DDA Housing Scheme: Good news for those dreaming of owning a home in Delhi. The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) has launched affordable flats under the 'Jan Sadharan Awas Yojana 2025 (Phase-2)', with prices starting from just ₹11.8 lakh. This scheme is primarily for people from the Economically Weaker Section (EWS) and Lower Income Group (LIG) categories. Flats will be available in locations such as Narela, Rohini, Ramgarh Colony, and Shivaji Marg. The booking process will begin on November 7, 2025, at 12 PM, on a 'first-come, first-served' basis, requiring a booking amount of ₹50,000 to ₹1 lakh for application.
Affordable Housing Scheme for EWS and LIG Categories
This new DDA scheme is primarily for individuals belonging to the Economically Weaker Section (EWS) and Lower Income Group (LIG). The scheme has been designed keeping in mind families who work in Delhi but have been unable to fulfill their dream of owning a home due to high property prices. Under the scheme, flats have been constructed in areas like Narela, Rohini, Shivaji Marg, and Ramgarh Colony. All these areas are within Delhi's boundaries and are well-connected to public transport and essential amenities.
According to DDA officials, the aim of this scheme is to enable any person working in Delhi, regardless of their limited income, to become a homeowner. This initiative is considered a significant step by the government towards 'affordable housing'.
Flats Starting from Just ₹11.8 Lakh
According to information available on the DDA website, the starting price for flats under this scheme is ₹11.8 lakh. This price can go up to ₹32.7 lakh, depending on the flat's size, location, and construction category. Finding a home at such a low price in an expensive city like the capital is a relief for many.
Flats in the EWS category will be smaller in size but will include all essential amenities such as a kitchen, bathroom, electricity, and water supply. LIG category flats, on the other hand, will offer slightly more space and additional facilities.
The DDA also stated that special attention has been paid to pricing these flats to be affordable for the economically weaker and lower-income groups, enabling them to purchase them with easy home loans from banks.
Flats Available in These Areas
There is often a perception that affordable flats are located far from the city or in underdeveloped areas. However, under this DDA scheme, flats have been constructed in prime locations across Delhi.
For the EWS category, flats will be available in Narela, Rohini, Ramgarh Colony, and Shivaji Marg. For LIG category buyers, flats will be available in Rohini Sector 34 and 35, and Ramgarh Colony near Jahangirpuri.
These locations already have existing facilities such as roads, electricity, water, and public transport. Additionally, markets, schools, and hospitals are nearby. Consequently, this scheme is not only affordable but also practical.
Booking Method and Date
The DDA has kept the booking process for flats under this scheme very simple. Interested individuals can start booking from November 7, 2025. Applications will begin online at 12 PM and will operate entirely on a 'first-come, first-served' basis. This means that the applicant who applies first will get the first opportunity to choose and book a flat.
For booking, EWS category applicants will need to deposit ₹50,000 and LIG category applicants will need to deposit ₹1 lakh as a registration fee. This amount will be part of the application process and will be adjusted upon the completion of the purchase.
Application Process
Interested individuals can apply for this scheme by visiting the official DDA website. After logging in to the website, applicants will need to register in the 'Jan Sadharan Awas Yojana 2025 (Phase-2)' section. Applicants must upload documents according to their income category and submit the registration fee online. Subsequently, they will need to choose their preferred flat from the list of available locations and flats.
Why This Scheme is Special
This DDA scheme is special because it targets individuals who were previously unable to purchase a home in Delhi. By offering flats in the range of ₹11 to ₹32 lakh, the DDA has opened new avenues for the housing sector in the capital.
This scheme will primarily benefit families who are currently living on rent in Delhi and spend a significant amount on rent each month. Now, that same money can be converted into home loan EMIs.
