Applicants may apply in joint names, but they must not already own a residential plot allotted by YEIDA. The authority has the right to cancel allotment if any false information is found, rules are violated, or payments are not made on time. In such cases, deposits may be forfeited.

For withdrawal, applicants can exit before the draw and get a full refund without interest, though a processing deduction of about Rs 10,000 may apply. If withdrawal is done after allotment but before lease execution, around 10 percent of the plot cost may be deducted. If a buyer withdraws after lease execution, the authority can deduct up to 30 percent of the total premium and refund the remaining amount without interest.

Application and Registration Process

Applications can be submitted online through the YEIDA website, and offline applications are not accepted. Buyers must first register and pay a registration fee based on the plot size, which starts from around Rs 7 lakh for smaller plots and goes above Rs 12 lakh for bigger plots. Applicants can also get the form by paying Rs 600 online.

Payment Process and Financing Option

The full premium amount, including the registration money, must be paid within 60 days of allotment. GST will be extra, and payments can only be made online through the authority's portal. Buyers interested in the YEIDA residential plot scheme can also opt for bank financing to arrange funds. Several leading banks have been empanelled to provide loan support for the scheme.

Documentation and Other Charges

Apart from the plot cost, buyers should also factor in documentation and legal expenses, including stamp duty, lease deed charges, and other registration expenses, which will have to be paid separately by the allottee. These charges are applicable at the time of executing the lease deed and are not included in the plot premium. Any future charges imposed by the authority or government will also have to be borne by the buyer.

The authority has clarified that banks may finance up to about 90 percent of the registration amount, making it easier for buyers to participate in the scheme without arranging the full upfront amount on their own. With infrastructure growth and proximity to the airport, the scheme is expected to attract both homebuyers and investors looking for long-term gains.
