Over 18,335 flats of different types in Rohini, Narela, Dwarka, and Jasola, including other places, were proposed under the DDA Special Housing Scheme 2021.

These flats were those which remained unsold in the urban body's last housing schemes.

The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) announced the scheme through a newspaper advertisement that said the flats are up for sale at a discounted price.

According to the DDA brochure, the maximum price of a flat is nearly Rs 2.14 crore in the high-income group (HIG) category in Jasola.

The list includes 205 HIG flats, 976 MIG flats, 11,452 low-income group (LIG) flats and 5,702 flats under the economic weaker section (EWS) or Janta flats category.

The flats by the DDA are provided with necessary services such as electricity, water and sewage disposal, apart from other infrastructural required facilities.
