The Noida Authority has fixed a uniform allotment rate of ₹86,000 per square metre for IT and IT-enabled services (IT/ITeS) plots across the city. The revised rate replaces the earlier phase-wise pricing structure under which land prices varied significantly depending on the location and development phase.
The new pricing will apply to fresh allotments of land for a range of technology and business operations, including software parks, data centres, knowledge process outsourcing (KPO) units, business process outsourcing (BPO) facilities, call centres and online customer support centres.
Under the previous system, IT/ITeS plots were divided into three phases with different allotment rates. Plots in Phase 1 were priced at ₹77,620 per square metre, while Phase 2 plots were available at ₹39,580 per square metre and Phase 3 plots at ₹27,560 per square metre. The new uniform rate represents a substantial increase over the earlier prices applicable to the lower-priced phases.
According to the Authority, the decision has been taken against the backdrop of limited availability of vacant land in Noida. The city has undergone extensive planned urban and industrial development over several decades, reducing the availability of large parcels for new projects.
Additional CEO Vandana Tripathi said the Authority had reviewed the availability of land before deciding to remove the phase-based categorisation. The revised allotment rates will come into effect from September 2026.
Noida covers around 20,316 hectares and has more than 150 sectors along with over 100 villages. With the available land bank becoming increasingly limited, the Authority expects the revised pricing structure to provide a common benchmark for future IT/ITeS land allotments.
Noida Continues to Attract IT and Corporate Investments
Noida has developed into one of the prominent IT and corporate destinations in the Delhi-NCR region. Sectors 62 and 63 form an established technology cluster, hosting offices and facilities of companies across IT, IT-enabled services and other business segments.
The Noida Expressway corridor has also emerged as an important commercial zone. Sectors including 125, 126, 132, 135, 142 and 144 have witnessed the development of office campuses and corporate facilities.
Improved connectivity has supported the expansion of these commercial areas. The development of Noida International Airport, the dedicated freight corridor and major expressway projects is expected to strengthen connections between Noida and other parts of the National Capital Region as well as other markets.
Officials said some IT/ITeS plots along the expressway corridor are still available. These plots will now be allotted at the revised uniform rate of ₹86,000 per square metre.
Land Costs Rise Amid New Noida Development
The latest IT/ITeS land pricing decision comes at a time when land-related costs in and around Noida are increasing. The Authority recently revised compensation for farmers as part of measures connected with land acquisition for the New Noida project.
The compensation was increased by 53% for the category that includes a 5% developed plot. For the category without a developed plot, the increase was 21%.
The New Noida project is expected to expand the city’s planned development area and create additional opportunities for industrial, commercial and other urban uses. The higher compensation is also aimed at facilitating the land acquisition process.
For IT and ITeS companies, the new uniform rate means that future land allotments will be based on a single pricing structure rather than the earlier phase-wise model. While the change simplifies the allotment framework, the higher rate could also influence land acquisition costs for companies planning large technology campuses, data centres and office developments.
The revision therefore marks a significant change in Noida’s approach to IT/ITeS land allocation as the city manages limited land availability while continuing to position itself as a destination for technology, corporate and commercial investment.
