GREATER NOIDA, Aug. 26 -- An industrial plot scheme offering industrial 42 plots, including five as big as 8,000 square metres (sqms), has left Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (Yeida) officials upbeat with expected interest for the plots after seeing at least 14 investors applying for each plot on an average so far. The authority will allot these plots through e-bidding with the highest bidder getting the plot. Yeida launched the scheme for 5 industrial plots larger than 8,000 sqms and 37 plots smaller than 8,000 sqms in June 2025. The plots will be allotted in areas including sectors 29, 32, and 33. Additionally, a plan for 19 plots for mixed land use in Sector 24A was also introduced. The application process under the scheme has been completed, said officials. "To accelerate industrial activities in the city, continuous communication is being made with entrepreneurs. Efforts are on to open doors of employment in the city within 18 months, and a work plan is being developed for this purpose. We are happy that our scheme of industrial plots has received a good response. Once these plots are allotted,business opportunities and jobs will be created," said Yeida chief executive officer RK Singh. As per the authority, 528 applications have been received for 37 plots smaller than 8,000 sqms, while there have been 75 applications for five larger plots. This means that there are 14 to 15 applicants vying for each plot. Also, 30 applications have also been received for 19 plots meant for mixed land use. It has been stated allocation for plots smaller than 8,000 sqm will be done via e-auction, while larger plots will be allocated through interview, said officials....
