Sector Analysis: Connectivity and Growth Potential

The RPS-10 scheme distributes inventory across three strategic sectors, each offering unique advantages for long-term appreciation.

1. Sector 18: Known as an “established” zone, this sector already features existing infrastructure and previous residential allotments. It is the preferred choice for those looking for a more mature neighborhood.

2. Sector 24A: Situated in close proximity to the International Film City and the primary approach roads to the Noida International Airport. This sector is expected to see the highest commercial spillover.

3. Sector 15C: Positioned near planned institutional and hospitality clusters, this sector is geared toward professionals and those seeking a modern, planned urban environment.

The “Airport Effect” on Regional Real Estate

The launch of RPS-10 comes as the Noida International Airport at Jewar enters its final phase of testing and operational readiness. As reported in our analysis of infrastructure expansion in the NCR, residential demand in this corridor has outpaced supply for three consecutive quarters.

Furthermore, the surge in commercial leasing and GCC interest in nearby hubs ensures that these residential plots will be supported by strong employment drivers in the technology and aviation sectors.

Latest Updates: Revised Pricing and Updated Timelines

Recent reports from Zee Business and other industry experts indicate that the market response has already been overwhelming. According to the latest notification, the authority has confirmed the application start date as April 6, 2026, with the window remaining open until May 6, 2026.

A critical update for applicants is the clarification on the revised allotment rate, which is now officially listed at ₹36,260 per square metre. This adjustment brings the starting price for the smallest 162 sqm plots to approximately ₹58.74 Lakh, reflecting the surging land value following the airport’s inauguration. Additionally, the computerized draw is now tentatively rescheduled for June 18, 2026, to expedite the allotment process for successful bidders.
