The reserve price for the commercial land parcels has been fixed at Rs 90,821 per square metre. The cumulative price of these 12 commercial plots at the reserve price is approximately Rs 1,014 crore.

According to the scheme document, applicants will have to deposit 10 percent of the reserved price of the plot as registration money or earnest fee. There will be two payment plans for successful bidders. They can either pay the entire amount within 90 days from the date of issue of the allotment letter, where they will also get a 2 percent rebate on the entire value, or they can choose to pay 40 percent of the amount within 60 days from the date of issue of the allotment letter. The rest can be paid in three years in six equal half-yearly instalments.

FAR 4 plots

According to the broacher of the scheme, these commercial plots will have an FAR (floor area ratio) of 4 while earlier the maximum FAR allowed was 3.75.

FAR is the ratio between a building’s total constructed floor area and the land area. A higher FAR means that the builder can construct more floors and have additional space for commercial activities in their projects.

Officials said that with a FAR of 4, the allottee can build 400 percent of the total plot area. With this move, more high rise commercial buildings can now be built in Greater Noida region.
