YEIDA to Launch New Residential Plot Scheme in Sector 5 – Over 2,000 Plots Expected

The Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) is preparing to launch a major residential plot scheme in Sector 5, as part of the Authority’s long-term Master Plan. The sector, earlier earmarked for industrial use, has now been reclassified for residential development to meet the growing housing demand near the upcoming Noida International Airport (Jewar).

Scheme Overview

According to initial reports, the scheme is expected to feature over 2,200 residential plots, though official details regarding plot sizes, pricing, and eligibility are yet to be announced.
Sources close to the Authority indicate that if the launch takes place before March 2026, the reserve price may remain around ₹35,000 per sq.m, similar to YEIDA’s recent residential offerings.

The plots are likely to be allotted through a draw-based system, unlike the e-auction model currently being used for commercial and industrial properties.

Strategic Location

Sector 5 is located strategically behind Sectors 32 and 33, adjacent to major industrial and logistics zones. The area benefits from proximity to landmark developments such as the Noida International Airport, Film City, Olympic City, and upcoming Metro connectivity, making it one of the most promising investment corridors in the NCR region.

The sector layout is being planned with wide internal roads, modern utilities, larger green zones, and public amenities to ensure sustainable and well-organized growth.

High Demand Expected

In recent years, YEIDA’s residential schemes in Sectors 18, 20, 24A, and 189B have received overwhelming response, with more than 50,000 applications submitted for limited plots.
The upcoming Sector 5 scheme is expected to witness similar enthusiasm, especially from end-users and investors seeking affordable residential options near Jewar.

Transparency and Allotment

YEIDA officials have emphasized that the new scheme will prioritize transparent allotment, timely possession, and simplified documentation, addressing challenges faced in older schemes like the 2009 residential allotment.
Applicants will be able to apply online through the official website once the notification and brochure are released.

Expert View

Property consultants describe the Sector 5 launch as one of the last major draw-based residential opportunities in the Yamuna Expressway region before YEIDA transitions fully to e-auctions.
Given the ongoing infrastructure push, experts believe land appreciation potential remains strong, with steady growth projected over the next three to five years.
