Around INR 8,000 crore has been allocated for acquiring land to develop industrial and urban clusters, while additional provisions cover infrastructure in Yamuna City, airport-related works, and multi-modal connectivity. The authority has also approved a marginal increase in plot allotment rates across residential, commercial and group housing categories. The budget reflects a focus on accelerating development in the expressway corridor amid rising investor interest linked to the airport and associated economic activity.
The Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) has approved a budget of INR 11,829 crore for the financial year 2026-27 in the past week, with a significant portion directed towards land acquisition and infrastructure development around the upcoming Noida International Airport in Uttar Pradesh. The decision was taken at the authority's 89th board meeting chaired by senior officials, as part of efforts to prepare the region for large-scale urban and industrial expansion. Advertisement
Of the total outlay, approximately INR 8,000 crore has been earmarked for land acquisition to facilitate the development of a planned industrial and urban ecosystem near the airport. The authority indicated that the acquisition is intended to secure parcels for multiple uses, including industrial units, data centres, manufacturing clusters, educational institutions and residential townships. This allocation forms the largest component of the annual budget, reflecting the increasing importance of land availability in meeting projected demand.
In addition to land procurement, INR 2,011 crore has been allocated for construction and development works in Yamuna City, while INR 502 crore has been set aside for airport-related infrastructure. A further INR 300 crore will be used for multi-modal connectivity projects aimed at improving access between the expressway corridor and surrounding regions. These provisions are expected to support ongoing and proposed infrastructure initiatives linked to the airport's operationalisation.
The board also approved a 3.6 per cent increase in plot allotment rates across categories, effective from the start of the new financial year. Residential plot rates will rise from INR 35,000 to INR 36,260 per sqm, while commercial plot rates will increase from INR 70,000 to INR 72,510 per sqm. Group housing and residential township plot rates have also been revised upward in line with the updated pricing framework.
Officials stated that the budget allocation aligns with growing investor interest in the Yamuna Expressway region, particularly with the airport expected to commence operations shortly. The authority is preparing to accommodate increased demand for industrial and logistics infrastructure, as well as residential developments driven by improved connectivity and economic activity.
Additional allocations include INR 705 crore for loan repayments, along with smaller provisions for administrative expenses and refunds to allottees. The board also cleared proposals to set up a traffic park-cum-training centre in collaboration with a corporate partner, with land to be provided by the authority.
The approved budget reflects a continuation of YEIDA's focus on land-led development, with the authority seeking to consolidate land banks and advance infrastructure planning in anticipation of long-term growth along the Yamuna Expressway corridor.
