Application Deadline Extended for DDA Housing Scheme

The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) has extended the application deadline for the current housing scheme to March 10, 2022, in response to public demand and the ongoing pandemic.

Overview of the Housing Scheme

The DDA’s special housing scheme encompasses over 18,000 homes, and the entire application process, from submission to allotment, is conducted online. The scheme was initially launched on December 24, 2021, with an original application deadline of February 7, 2022.

Categories of Apartments

The scheme offers apartments in four categories:

  • Economically Weak Section (EWS) or Janta Apartments
  • Lowest Income Group (LIG)
  • Middle Income Group (MIG)
  • High Income Group (HIG)

These apartments are located in areas such as Dwarka, Rohini, Narela, Jasol, and others.

Details of the Flats

The flats available under this special scheme are drawn from the DDA’s older inventory or those returned by previous auction allottees. According to the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA), most unsold DDA flats are situated in the new district of Narela.

  • 205 HIG flats
  • 976 MIG flats
