NEW DELHI: The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) announced the successful reception of bids for its upcoming high-rise project, ‘DDA Towering Heights’, located in Karkardooma. Officials reported this on Wednesday.
This initiative marks the first housing project created under Delhi’s Transit Oriented Development (TOD) policy.
“Approximately 1,500 bids have been received for the 1,026 two-bedroom flats available. The central location and excellent connectivity options have significantly driven demand,” officials noted.
Situated next to the Karkardooma metro station, this project offers direct access to both the Blue and Pink lines of the Delhi metro, alongside easy connections to National Highway (NH)-9, NH-24, and the Anand Vihar railway and ISBT terminals.
“These multi-storey residential towers form part of the 30-hectare ‘East Delhi Hub’, envisioned as a mixed-use urban district that integrates residential, commercial, and civic spaces within a pedestrian-friendly framework,” officials explained.
The DDA Towering Heights project serves as a central feature of the ‘East Delhi Hub’.
“This hub aims to blend residential neighborhoods with commercial areas, retail spaces, and civic amenities in a highly walkable layout, in line with international urban development trends that prioritize accessibility and reduced reliance on private vehicles,” they added.
The DDA’s Towering Heights, managed by the National Buildings Construction Corporation Limited, is set to become Delhi’s tallest residential building at 155 meters, featuring 48 storeys.
The structure is fully RERA-approved, showcasing a harmonious blend of modern architecture and sustainable design aimed at enhancing livability.
DDA officials stated that interest in the e-auction has exceeded expectations, with registrations surpassing available units. The final date to submit the earnest money deposit (EMD) is November 21.
