DDA Allows Amalgamation of Flats in FCFS Housing Scheme, Offering Increased Flexibility to Applicants

NEW DELHI: The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) has announced that applicants in the recently launched first-come, first-serve (FCFS) housing scheme can now merge two adjacent flats.

This move aims to provide applicants with the flexibility to expand the size of their flats, according to officials on Sunday. The DDA introduced the housing scheme on Friday, offering a total of 5,500 flats across different categories in various locations throughout Delhi.

The housing scheme has garnered a positive response from the general public, with approximately 4,000 registrations received thus far, as stated by officials.

A senior official confirmed that the DDA has permitted the amalgamation of two flats offered under the ongoing scheme, granting applicants the freedom to increase the size of their flats. The DDA’s statement clarified that if an applicant purchases two adjacent flats from the FCFS phase-IV scheme, they will be allowed to merge the two units by creating a common door through a shared wall, subject to obtaining necessary structural approvals. This provision applies to all localities and types of flats.

Furthermore, the DDA highlighted that if an applicant already owns a flat from a previous scheme and subsequently purchases an adjacent flat, they will also be eligible for amalgamation.

The housing scheme offers 1-BHK flats in Narela, Siraspur, Rohini, and Loknayak Puram, 2-BHK flats in Narela and Dwarka, and 3-BHK flats in Jasola.
