The highest surge of Rs 39,600 per square meter in the prices of residential lands has come in sectors 14, 14A, 15A, 17 and 44, the reply said.

As per official records, residential lands in other sectors are available in the range of Rs 14,400 per square metre to Rs 27,600 per square metre.

Exercising his Right to Information, an RTI activist, Lokesh Batra, has filed an application to the New Okhla Industrial Development Authority (NOIDA) asking it to furnish information on categories for which the authority is selling or allotting lands and regarding the prices of plots as per the record.

The Authority is selling land under five categories, namely Residential Land, Residential Group Housing, Industrial Land, Commercial Land and Institutional Land.

There is a definite procedure for fixing and revising land allotment rates for various sectors.
