Over the last few years, the YEIDA has played a crucial role in shaping the real estate trend east of Noida City in Uttar Pradesh. The primary factor contributing to the rapid development of the area is undoubtedly the construction of the Noida International Airport at Jewar. One of the biggest reasons to put money here is their plot schemes, which have been getting popular day by day with investors and buyers alike. This blog is all about the new plan of YEIDA (2025), giving an idea of what to anticipate in the scheme, along with a brief overview for those who want to apply.
Understanding the YEIDA Plot Scheme
It is a plan by the Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) to facilitate controlled urbanisation in the Yamuna Expressway region of Uttar Pradesh. The city is under construction just south of Greater NOIDA, between the planned intersection of the Eastern Peripheral Expressway and the Yamuna Expressway and the upcoming Jewar Airport.
The place is situated at a very convenient distance of 45 km from Delhi, 14 km from Pari Chowk (in Greater Noida), 110 km from Mathura, and 160 km from Agra. The scheme includes residential, commercial, and industrial plots, allowing for a wide range of investment possibilities. A transparent application process, along with state-of-the-art infrastructure, assures the buyer of long-term growth and easy access.
The Role of Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA)
The YEIDA is a major stakeholder in the development and administration of the area around the Yamuna Expressway. With the aim of planned urban development, land acquisition, and the installation of necessary mega projects, it carries out its functions under the supervision of the Uttar Pradesh government.
The function of YEIDA is instrumental in achieving the goal of social and economic prosperity. This could be made possible by land use coordination between residential, commercial, and industrial activities through urban planning, leading to the district’s redevelopment as a strategic economic hub that has easy access to the business and investment environment.
Types of Plots Offered by YEIDA
YEIDA has three major types of plots targeting various sectors as follows,
- Residential Plots: Such plots specifically meet the construction and housing needs of homebuyers by providing a wide range of different sizes for building their private houses in good quality planned societies.
- Commercial Plots: These plots are full of business opportunities with great exposure and easy accessibility, and are perfect for retail outlets, office spaces, and showrooms to be set up.
- Industrial Plots: As for the manufacturing process and the associated industrial setups, these units are exclusively made available with a wide range of infrastructural facilities to support large production scales and their business operations.
Apart from these, institutional plots are also allotted through the YEIDA Plot Scheme.
The Application and Allotment Process
Checking for Scheme Announcements and Eligibility
One can always keep themselves updated on the news by frequently consulting the official website of YEIDA, where new plot schemes are announced.
Generally, eligibility criteria are as follows,
- Must be an Indian citizen
- Have an age of at least 18 years
- Show proof of being able to meet the required expenses
- Not have been allotted a plot or a flat by YEIDA before
Online Application Procedure
Applicants must register on the official YEIDA portal. Upon logging in, carry out the payment of the application fee of Rs. 500 (excluding GST) via net banking or demand draft. Make an application for the property concerned by filling up a form and indicating the necessary details such as personal information and property-related documents. Apart from this, a registration fee to be able to book the specific type of plot (whose amount depends on the type and size), is required to be paid. After this, present your application along with the required documents, including identity proof, address proof, and passport-sized photographs for processing.
Understanding the Draw or Auction Process
YEIDA employs a transparent manual/ computerised lucky draw system for allotment. The public conduct of the draw, which is at the core of the fairness policy, is usually made live to the audience by broadcasting it on the spot or via the Internet. However, in some situations an auction is held, and thus, the one who offers the highest bid for a plot gets it.
After the first draw, allotment letters are sent to the selected candidates, and the second draw is done for assigning plot numbers. Those applicants who were not successful in the draw will get their registration fee refunded, but no interest will be paid on it.

Location and Future Prospects
Proximity to Jewar Airport and Other Infrastructure
- Strategic Location: YEIDA plots are placed along the Yamuna Expressway, which is about 7 km from the Noida International Airport that is going to be built at Jewar. Such a central location offers users direct access to the expressway, thereby improving connectivity to Delhi NCR as well as faraway places.
- Integrated Transportation Networks: The Ghaziabad–Jewar Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS), which is coming up and is expected to be completed by 2030, will be a high-speed rail line connecting Ghaziabad, Noida, and Jewar Airport. Its integration will allow the quickest way to move throughout the National Capital Region (NCR).
- Comprehensive Urban Development: YEIDA’s Master Plan-2041 is correlated to the establishment of industrial hubs, residential quarters, and commercial zones, which in themselves are fair urban development components and will lead to an increase in the region’s quality of life.
Investment Potential Analysis
- Industrial Growth Catalysts: YEIDA has embarked on the purchase of 5,000 acres for the establishment of Japanese and Korean industrial cities, a fintech hub, and other significant projects in the vicinity of Jewar Airport. The positive outcome of such developments will be the influx of substantial domestic and foreign investments.
- Real Estate Appreciation: Due to its closeness to Jewar Airport as well as ongoing infrastructural developments, the demand for residential and commercial properties in the YEIDA region has gone up, leading to a significant rise in property values.
- Government Initiatives: The active steps of the Uttar Pradesh government, comprising land acquisition and infrastructure development, depict the commitment of the government to the transformation of the YEIDA area into a global investment hub, which in turn raises investor confidence.
Conclusion
To summarise, the YEIDA Plot Scheme is a money-making option for investors as well as property buyers. Being near the upcoming Jewar Airport and supported by sound infrastructure projects, this scheme is expected to fetch substantial returns. The mixture of housing, commerce, institutional and industry plots will result in planned growth of the area. Moreover, the government’s dedication to urban development and transport facilities is like icing on the cake for the region’s investment potential. Hence, we can expect a handsome appreciation of YEIDA plots in a short span.
