Who is the developer of Eco City Phase 1?

The Greater Mohali Area Development Authority (GMADA) is the developer and planning authority. Larsen & Toubro was the contractor for roads, utilities and services, and there is no private builder involved.

Where is Eco City Phase 1 located?

What is the price of plots in Eco City Phase 1?

Plots here trade in the resale market, not at a developer price list. Indicative resale ranges run from about ₹1.5 to ₹1.9 crore for 100 sq yd up to about ₹6.5 to ₹7.1 crore for 500 sq yd, varying by position and road width. Call for current asks.

Can I buy a plot directly from GMADA in Eco City Phase 1?

Most plots were allotted in earlier schemes, so buyers today typically purchase from existing allottees through a resale transfer. Confirm with GMADA whether any unallotted inventory is being offered.

Is Eco City Phase 1 RERA registered?

RERA status should be verified before you pay anything. Some portals say it is registered, but we do not publish a RERA number we have not confirmed. Check the Punjab RERA portal and GMADA records for the exact plot.

How many plots are there in Eco City Phase 1?

The first allotment scheme offered 836 residential plots and drew about 1.6 lakh applications. Official reports put the total residential plots across Phase 1 at roughly 3,000, with most already allotted.

What infrastructure does Eco City Phase 1 have?

Metalled internal roads, underground electricity, piped water supply, storm water drainage and an independent sewerage system. Always verify that the connections for your specific plot are active.

How many floors can I build on a plot in Eco City Phase 1?

Construction up to three floors is permitted on most plots, subject to GMADA building rules for the specific plot category. Check with GMADA for zoning and setback norms before design.

What documents should I check before buying a resale plot?

Verify the original GMADA allotment letter or transfer deed, confirm no dues are pending, check the seller’s ownership record, and commission a fresh site measurement against the approved layout.

Is Eco City Phase 1 the same as Eco City 2 or Eco City 3?

No. They are separate GMADA schemes within New Chandigarh. Phase 1 is delivered and occupied, while later phases are at different stages of development, so prices and legal position differ.

Is Eco City Phase 1 in Mohali or New Chandigarh?

It falls under the New Chandigarh planning area around Mullanpur. Some listings tag it as Mohali because it lies in the wider Mohali district.

Can I get a bank loan for a plot in Eco City Phase 1?

Many banks finance plot purchases and later home construction, subject to clear title and eligibility. Lenders usually ask for GMADA transfer or allotment papers, so keep these ready before applying.

Is Eco City Phase 1 good for investment?

It is a delivered township with a planned layout, parks and limited supply, which has supported resale values. Returns are never guaranteed, so compare current asks with recent comparable deals before committing.

How far is Eco City Phase 1 from PGI Chandigarh?

Roughly 6 km from PGI Chandigarh and Punjab University, with most Tricity destinations about 15 to 20 minutes away in normal traffic.

What are the main risks of buying a resale plot here?

Key risks are unclear transfer paperwork, pending GMADA dues, a mismatch between plot boundaries and the approved layout, and paying inflated asking prices. A document check and price benchmarking reduce these.

What is the difference between an Eco City plot and a private colony flat?

Eco City plots are GMADA land-pooling allotments where you build your own home. Private colonies by developers like Omaxe or DLF sell RERA-registered flats, villas or kothis built by the developer.

Does Eco City Phase 1 have parks and green spaces?

Yes. Official reports state about 183 acres of Phase 1 is kept as open space, with parks developed across the township.
