DDA Housing Scheme 2024

The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) builds homes for families belonging to all economic groups in the national capital. Once these homes are fully constructed, they are offered up as allotments to people under the various government housing schemes.

The official contact details of the Delhi Development Authority are as follows:

The locations at which the DDA has built residential properties and their approximate prices are as follows:

Only eligible applicants can apply for the DDA Housing Scheme. The eligibility for the same is as follows:

• To be eligible the applicant must be an Indian citizen.

• The applicant must be at least 18 years of age

• You must not own any residential house or plot in full or in part, on leasehold/freehold basis in New Delhi, Delhi or Delhi cantonment, either in your own name or in the name of your wife/husband/minor dependent children. However, the above clause does not apply to the latest DDA Scheme, as Phase IV offers unsold flats in developing areas.

• If the applicant jointly owns a plot or land under the residential house that is less than 66.9 square metres, he/she can apply under any of the schemes.

The following are the documents required when applying for a DDA flat:

• Identity proof such as your PAN card, passport, government Identity Card, Voter’s ID card, Driving License or Aadhaar Card.

• Proof of residence such as Voter’s ID card, Ration card, Driving Licence, Electricity Bill, or other utility bills, House Tax Receipt, or Aadhaar Card.

• Your income tax returns for the previous year.

• Caste and physical disability certificate, if applicable

• Bank account passbook and a duly filled affidavit

The homes that fall under the purview of the DDA housing scheme are allotted through a computerised draw that is based on the lottery technique. The same is held under the supervision of three independent observers. 

After that, the results are posted and made available for everyone to see on the official DDA portal.

One can pay for the flats allotted to them under the DDA housing scheme by generating a challan online and then subsequently making the payment on the official web portal of the DDA.

• The payment can be made through netbanking/NEFT/RTGS in one go

• One can also make the payment by taking up a house loan by mortgaging the flat with DDA-recognised institutions

• Individuals with disabilities can pay through cash by making a down payment first and then pay the balance in instalments

   

Note: The payment should be made within 90 days of the allotment.

DDA conducts a draw every year for the allocation of homes to Delhi residents from all walks of life. It is a computerised process that happens in three stages, namely:

• Randomisation of applicants and flats

• Picking lucky numbers, and

• Mapping of applicants to flats

   

Note: The lucky draw is entirely random in nature; hence, one should always be wary of people who promise assured homes in the lucky draw.

One can check the DDA draw result by following the below-mentioned steps:

• Step 1: Visit the DDA official website

• Step 2: Click on the ‘Draw Result’ section in the top dashboard

• Step 3: Click on the link that reads ‘DDA Flats Draw Result 2024’

• Step 4: Download the draw result document

• Step 5: Take a printout of the same for future reference

One will need to furnish the following documents if they are a successful applicant of the DDA draw:

• A self-attested copy of the PAN card

• Residence proof (self-attested copy of ration card, passport, driving licence, electricity bill, telephone bill, or the like)

• A self-attested copy of the bank passbook and/or bank account statements or a copy of the Income Tax Returns (ITR)

To surrender a DDA flat, one will have to fill up a ‘Cancellation Form’ either online or offline by visiting the DDA office. 

The applicant must submit the following if he/she wants to get their allotment cancelled:

• Cancelled cheque

• Original allotment letter

• Acknowledgement slip

   

One must note that the DDA will charge a penalty on cancellation, which will vary depending upon when the flat is being surrendered.
