 two-bedroom flats, 52 one-bedroom flats and 291
EWS/Janta flats in areas like Dwarka, Jasola and Vasant Kunj.
Even though DDA had carefully chosen clusters in ‘sought-after’ locations for the housing
scheme in January, a large number of the 1,354 flats were returned and put up for draw again.
However, the handing over of the most sought after of these all – 348 middle-income group
(MIG) in Dwarka’s Sector 16-B costing Rs 1.2 crore each – had got delayed as finishing work on
them was still on.
While the draw of lots was conducted in March this year, DDA later conducted a smaller draw of
lots of applicants who were earlier kept on a wait list. DDA had requested all the wait-listed
applicants to deposit a registration amount as per their preferences in the application form
of DDA Housing Scheme 2021 by June 30 through the DDA website. Wait-listed applicants who
failed to deposit the requisite registration amount were not considered for the mini draw of lots
for allotment of flats.
