DDA Housing Scheme 2026: The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) is preparing another major housing launch for the festive season, with reports indicating that more than 4,000 flats could be offered around Dussehra and Diwali 2026.
The proposed housing programme is expected to include 1 BHK, 2 BHK and 3 BHK flats, with Narela likely to account for a significant portion of the inventory. However, the DDA has not yet released the final notification confirming the launch date, number of flats, prices, locations or application conditions.
The proposed launch comes as the authority continues to sell flats under its existing DDA Karmayogi Awaas Yojana 2025 and DDA Nagrik Awaas Yojana 2026.
According to reports published in September 2026, the DDA is working on a new festive-season housing programme that could bring more than 4,000 residential flats to the market.
The proposed scheme is expected around October-November 2026, covering the Dussehra-Diwali period. 1 BHK, 2 BHK and 3 BHK homes are expected to form part of the proposed inventory.
The authority may also deploy nodal officers to help applicants with information and the booking process.
At present, these details should be treated as proposed, rather than confirmed scheme terms. The DDA's official housing pages have not yet published a launch circular containing the complete inventory and pricing for this reported festive scheme.

Narela has remained an important location in DDA's recent housing programmes.
The authority has added flats to the Nagrik Awaas Yojana 2026 in Narela and has also offered dedicated housing inventory for eligible government employees under the Karmayogi Awaas Yojana.
DDA's official records show that 1,287 additional flats were added to the Nagrik Awaas Yojana 2026 in Pockets 3 and 4, Sector A1-A4, Narela in August 2026.
The authority also announced additional 544 flats under the Karmajeevi Awaas Yojana in September.
This makes Narela an important area to watch when the proposed festive housing scheme is formally announced.
The proposed festive scheme should not be confused with the DDA Nagrik Awaas Yojana 2026, which is already an ongoing housing programme.
Under the original Nagrik Awaas Yojana notification, DDA offered flats in Narela and Siraspur at a flat 25% discount. The original launch covered 1,301 flats in Narela across HIG, MIG, LIG and EWS categories, along with 411 LIG flats in Siraspur.
DDA subsequently added further inventory to the scheme. Its official records also show an addition of 1,944 LIG flats in March 2026 and a later addition of 1,287 flats in Narela.
The scheme follows a first-come, first-served (FCFS) model for the relevant inventory.
The original DDA notification included different categories of flats in Narela.
For example, the official price schedule after the 25% discount listed:
These figures relate to the inventory and price schedule notified under the existing Nagrik Awaas Yojana and should not be treated as prices for the proposed 4,000-plus festive scheme.
The DDA Karmayogi Awaas Yojana 2025 is a separate programme aimed at eligible serving and retired government employees and certain other government-linked categories.
The DDA's current online portal shows the scheme covering flats in Narela, including inventory in Pocket 13, Sector A1-A4, for serving and retired government employees.
The scheme has also included 1 BHK, 2 BHK and 3 BHK flats, with DDA offering the relevant inventory through its FCFS process.
The authority extended the booking deadline for the Karmayogi Awaas Yojana up to September 30, 2026. The Nagrik Awaas Yojana was also extended up to the same date.
Reports have suggested that the DDA could extend the booking period of the existing Karmayogi Awaas Yojana and Nagrik Awaas Yojana by about one month.
However, applicants should distinguish between a reported possibility and an officially notified extension.
As of the latest DDA housing updates checked for this article, the authority's official website records the current extension of both schemes up to September 30, 2026.
Therefore, buyers should rely on a fresh DDA circular before assuming that the deadline has been extended beyond September 30.
For an ongoing DDA housing scheme, applicants should use the official DDA housing/e-services portal and follow the eligibility, registration, payment and documentation requirements specified in the relevant scheme brochure.
For the proposed 4,000-plus festive housing scheme, the application process has not yet been officially announced.
Once DDA releases the final notification, applicants should check:
The reported timeline points to the Dussehra-Diwali festive period, broadly covering October and November 2026.
However, the exact launch date has not been confirmed through a final DDA housing notification.
The authority's official website is currently publishing multiple housing-related announcements, including the DDA Janta Awaas Yojana Phase II 2026, additional flats under existing schemes and other housing circulars.
Therefore, prospective buyers should wait for the official notification before paying any registration or booking amount for the proposed new scheme.
The proposed festive launch could become another significant addition to DDA's 2026 housing activity, particularly because the reported inventory is expected to cross 4,000 flats.
However, the most important details for buyers — including exact locations, number of flats in each category, prices, booking amount, eligibility and launch date — are still awaited.
Until DDA publishes the final scheme notification, the 4,000-plus figure and October-November timeline should be treated as reported plans rather than confirmed booking details.
For the latest official updates, applicants should check the DDA's housing circulars and official e-services portal rather than relying on third-party booking links.
